On Etsy since 2013

I am so lucky to live in New York!

It is truly my pride and joy to locate and bring you these quality vintage items hand-picked from my new home state of New York!

There is a ton of quality vintage available in New York if you have the eye and know where to look. I prefer to list brand new, unused or items in like-new condition and deviate from that only rarely and only with very good reason. Buying and selling junk would be unpleasant for me and is frankly unnecessary when there are such lovely things literally all around me. I am so lucky to live in New York! I absolutely love it, and I know you will too. Thank you for "picking" Apple Picker Vintage!

Buyer is responsible for any loss in value for items returned in less-than original condition, to be deducted from refund amount at seller's discretion.

Please be aware that time limitations for insurance claims do apply, so do not hesitate.

DAMAGED ITEM CLAIMS REQUIRE buyer (you) take and submit quality, high resolution close up and wide angle photographs of the outside of the package, the inside packing materials, the damaged item and the address label. Upon timely submission of requested documentation, I will either send a replacement at my option (and if one is available) or issue a full or partial refund depending on the nature and extent of the damage. I reserve the right to have the item returned at my discretion; if I need it back, I will pay for the return postage.

LOST ITEM CLAIMS REQUIRE buyer (you) to submit timely information upon request, this will vary depending on the circumstances. Upon timely submission of requested documentation, I will issue a full refund of the original purchase price plus original shipping, or, if an identical or similar item is available, I will send a replacement at my option. "Lost" means the item is not marked delivered and has not arrived within a reasonable time, usually 5-14 days from date of shipment for domestic shipments and 14-30 days for international.

Additional policies and FAQs
All items are stored in my smoke-free home and are delivered to you in their quality, found condition. I do not generally clean or launder and leave this up to the new owner to clean or freshen as needed. If you desire to clean your items upon receipt, please use care and research proper cleaning methods to preserve condition and avoid damage.

I buy and sell only the finest quality vintage and I discard, rather than list, items that do not meet my strict requirements. Very minor "flaws" including as-manufactured flaws are to be expected in quality vintage items and may not be described in the listing; however, if I notice something unusual on inspection I will do my best to describe it accurately. Where applicable, elastics are gently hand-stretched by me to make sure they have not lost their snap -- badly "ruffled" and dead elastics are not offered for sale. Items with chips, stains, tears, missing or damaged pieces or other major flaws that interfere with the function or appeal of the piece are not offered for sale.

Buyer Feedback: I strive to offer 5-star service. Etsy punishes sellers who have any less than a 5-star average, if you would like to leave positive feedback please make sure you can leave the full 5-stars! I will not contact buyers regarding feedback left so please make sure the stars and review you leave accurately reflect your experience. Please note that on some devices, you may have to revise the star-rating as the stars default to less than 5, this is a known bug.

Measurements: Are approximate. For clothing items, I measure in inches from seam to seam, laid flat, unstretched, on the outside of the garment. Collar means collar seam, shoulder means shoulder seam etc.

Disclaimer and legal statement: all items are offered for sale in their found, secondhand condition and no warranties exist, express or implied, including warranty of merchantability and warranty for a particular purpose. Seller reserves the right to cancel or refuse service at its discretion. All items are offered as collectors' items for adults only. Buyers' sole remedy against seller is the return policy as outlined above. Buyers must be 18 years of age or older. Use of this site constitutes your agreement to all terms. Thank you!
