Majority of my items for sale are pre-loved treasures that were most likely purchased at a local Estate Sale or a local resale shop in Arizona. I may or may not know details but do spend time researching information to provide details the best I can and to pass along fair prices.

* I take all my own pictures in my home and as such try and get all the colors as true to correct as possible.

* The items in the pictures are the exact item you will be receiving, unless I have multiple of the same item and the quality will be the exact same as the ones pictured.

* I take great care in packaging items correctly and shipping on time. I show any imperfections I can in the pictures.

* Assume items are preloved and or vintage and such can have its own idiosyncrasies due to age alone and normal wear and tear.

* Please contact me if you have specific questions.
