The pictures provided both complement and supplement the listing description, so please look at them very closely as well. With old items, there is no way one can capture all the little imperfections in words, so the two media are meant to be the full description. The clock is too delicate and heavy for shipping safely via normal shipping options, so this clock is for local pick-up in Georgetown, DE. We can arrange for a packing shipping quote from a couple of carriers we regularly use. A lot of our customers also use UShip or a company like Antiques Express that do blanket shipping (I would pack out the inside of the clock in this situation, rest would be your carrier's responsibility) You need to understand that a blanket ship company can take 6-8 weeks to deliver an item. We will also offer to deliver the clock within 250 miles of Georgetown, DE one way. Price would be $.70 per mile for the round trip delivery plus any tolls/parking fees.

Same additional charges would apply to a pick-up.As can be expected when dealing with a vintage clock, some adjustments may be needed after shipping to get the clock re-running correctly again as they can be very delicate. If you have not had experience with old mechanical clocks before, I would suggest you steer clear. One really needs to have the patience, and skill to work with these great works of art.
