Furnishings By Adam

Furnishings by Adam is historically located in a seven room  house in the center of the quaint and very old town of Hackettstown, nestled in a valley in Warren County, New Jersey.  The establishment has been serving those many individual devotees' of the old and the collectible for the past five years. An overview of the seemingly inexhaustible number of items in the shop could be dubbed "eclectic", although special interest and much pleasurable time is utilized in finding and obtaining that special quality piece of antique furniture, and very fine porcelain and elegant glass treasure.

This sole proprietor, whose family goes back at least five generations in this small town, was born a mere four blocks from the present shop, and was raised in Hackettstown, when the top population was approximately 2500 neighbors. There have been some changes in the ensuing years, and a storehouse of memories have been accumulated, many of which are intermittently brought to mind by the wealth of contents of the shop.

It appears we do attempt to capture some fragments of our past which tend to give us a sense of security and being. Please take your time and browse through the shop, exploring, in many instances a by-gone era, which may be part of my own past, but more importantly, possibly part of your or your families' past.  Thank you for your visit.

Flexibility has proven to be a good guideline for the satisfaction of both the customer and the proprietor. Simple common sense and fairness govern the shop policies:

1.  Merchandise usually not to be returned unless item has defects not previously made known to the buyer or if damaged in mailing.

2.  If a return is allowed, moneys will not be refunded-buyer may utilize previous amount of purchase for credit in the shop.

3.  When a deposit is left on a "short-term hold" item, a pick up date will be established.

4.  Deposit moneys will not be returned if buyer decides not to buy but may be used as credit toward another purchase in the shop.

5.  There will be a charge of $20.00 for returned checks.

6.  Lay-away policies differ somewhat from the foregoing-please check that upcoming section.

7.  For items shipped by priority mail, buyer is responsible for shipping and insurance cost-money orders, checks, Visa, Mastercard or American Express accepted.  Check shipments will be held until check clears. You may call me at 908-852-4385, or fax me at 908-852-4889 with card info if you wish. Please email me when you are faxing so I may keep my line open.

8. Unless otherwise noted in descriptive text, all items are free
from defects.

9.  As previously mentioned, these are just basic guidelines-each individual policy may be discussed and negotiated at the customers request.
 

We all need some flexibility at times in relation to acquiring  one of our needs or desires.  All are welcome to participate in the shop's liberal lay-away plan:

1.  Most of the previously noted shop policies apply to the lay-away plan.

2.  In this plan, there is no set deposit amount-the buyer decides what deposit amount with which to start.

3. There are no set time frames for making payments-as are amount of payments-keeping a consistent dialogue is enough.

4.  Omit #3 in the general shop policies as there are no beforehand pay-off or pick up dates set.

5.  Again moneys deposited or paid over a period of time will not be returned if buyer decides not to take the item but full credit is applied equal to the full amount paid thus-far.
