What kind of clothes do you sell?
Sazz Vintage Clothing sells men's vintage clothes and accessories from the 1940's - 1970's. From rockabilly western shirts and 60s rat pack suits and jackets to disco shirts, bell bottom pants and polyester leisure suits.
Do you have a "real" storefront?
YES! We are opening a real brick an' mortar store in the Old City neighborhood of Philadelphia! Grand opening is May 3. We are located at 38 N. 3rd St. Our phone is 215.923.SAZZ (7299). While the Grand Opening is May 3, we actually hope to be open before that- at least by the last week in April. Give us a call or pop your head in and say hi.
HOURS (starting May 3):
Mon-Sat 11am-9pm
Sun. 12pm-6pm
What kind of condition are the items in?
Everything is rated on a scale of "Excellent" to "Poor".
Excellent= Deadstock/Never Worn generally w/ the original tags.
Very Good= No holes, stains, tears, rips etc..Clean & wearable!
Good= Maybe a small stain or rip but minor stuff.
Fair= Torn seam or noticeable hole.
Poor= Has problems but is too dang cool not to list.
Is everything clean?
Yes.
Jackets and suits are washed or dry cleaned unless the cost of dry cleaning outweighs the benefits (too pricey and not dirty). Ill tell you if the item hasnt been cleaned.
Shirts and pants are always washed and steamed.
I would never sell "dirty" clothing. Some stuff is so fragile that I choose to let you clean your own, but that will be noted in the listing.
Items that are "deadstock" or "Never Worn" are sold in "as-is" condition (I do not unfold these items to check them), but these items are usually amazingly clean because they have never been worn or unfolded!
How do I size myself?
Check the SIZE CHART
I know- why isnt there more XL..well, truth be told people are just bigger today! We are taller and more muscular. I offer as much in larger sizes as I can get my hands on.
Men
CHEST: Shirts are measured across the front about 1/2" from the armpit on either side and that measurement is then doubled.
PANTS: We MEASURE the waist. Do NOT use your modern pants as a size guide as modern pants are cut very roomy.
(Ive had guys claim to "wear a 34 jeans" and then when I get them to measure, they have a 36" waist!)
PLEASE know your actual measurement. Vintage cannot be bought by size tag alone.
You cannot assume that vintage will fit the same as contemporary!
I recommend a shirt fit close to or 1" bigger than your actual measurement. JACKETS should fit 2" bigger than your actual measurement (for comfort & movement).
Make sense?
Where do you get your stock?
I have no life. My waking hours are spent dreaming up new ways to find you cool stuff and my weekends are spent driving stupid hours to some auction or estate sale to actually get these dreams clothes for you!
How do I pay you?
We offer a secure credit card link where you can pay with either your Visa or Mastercard.
Or, you may choose to pay with Paypal.com but you MUST MUST MUST include a list of the items you have paid for, ex: #123 Blue Western shirt. Paypal will add the shipping cost for you but it doesn't record of what you are buying. So please make sure you add that info!
Either method will allow you to send payment in an easy, fast and secure method.
What about shipping?
I ship every business day and most Saturdays.
Basic shipping is USPS Priority Mail which is 2-3 business days to most US addresses.
Expedited shipping is thru USPS Express Mail which is generally overnight but sometimes 2nd day if you are in a remote area.
YES I ship Internationally.
YES I can ship FedEx but you must call me to place the order. There is a $10 handling fee for same-day FedEx shipments because its a pain-in-the-butt for me to do and I can't always get to the drop-box in time, so that's why you have to call me! But Im happy to try so long as I get the order no later than 4pm EST. No fee for next day FedEx orders.
Generally all orders are shipped the next buisness day at 8am.
Can I send a money order?
Yes! Money orders are a good way to go and will receive immediate shipping.
Sorry, NO cheques.
How do I pay with a money order?
Just note what items you want, email me their code # and basic description (ex: #90 Blue Mens Western (M)). I will reply with your total plus shipping and I will place them ON HOLD for you so you can send the money order. I will happily hold items for 7 days (unless otherwise specified). After that, Im not so happy.
Please- it is unfair to tell me you are mailing payment and then keep "forgetting"! If you know you aren't responsible enough to mail the money order, then dont even bother! (Do I sound bitter?) Please send the money order within 3 business days of notifying me!
Whats yer address?
Address all money orders to:
Sazz Vintage
PO Box 22497
Philadelphia, PA 19110-2497
Can I order over the phone?
Yes, due to popular demand, I now accept credit card orders over the phone.
Just call: 215.870.3387
I answer the phone at weird hours, the best time is actually after 9pm EST. So if you get my voice mail, just leave a message with your name, phone # and what you're calling about and Ill get back to you within 24 hours.
For your security, do NOT leave your credit card #.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship all over the world!
Can I "hold" an item?
Yup. You may place an item on hold for 3 days by emailing me and requesting it. If I do not hear from you in those 3 days, the item will be placed back in regular inventory.
Can I buy more than 1?
NO! Unless the item specifically says there are multiples- there is only one available! I mean...c'mon, this is vintage not the Gap...every item is unique! (I know it looks like you can change the quantity, but you really cant).
What does SOLD mean? Can I buy that item?
NO!!!! Duh! If it says SOLD it means it has gone bye-bye- outta here, someone beat you to it! Yes, physically you can place the item in your Shop Cart and pay for it- but it is SOLD and you cant have it! (why dont some people understand this fairly simple concept?)
