Our Story

Here's a little about us and how we ended up in this business...

Like many other online retailers, we have been in other businesses and professional lines of work and felt it was time for a change. When we decided to semi-retire and go into business together, we did not want just any business. We searched for months to find products that would make people happy—make them smile.

We decided on a business model that would provide a large variety of products and also offer our customers quality items for themselves or as gifts for all occasions: from weddings to graduations; from newborns to retirements; from anniversaries to vacations; from pets to family and more.

We buy items from estate sales, yard sales, and second-hand stores.

We started by selling at the three largest swap meets in Las Vegas before relocating to Oregon to begin selling exclusively online.

We call ourselves "Ambassadors of Light & Love" since what we do brings light and happiness to all who have the opportunity to be exposed to our wonderful variety of goods.

The Golden Rule

We run our business by the Golden Rule: The principle of treating others as oneself would wish to be treated. In that vein, we have a 100% Satisfaction Policy—We will ensure that you are pleased with your purchase(s) and interaction with us. 

As a result, we have a 100% Positive Feedback Rating on eBay since 1999.
