Just Who Is this Catladykate Anyway?
Yes, I'm a real person and yes I love cats. The name "catlady" came from my first cat who thought I was hot stuff - almost as good as a real cat - thus, a catlady. My real name is Kathy but catladykathy sounds pretty silly. Besides, my brother calls me Kate.
You can contact me at Kathy@catladykate.com.
Why I Sell Glass
Hey, that is simple! I love glass. I've always loved going to the department stores and jewelry stores and looking at (ok, drooling over) the beautiful etched and cut crystal stemware. When I found eBay the first thing I did was smile. They sell glass! They sell lots of glass!
And you know what? I can sell glass too. I can learn about this stuff, go to a few estate sales, have my own business. My lifelong goal of owning my own business, creating it from scratch and growing it myself met my lifelong love of fine glassware.
What makes me a good seller is research, ongoing learning, the fact I love my product, the joy when I can connect a customer with that treasured piece so they can finally use the set they inheirited from their mom.
What made me a better seller was buying glass online. Like many of you, I've gotten boxes with damage, mint glass full of nicks and wear. That taught me to check, re-check and check again. It also taught me the value of a full money back guarantee. After all, what good is it if I have to pay to return something damaged?
We want you to buy the glass you want and receive the glass you ordered, intact and as described
The Story of Oscar
Oscar was a pill. He loved helping me with my glass, no bowl was too small (or too large) to sleep in, no goblet too fragile to nudge, no plate complete without his personal inspection. He paved the way for our other friends, including Amanda who tested gravity - and my reflexes - with my Baccarat goblets.
