We have been in the retail business for over 50 years. Our start was a family owned and operated chain of 28 photo finishing and Hallmark stores started by my uncle in 1946. As time changed and digital cameras came to be, our photo processing had almost ceased. To subsidize our lost revenue we decided to start selling our own collections of toys, Hallmark Keepsake ornaments, Lionel trains, cameras and coins on Ebay. We did so well selling our own collections that others asked us to do the same for them.

     Being an avid collector myself I understand the importance of item condition and will mention in any listing an item that does not meet my standards. Although a majority of our merchandise is new and have never been displayed, we do continue to buy large and small collections from others. Any box or item that is not in mint condition is mentioned in the listing description. We take pride in customer satisfaction and personalized service. Even though we are power sellers please don’t get the impression you are dealing with a large corporation, you are dealing with two people only, my husband or myself. I have purchased many things on Ebay and have been disappointed with the quality and poor packaging, I assure you that will not be the case with us. We want all of our buyers to feel confident in their purchase, please see our feedback from satisfied customers. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us. All of our items are shipped within 2 business days; many or most are shipped the same day as payment received.  Please check our vacation settings for unavailable shipping times. Although we may not be able to ship your items during these times we are still available for all your inquiries.
