I've been in the antiques and collectibles business for over 30 years. We had several large floor spaces in Riverfront Antiques in Napa CA. We did several Antique shows and fairs every year. The internet happened and we transitioned to selling exclusively on the "net". We still love to travel and a couple of times a year we hit the road and wander all over the northwest corner of the United States. We cannot pass up a Antique Mall or Shop without at least taking a quick look.

After almost 3 1/2 years here on Ruby Lane, we are encouraged. The customers we've met are pleasant and enthusiastic. We are making our experience here a success. We are excited and very pleased by the response from our customers all over the world. We try to add fresh merchandise daily. We do not keep old merchandise in the shop. We move it on. If you see an item that has been on your wish list for awhile, email with your best offer. Many times, we accept that offer. However, please keep in mind that we don't acquire our merchandise for pennies. When making an offer, please be realistic. Offers of 30 to 50% off will not be accepted. Also, check our sale items, many times I mark them down drastically before removing them. I've had several emails asking "is this item available?" If it is in our shop and not marked sold, or sale pending, it is for sale and can be shipped quickly.

After many requests we want to add that yes, we do ship internationally on some items. Feel free to contact us to see if the item can be shipped internationally and we usually are happy to oblige. Paypal only on International orders. Also, if the item is listed at FREE SHIPPING, that does not apply on International orders.

PLEASE NOTE: We accept paypal. That is our only means of accepting credit payments. Please, paypal within 24 hours of purchase. IF you are having difficulty making that payment, please contact Paypal. If you are having a problem making a purchase, the Ruby Lane customer service help desk is the best on the web. They will be happy to help you.
