Frequently asked questions
Postage to the UK
Purchases will be posted by 1st Class Royal Mail. If it's higher value I'll add Signed For or do Special Delivery. Items weighing over 2kg will now also be posted Royal Mail. I may not be able to post to some areas of the UK, such as the Channel Islands, but I'll give it a good go! I'll try to post within 24 hours (when Post Office opening hours allow).
Postage abroad
I'm currently not posting abroad - sorry.
Vintage
I have specially chosen these items to be of superior quality and condition for their age and era. Or chosen for rarity. All my items are vintage (20+ years old) and may naturally have some wear and tear or bubbles or formation marks which may not be in the description. I have written everything to the best of my ability, and tried to describe any flaws. The photos also help to show the condition - please view all photos and read the descriptions.
Other postage
For lower value items I'm happy for you to provide the address and unique code for a UK onward mailing company, but I cannot accept responsibility for any damage or non-delivery beyond the mailing company's address. Once the UK mailing company has safely received the parcel it is no longer my responsibility.
Packaging
I use large bubble bubble-wrap with strengthening card and sturdy cardboard boxes. I usually double box for safety and I re-use old newspapers or card to fill any gaps. I have been selling on Etsy for over nine years and know and trust my packing. Jewellery is posted in small sturdy black cardboard jewellery boxes, in a mailing bag. I've posted thousands of items and not had a breakage for many years. (Please re-use or recycle any packaging!)
About me
I have a Fine Art degree and worked in magazine design and publishing for 25 years. I quit publishing four years ago and now sell online full time. I've sold online for over 20 years, since 2003, and have 100% feedback on ebay. I've been selling vintage, mid century and retro - and studying and researching and learning about my items - for ten years. My Etsy shop was launched in 2014 and has had Star Seller status every month since August 2021.
Delivery times
I estimate a UK mainland delivery to be 2-3 working days from time of ordering, but please allow a week at busy times or holidays. The weather, seasonal holidays, sickness or your locality may effect the delivery times. If you're worried and have waited more than a reasonable amount of time, please contact me - I'm here to help.
Condition
Perfect condition - no vintage items are perfect, so if I describe something as 'perfect' it really is awesome with no signs of age or use. Excellent condition - very close to perfect but with a very hard to see sign of its age or use. Very/really good condition - a very nice superior item, maybe with a few very small signs of age, maybe one fleabite or a small scratch. Good condition - in nice previously used condition, maybe with fine crazing, a few scratches or a few nibbles or small chips. Good vintage/used condition - a few more signs of age and use and maybe a few small chips, crazing or a noticeable scratch. Used condition/vintage condition - I rarely list these items. They do show many signs of age and use, so please do check.
