Policies
We sell
antiques, collectible, and vintage items. Items may contain minor dusting,
soiling, usage marks, and blemishes caused by natural aging and use. All items
are being sold as collectibles. Every so often we do list some new items which
we clearly state in the description.
Condition Chart:
We do try our
best to match the product to the condition below.
Mint: Brand new and never used. No visible flaws in appearance. First
quality. Most antique and vintage items will not fall in this category.
However, there are some old back stock still in the market and highly sought
after.
Excellent: Upon close inspection some very minor signs of use or wear, but no serious
flaws. Highly prized antique and vintage items. Condition usually can't be
upgraded or any better.
Very Good: Obviously used but kept in great condition and well cared for. Displays
normal signs of use and wear but no abuse.
Good: Clearly used enough to cause noticeable signs of wear. Overall still in
collectible condition. Offers satisfaction of owning a long sought after piece.
The collectible condition is still tolerated by most collectors.
Fair: Used extensively, many cosmetic flaws and signs of wear. Still holds
collectible desire based on availability, uniqueness and character. Usually
purchased by collectors if an item is rare and not ready available on the open
market or as a restoration project. Makes for a nice filler piece.
Poor: Used extensively with abundant and major cosmetic flaws. Sold "AS
IS" for decorative use only. Makes for a nice filler collectible until a
better one can be obtained. Displays lots of use and age character. For the
collector who likes to restore or just desires the primitive rustic look of an
abused aged item.
The condition
listed is a personal opinion. We try to give a fair opinion based on our
