Vintage Jewelry Note: While I strive to send out jewelry in immediately wearable condition, I recognize that there are many perspectives regarding patina and cleanliness of vintage jewelry. For this reason, I give vintage jewelry a basic cleaning for photographic purposes. I leave the final decision regarding deep cleaning or polishing to the buyer's discretion.
Boring Details: Most of the items I sell are vintage or at the very least pre-owned. I take great care to list clean and immediately wearable/usable items. However, since these items have had a previous life, they may have been well loved and/or improperly cared for. I cannot guarantee absence of all smoke/pet hair/pollen/drugs/alcohol/oh did you read the last two? Obviously, I am trying to say that if you prefer brand new, unloved, untouched stuff, best bid elsewhere. But, if you appreciate patina, normal wear and uniquity, please check out my other listings, and stay tuned, I promise to list great stuff weekly!
Payment and Shipping: Grownups make contact within 3 days, and pay within 7 days, all others will be reported and banned! I will gladly combine shipping on most items, to save you $$$!!! Do be reasonable, I can't combine an antique sad iron with Fiestaware! I ship FAST--1 or 2 days after receiving cleared payment!! Delivery confirmation is included in shipping cost. I package all items with the utmost of care, but out of respect for our planet, I may use recycled packaging materials. If this bothers you, please do not bid!
I welcome International Bidders, and have had numerous successful transactions all over the world. For international transactions, PAYPAL ONLY PLEASE, and please email in advance for shipping quote! All custom's fees, taxes, VAT, duties, etc are the sole responsibility of the buyer. Customs forms are filled out accurately, as per US law. Thanks for understanding!
My return policy: If the item description is inaccurate, I will refund full sales price upon receipt of returned merchandise, including all shipping costs. Please contact me immediately if there is a problem, I know we can work out any issues!!!
