Shipping
Domestic: I ship using priority mail and delivery confirmation. The cost is $4.99and $3.00 each additional item (for most items). Heavy items rate will be shown at top of page below bid.
International: I generally ship using First Class Mail - $12.50 The next 3 additional items are $6.50 for most items Long dresses $7.00 For the 5th item through the 9th, I start a new package and the above pricing repeats. Email me for a definite price and any questions.
Canada: For shipping to Canada I use First Class International. Because Canada is a neighboring country, my shipping costs for MOST dresses is $6.99 plus $2.50 each additional items.
Sorry... I cannot be liable for lost shipments. If you are concerned about shipping internationally, Please consider shipping with registered mail. It only costs $10.80 more (additional to flat rate) and it places your items under lock and key at every destination. This price is per package, so if you are combining shipping, each package is an additional $10.80. Most international customers receive their item(s) within 6-15 days. Please keep in mind customs delays are unpredictable entirely and can be as long as 2 months. It is very unlikely but possible. I do not pay for or reimburse for customs fees, tariffs or taxes.
About Us
My passion is searching daily for incredible buys, unbelievable deals and gorgeous vintage clothes to bring to you. I want you to be happy with your purchase, and I really want you to come back again. I do my very best to state any flaws or blemishes in the auction details so that you can feel comfortable that what you see is, in fact, what you get. Having said that, many of my auctions are on vintage / previously loved items. Unless I stated "like new" please remember these items are not perfect, I just hope they are perfect for you...
When I list an item, I either list it in Mint, Excellent, Very Good or Good condition. The difference between the 4 is Mint is possibly unworn, I cannot find any flaws. Excellent is pressumed worn. It only flaw may be that I sense that it has been worn. Very Good is flaws are very minimal and do not believe they will interfere with the wearing of the item. Good means I did find some noticable flaws but this item is too adorable to pass up. I do state in any case, specific flaws. If I see it as Good, the flaws and very minimal and probably will only be noticed if you look for them. Also, unless otherwise stated all jewelry and belts are not included in the auction.
About the Measurements:
Please note: all "estimated '09 size" figures on chart are my guess at what size it appears to be, please refer to measurments for true fit. Measurements are as follows, I lay all clothes flat on a table. (SHOULDER) I use the shoulder seam if there is one. If there is not one, I approximate where I believe the shoulder should fit and measure straight across to the other shoulder on the same spot. (BUST) I measure underarm seam to seam. (WAIST) If there is a normal waist, I measure straight across to the other side. If there is an empire waist, I measure same from empire waist. If there is no waist I measure where I believe the waist to be, and measure straight across to the other side same spot. If there is a stretchy waist I measure laying unstretched first, then stretched to a reasonable amount, and measure there. I do not stretch anything to an uncomfortable level, so it is possible, in many cases to stretch a little further. If you have questions on that , please email me. For (HIPS), I approximate where the hips should sit and measure from there. In many cases, if there is a normal sitting waist, I will measure about 2 inches down from where I measured the waist. I list as -free- hips if I believe the hips are substantially larger then the waist, flaring straight out like a shelf if pulled. (please email me with questions on that description) (LENGTH) I now measure from the underarms down to the hem. Previously, for you return customers, you may remember I measured from the waist down. That way was very difficult to explain on tent dresses with no waist.
The beautiful vintage clothes I sell do not always fit my model perfectly, so occasionally, I do pin back items to show you how the item should fit based on measurements. Always match measurements to an item you currently own that you know fits you well.
