All About
Neverending Story Vintage
NAME: Dorothy
Where are you located?
- Upstate NY
What is the meaning behind your shop name?
- It's inspired by my all-time favorite movie, The Neverending Story. Vintage really is like a neverending story, and we keep the story going by treasuring vintage through selling and shopping.
How long have you been selling online?
- I started selling on ebay back in 1999, before people used PayPal! I used good ole-fashioned money orders! Since then I've sold vintage on and off, sometimes for long periods of time, sometimes taking a break. It's one of my favorite things to do though!
Besides Instagram, where else do you sell?
- I've sold on ebay and Etsy, but I've decided to stick to just IG because it avoids the annoying fees that third-party selling sites have.
What's your favorite decade and why?
- Tough call. I like every decade for different reasons. The glamour of the 50's, the music of the 60's, the clothes of the 70's, the bold, anything-goes of the 80's...it's hard to pick a favorite.
Why do you love vintage?
- For as long as I can remember, I've always preferred vintage over new. It's not because I tell myself I have to love vintage; it just comes naturally that I always opt for old, pre-loved stuff. Even in grade school I used to love wearing crazy vintage clothes. I think the quality is better than today's stuff. I love the feel of worn-in clothing. And the decor is just right up my alley. I think the only thing I don't buy vintage is underwear!
