Chicago World\'s Fair 1933 Century of Progress Official\'s badge AAU Soldier Field:
$954.09
Relisted due to a non-paying buyer. Incredibly rare Official\'s pin / ribbon / badge for the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States Championship held at Soldier Field stadium in Chicago in 1933 at the Century of Progress World\'s Fair. Manufacturing stamp on back reads Dieges & Clust. About 3 1/2\" including badge, ribbon and pinback. I have researched this extensively online and they just don\'t exist. The only other example I\'ve found is in the museum of the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. Excellent condition as shown. Not much more I can say about this rarer than most all of the rest artifacts from this World\'s Fair. Photos do it justice. I have some of the rarest and hardest to find World\'s Fair items - nobody else has these. See my other listings. THIS WILL SHIP FULLY INSURED AT MY COST TO YOU.

See my other items, it\'s all gotta go!!!

Everything else will go through the 24 hour kiosk so I can ship at any time. Please don\'t ding my stars for USPS shipping times, I am not them. I want to be able to continue offering great items like this to all of you!
Please use the shipping calculator to price shipping to your area if it is not marked with a fixed rate. Some more expensive items that should have insurance on them may have insurance included in the purchase price. Please see sale details to see if any of this applies to this sale. Please view my other sales to see other items that may interest you that can ship together to save shipping costs. Google \'paypal lost my money\' and see how many people have been burned by them, you should know the risks! My response says it all - I have over 1000 non-Pypal positive transactions including many repeat buyers. Payment by Paypal unless... you know the rules, you must ask me. Payment in US dollars only. Payment by foreign currency will be returned and negative response left. Buyer pays actual shipping costs as described in listing or by quote if not. - I sell a lot of of items besides car parts! Read the details in the listing, the title is 55 characters and not long enough to be the full description!
Ask questions and request more photos if you\'re unsure! Please, really, I mean it.
Refunds on undamaged items only and only with good reason. \"I changed my mind\" is not a good reason.
\"The part doesn\'t fit\" is not a valid reason - did you read the description?
Buy the right part for your car. I know AMC, not the other makes. You know your car and its parts much better than I do.
If I misrepresented an item that is a good reason - if I state conclusively that the piece is exactly for this car. If I\'m not sure I will say that, and ask you to be the judge.
I will not refund shipping costs on a return IF I agree to a return and it is your responsibility to pay the shipping to return an item to me.
Most items ship USPS
Shipping damage claims should be directed to the shipping company, not me.

You are getting the item in the photo, I don\'t use \'s stock photos (and even if a listing has an stock photo, I still include my own picture of the item).So there ya go. Pretty straightforward, no nonsense, real-world terms. I\'m pretty easy to get along with. Now for the fine print:
Please take the time to read my new and improved (and shorter) selling policies. This is to prevent misunderstandings between purchasers and myself, and is in everyone\'s best interests to fully understand:
Return Policy/ Warranty Disclaimer: All items are sold as is with no warranties expressed or implied. Descriptions of items and condition are based on physical inspection at or prior to sale listing. Items which state a level of functionality at time of listing does not extend any guarantee of same operation or functionality upon receipt due to the possibility of shipping damage (but if I say something is functional then it means I did check it before listing - I don\'t sell junk as jewels). Every item I list has a minimum of one picture and buyers can request additional photos, closeups, details, etc. at any time via e-mail. Additional information requested through e-mail will also be posted to the sale if it pertains to the saleability, or lack thereof, or corrected application, of the item. Requests for returns must have a reasonable valid explanation to be honored, otherwise all sales are final.
Shipping/ Damage Policy:I try to determine the most cost effective shipping on an item between UPS and USPS and offer shipping accordingly. Buyer pays stated or actual shipping costs via USPS or UPS ground, 50 state U.S. and Canada sales only unless as noted. Stated shipping costs may include a materials fee - bubble envelopes, packing peanuts, and the daily news does cost money! Some items may require specialized packaging - for those I state additional packaging costs in the sale listing. You wouldn\'t want your oil painting on canvas to ship in a brown paper wrapper, would you? If you are outside the USA /Canada please contact me first before offerding. Depending on the item I may agree to ship to your location with payment in US dollars. I WILL NOT DECLARE AN ITEM LESS THAN THE ACTUAL SELLING PRICE OF THE ITEM FOR CUSTOMS PURPOSES ON INTERNATIONAL SALES. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO DO SO, THAT IS ILLEGAL AND GROUNDS FOR CANCELLATION OF YOUR offer. It appears that USPS got sloppy this last holiday season and created some headaches for me, so - If an item is received damaged through shipping you should begin a claim through the shipping service if the item was shipped UPS for under $100 value - their insurance is automatic. If I have a package returned here damaged I will inform you of the situation and attempt to claim a refund of the shipping costs. If I can get a refund of the shipping cost I will refund you your full amount. If I cannot get a refund on the shipping I can only refund you the purchase price of the item. Poor response/Zero response Policy:I welcome new ers to my sales! After all, we all had zero response once. But, I\'ve been burned a few times by ghost buyers that disappear after the sale end, so on any item that exceeds $250 from opening offer or from offer escalation, I reserve the right to request your contact information through services. I may also refuse offers from buyers with poor response ratings, or buyers that I have had negative prior dealings with, at any time for any sale at any price. Legitimate buyers are welcome!Shipping Policy: Please, if you want confirmation that I have recieved payment add delivery confirmation to your payment and NOT anything signature required. My town\'s post office is extremely busy and not the most efficient place in the world and it\'s so slow I go to the next town over to do my shipping. I can\'t do that for a signature required so I have to wait it out over there. Thanks! INVLOC BRNCAB
