After we receive this information, we will email you to confirm your order and provide you with the total for your purchase including your shipping costs. We will then place your item on "HOLD" until we receive your payment. It will then be held specifically for you until we receive your payment. Payment must be received within 7 days of placing your order. If for some reason or another we do not receive payment within 7 days we will take the "HOLD" off the item and it will once again be available for sale on the website.

Your satisfaction is very important to us here at Memphis Vintage. We know that sometimes it is necessary to return an item. You may return an item for any reason except patterns, lingerie and sale items as long as the following conditions are met:

That is 24 hours from the time that the item was received by you as is shown by the USPS tracking number. Please email or call us within that time frame and we will note that you will be sending the item back. No refunds or credits if the item is sent back without prior authorization.

  • The item must be returned to us in the exact same unworn condition as it was sent and the inventory tag must be attached. Important - please do remove the inventory tag. If these conditions are not met, we will be unable to refund you your money.

  • We must receive the item you are returning to us within 7 days from when you received it as noted on the USPS Tracking Number.

    Vintage Sizes & Measuring Information:

    If you are new to vintage fashions then you may not be aware that vintage sizes are not the same as modern sizes. A modern size 10 is much larger than a vintage size 10. That is why checking the measurements on the item description are very important. A quick tip for checking measurements is to compare a garment of yours, that fits you well, against the measurements on the item description. Lay your garment on a flat surface, smooth it out and take a fabric tape measure and measure the following areas.

    Always remember to take those measurements and double them. For example If the bust measures 18" across with your tape measure, double that and you get 36" for your correct bust measurement. Of course lengths such as sleeves and dress lengths are not doubled. Only bust, waist and hip measurements are doubled. Write down your measurements and compare them to our site and you will see if this is something that will work for you. Remember to please allow a few inches in your measurements for ease of fit.

    Shoes are measured with a fabric tape measure on the inside of the shoe from the heel to the toe. The width of shoes is measured on the outside sole at the widest point. The best thing to do is to measure a pair of your shoes and compare that measurement to the one in the item description. Please email us if you have any questions on measurements.

    Vintage clothing is not new (unless it is specifically stated on the web page that it is new, "deadstock" or "old new stock") and these vintage garments will show signs of previous normal wear. Each piece of vintage clothing is unique and truly one of a kind. Unless it is new, it will not be perfect so please do not expect a perfect unworn garment. These are vintage / antique pieces and each has had a "previous life". We try to list any flaws that we see on the description page. But if you have any questions about a particular item, just email us and we will be happy to answer any questions.

    Here is a chart that was developed by a group of great vintage clothing sellers on eBay. This will help explain our rating system.
