• DTMV orders are ready to ship in 1-3 business days. Each item will be carefully wrapped and packed to protect its one-of-kind vintage integrity.

• I ship from Ohio, USA. I strive to ship in the most economical way and use simple packing materials to reduce excess waste. Etsy's calculated shipping tool allows me to carefully measure and weigh each item so the buyer does not overpay on shipping.

• Delivery method is chosen by the buyer upon checkout. Free Shipping items ship USPS Ground.

• Insurance is the option of the buyer and is not included the calculated shipping price. Please note if you want insurance before purchasing.

• Due to increasing shipping prices, International orders will now have a handling fee of $5.00.

All of our items come from a smoke-free, chemical free home. We do NOT use chemical cleaners, perfumes, detergents with fragrance or dyes, or dryer sheets to “freshen up” our vintage or antique items. Any odor detected on an item is its acquired or natural odor due to age, or the place it was stored in for many years; fragrances used by a previous owner may also be embedded in an item. When needed we air out any strong smelling items in the shade and carefully launder or spot clean garments. We love going green by purchasing and selling vintage and antique goods!

We do not reserve items at Down to Mars! Thank you for looking :)

I carefully examine each piece upon listing to ensure I list any potential flaw in the item's description.

I rate items:
MINT/DEADSTOCK/NOS: Perfect and pristine as originally made; shows no signs of use or wear. Deadstock or NOS (New Old Stock): item was likely never used/worn at all, tags may be attached.

EXCELLENT: Item shows typical signs of use or wear due to occasional use and very minor, unnoticeable flaws.

GOOD: Item is usable/wearable but has some surface flaws that don’t detract from the integrity of the piece.

FAIR: Numerous noted flaws, Item may be restored to good or even very good condition with significant repairs.
