We'd love to see what you do with this stuff (rainbow PVC wrapped copper, new old stock).
-------------------------------------------------
- Opting for 100% secondhand products & packaging eliminates new manufacturing emissions entirely.
- Extending the lifespan of existing materials delays/averts end-of-life emissions from recycling, waste, and composting.
- Ground shipping reduces emissions by 90% or more vs. air-based shipping, according to EPA.gov.
We can all feel good about choosing the most sustainable goods available: the ones that already exist. #creativesupply #reuse #telephonewire

Shipping
The Fine Print• 100% secondhand packaging
• intentionally slow in-house service levels
• ground shipping only
This is climate-competent commerce, and we talk a bit more about each of these strategies on our 'official' shipping policy page:
-
Proactive Satisfaction + Refunds
Refund policyWe have adopted a 'generally generous' approach to fulfilling many of our product listings, as sending a wee bit extra can avoid costly errors & 'fix it' shipments (besides, we find most folks appreciate the occasional freebie).
.
That said, if you would prefer to avoid the extras, we will gladly rightsize or downsize your order on request (product price would remain the same because more labor + less product = wash). If you prefer this option, please include a detailed order note to specify the quantity you wish to recieve (i.e. 'please send precise count of 7 for XYZ product').
.
As a rule, we discourage returns - but we also don't abide crappy customer experiences. To initiate issue resolution in the event that we miss the boat with your order (gaps happen!), head to our refund policy page (linked here - and at the bottom of any page) to get started.
'This is a phenomenal shop! Every little detail screams "love, care, quality, reduce, repurpose, reuse, upcycle!" Cannot recommend highly enough! I was blown away! My favorite new shop of 2022!'
