Why EVE? – We have extensive experience of trading in antiques and collectables on Etsy for over fifteen years. We have sold online for over twenty five years and have been in global retail for over thirty five years working in the US, the Middle East and all over Europe. We ship thousands of parcels, of all shapes and sizes, flawlessly all over the world every year. We carry perhaps the biggest individual online selection of always at least 10000+ vintage and antique items sourced throughout Europe in our shops on Etsy and our own website. We offer a no quibble refund policy, even if you just change your mind.
PRICE MATCH – Have you found the same item in the same condition cheaper elsewhere? Give us a shout and send us a link to the item and we’ll see what we can do. Where possible we will try to match or even beat our competitors’ prices.
SHIPPING DISCOUNTS – We have 1000’s of items in our Etsy stores and you will generally only pay postage on the heaviest item you buy. The rest, if they individually weigh less than 1kg each, are very often sent free (heavy items do incur an extra fee). Discounts will be automatically applied at checkout for multiple item orders. Shop across our two stores and we will combine postage and find the very best postage deal we can for you. Find out more about our shipping procedures, policies and pricing here: https://www.europeanvintageemporium.com/postage
PACKAGING ??? Where possible we use recycled or recyclable packaging (All new packaging options are available at checkout for an extra cost). Sometimes this is not possible; For example, paper tape will not stand up to the rigours of international shipping. We are though constantly evolving our business practices to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Did you know Etsy offset carbon emissions on all sales? In partnership with ecologi we also plant a tree for every sale we make on Etsy. You can find out more about this initiative here: https://www.europeanvintageemporium.com/environmentally-friendlier-business/
POLISHING / WAXING / TINT ??? We sell everything as we find it but we offer a range of polishing, waxing and finishing services. Get in touch if you would like to discuss giving your purchase a makeover! Prices start from 10 Euros for small items.

* Note. Postage from France falls into bands. Up to 2kg is a reasonable cost but anything over 2kg gets expensive. The more expensive bands are 2-5kg, 5-10kg, 10-20kg and 20-30kg. So when purchasing multiple orders, we can sometimes make savings over and above automatic postage discounts applied at checkout. For example, if you buy 4 items weighing 2kg each (allowing 2kg for packaging) we can pack those items into a 10kg package. Automatic discounts applied at checkout are usually pretty close but if you are considering multiple purchases and especially from more than one of our shops get in touch with details of the items you are considering buying and we will let you know if we can do any better on postage.
