  • A little moment for artsy-ness while shooting pictures
  • My favorite dress ever sold

Blame it on the hats...

Hatfeathers Vintage is based in Omaha, Nebraska, USA, but sells throughout the world via the internet. Hatfeathers is run by me, Jenn, an admitted vintage-o-phile who loves helping vintage items find new homes with fellow vintage fanatics.

I have been in the vintage business for over 17 years, but have had the vintage bug for much longer. As with many who start a collection, this vintage obsession can be traced back to a single piece. For Hatfeathers Vintage, that piece is a simple flowered hat purchased as a costume piece for a photography project when in college. That single hat, shown above, started an obsession that has grown over the next 15+ years.
Hatfeathers grew from a hobby of selling a few items on ebay while my baby napped and played.
Online sales quickly became a way to contribute to the family budget while staying at home. I branched off from ebay to my own website in the summer of ’07, and maintained it (and the vintage procurement habit) while also running my own sign shop. I have sold the sign shop, and am now back to vintage...and oh, do I have some catching up to do!

Returns and exchange details
The vintage items we sell are one of a kind. We take great care to describe each item fully and accurately, and we guarantee that each vintage item is authentic to the era specified and not a modern reproduction, unless specified.
Returns are dealt with on a case by case basis. We are unable to accept returns unless an item is misrepresented. If you feel an item has been misrepresented, you must contact us within 3 days of receipt of your item to let us know the nature of the problem. If a return is agreed upon, the item is expected to be returned within 14 days of receipt of the item. A tracking number must be provided to the seller.
Clothing items are listed with several measurements for the garment itself (not the potential wearer) therefore we are unable to accept returns for sizing.

OUR TERMS FOR ACCEPTING A RETURN
The item must be unaltered, it must not have been washed or treated with perfumes, have not been subjected to smoke, and be undamaged. It must be packaged with the same care it was sent with, and securely wrapped a plastic bag, should it encounter any moisture en route.
Priority shipping boxes are available for free at the post office, should you need them.
The tracking number should be sent via the Etsy message system when the item is sent out. Returns are expected to arrive within 14 days of contact.
Refunds are processed when the item is received back and passes inspection.
Payment
We accept PayPal and Etsy Payments.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS - In addition to the above information:
All customs forms will be marked as “used vintage (item type)” with the amount of the purchase price noted.

WE DO NOT MARK CUSTOMS FORMS AS “GIFT”.
It is not a gift, it is a purchased item, stating otherwise is mail fraud.

You may be responsible for customs taxes and duties (VAT-Value Added Tax) on your end in accordance to the laws of your country. Check with your local postmaster for details.
These fees are not levied by any Etsy seller.

We do not save your information for future advertising or direct marketing.
Shipping
After purchase, your item will be in the mail the next business day.
Tracking numbers are provided through the Etsy shipping system. Several countries will continue to give detailed tracking information outside of US borders, not all do.

We ship via USPS in most cases (UPS use will be noted in the listing if necessary).
We use USPS First Class, Parcel, and Priority services for USA addresses, with average delivery times of 2-6 days depending on location.

We use USPS First Class International and Priority International for all non-USA addresses. Delivery times vary depending on country and the customs clearance offices within. Average times for First Class are 2-4 weeks. Priority averages 1-2 weeks. These are only averages. The speed of customs offices varies greatly from one country to another.

WE WANT YOU TO GET YOUR SHIPMENT!
SO PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS IS CORRECT WHEN YOU PAY. Incorrect addresses will result in delayed shipping, and possibly a return of the item to us.
We do not refund ship costs when incorrect addresses are given, or an item has gone unclaimed at the post office.
It is the buyer's responsibility to put their proper and correct address on the order. If your mail has to be forwarded, or the address is incorrect, your package will be delayed.
We will contact you with your options in this case. Do not assume we will see an address change request if included in the notes section of Paypal or Etsy. It is easy to add an address on either site for shipping. If you wish your package to go to your office address instead of home, just make the change at check out.

We are always available via the Etsy message system if something needs to be adjusted…but act quickly, as we ship quickly.
Additional policies and FAQs
**INFORMATION ON MEASUREMENTS AND FIT**
We do not refund for items not fitting. Please know your honest and true measurements, vanity is no excuse. We include several measurements for every item we sell. Compare these to a similarly constructed garment that fits you well…such as shoes to shoes or coat to coat. Consider also any undergarments you would wear, or clothing in the case of coats and jackets.
Don’t forget that you need to breathe and move in your clothing, so allowing some room for that is important.
Note, also, where the waist and hem fall on the item for sale in comparison to something you normally wear. Vintage items were often hand made for a particular wearer, and may not fall within modern standards of torso or skirt length.
Our measuring is done with the item hanging on a hanger.
Our standard set of measurements includes bust, waist, and hip, with the hip falling 7” below the waist of the garment. We also include the measurement of shoulder center to waist and hem. This will help you determine where a dress’s waist and hem lines will fall on your body. The measurements are taken with the item hanging as naturally as possible, in the hope that we can best portray the way the garment would hang on a body.
The sleeve measurements are given from the underarm to cuff, and the shoulder seam or transition, whichever is available.
The hem sweep is the measurement of the full width of a skirt’s hem, if it were laid out flat. This will show you the volume of a skirt, or the room you would have at the hem for your legs and movement. This is important if you want to know how much petticoat a 50’s circle skirt will allow, or how much “wiggle” will be required in a pencil skirt, or how much thigh room you would have in one of those late 60’s mini skirts.
If you need a specific measurement that has not been provided, please ask before purchasing.
