Personally I’d be more concerned with this…
"SHIPPING IS ONLY WITH PRIOR ARRANGEMENT WITH AUCTION COMPANY ON SMALL ITEMS. 
PLEASE CALL 814-341-”

(Note, I blanked out part of the phone number).

With that, this might be a good deal for someone that can pick it up locally.

Depends on perspective I guess.. some folks swear at it; some swear by 
it.   There tends to be fewer watchers and the fees aren't hidden but in 
the end, it's still an auction and you have to play by their rule to bid.

Those are standard auction terms.

It may not explicitly show a buyer's premium or CC surcharge, but you pay for 
those things anyway, via increased prices charged by the seller.  And you don't 
get a warranty; the most you may get is protection against non-delivery of the 
promised item, which in fact you get with any credit card purchase.
