Vinted now offers $0.99 shipping within the US.

They've had free shipping for a while and we all knew it was a temporary thing that was eventually going to change. I am so pleased to hear that they only changed it to 99 cent shipping. This is for every carrier they offer including USPS, FedEx, and SpeedX.

New buyers will get free shipping on their first order.

Shoppers who have bought on the platform before will get 99 cent shipping.

Sellers who are just starting out will offer free shipping for their first few sales.

Established sellers should already see 99 cent shipping on their listings.

$1 for shipping is still an amazing bargain. May it last for a very long time.

The Queen Ester pattern of dinnerware was made between 1950 - 1954 by Homer Laughlin. Here is the open sugar and cereal bowl.

Not the dishes!

I get a lot of enjoyment out of finding furniture in storage units that I can sell locally for low affordable prices.

This dresser is vintage and solid wood but it is really scratched up. I sold it locally today for $15. A lot of people can't even afford Walmart furniture anymore so they will happily grab a scratched up dresser for $15 because it's still solid and functional. The people that buy these pieces are the most kind, friendly and appreciative buyers I've ever encountered.

I dare say I love doing this more than I ever loved selling and shipping glass art, and I adore glass art.

It is indeed a beautiful day to grill some meat.

Primitives by Kathy, a company based out of Lancaster, PA, created this fun 13-1/2" round handled tray with both functionality and design in mind. It's rustic, primitive, a little farm-meets-cottage, while being sturdy and roomy enough to hold all your meats and sauces. That means one trip from the kitchen to the grill!

Hop on over to my eBay shop to bring this fun tray home!

This a vintage Wagner cast iron dutch oven with handpainted details. Would you pay this much at a thrift store?

Never have I seen so many vintage Crock Pots at the thrift store at one time. Usually there might be one - but there were 5 this time. We have a big one and I'm not shipping something this big and heavy, so I left them all behind (Goodwill, Hanover PA).

Would you use a vintage slow cooker?
