Our Service Pledge

I strive to give the best service possible to my customers. I do want them to be happy with their purchases. I travel to the UK frequently to bring home unique items to offer for sale to my Ruby Lane Customers.

About Us

Robbins' Roost Antiques offers a delightful array of unique treasures found by Barbara herself on her frequent trips to the UK. Barbara is now a retired English teacher, but she started her business while teaching, simply out of love for the products, and the trips she could take while purchasing for her shop.
We specialize in early jewelry (earlier the better), including a specialization in mourning and sentimental pieces. We also carry leather bound books, including Dickens' first editions, silver items, portrait miniatures, and other smalls. We have been in business since 1992, and online with Ruby Lane since 2,000. We strive to give the best customer service possible. We do want you to love your purchase as much as we love it.
Note: As of November 14, 2019, Ruby Lane is required by law to collect sales tax from 35 states, and this number may grow. Ruby Lane is also charging a "handling" fee for the huge amount of paperwork that collecting and sending sales tax to the various states will entail. Ruby Lane will collect these funds from the total amount of a sale after the sale has been finalized from the accounts of the sellers. Robbins' Roost has only been adding sales tax for TN, as has previously been required, so from now on, sales tax will need to be added on to the final purchase price if you live in one of the States which requires this, plus TN. Please wait for this tax to be added to your sale before you pay, otherwise it will be added on as an extra payment. Robbins' Roost does apologize for this and begs the patience from the buyers for her, and for all Ruby Lane Sellers as we make this adjustment.

Robbins' Roost does accept layaways personally, and the terms vary according to the price of the item. Email Robbins' Roost for terms on a specific piece. Ruby Lane has now started accepting layaways on the shop's behalf, and that is fine, but in many cases, if the payments are made via PayPal or charge card, Robbins' Roost must decline the layaway, because of the 4.5% charge. We do accept personal checks or money orders, or any way that does not charge us on layaway payments. We do accept PayPal and charge cards, when we are receiving full payment.
