My
ebay user
ID stems
from my love of flowers,
the Vanda
cristata
is a species of orchid found
in the Himalayas
and I see
wandering
through
a Himalayan
orchid filled
lane
as a
beautiful vision.
Thereupon
Vandalane was
born.
Firstly,
thanks for taking the time to be
here as I greatly appreciate the
support of the
ebay community!
My
name is Alison and I am that
person who has passion for
various areas of antiques. My
love started with
Australian Colonial furniture
which
led
me to Georgian
sterling and
jewellery, offering me
unique opportunities
that I am ever grateful.
Many
people
ask me
this
and my response
is that collecting
is a
hunt, we
all love
antique fairs
and auctions -
ebay
offers the
hunt.
You
will find me
selling
a
combination
of Auction
&
Buy it
now(with
offer),
if I
can
secure an item
for a
good
price I will
always
try and
pass on the
saving
as I
firmly
believe an
item
is worth
what someone
is
willing to
pay.
More
so I actually
enjoy
ebay,
all the
wonderful
people I've
come
to know
through here
and
the art of
listing items
- it
is a
creative
process
that
I
thoroughly
enjoy.
While
the
internet
is a fine
source
of
information I
cannot
recommend
highly
enough
the importance
of
actual
reference
books.
