My wife and I have been collecting antiques for years. This is more of a hobby than a business. Now we've decided to pare down our collection a bit. We are running out of room! We used to have a display at a local antique mall, but the rent was getting to be a little too much.  That is why we have decided to offer these items here on eBay.

We have lots of items to list so put us in your favorites...you never know what is going to pop up! If you see an item similar to what you are looking for, drop me a line...I may have it. You never know, it couldn't hurt to ask.

Thus far we have had a pretty good experience selling here on eBay. There's only been one or two glitches along the way. We strive to make your buying experience an enjoyable one. Below I will describe some of our policies and why we put them into effect.

Condition of items:

I do my best to describe the condition as accurately as possible. Unfortunately,  I have no control over where an item has been before it came into my possession. Apparently some people are very sensitive to pets and smoke and assorted other things. I am not. I do try and clean up items as much as possible. Just keep in mind that most of these items are very old.

Returns:

The number one reason we have been asked to accept returns is due to Buyers Remorse. I am sorry but I cannot eat the cost of shipping and assorted fees just because someone decides a piece does not look good on their mantle.

If I happen to have sent you the wrong item, then I will accept the return. Luckily this has never happened yet.

Shipping:

I have only had one item I sent out get lost in the mail. Because of this I do include Delivery Confirmation in the cost of shipping. I will send you the DC number as soon as your item is shipped. I have no control over how long the shipper (usually the post office) takes to deliver your item.

I will try to get your item out by the end of the next business day after payment has cleared. My auctions usually end in the evening. If you pay with PayPal your item will ship out the next day.

Payment:

I prefer PayPal. That way I am sure I get my money and you are sure your item arrives quickly.

I like to see payment, or at least tell me payment has been sent, within 5 days. If not, I will send you a reminder. After 7 days I will consider you to be a Non-Paying Bidder and will act accordingly. I really don't like disputes so just email me if you have any problems.

Above all, I would like our eBay experience to be enjoyable to the both of us. If you have any questions, feel free to write. My mailbox is always open.

GOOD LUCK

and

HAPPY BIDDING!
