   1.  Cottage and Castle Antiques and the merchandise we offer

Cottage and Castle Antiques is an established antique business located in Seaside, Oregon.  The shop is housed in an old church building where we offer our customers a large selection of vintage items, collectibles and decorative accessories.  We have also earned a fine reputation with our many satisfied eBay customers.  Starting in April, 2000, Cottage and Castle will offer this same quality merchandise and service online.  The items for sale on this site are also being offered to our customers at the Seaside, Oregon location.  Therefore merchandise availability will always have to be confirmed before accepting payment for an order.  Stock will be changing on a daily, even hourly, basis!  However every effort will be made to maintain an ample supply of quality and interesting items!
