Announcement    Welcome to Chance Vintage: a thoughtful alternative to big box shops and consumer culture

*****************************************************************************

The shops philosophy is based on Leonardo DaVinci's words “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”
I am lover of old things with patina and a story: I live in an imaginary farmhouse and furnish it, sparsely. On the other hand, Scandinavian and Japanese smart and lean design make me swoon. Expect to see a lot of wool, leather, wood grain, tarnished metals... I love and appreciate the details, craftsmanship and quality ingredients that go into vintage items: kitchenware, home details, clothing and accessories.

I am a photographer by trade. Please check my sister Etsy shop, g(ART)en - Spirited unique art photography, poetry, prints & cards: www.ajawin.etsy.com

I hope you fall in love at first site and keep coming back for more!

Last updated on May 22, 2016
This shop offers vintage items, all acquired by me for my still life / food styling / other photography purposes... If I want to carry on buying and shooting, I have to let go ;) This is where I do it.

All items are packaged after the order has been placed. Please allow 7-14 days (depending how far apart you and I are) after your payment for safe and secure shipping.

NOTICE: I am discontinuing shipping to Australia as of MAy 2010. There is no cost-effective way for any of us, you or me, to get shipments to you if you live in Australia. My one and only negative feedback comes from a dissatisfied customer in Australia, and I still live in hope that the book she purchased will reach her eventually. I have refunded the entire amount, but the sour feeling is left...

If you use the items purchased from me creatively and care to share the photo of results with me, I would love it! Let me see how my darlings look in their new home! Thank you in advance!

I have a long bio in quirky photography. If you care to see my other store with prints, please visit me on www.ajawin.etsy.com or on Flickr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/ajawin/

Orders are shipped regular Canada Post. It is the cheapest and slowest, yet equally reliable way of shipping. There is no confirmation number or way of tracking. My experience with them has been 100 positive so far. If you want me to ship some faster / more expensive way - please let me know in a convo. I will inquire and adjust the invoice accordingly.

Insurance is not covered in the listing. If you would like to insure your package, please contact me.

International orders are shipped Canada Post AirMail.

To My International Customers:
I do not collect any customs when sending our packages. Any customs fees, taxes, tariffs, duties, etc. that may be incurred at the time of delivery would be at the discretion of your country's tax regulations. I have no way of calculating how much these fees would be, should they occur, and Chance Vintage is not responsible for those charges. For any additional information refer to your local customs agency. Returns will not be accepted due to customs fees. I am happy to ship anywhere in the world.

To My Local Customers (Greater Vancouver Area, British Columbia, Canada): pickup is always possible and free :)
