Welcome to my About Me page! 

I've been buying and selling on ebay since December 1999.  I'm located in the Hudson River Valley of upstate New York - a region renowned for its inspiring beauty and rich history - which is where I find most of the unique and special items I offer for sale in my ebay store.  

Having been a horsewoman for decades,  I specialize in horse-related items - new and gently used tack, riding apparel,  and related decorative items - which I refer to as "equestriana."  I started riding as a child and I've owned horses for 25 years, so I've been collecting "horsey stuff" for a very long time, which has enabled me to develop a very discerning eye for items that are special and well-made -- a cut above the ordinary in quality. 

I also have a background in art/design, and I love to cook, decorate and travel - all of which inform my varied selection of antiques, decorative items, housewares, collectibles, smalls, and country casual clothing and accessories. I try to offer items that are attractive, functional and reflect classic designs that stand the test of time - and all at very reasonable prices!

I work hard to ensure I always have a broad selection of merchandise to offer, and that I describe things accurately, carefully noting any unique features or flaws, to ensure there are no surprises.  What I describe and depict in photos is what you get.   

I try to keep my listings simple and straightforward, but I'm always happy to answer any questions or take additional photos if requested.  I only ask that questions be posed at least 1 day prior to a listing's end, if possible, to ensure I can respond in time.   

When you buy, I am careful to pack items well and to ship them very quickly - usually within 1-2 business days, and occasionally the very same day!  I know what it's like to wait for ebay purchases to arrive, so I try to keep things moving at my end so you don't have to wait very long to receive your purchase.   I typically use USPS Priority Mail - I've found the reliability, speed and safety are worth the modest extra cost  incurred, since my customers always appreciate getting their items quickly and in good order.

I'm very gratified that my feedback from has been consistently positive from buyers and sellers alike, since their satisfaction is my priority.  I will accept returns if there is a problem with an item, but usually only if there's a significant discrepancy between the item description and its actual condition.  Buyers should contact me immediately upon receipt, and before returning an item, since shipping charges are not refunded.  I always keep lines of communication open so we can discuss the situation and come to a mutually acceptable resolution.

I appreciate my customers and their positive feedback, and I thrive on the hunt to find new and fun things to offer them in ebay auctions or my ebay store. 

Thanks for visiting my store and do stop by often as the inventory is always changing!  Happy ebay shopping!
