FIRST OFF, MY APOLOGIZES FOR ALL CAPS, I AM A ONE HANDED TYPER AND 50% DEAF, JUST SO YOU KNOW. I am trying to reise older listings and caps removed. I work at ebay, full time and I have dial-up internet and so it is taking forever to do so. Sorry !

ANTIQUES, COLLECTIBLES, Nostalgia, EVERYTHING...I SELL ALOT OF TOY'S. BECAUSE I COLLECTED AND BOUGHT ALOT OF COLLECTIONS...Items are older and used and I cannot understand how some people pick em apart. I even had a guy, cause he just had to _itch about something, say I had bad writing..WHATEVER, WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE SO NASTY??? Anyway, I sell and have jewlery, glass wear (collectible & every day), vintage and used clothing, books (old & new), magazines from comics to ladise home journal old & newer, furniture, electronics, instruments, lots of everything. If you do read this, Ask, I may have what you are looking for.

ANYTHING, EVERYTHING...I DO NOT BUY PEOPLES BULL ABOUT EVERY EXCUSE IN THE BOOK AND THEN SOME, I THINK I HAVE HEARD IT ALL, BUT THEN MAYBE NOT???. ALSO, ME USING ALL CAPS...SORRY AGAIN TO MY BUYERS THAT DID TAKE THE TIME TO READ MY BIO...

I MADE A PROMISE TO MY GRANDPA BEFORE HE PASSED AWAY. I PROMISED HIM THAT IF I EVER OPENED ANOTHER STORE, I WOULD INCLUDE HIM IN IT. I PROMISED I WOULD ALSO PASS OUT THE REST OF HIS CHRISTIAN TRACKS THAT HE SO FAITHFULLY RODE HIS SCOOTER MOBILE 4 MILES TO TOWN AND SIT IN FRONT OF WAL-MART AND PASS THEM OUT TO PEOPLE WITH HIS BIG GENUINE SMILE AND TOLD PEOPLE THAT GOD LOVED THEM. THEN HIS BATTERY BEING LOW, HE WOULD GO ACROSS THE STREET TO LES-SCHAWB AND HAVE HIS BATTERY CHARGED UP SO HE COULD MAKE THE TRIP BACK HOME. GRANDPA HAD ONLY ONE LEG. HE WENT TO HEAVEN JUNE 28th, 2004. I DEDICATE MY EBAY SELLING TO MY GRANDPA WHO GAVE HIS WONDERFUL LAST DAYS TO US. SO IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE A TRACT, IT IS ONE OF MY GRANDPAS, THAT HE SO FAITHFULLY PASSED OUT TO PEOPLE BEFORE HIS PASSING. WE LOVED HIM VERY MUCH. DIED AT AGE 94, IN HIS RIGHT MIND. OUR GRANPA, FLOY ZACHARY CANNON (IF YOU READ THIS AND WOULD LIKE ONE OF HIS TRACTS. PLEASE LET US KNOW) THANK-YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ

1985-1998, I DID FLEAMARKETS, THE ANTIQUE STREET FAIRS AND SHOWS ON THE WEST COAST. IN THE BEGINNING I WORKED ALMOST EVERYDAY. MON-VISALIA, TUES. TURLOCK, WED. ATWATER, THURS.? SANTA CRUZ, OR MODESTO, FRI. SANTA CRUZ COLUMBIA,OR SOMEWHERE. SAME WITH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. THERE WAS ALWAYS A MARKET. I MOVED BACK UP TO OREGON AND OPENED A SHOP IN DALLAS. I STILL DID THE SHOWS FOR A COUPLE OF MORE YEARS. BUT WITH A FAMILY OF A DAUGHTER AND 3 BOYS, IT WAS ROUGH. I STARTED DOING THE STRING HERE, WHICH IS NOTHING LIKE CALIFORNIA. IN 1999 I MET A DEALER IN TOLEDO, OREGON AND SHE MADE AN OFFER THAT IF I WORKED HER SHOP, I COULD HAVE SPACE IN HERS. SO I COMMUTED, UNTIL I FOUND A WONDERFUL HOUSE IN THE AREA FOR ALL THE KIDS TO HAVE THERE OWN ROOM AND I THEN OPENED A SHOP OF MY OWN AGAIN, STILL TRYING TO WORK FOR AND HELP THE OTHER FOLKS. THEY BOUGHT A MORE HIGH TRAFFIC SHOP ON 101 AND I STAYED IN TOLEDO. I CLOSED MY SHOP IN 2003 AND HAVE JUST DONE A FEW SHOWS AND FLEAS, AND NOW EBAY

Paypal accepted...If any other forms of payment are sent, besides US Postal Money Orders. Please allow the 10 day waiting period of UP TO 10 days to clear the bank, before your item or items are shipped. Postal Money Oders can be cashed right at the Post Office and I prefer them. I WILL NOT ACCEPT OVERPAYMENTS. PLEASE SEND EXACT PAYMENT ONLY, NO CHANGE WILL BE GIVEN. If multiple items are bought, because I have not gotten all of my lisitngs revised. It may reflect a way high amount for shipping. Don't worry, email me and I will fix it and send a new invoise. I am not a seller to make a profit off my buyers on shipping.

I TRY AND SHIP AS SOON AS I RECEIVE PAYMENT. HOWEVER, I USUALLY ONLY SHIP ON MONDAY'S, AS I HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD AND THAT IS THE ONLY DAY HE STAYS AT HIS OLDER SISTERS HOUSE AND IT IS A LITTLE HARD TO DEAL WITH HIM AND A BUNCH OF BOXES. SO HAVE SOME PATIENCE. I HAVE FOUND THAT FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT TAKE SO LONG TO PAY OR SEND PAYMENT, WANT ME ON THE OTHER HAND TO IMMEDIATELY SHIP. WELL THINK AGAIN...IF I HAVE TO WAIT, THEN I AM IN NO RUSH, UNLESS I HAPPEN TO BE SHIPPING AND CAN GET IT OUT, OTHERWISE AGAIN, BE PATIENT. I LIVE IN A VERY SMALL PLACE, SO I HAVE TO GET STUFF OUT OF STORAGE, TAKE PICTURES, DECRIBE, MEASURE, ETC. THEN IT GOES BACK TO STORAGE AND ONCE IT SELLS THEN I SORT IT AND WAIT FOR PAYMENT. SO ITEMS ARE NOT AT MY FINGER TIPS. IT A DRAWN OUT ORDEAL, SO AGAIN DON'T HAVE A COW, LIKE SOME PEOPLE. SINCE DOING EBAY, I HAVE TO SAY, DEALING WITH PEOPLE IN PERSON IS ALOT BETTER. WHEN I THINK I HAVE HEARD OR DEALT WITH IT ALL. I GET ANOTHER. I AM HONEST, GOD FEARING PERSON. THANKS

NO RETURNS. DUE TO THE NATURE OF SALES & EXPERIENCE OF ACCEPTING RETURNS AT SHOWS OR SHOP AND THE FEW TIMES I DID, MOST ALL RETURNS WERE SWITCHED ITEMS. NOT EVEN MINE. CUSTOMER HAD FOUND MY ITEM TO BE IN BETTER SHAPE AND BROUGHT THEIR ITEM BACK AS MINE. AFTER A FEW TIMES OF THAT HAPPENING, I DECIDED NO RETURNS, BREAK IT, YOU BUY IT. ETC. THE ITEM RETURNED WAS SWITCHED WITH A SAME DIFFERENT ITEM. THE FEW DISHONEST PEOPLE WOULD ACT LIKE IT WAS DAMAGED AND RETURN THEIR DAMAGED ITEM. LESSON'S LEARNED...NO RETURNS...SO IF YOU ARE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO READ BUYER REQUIREMENTS AND ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT ITEMS, I DO MAKE MISTAKES LIKE MOST FOLK AND I AM BY NO MEANS PERFECT. I TRY HARD TO PUT EVERY DETAIL AND DESCRIBE ANY DAMAGE. VINTAGE ITEMS ARE USED, SO DON'T EXPECT NEW, UNLESS STATED. SINCE I HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR SO LONG, I HAVE MILLIONS OF ITEMS AND THEY HAVE BEEN PACKED AS MUCH AS 20 YEARS, SO EXPECT DUST, MUSTY SMELL, EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN IN A DRY PLACE. INSURANCE IS OPTIONAL

I have found that there are alot of dishonest people in our WORLD. In fact the negative feed back that I have gotten is of those. I pride myself in honesty and do my absolute best to describe my items as I see them as as mucj=h as I know about them. I have made color mistakes, missed cracks or chips only because I have bad eyes. I really do try and do my best. This is why I ask for people to ask questions and read descriptions. SOORY IF I HAVE REPEATED MYSELF, BUT I CANNOT BEGIN TO EXPRESS MY DISAPPOINTMENT AND EXPERIENCE WITH SELLING, ESPECIALLY SINCE DOING EBAY. DON'T GET ME WRONG 99% OF PEOPLE ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, IT IS THOSE FEW THAT ARE THE PROBLEM OR PROBLEMS.
