To secure any item listed for sale, or for more information, please call or email using the form on this page. The voice-mail or email with the earliest time stamp will secure the item and you will receive a prompt and personal reply with shipping cost and delivery options. I considered setting up a "shopping cart" – and may do so in the future. Right now I prefer to stick with old fashioned personal communication.
Payment by Paypal (which allows use of all major credit cards), Personal Cheque, Postal Money Order or Direct Bank Transfer are all accepted. Let me know your preference and I will send you the appropriate invoice.

Guarantee
All items listed for sale on this web site are guaranteed original unless stated otherwise. A money back guarantee is offered on all items, subject to the terms below.
Terms of Business
Should you be unhappy with any item purchased, please contact vintageflyinghelmets.com by email within 7 days of receipt of the item. The item may then be returned, in the same condition as sent, for a full refund of the purchase price. After 7 days, all sales will be considered final. Postage costs are not refundable.
Refunds cannot be made for items purchased in error, such as incorrect translation of the text of this website to another language, clothing items which do not fit, or items bought on behalf of a third party. Items that are damaged or have been disassembled or tampered with after purchase will not be accepted for a refund.
Items are sold for collector's display purposes only and not intended for actual wear or use. The fit of any clothing, footwear or headgear or its suitability for being worn is not implied or guaranteed. Under no circumstances will refunds be given for clothing items which do not fit. All items are sold as collectibles only - not as wearable clothing. I will always do my best to give accurate sizes if required, but I am not a tailor, and sizes differ from what they were 80+ years ago. Materials are also subject to the stresses of aging, and while the item may appear unworn, unissued or in pristine condition, there is no guarantee regarding the durability of an item if the buyer choose to wear it for any reason whatsoever.
It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure that items purchased may be legally imported into your country. Any item returned due to importation laws may still qualify for a refund provided the above conditions are met, however, any return postage and import costs incurred by vintageflyinghelmets.com will be deducted from the amount of the refund.
Returned items paid for via Paypal will be refunded via Paypal.
Details, prices and descriptions of items offered for sale on this website are correct and current to the best of our ability but are subject to change without prior notice.
No contract exists between vintageflyinghelmets.com and the buyer until payment in full has been received and the item(s) despatched. Initial acknowledgment of your order does not constitute acceptance of that order. Should your order not be accepted for any reason, you will be notified by email and any payment received will be refunded.
Consignment Sales:
Items may be offered on consignment from third party sellers known to us. The same purchasing terms apply to buyers of consignment items. Sales of items on consignment will be subject to a consignment fee of 20%. Any bank charges such as credit card or Paypal fees will be subtracted from the sales total before commission. Consignment items may be removed from the website after 90 days if no interest is shown or seller may be asked to reduce the price. Items must be in hand (no direct third party sales). Consignments will be paid no later than 30 days after payment has cleared the bank and the sale is considered final. If you have any items you would like considered for consignment to this website, please email.
Shipping and Insurance
Items will be shipped worldwide via reliable delivery services, but items are sent entirely at the customer's own risk. Items will be well packed to prevent damage, and all applicable despatch documents will be obtained, but in the event of a parcel being lost in transit, vintageflyinghelmets.com will not be held liable. Full insurance against loss or damage is strongly recommended. Any claims for insurance compensation will be the responsibility of the buyer. Any import duties and taxes are the responsibility of the buyer.
