We are putting them up in 8 different lots. Check them all out. Up for auction is EIGHT 14K Solid Gold service pins given by the DuPont Corporation. All are pinback style and each measures approx. 3/4" wide and are signed 14K on the back. Wonderful!! For those not familiar with DuPont, here is some information for you from off Wikipedia: E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company is an American chemical company that was founded in July 1802 as a gunpowder mill by Eleuthère Irénée du Pont. DuPont is currently the world's second largest chemical company (behind BASF) in terms of market capitalization and fourth (behind BASF, Dow Chemical and Ineos) in revenue. Its stock price is also a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. In the twentieth century, DuPont led the polymer revolution by developing many highly successful materials such as Vespel, neoprene, nylon, Corian, Teflon, Mylar, Kevlar, Zemdrain, M5 fiber, Nomex, Tyvek and Lycra. DuPont has also been significantly involved in the refrigerant industry, developing and producing the Freon (CFCs) series and later, more environmentally friendly refrigerants. In the paint and pigment industry, it has created synthetic pigments and paints, such as ChromaFlair. DuPont is widely known for its sponsorship of NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon and his Hendrick Motorsports #24 Chevrolet Impala SS. DuPont has been sponsoring Jeff Gordon since he began in Sprint Cup (then Winston Cup) in 1992. DuPont has said this about their sponsorship: Our sponsorship of Jeff Gordon helps keep DuPont brands and products in the public eye. Branding is a key component of the DuPont knowledge intensity strategy for achieving sustainable growth. In 2008, DuPont, Jeff Gordon, and Hendrick Motorsports celebrated their 16th season together. It is currently the longest driver/sponsor/owner combination in NASCAR. Estimated shipping weight, (packaged) is 7 oz in a padded envelope.

YES, it was shipped in a timely manner!) Back when we last could count repeat buyers, (the changed feedback does not allow that anymore.) we had OVER 4,103 REPEAT CUSTOMERS!!!(They must know something.)(Maybe they have fun here.)SO YOU CAN BIDWITH CONFIDENCE!!Please note: We put up a very ecclectic collectionof items and are not experts in every area,so descriptions are our best guess as to what something is.While we try to research each item to the best of our ability,it is the buyer's responsibility to know what they are buying.TERMS OF SERVICEEBAY is ALL we do for a living, husband and wife (Norb & Marie) working together, while we home school our kids on our farmette in Rural Delmarva. We have worked very hard to build our little business and it is very important to us. We try and do business the old fashioned way and have a rather simple outlook.Treat all of your customers as if they are family.Be courteous, answer emails, be fair in all your deallings and try and make friends of each and every customer.BUT... with eBay's new star rating and the rate increases in the U.S. Postal rates we needed to define and explain our methods of business. ONE - Who We Deal WithWe sell and ship world wide to anywhere, so please email us for a quote to wherever you happen to be. TWO - Shipping ChargesWe charge shipping based on the USPS system, we will sometimes ship via courier if we can get it to you within the same time frame or faster. We add a reasonable cost for materials, normally that is $2.00. For small flat items $1.00. That covers the expense of boxes, envelopes, bubble wrap, peanuts, (We only use new packing materials, life is too short to scrounge through dumpsters). For larger items that take a larger more expensive box, we charge a little more, to cover the special box, example paintings or lamps. For oversized items or items that will take special attention to package, (Build a crate, wrap a zillion things individually, etc.), we ask you to email us for a quote on shipping prior to the auction ending. If you do not, we charge the same amount as if you did. In other words WE NEVER GOUGE SHIPPING COSTS!! TWO POINT ONE - International ShippingWe charge shipping based on the USPS international system. The rates follow the same guidelines as number two above, though for international customers we add an additional $1.00 to cover the extra paperwork involved in international shipping. If an amount goes over $50 in value we will only ship it with Priority or Express Mail, regardless how small an item. That allows for us to have international tracking. There is no tracking available on First Class Mail. TWO POINT TWO - InsuranceWe require insurance on any item that goes over $27.00 in value. Because eBay does not have a way of kicking in insurance when it reaches a certain level, we have to put down that insurance is required on all purchases. This is reflected in the shipping quoted. (eBay's calculator adds insurance into what you see on the site.) BUT... if an item ends under $27.00 we change the invoice insurance area to "Optional" and leave the choice up to you. THREE - Methods of Payment AcceptedWe accept Paypal, Checks, Cashier Checks, Money Orders. We also take Credit Cards Directly over the phone, (MC, VISA, DISCOVER) For American Express, you must use Paypal. Bottom line, whatever method is most convenient for you. FOUR - Time Frame To PayWe ask all auctions to be paid for in the fastest possible time frame. (This is all we do for a living and we need the money to pay the bills and buy more unique and fun items to put up on eBay) FIVE - Shipping Time FrameWe make every effort to ship in a timely manner. We are home schooling the boys, listing tons of items, and as like any of us are just plain swamped, so we have to schedule a special time to pack and ship. We ship on a first paid, first shipped basis. (We do not ship any item until it has been paid and the funds have cleared.) With the ebb and flow of payments we manage to get everything out of the door within one week. If there is a rush, we will make every effort to work with you in getting it out of the door faster. As you can see from our feedback, we do not disappoint. OF COURSE, items that need special attention, crating, etc adds to the time frame of those items. SIX - CommunicationPlease feel free to contact us at anytime, with any question or comment. Unless we are out of town we make an effort to answer all emails as quickly as possible. We accept MC, Visa, and Discover via phone or dual e-mail or PAYPAL!!We also accept personal checks, cashiers checks, money orders.TO PAY WITH AMEX (American Express) PLEASE GO TO PAYPAL, THEY WILL TAKE IT FOR US!YES, BUYER PAYS SHIPPING DESPITE WHAT EBAY'S PAGE SAYS BENEATH THIS DESCRIPTION.We estimate shipping weight & packaging materialsand e-mail winning bidder shipping costs at auction end.We package well, as our feedback attests.We use NEW boxes and shipping materials, bubbles, peanuts & envelopes.To get an estimate to your zipcode, e-mail us for a quote BEFORE the auction is over.Please Click to See Our Other Auctions.One last note: Thank you!!
