My husband and I have were married May of 1977 and have known each other for 15 years before we were married. And they said it would never last, TEE, HEE. My husband was a MARINE (once a Marine always a Marine), who served with the 2ND Battalion-3RD Marine Division while he was in Vietnam in 1966-1967. OOORAH,

I'm not out to make a million dollars, my eBay is more of a hobby, finding items that you the buyers might be looking for. I do not do FREE SHIPPING, why should I hike up the price of an item just to give you what you think is free shipping, y'all aren't stupid. I adjust the shipping cost to your area this is why I ask for you not to pay until you receive my invoice. If you want to know the shipping cost before you buy just send the question and I'll get back to you with the shipping cost. And if you pay right away without my invoice and the cost isn't enough you will get another invoice with the amount due. If your shipping cost is to much after paying without my invoice I will refund you the difference to your Pay Pal account. Hope this help with your bidding.

Items sold are from our family's estate.Our closets are full as well as our barn. Yup, I said barn; we live in a small very quiet town in Michigan with a few acres (10) .I enjoy going to country garage sales during the summer months and local estate sales, also I shop at resale shops and consignment store, I have no idea of the items I purchase come from a non smoking and pet free home, I pride myself in buying quality new and used name brand items to sell. I'm always looking for items that have been discontinued and vintage items. If an item you purchase does have an odor please don't take it out on me when leaving a feed back, the buyers already know there might be an odor from reading my bio.

I have been crafting and sewing since I was little and I have a craft room that is full, occasionally I will list these item as I clean out my craft room, I have many many cross stitch kits, yarn, lace, and craft books, lots of books for sure. To many craft items to name.

There will be no returns or refunds unless I really make a huge mistake in my description's. Some items are new in packages and other items are like new with little wear. Some item have been here awhile and my smell of smoke even after washing, smoke scent should come out with another washing. We try hard to get the scent out but sometimes this is hard to do, smoke can get into and on to everything. We do use our wood burning fire place during the fall and winter some items might have a smoke smells even after our washing and storing in plastic bags. All washable items are washed before shipping even those items that have been here awhile are washed again, other items are wiped down and cleaned. Hope this helps you before you place a bid.

I put a little higher shipping cost because I have no idea what area I'll be shipping to, this is why I ask you not to pay until you receive my invoice. I will make the adjustments on the cost of shipping it could be less than what I stated and again it could cost a little more, if you pay before you get my invoice and the shipping amount is to high I'll refund the difference back to your Pay Pal account, if the shipping is more than what you paid I'm out of luck right?. Buyers seem to forget that it takes time and money to wash and dry items and then there is all the packing material and the gas it takes to go to the post office, so I think a couple of bucks isn't bad for this service. If your not a seller on eBay you don't know how eBay and Pay Pal nickel and dime a seller for everything from making labels to insertions fees. I hope you understand the sellers dilemma. Thank you for reading, I hope this helps you when you place a bid.
