Terms of service
Effective date: August 2, 2026
These Terms of Service govern your use of the Third Stop Vintage website and your purchase of products from Third Stop Vintage.
Throughout these Terms, the words “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Third Stop Vintage. The words “you” and “your” refer to any visitor, customer, or other user of our website.
By visiting our website, creating an account, submitting an order, or purchasing a product from us, you agree to these Terms of Service and all policies referenced within them. Please read these Terms carefully before using our website.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not use our website or purchase products through it.
1. Online Store Terms
You must be at least the age of majority in your state of residence, or have the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian, to use this website or make a purchase.
You may not use our products, website, or services for any unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or unauthorized purpose. You may not violate any applicable federal, state, or local laws while using our website.
You may not transmit viruses, malicious code, or other harmful material through the website.
A violation of these Terms may result in the suspension or termination of your access to our website or services.
2. General Conditions
We reserve the right to refuse service, cancel an order, limit quantities, or restrict access to our website when reasonably necessary, including in cases of suspected fraud, abuse, pricing errors, inventory errors, unauthorized resale activity, or violations of these Terms.
You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, exploit, scrape, or commercially use any portion of our website without our prior written permission.
Headings within these Terms are included for convenience and do not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision.
3. Vintage, Antique, Pre-Owned, and Collectible Merchandise
Many products sold by Third Stop Vintage are vintage, antique, collectible, discontinued, pre-owned, or otherwise not newly manufactured.
These products may display normal signs of age, previous ownership, storage, handling, manufacture, or use. Such characteristics may include:
-
Surface wear, scratches, scuffs, fading, discoloration, crazing, patina, or staining
-
Small manufacturing irregularities, mold marks, bubbles, seams, inclusions, or variations
-
Wear to labels, packaging, boxes, inserts, tags, or printed materials
-
Minor chips, flea bites, roughness, repairs, missing parts, or other imperfections disclosed in the listing
-
Odors associated with age, storage, paper, textiles, or previous ownership
-
Variations in color, size, pattern placement, finish, or appearance
We make reasonable efforts to photograph and describe material condition issues. However, photographs may not show every minor imperfection, and colors may appear differently depending on lighting, camera settings, screens, and display settings.
Condition descriptions reflect our good-faith assessment and may be subjective. By purchasing vintage, antique, pre-owned, or collectible merchandise, you acknowledge that such products are generally not expected to be in new or flawless condition unless expressly described as such.
Customers should review all available photographs, measurements, condition notes, and product descriptions before purchasing.
4. Product Identification and Attribution
We make reasonable efforts to accurately identify product makers, patterns, materials, dates, origins, editions, and other characteristics.
Unless a product attribution is supported by a manufacturer’s mark, original documentation, or another definitive source, identification may be based on our research, experience, comparison, or good-faith opinion.
Terms such as “style,” “inspired,” “attributed to,” “believed to be,” “possibly,” or “unmarked” indicate that the identification is not guaranteed.
We do not guarantee third-party grading, authentication, appraisal, or future resale value unless such a guarantee is expressly stated in the product listing.
5. Product Safety and Intended Use
Vintage and pre-owned products may not meet current manufacturing, labeling, electrical, lead, food-contact, child-safety, or other modern safety standards.
Unless a listing expressly states otherwise:
-
Vintage decorative items are sold primarily for display, collection, or decorative use.
-
Vintage glassware, ceramics, cookware, barware, and serving pieces have not been independently tested for lead, cadmium, or food safety.
-
Vintage electrical products have not necessarily been rewired, inspected, or certified by a licensed professional.
-
Vintage toys and collectibles may contain small parts, sharp edges, aged materials, or other potential hazards and are not intended for unsupervised use by children.
-
Decorative items should not be used for food, beverages, candles, electrical purposes, or other functional uses unless the customer determines that such use is safe and appropriate.
You are responsible for evaluating the suitability and safety of a product before using it.
6. Product Information
We attempt to provide accurate product descriptions, measurements, photographs, prices, inventory information, and other details.
Measurements are approximate unless otherwise stated. Small differences may occur because of measuring methods, product shape, manufacturing variation, or rounding.
We do not warrant that all product information is complete, current, or error-free. We reserve the right to correct errors, update information, or cancel an affected order when necessary.
7. Availability and Quantity Limits
Many of our products are one-of-a-kind or available in limited quantities.
Placing an item in your cart does not reserve it. An item is not secured until checkout is completed and payment is accepted.
Inventory may occasionally become unavailable because of simultaneous purchases, cross-listing on another marketplace, damage discovered during fulfillment, inventory discrepancies, or other circumstances.
We reserve the right to:
-
Limit the quantity of products purchased by one person, household, account, payment method, or shipping address
-
Discontinue a product at any time
-
Cancel an order for an unavailable item
-
Restrict sales to particular people, geographic regions, or jurisdictions where permitted by law
If we cancel an order after payment has been received, we will issue a refund for the canceled item or order.
8. Orders and Acceptance
Submitting an order does not guarantee that we will accept or fulfill it.
An order is accepted when we confirm it for fulfillment or ship the merchandise. An automated order confirmation only confirms that we received your order request.
We may cancel or decline an order for reasons including:
-
Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment activity
-
Incorrect pricing or product information
-
Inventory errors
-
Shipping restrictions
-
Inability to verify customer information
-
Suspected misuse of promotions or discount codes
-
Violation of these Terms
-
Discovery of undisclosed damage before shipment
We may contact you using the email address or telephone number supplied with your order if additional information is needed.
9. Billing and Account Information
You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, billing, shipping, and account information.
You are responsible for promptly updating your information, including your email address and payment details, so that we can process transactions and contact you when necessary.
You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method submitted with your order.
We are not responsible for delays, returns, losses, or additional costs resulting from inaccurate or incomplete information supplied by the customer.
10. Prices, Taxes, and Payment
Prices are listed in United States dollars unless otherwise stated.
We reserve the right to change prices at any time without prior notice. A price change will not ordinarily affect an order that we have already accepted, except when the original price resulted from an obvious error.
Applicable sales tax will be calculated and collected during checkout when required.
Shipping charges and any applicable taxes are displayed during checkout before the order is submitted.
Discounts, promotional codes, and special offers:
-
May be subject to additional conditions
-
May not be combined unless expressly permitted
-
Have no cash value
-
May be changed, limited, or discontinued at any time
-
May be canceled when obtained or used through fraud, error, or abuse
11. Shipping
Orders are typically processed within 1–2 business days.
We currently ship within the United States. Our standard shipping service is USPS Ground Advantage, with USPS Priority Mail available as an expedited option when offered during checkout.
Shipping charges are calculated using current live USPS rates based on factors such as the package’s size, weight, destination, and selected service.
Shipping estimates are not guaranteed. Carrier delays, severe weather, holidays, service interruptions, incorrect addresses, and other circumstances outside our control may affect delivery.
Our complete Shipping Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference and applies to every order.
12. Returns, Refunds, and Cancellations
Returns, refunds, exchanges, and order cancellations are governed by our Return and Refund Policy.
Customers are responsible for reviewing that policy before purchasing. Any eligibility periods, exclusions, condition requirements, return-shipping responsibilities, restocking conditions, or damage-reporting requirements stated in our Return and Refund Policy apply to your order.
Our Return and Refund Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot legally be waived under applicable consumer-protection law.
13. Damaged Shipments
We carefully package products, but damage may occur during transit.
Customers must follow the damage-reporting procedure in our Shipping Policy or Return and Refund Policy. This may include providing photographs of:
-
The damaged product
-
The shipping box
-
Interior packaging materials
-
The shipping label
-
Any visible damage to the package
The customer must retain the product and all packaging materials until the claim is resolved, as USPS or another carrier may require them for inspection.
Failure to retain the packaging or provide requested documentation may affect our ability to pursue a carrier claim or offer a resolution.
14. Personal Information
Your submission of personal information through the website is governed by our Privacy Policy.
Our Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, disclosed, stored, and protected. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
