I've been a chronic collector most of my life. Over the years, I managed to acquire a large supply of things that looked neat, I might want later, or were just too good to pass up. As a result, the store room, attic and garage were filled with all my great finds. When our child was born, the need for space and money quickly convinced me that my stuff had to go. My wife suggested having a garage sale, but I knew I would only get pennies on the dollar for my items and they would all end up in someone's shop or on eBay. So, I took the plunge, bought a digital camera and began my garage sale on the Internet.

Here to Stay!

As it turned out, I really enjoyed selling on eBay. I got fair prices for my stuff and my buyers loved the deals and merchandise they were getting. So, I decided to get in deep. I quit my job and I'm doing this full time. I don't do things like this lightly. I'm here to stay. I am committed to offering quality items, accurately described, with excellent customer service and very fast shipping. I want every customer to be happy and so far I seem to be doing great. It has been great hearing about all the places my items have gone. I've had items that I've sold used in movies, put in a restored 1930's racing car, used as a props in plays, and put in countless collections. At least ten of my items have ended up in museums or historical displays. I shipped one item to the Smithsonian Institution. I have no idea if it became part of their collection, but they left me feedback than indicated that they were very pleased. I have also enjoyed getting to interact with hundreds of great people out there.

Customer Satisfaction

Anyone can sell on eBay. But it takes dedication and commitment to your customer to provide true quality and achieve a great feedback rating. I love happy bidders and I hope you will be one soon. I answer all questions (please ask!) and emails ASAP, and almost always within 24 hours. I try to meet a buyer's special requests whenever I can. I ship very quickly, so you will have your item sooner than you might expect. I am always happy to combine multiple purchases to save you money on shipping. I sell quality items, accurately described. 95% of my items come from estate sales. In our small, rural community, I know many of the people whose stuff I buy. It is easy to know who takes care of their stuff and who has junk. If I know an item has any problem, I will tell you in the listing. All my policies are listed in each auction. Integrity and honesty are important. Repeat customers are valuable. Being an eBay PowerSeller is an honor and demonstrates my success.

Rare and Unique Items

Many of the items I have for sale are rare and unique. Anyone can sell the same old stuff. I want my listings to be interesting. I try focus on offering things that are unusual or very difficult to find. As a result, you will see many items here that you cannot find anywhere else. Don't count on seeing more of the same item. Too often, I've had a bidder say, "I got outbid at the last minute. Do you have any more of those? No one seems to have anything like it!" Check back often. You never know what I will turn up next! I love selling antiques, old toys, vintage advertising, rare books, military items and collectible house wares. But I can be expected to have just about anything. My goal is to keep at least 50 items up for bids and 150 items in my eBay store at all times. My inventory may be ever changing, but my commitment to my customers will not. You can view all my items with gallery images by going to my store Vintage and Variations. This is a very easy way to shop my items quickly and organized by category.
