We pride ourselves on our very clear photographs of our products, but please be aware that every computer shows images differently so may not look exactly the same as the original item.
We always try to show and describe our products in the clearest and most honest way. What may seem excellent or good condition to us may not be excellent or good condition to you. So please study the photos well and dont hesitate to ask us for more information if you are in any doubt. We are a friendly bunch and always happy to help our customers.
Nearly all of our products are either vintage or antique, which means they may well have been used for many many years. So items will often have tiny scuffs, scratches and signs of wear. This patina is what makes old things special and interesting. Our photographs are taken in a way that tries to show any age wear.
We are very knowledgeable in our field but dont claim to be an expert on every item that we sell. We will always try to describe them in the most honest and accurate way that we can. We are very happy to answer any questions you might have on a particular product.
We are very well known for our very high quality packing of orders (please see our feedback). Once your order has been posted is out of our hands, and have no control over how the courier handles or treats it. If, on those rare occasions it should arrive with you broken or damaged, please let us know straight away. We would always advise to take clear photos of both the packaging and the damage done, as this really speeds up refunds etc. Just send them to us with your message.
Our shipping costs are accurately worked out to cover Postage, packing, insurance and fees. We always try to be as fair priced as we can.
We prefer payments immediately after the sale, but realise this is not always possible. So we are quite happy to allow up to 4 days for payment. If there is no communication or payment within 4 days will have no option but to report this to eBay and relist the item. This is the last thing we want to happen as it leaves bad feelings for everyone.
Lastly, we would like to thank you so much for taking the time to browse our little shop. We hope you enjoy what you see and maybe give some of our wonderful items a new home.
