What We're Seeking

We've divided our list of wants into three categories: Most Wanted, Interesting Items, and Unwanted.  Our Most Wanted list includes items we are always looking for.  Interesting Items include types of items that might be tempting, but that we already have plenty of.  The Unwanted category includes items we do not need more of.

Each category is subdivided into a list of labels, and types of items.  Note that an item with a label that matches one on our list overrides the type-of-item list.  If the item you want to sell is not in any category, please email to ask if we're interested, and we'll place it in the list for future reference.  So without further ado, here's the list:

    • How To Sell

    There are two ways to proceed in selling items to us.  With both procedures, all shipping is the responsibility of you, the seller.  The more in-depth selling procedure earns you more money.  It is as follows:

    1. The seller emails us with a list of garments for sale, including the following details: Each of these details are required for each item.  We reply, telling you which items we are interested in.
    2. The seller sends us a box or boxes of items.  Do not send items that we are not interested in.
    3. We sort through, send an email confirming contents and condition, and mail you a check.

    The simple selling procedure takes less time on your part but earns less.  It is as follows:

    1. The seller emails us with a list of items and prices.  Descriptions of items, including every condition flaw noted are required for each item.  We reply, telling you which items we are interested in.
    2. The seller sends us a box or boxes of items, with or without a price list.  Do not send items that we are not interested in.
    3. We sort through, and send an email with total price offered.  The seller verifies and accepts or rejects the offer.
    4. We return unwanted items (if any) along with a check for the total purchase of the garments.

    For sellers with large quantities (500+ items), in-person appointments can be arranged. We especially are seeking clothing dealers from times past with new-old stock to sell. If you sold clothing in the 1970s or before and you have some left, email us.

    Do not expect a reply from us if:
