Occasionally, we\'re lucky enough to acquire items from pristine, dust free, meticulously maintained environments, but more often than not our items come out of barns, garages, and storage facilities where they\'ve been sitting untouched for years. While we do make an effort to perform basic surface cleaning and dust removal, it\'s always possible that you\'ll encounter a little dust or dirt we missed, especially in nooks and crannies.
We do our best to accurately describe our items. We do not use stock or internet photos. What you see in the photos is exactly what you\'ll receive. All of the items we sell are antique/vintage used condition and it would be extremely time consuming to detail every little blemish, therefore we only list clear condition issues that may affect how an item functions. Light soiling, dust, old age toning, dents, paint loss could be present along with other wear consistent with age. Please view all the photos carefully as they are intended to be part of the description and as such NO Refunds or Partial Refunds will be issued for conditions present in photos. More photos are always available upon request. We encourage you to ask questions, and will typically respond within 24 hours. Our shipping fees reflect actual cost plus a small handling fee to help offset the cost of packing materials.
***Please stay tuned for new sale listings every Sunday, fresh from local Maine estates. If you are interested in an item offer early as people often forget and miss out on items. I will not end listings early for any reason so please do not ask. The volume of items is too many to list but overall the areas covered are vintage toys, postcards, games, advertising related items, tins, dolls and other collectibles.***
