Our quality merchandise comes directly from Estate Sales, private homes, thrift shops, and local auctions hand picked and purchased by me and my husband. As most of you may know, most vintage or used items will have some age, wear, blemishes, etc but here, we try to describe as accurate as possible and show many photos, so you know exactly what you are bidding on. So please read our detailed description and view the photos as they are part of the description and ask any questions before placing a bid as we do not give partial refunds for age, use wear, blemishes, or mfg. flaws. We also do not lie, steal or cheat, especially just to make a sale. Lord knows we are all only human and do make mistakes, but we try very hard not to here so please rest assure and bid with confidence.
Typically, our photos are shot outdoors under natural lighting on a not so fancy old railroad tie, rail or somewhere outdoors, so please excuse any camera reflection glares, white spots or specks and shadows. Yes, we are old school and our descriptions also may be more lengthy than others, but we like you know exactly what you are buying/bidding on so there are no surprises.
Please read the entire description, see all photos and ask any questions before placing a bid.
All emails/messages are answered.

Claims/Refunds - Please DO NOT request a return on merchandise damaged in shipping. Insurance claims will be filed upon proof of damage (proof of damage is pictures which are needed to file claims). If your item arrives to you damaged in shipping, please contact us and DO NOT THROW ANYTHING AWAY. In order to file a USPS/FedEx online claim from our end, we must have pictures of the box at every angle, shipping labels (tracking/addressee), wrapping materials, bubble wrap, and the breakage. Shipping carriers now also require a physical inspection of damage/breakage before finalization of a claim and/or refund. So this means after a claim is filed online by us, you and us both will receive a letter in the mail or contact my phone instructing the damage to be taken in for a inspection. Once the inspection is completed, let us know and we will verify and refund. We usually don't have problems because we wrap and pack very well in heavy duty oversized boxes (please see feedback), but you just never know with shipping carriers these days with their automated robotic sorters and all. If there is a problem with your order, please contact us and we will fairly work it out together. Thank you.
