Frequently Asked Questions
Is your name Audrey?
Nope, it’s Jessie. Audrey was my grammie’s name and I will happily answer to it
Do you buy or consign vintage?
No consignment whatsoever. Happy to buy your vintage directly from you
I want to sell you my vintage, what should I do?
The first and best step is to email me with a sampling of what you have. Let me know if you’re interested in donating or selling and if coming to the shop is best or if you’re comfortable with me coming to you. Happy to make house calls. From there we can set up a buying appointment. If you don’t email, please call the shop and give me a brief synopsis of what you have and we can go from there.

What are you looking for?
This is hard to answer! Trends are so hard to predict but I love unique and weird stuff.
What do you pay for vintage?

Can I do a pop-up or Hold an event at your shop?
Probably! As we grow more & more comfortable in our newly expanded 4,000sqft space, our offerings will also be expanding. We plan on hosting a monthly pop-up market for local makers. Please email us to get on our vendor specific email list. We are working on setting up an application on the website but in the meantime, shoot me an email with all your deets: medium, space usage, event ideas, dates or times preferred, social media presence?
Special note: I’m not opposed to other vintage clothing vendors popping up but it can only be an outdoor event due to my clothing/fabric protection procedures.
Where do you get all your stuff from?
Well, I can’t tell you any specifics, but honestly from anywhere and everywhere. I will also travel for vintage and have done whole cross country road trips for goodies. Auctions, estate sales, digging, abandon buildings (with permission), garage sales, etc. since opening a brick and mortar though, it’s mostly via people calling me and setting up appointments
Do you do private shopping appointments?
Absolutely! If you’d prefer a solo experience, are traveling from out of town when I’m not typically open, or want to have a fun time with just you and your friends. Shoot me an email and we can talk shop.
Can I have you hunt something down for me?
Heck yes! Let me do all the hunting and heavy lifting for you. I have a vintage Rolodex at the shop for just this purpose. Find my digital Rolodex on our home page or hoot me an email with specifics and the best way to contact you.
What’s with the clog out front at the shop?
First off, I love a roadside attraction! Second, I bought it from a gal on FB Marketplace who had it in her backyard. Her friend found it for her a few years back. Thirdly, since it’s been home here, we’ve deciphered it was once in the kids play area on the local IKEA. Fourthly, it’s kind of an homage to my 15 years as a server.
