ABOUT ME
: Please bid or buy with confidence...I do and always try to describe my items to the best of my knowledge. Check out my feedback! If you really need it or want it bid or buy! You will not be sorry! If it does not say new or mint condition, then it is not in new condition. A vintage item will show some kind of wear, (99.9 Percent) of the time. Unless stated "like new" it should not be considered new. Items are from a non-smoking home! I am not an expert in any field and determine the quality and conditions based on my own judgement.
ALL Vintage items may have what I consider Manufacturer flaws, which do not include chips, nicks or repairs!!
Please email me with any questions before bidding!! I reserve the right to cancel all bids especially if bidder has excessive negative feedback.
99 Percent OF MY AUCTIONS HAVE NO RESERVE, SO BID AWAY!!
