Each item in our eBay store comes from a family member and is maintained and stored with the utmost care. We do our best to properly and accurately describe each and every item, but there are variations in how people view, interpret and notice condition, alterations, measurements, etc. On some items it is near impossible to mention every imperfection and for this reason our listings include multiple photos of each angle of our items for sale. The pictures are part of the description and condition report. Color may appear differently on varying monitors and device settings. All of our items have been cleaned. However, we do not treat any of our garments. We are careful and selective of the items we sell according to their condition / cleanliness. Everything in this world has a scent, which varies by age, storage and prior use. Unless otherwise stated our items are not new or factory direct. AUTHENTICITY: We sell only authentic items and authenticate every item prior to it being listed. Thank you for your trust! General Statement: I have been a buyer on Ebay for a number of years. Some of the auction items that I purchased over the years, I really needed, and many other winning auction items (like 100 pairs of chopsticks - REALLY) after some embarrassment and family criticism, have made for a good story. It is my sincere goal to never embarrass any buyer, and to attempt to make every buyer who purchases one of my listed auction items more than satisfied. All of the auction items (whether pre-owned or brand new) come from a clean, pet-free, smoke-free, and mold-free home. I will always try and address any criticism or complaint in a prompt and thorough manner. I have procrastinated listing items on Ebay long enough and now it is time to say goodbye to some of my family's belongings. Happy Bidding!!!
