  About Me:
  My parents,brothers and sisters escaped from Cambodia ,seeked rescue in Refugee camp in Thailand near Cambodian border 1979, while Khmer rouge resistances still fought with Vietnamese-Cambodian coalitions. On November, 1980, my whole family was brought to the United States by Lutheran Church. We had nothing started out. I helped with making ends meet during my high school
  years, by cleaning the houses of elderly church members.I was given used stuffs to bring home.
  In college, I worked for Antiques college mall. That was when I fall in love with antiques or Vintages at very early age. Even after making good income as software developer, I still do treasure hunting at Goldwills,salvation army,yard sale,auction ,antique shops etc
  After serious car accident 2011,I was asked to go on long term disability. I refused. 2016. I was let go. My income was decreased dramatically and monthly medical bills pile up.Thankfully, Etsy came to the rescue for selling my collection. Every sale I make, I hope my customers are excited as I am.I love estate sale. Your purchase helps my treasure hunting addiction. I don’t really make money on ceramic potteries, glasswares as shipping cost and packing materials are high. It just a labor of love. Thank you for browsing.Bunthy
