We are a relatively young recently-retired couple who have taken our collecting very seriously through the years. While we are new to Etsy, we are hardly new to on-line selling. At times, through the years, we find we have more than we need and/or that our needs have changed. And so some of the treasures we have collected need to go to new homes where they can once again be utilized and appreciated.

Our previous ventures in on-line selling were very successful. Not only because of the items we offered but also because we pride ourselves on great customer service. We like good communication, we like to pack well, we like to be as fast as possible in getting packages shipped out. We especially like always treating people the way we always want to be treated ourselves.

And so, here we are again, although using a new venue, Etsy, to offer a number of our extra items to the public. We are, after all, serious collectors and need to thin out our collections every so often. So we have once again begun the process of opening boxes, crates and bins, taking photos, writing as accurate descriptions as we are able, proof-reading time and again. Waiting for that special someone who finds one of our items just that perfect treasure, someone who will love and appreciate that treasure as much as the original owner or as much as we did when we acquired it. Maybe even more so ...

With the state of the economy and at least several postal rate increases since our last on-line venture, we found Etsy to be the perfect venue. The low listing fees help to keep our prices stable. We are always ready to negotiate on multiple purchases, to give our Customers the best deal possible. And we like to charge actual shipping costs without added mark-ups for handling or shipping supplies.

Visit our blogs to get a better idea of who we are and what we like and how we like to do business. We are also, for the first time, chronicling our start up in this present on-line venture and will occasionally offer additional photos of items there as Etsy only allows five photos per listing at the moment. As one might have already guessed, we want our Customers to know what they are getting and to be happy with their purchase, as well as the process and time in getting that purchase to their doorsteps.

Thank you for visiting and taking the time to learn a little more about us!
