If you liked one item from my store, chances are, there are more that you will like. I try to use similar key words in descriptions, so go to the store and search for key words like "graphic" or "petite" or "plus" or "vintage", or, of course, by designer name, to mention some of the examples. Searching by size is also helpful, of course - I always state size in the description, so you can type in yours, and see what comes up. I usually include both types of sizes - like XL and 14 might be stated in the description together. PLEASE NOTE that due to recent increased problems with international shipments I might require an additional $10 to send packages over $50 value or heavy items, irrespective of value, via registered mail. PLEASE do not question my shipping charges, especially after the fact. They are all stated in advance, very clearly, they are usually more than actual shipping, I do not make money with shipping, instead, I have my expenses that enable me to offer you these incredible deals at super-fast turnaround times, so please make your decision before you bid. By bidding you expressly agree with the shipping charges as stated. I list only items that look like new, or ARE new, I have a great selection to choose from for my listings, and hand pick all items, so you don't have to worry about condition, unless it's a vintage item or in very few cases a very expensive item with a small defect, I sometimes make exceptions for those if they are very appealing. But 'as new' might not necessarily mean 'brand new', so if you are buying it as a present, please keep that in mind. Any questions welcome. I usually respond right away. Measurements are taken fast, so do ask to remeasure if it's a close call, or a few inches matter. I CAN ALWAYS PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, MEASUREMENTS, RE-MEASURE IF WORRIED, AND SO ON.  If an inch or so is critical, I am not responsible for clothes not fitting if you didn't double check the measurements. Please note that "excellent" condition might not necessarily mean that it is new - it means it comes across as an excellent condition item upon pretty close inspection. If it has small spot on the inside, which is not visible from the outside, or another slight defect which doesn't jump at you, that is still considered excellent condition for a non-brand new item. Please ask all questions in advance, since returns are taken on a limited basis only (see return policy below). Buy with confidence - check out my reassuring 5555+ rating! On BEST OFFERS - I am happy to provide the "Best Offer" option to my customers (note: applicable ONLY for store listings which are listed with a "Best Offer" option, NOT to auctions). Best offers could be a fun way to shop if used correctly. If I wanted to sell an item for $10, I wouldn't be putting it up for $100, so it's really not a chance to get a 90% discount. I do appreciate sensible and respectable offers only. It doesn't mean that I will accept all offers below the stated price - neither does it mean that I overprice the items in view of a definite discount. I might accept offers based on inventory turnover needs, length of item in the store, other multiple purchases made by the same customer, or similar considerations. But I do reject offers as well. I will be happy to answer any other questions related to this feature, which might be confusing to those who've never used it. Return policy: You can return your purchases of $24.95 or more in exchange for credit toward future purchases in my store, on the following termsm (please note that items under $25 purchase price are FINAL SALE): 1) Merchandise must be returned in same condition and received within 7 days, or at least mailed within 3 days of the day it was received 2) You must obtain my authorization for the return prior to shipping the item back 3) You should track your purchase, so that you can prove it was mailed if not received on my end - hasn't happened yet, but you never know 4) I will process full refund if I made a mistake in the listing or sent you wrong merchandise, otherwise, if you don't like it, it looks different than waht you expected, it doesn't fit, or wrong color you tried to match, or anything of the sort, or you just changed your mind, you will be credited purchase price only and original cost of listing will be deducted as well ($1-3.50 on average); 5) If you purchased multiple items and are returning only one, the shipping fee refunded will be the additional shipping charged per item (usually about $1.50-2), unless your item is the heaviest of all the items originally mailed by me. By returning the merchandise you agree with these terms, please do read them carefully. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: Tracking for international items sent via USPS is only wihtin US borders; beyond US borders, items cannot be tracked unless sent registered or insured mail, which is an added expense of $9 on average, and requires the statement of full value, or by other means like UPS or FedEx (the latter two charge brokerage fees, which is buyer’s full responsibility to pay). By selecting to pay regular USPS postage buyer waives all rights to file for items not received or to file any claims about missing/non-received items. Seller will not be responsible for items not arriving at the destination beyond showing proof of mailing.   Further changes to international packages include the following: Due to inability to process international shipment without additional steps requiring forms and post office visits, International shipments are limited to once a week only, at the end of the week, so there might be a slight delay in mailing your package even if paid for promptly.  Furthermore, flat rates stated for international packages presume that items will fit in a flat-rate envelope; if a given country, like Italy, doesn’t have flat-rate priority arrangements with USA, seller reserves the right to revise the stated flat rate to reflect actual shipping cost plus handling fees, included in the original flat rate quoted in the auction. As for US, international shipping charges include handling and are not negotiable. All rates are stated in advance in the auction for all domestic, international and Canadian shipments, so please review and do not bid if you are not comfortable paying the charges.   MEASUREMENTS: Bust/chest is measured seam to seam point to point underarm, laid flat, unstretched, and then doubled for the full round measurement. If the jacket is an open type, and measurement is hard to give that way, the measurement given is for the back width, seam to seam, underarm. Hips are measured in the widest spot below the waistline, lied flat, seam to seam, then doubled. Shoulders are measured seam to seam on the very top of the item. If no seams are available, there is only a total sleeve length measurement from neckline to end of cuff. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam to end of cuff. If no seams are available (like in raglan sweaters), the sleeve is measured from neckline on the side to the end of cuff. Length is measured from the based of the collar to end of hem on the bottom, lied flat. Measurements are taken fast, and could be a bit off, especially on length, so please ask to remeasure if it’s a tight fit. Rise: for pants, from the bottom of the crotch seam to the top of the waistline, in the front. Inseam: for pants, from the bottom of the crotch seam along the inside of the leg to the end of the hem.   Small print - please read! f you have a 0 or less than 90% positive rating, you MUST contact me immediately upon the end of auction about payment, or pay right away, otherwise, after 24 hours, the next-in-line will be contacted. All merchandize is treated by me with respect and is free of smells, stains, etc. I only list things in very good+/excellent/mint condition, unless otherwise noted for rare items. Mailings are tied to ends of auctions assuming paypal payment and as such are guaranteed prompt only upon prompt payment. I strive to make very accurate descriptions but cannot be held responsible for missing information - I never ommit information on purpose, and will be happy to answer any questions. Authenticity, if an issue, is always guaranteed, I will never knowingly sell you a fake product. I never withhold information intentionally, and some descriptions can be short because time is of essence, so please ASK - I can ALWAYS provide additional measurements, explanations and pictures/closeups. All sales are "as is" and are final, unless I made a mistake in the listing. If you are not insuring the item, and item does not get to your destination, I will not be responsible beyond showing you the receipt of mailing , stating your zip/town on or around the date of payment.  Tracking is not provided for each item, is used at seller's discretion, and has to be requested if buyer insists on tracking the item.  Shipping charges are noted for US only, and include handling charges, which vary depending on the item, and are as stated in the auction under "shipping and handling".  If shipping turns out to be lower than anticipated, no refunds of difference are granted, no exceptions. I gladly combine shipping for multiple purchases if shipped simultaneously, and even offer free shipping on many items if purchased in quantity. If free shipping is offered for additional items, the highest shipping charge will apply.  Lots are priced differently for shipping purposes. Items are from pet free and smoke free environment, so you are safe here! I MUST be contacted or paid within 2 days of the end of auction, if by paypal, which is preferred. COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY. If you are still waiting for other auctions of mine to close, or for funds to clear, or want to send in payment, it's fine, just let me know that's what you are doing. Good luck, and thanks for visiting Place a Bid!
