Thanks

Today is Thanksgiving here in the US, and I am more than just a little thankful for the people I've met selling vintage clothing.

Since 1999 I have sold to several Parisian designers; an Aztec princess and school teacher; a woman working in the Pentagon (9/11/01) who apologized for paying me late for a suit after part of her workplace was destroyed; a mayor's wife; a mayor; an opera singer; my neighbor; a woman in her 80s who wanted to relive an event from her youth; a girl of 13 who wanted to experience what her great grandmother had experienced; a skiing star; my best friend. You have a lot of fascinating stories to tell.

I had a decent opinion of human nature prior to starting the business, and having only a couple of truly dishonest and unreasonable customers in over ten years pretty well proves to me that we're a decent lot. My most sincere thanks.
