NOTES & DISCLAIMER
I'm normally quite informative to shoppers, usually to a fault. I examine items pretty thoroughly at the time of listing and in addition to details and features, I mention just about everything regarding the condition, no matter how minor, so as to be fully transparent and thorough in the representation of a product so you can make an informed buying decision and be confident in your purchase... and in my customer service. If there's any flaw not mentioned, then it's likely that it's extremely small (my eyes are troublesome), and so I missed it, or it's a common, but very minor flaw from when the item(s) is manufactured/ created and not actually considered a flaw, nor damage from being used/pre-owned/stored. Such as a bit of glue showing where the outsole is adhered to the upper of a shoe, a slight dimple on porcelain, a bit uneven hand blown item, a hand painted flower that doesn't look perfect, a tiny bubble in glass, etc. If its quite normal and minor, it may be omitted. While I do my best to mention everything, please keep in mind, much of the items I sell are pre-owned (and many are vintage), and whether used or not, are subject to having signs of use from use (or potentially from storage, if new). I'm always sure to send your purchase as clean as possible, in the best condition possible, so you can enjoy it right away, at it's finest potential.
AND, THERE'S EVEN MORE!
Like this? You may like my other items too. I have many quality new and used items listed. My shop is filled with rare and vintage treasures, collectibles, designer handbags, shoes, and fashion and other interesting and useful tidbits. Mainly the things I appreciate and know/specialize in, but likely didn't own myself. They are usually in transition, in need of a new person to love them, or I'm assisting a friend, family, or neighbor to declutter.
If you really love an item
, especially a rare item you may not see again or for a long time, don't sit and watch it too long...some items can be re-homed promptly while you are thinking about it.
Thank you for your interest!
