Pricing
·
Decodame.com reserves the right to
change any prices at any time.
·
Prices shown on this website are ‘net’.
Net price means the price shown on our website is
our lowest trade price. There are no additional trade discounts available
for dealers, architects or designers. We have found that this policy
works well, as designers and collectors can quickly determine if a piece in
in their budget and make an informed decision to buy or look for something
else that may better suit their needs and budget. If time is spent emailing
back and forth, much time can be lost and an item could be sold to another
client in the meantime. This net pricing policy is for everyone’s benefit.
·
Items are final sale. We do no send
items out on approval.
·
We try to buy merchandise in the best
available condition, or to restore it to perfection, but occasionally we buy
items that have flaws that we do not restore. These items are always noted
as such and are priced accordingly. Please do not ask for additional
discounts for the flaws, as we have already discounted the item. Typically,
age and patina on a vintage item are expected and desired. Remember, you are
buying an item that is most likely 80 to 100 years old or more.
· We
want you to be confident in your decision. We also want your repeat
business! We are happy to supply additional pictures and information on
items that you are interested in. We do our best to accurately describe the
size and condition of each item. We note overall condition in general terms
and we are happy to supply photos in larger format for your inspection.

are antique or vintage, circa 1800s to 1970s.

Do not expect to receive a new item!

Condition is noted for each item and priced accordingly. We do our best to
purchase merchandise in excellent condition, however, these items are
vintage or antique and will show their age. If we have had an item restored
or repaired, or know of any prior restoration work done, we will note it in
the description.

In the antique and auction world, it is
acceptable to have up to 30% of a piece repaired before affecting its value.
Items are
available for inspection, by appointment only.
