What is your shops focus? What do you personally like to collect? Let us know about you.

Former_Member · ‎08-20-2013

Our shop focus is on a large variety of vintage and antique items. We deal in smalls, no large items like furniture. My husband Rodney likes collecting tools and toys, myself (Christine) I like dishes, anything pertaining to the kitchen and nick knacks. We strive to give excellent customer service and are wanting to help people find that special item. We work a lot of auctions and are huge vintage hunters so if someone is looking for a special item and we know about it we will hunt for it.

I am the mother of three grown children, so it's just my husband and I now. His father ran several antique booths for years so it's a little like a family business. I love all kinds of antiques and vintage, but my favorites are kitchen wares and restaurant ware. The reason I opened an Etsy shop was because I enjoy shopping, but I didn't need anything and I really didn't want to rent a space in a mall or open a physical shop. I only deal with small items, so this way I can feed my addiction to shopping for vintage and antique items. I love shopping for other people, so if there is something I can find out there and pass the info on to a buyer, I would be more than happy to do so. I think the idea of a team to connect buyers with sellers is great and I look forward to helping put these people together.

We collect a bit of everything as you can see by visiting our shop. We have a large collection of vintage toys all the way back to the 1920's. Some primitive, some early nineteenth century. We never limit ourselves so whatever strikes our fancy we might buy and resell. We try and keep our prices low and we do very well here on ETSY. We do re-purpose many things so if anybody has a request for something, we do accommodate custom orders. ETSY shoppers expect a bit more and we try to provide quality service and products.

I live in South Central MO with my 3 dogs (2 are rescues). I love all vintage and antique items and am fortunate to be able to "try" and make a business of it.
I only sell online. I started out on Ebay and at this time I only offer my vintage items on Etsy.
My shop has figurines, carnival glass, christmas ornaments, home decorative pieces and costume jewelry. Personally I love the Mid Century look and I have been known to spend hours in the local flea markets.

SeldomRandom · ‎02-03-2014

I am currently in Kansas, and love the abundance of everything vintage here. My main interests lie in vintage and antique tech, like typewriters, registers, cameras, projectors. However, in pursuing those I have also stumbled upon other things that appeal to me. This is why my shop has a large variety of vintage items, that I find amusing and amazing in some way. So, although they seem random, they seldom are. ;)

Oh and you can like the store on FB under the same name.

Thanks!

TresorsEnchantes · ‎07-17-2014

I sell vintage and antique items, the majority of items I currently have for sale are things from my childhood or things passed down to me from the family. I LOVE the Victorian 1800's era and collect almost anything from that time period. I am also an avid photographer and camera collector. I have a large collection of cameras (vintage and antique) and camera accessories along with old photographs and I have decided to sell some of those to make room for other things I want!
I love the history of anything antique, I love seeing an old forgotten item given new life by a buyer!

A stay at home mom of two cuties. With the absolute love of hunting for that vintage treasure. I gravitate towards shoes, handbags and clothing. Mostly quality fabrics and leather that you just don't get now in the stores. I keep some but what I know I don't need I will sell. It helps justify my complete addiction to hunting!

BlueScorpioMedley · ‎12-03-2014

Hi, I live in Phila., PA and have been selling on Etsy for over 2 years. I am a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Since retiring, I love searching for vintage items. I mainly like finding housewares and home decor, but I also have other types of vintage. I also make jewelry, but although I still make jewelry, I am moving away from that more and more as I find being on the hunt for treasures is a lot more fun.

Former_Member · ‎01-03-2015

Our shop focuses on vintage items from the 1940's onwards. I love collecting vintage clothes jewelry and items from the 20's 40's and 50's and love finding vintage items from my source at the buyers request. -Eva

Hello Everyone,
Cindy and I are located in Alabama. We have been collecting for years, and also had several keepsakes & heirlooms passed down from our Families. We attend auctions, estate sales, yard sales, and flea markets, looking for those vintage items. We specialize in Coins, Trading Cards, Glassware, Artist (animal) Collector Prints, etc. We do our best to evaluate & inventory every item, so as to be able to present the best pricing for our customers. We look forward to working with the "Vintage Requests Team" and love the group idea that customers "can request" specific items that they are looking for, as we do that here locally for our friends & customers.

Phil & Cindy
