This thread is for everyone that is actively tracking down a particular item. It will be permanently kept as the top post, and I encourage all members that are shop owners to check it regularly.

Feel free to offer as much information as possible about the item you're after, including pictures, so we can provide you with the best results.

To save yourself the hassle of having members contact you after you get your treasure please contact me so I can remove your post if you're not interested in multiples.

I want 40 scrabble tiles with these letters:
C 2
E 6
F 1
J 2
K 2
L 3
M 4
O 5
P 5
R 10
I want them to be the original plain Scrabble tiles, but it doesn't matter if they are scruffy. The ones I have and am using already have maroon stain on them from the box getting wet. So I'm not picky. Please convo me! Thank you. :)

Hi all!
I am seeking a cool old princess wall phone... I would like it to be avacado/army/olive green, but would be just as happy with a dark cranberry color as well! I need it to be in working order and ready to hang on my kitchen wall....
Thanks a bunch... Chris

I'm hoping to make a trade for a ceiling / pendant lamp or even just a shade. Something to liven up my kitchen a little bit! This shop is a good example of the style I'm looking for:

I have found that vintage shoes will range in size if I see boots

I immediately try those bad boys on
and lo and behold I have placed upon my Godzilla girl feet size 8 and one half vintage eskimo girl boots
they were snug, but I am a shoe and boot fashionista

it does get me into trouble since the neighbors gave me a beautiful old piano for my home

Now its just sell and give away some of the items I collected over the years
I chose One doll and the other dollies will have to pack their bags
