Being Retro and Vintage, items are sold 'as is'. Any flaws will be noted in photos, as best as possible.

~ I want you to be happy with your purchase, so please, ask many questions, and lets make this a great experience for all of us!

~ returns are at the buyer expense, although all sales are final, we realize crazy things will happen and we will try and work with you on all issues!

~ you must inform the shop by EMAIL if there is an issue with your item within 48 hours of receiving (2 days)

~We do ask that if there is an issue, and we agree on a return- it is done within 7 days of receiving your items. After 7 days we will no longer agree to a refund.
We appreciate your consideration in this matter.

~ we will require a TRACKING NUMBER for your return within that 7 day period- otherwise a refund will be void.

~Returns must be made in original shipping box only. It may take up to 7-10 days for your purchase price to be refunded.
Again- depending on the situation shipping fee's are not included in refunds.

~We insure all items upon shipment- and the process for claims may be longer than 10 days. We will keep in contact with you at all times so we are all on the same page!
I would want it that way, so I accept nothing less for my customers!

►**FYI** If you purchase something, please make sure your shipping address is CORRECT! You will be responsible for ALL returned shipments if this is not done!**

Please note that international buyers are responsible for any and all duties and customs charges that may be incurred, as I have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; please contact your local customs office for further information. Please note that when customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond the original delivery estimates, and I cannot speed up these things.**

UPDATE 12/1/2018 : Don't Be 'Porch Pirate' Victim:


If your employer will allow it, have packages delivered to your office.
Have packages delivered to a place where they can be received in person, such as the home of a trusted neighbor, who stays home during the day, or a retired relative.
Request that the shipper require a signature confirmation upon delivery. This will prevent your package from being left at an unattended home. ( extra )
