I prefer to specialize in 20th Century vintage items that predate 1968. Nearly every item I offer is used unless it is specified to be New Old Stock or Dead Stock. Barring that exception, every item shows some degree of wear. Being a stickler for condition, I note all flaws and think it’s a good idea for us to all be on the same page when I tell you what kind of shape I think a vintage treasure is in. My scale is as follows.
*New Old Stock/Dead Stock*
These items were never used and often retain their original price or inventory tags.
*Mint*
Shows no signs of use or wear.
*Excellent*
These pieces have slight to moderate wear but normally not seen unless using a loupe or under lighted magnification. The piece has no repairs, all stones are intact and no broken parts. Stones can show some very light wear and perhaps some tiny nicks.
*Very Good*
There will be moderate wear, usually on the reverse will be noted or shown by photos in the listing. If needed some proper repairs or perhaps stone replacements could have been made. Some of the stones may be discolored and can show wear, scratches and tiny nicking. Some stones may be loose in the mounting. Still most wear will not be visible unless you use a loupe.
*Good*
These items have heavy wear overall, but you can still wear them with pride. No broken parts. Could have some chipping on the metal or stones that can be seen without using a loupe or lighted magnification. There also may be discolored and/or missing stones.
*Fair*
These items show heavy wear and need TLC. Sometimes these will be more rare pieces that can be restored to very good condition if desired. They may have broken parts. All this will be noted in the listing.
*As Found*
Items I may not have the time or inclination to repair myself. I still find them unique or highly collectible and wanted to share them with you anyway.
Thank you for your interest,
AlexSandra
