I have been buying, collecting and using vintage for over 35 years and selling online since 1997. I come from a long line of collectors (hoarders) and some of my earliest memories involve going to garage sales & second hand stores.

I got my retail start pricing vintage/collectibles for thrift stores in the early/mid 1990s, have been a power seller on eBay, owned a brick & mortar store, ran a website, sold out of various booths at antique malls, and opened QuirkyFriendVintage (formerly capricornOnevintage) on Etsy in 2009.

Over the years I have sold to movie studios, tv shows, prop departments, set designers, magazines and museums. In addition to this website, I have an eBay store & two Etsy shops, thousands of sales and many happy customers.

I also create digital art & handmade items with a retro kitsch slant, these are currently for sale on Etsy and will be available here soon.
