Before making plans for local payment and/or pickup please contacts us with your intent. Arrangements will need to be made for a day (and if possible a general time) for pickup as items are not always available for immediate pickup. Unfortunately, local delivery is not offered unless otherwise specified in the item description.

Local pickup is available for no extra charge, and can be paid for locally with:

Cash, Check, Money Order, Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover or Cashiers Check.

We do accept local personal checks with proper identification, and information on items priced under $500.00.

Please make Check or Money Orders out to "Michigan State University".

If you have tax exemption status or a resellers certification please remember to bring proof of status to the store when you pick up your purchase. If you do not have either of these you will be charged State of Michigan Sales Tax (6%) on your purchase.

If you would like to pay for your purchase on-line or, please contact us indicating your desire to do so. After we have received your request we will then send you an updated invoice with the updated shipping costs (in most cases removed) before you make your payment. You can make your payment via PayPal, in-store at the time of pickup, or through the mail. We will not release the item before payment has been received and confirmed. 

For items were local pickup only is designated, we have staffing and equipment (pallet jacks, lifts, forklifts, ect.) to assist with loading items, including several loading docks.  This will reduce the shipping costs associated with freight pick ups.  We also offer palletizing, several shrink wrapping options, and banding for a nominal fee for larger/heavier items. Please note that the buyer is responsible for the arrangement and payment of all related shipping and handling charges unless otherwise noted in the auction description.  Please contact us for a quote or with your questions for freight shipping pickup information.
