All About MeWhat everyone should know about me
My auctions not only aid in cleaning out my closets, but also help me pay bills while I'm looking for a new job. Very likely, I'll have to relocate again (for the new job), and this time I'd like to carry less along for the ride.

Business InformationHistory/background
If you've been wondering how one person could possibly have so much stuff... well, it's a long story. I inherited the packrat genes from my dad's side of the family. Add on top of that my addiction to handmade wearable art carried on from when I was a patchwork artist vending at festivals & shows -and- my self-appropriated job as currator of neglected vintage goods. Now let's also mix in my recent career change (public service to research). From this eccentric history (a long, strange trip, if you will...)comes an ecclectic mix of auction items. I started ebaying in college as a way to pay the bills. After I found more permanent / full-time employment, ebay saved me from the harm that would have come to me from an imminent closet avalanche. Recently, I resigned from my miserable job of 5 years to return to my first love: research. While I'm locating my next job venture, ebay sales pay my bills. Thank you for helping me lighten my load while adopting a piece of my past (~):o)
Payment policy
Paypal, Money Order, Concealed Cash (at your own risk), and Personal Check. I will hold items until personal checks clear, no matter how high your feedback rating or how low your purchase price. I had an Ebayer with a high feedback rating bounce a check for $10 on one of my items, so I've had to go to this policy. Thank you for understanding :o)
Shipping information
I gladly will combine items to save money on shipping, even if auctions end on different days -- just let me know in advance so I can put things aside. Most packages are mailed via the U.S. Postal Service, Priority Mail. On lighter items, I will give you the option of mailing either First Class or Priority Mail; heavy items are mailed the most cost effective option (USPS or UPS). International shipping can be configured using the International Rate Calculator.
Return policy
I strive to be as honest as possible in my auctions. However, mistakes do happen. I offer refunds for items ((markedly different)) than described, including incorrect measurements; damage unreported in the ad; fraudulent merchandise. I will refund your purchase price plus shipping, upon safe return of the item. For clothing, please do not rely on size alone, check the measurement provided in the ad. I cannot accept returns in situations where items that do not fit, you change your mind, or you do not like the item.
I encourage all prospective buyers to read the item description thoroughly and ask questions prior to purchase, to ensure satisfaction. (~):o) Thank you!
