“Cindee is a charm. I couldn't wish for a better seller to deal with. She's been fantastic. The vintage, infant shoes she sold me are absolutely perfect for one of my ventriloquist dummies used to portray Robin Hood. They shoes certainly fit the style and period Robin lived in. They were an excellent price, better quality than described and shipped very fast. Cindee is now going out of her way to help me find another pair of a different color and style for a little character portraying Long John Silver. If you are looking for an excellent shop to buy from, or to help you find something special, please don't hesitate to contact her.”
