Gonna revise what I said earlier...I always get suspicious when they use the word 'vintage'.
Exactly what does vintage mean?
Always good to ask questions before you buy, not after. Just sayin. antique is at least 100 years old, anything less is considered vintage.

Strictly speaking, what percentage of true "antiques" does the average antique store or mall have on display? In my experience, most of the items are better described as "vintage" or "collectible" so I take all those terms with a grain of salt. They mean different things to different people.
