How to Buy Curated Vintage Online

A Curated Vintage Discovery Platform, Simplified

Foundry is designed to make discovering vintage feel effortless and considered. Rather than overwhelming you with endless listings, we curate a focused selection of one-of-a-kind pieces and present them in one thoughtfully designed space.

Here’s how it works:

1. We Source & Curate

Every item featured on Foundry is hand-selected for its quality, authenticity, and timeless appeal. We focus on pieces that feel relevant now while carrying the character of their past.

No mass uploads. No fillers. Every piece earns its place.

2. You Discover

Browse Foundry as you would a collection—not a catalog. Each item includes detailed descriptions, condition notes, and imagery to help you make a confident decision.

Because all items are vintage or pre-owned, inventory is limited and availability changes often.

3. Purchase Securely

Foundry operates as a discovery-first marketplace.

When you’re ready to purchase, you’ll click “Buy on X” and be redirected to the official listing to complete checkout. This allows you to benefit from:

• Secure checkout
• Buyer protection
• Real-time inventory accuracy

All transactions are completed through trusted third-party platforms such as eBay.

4. Shipping & Returns

Shipping, returns, and order updates are handled directly through the platform where the purchase is completed, NOT on Foundry. Specific details can always be found on the product’s third-party listing.

5. One-of-a-Kind by Design

Every piece you see on Foundry is hand-selected by a real person. We spend hours digging through trusted vintage sellers and established resale marketplaces to surface the rare, well-made, and genuinely special pieces that are usually buried in the noise.

We don’t warehouse inventory, process payments, or handle shipping. When you find something you love, you’re redirected to the original marketplace to complete your purchase directly with the seller.

Foundry may earn a small commission through affiliate partnerships when you shop through our links. This never changes the price you pay — it simply supports the work that goes into curating and maintaining the collection.

**All descriptions, styling notes, and editorial commentary on Foundry are original and created in-house. Listings are added manually and reflect availability at the time of curation; prices and inventory are always controlled by the third-party marketplace and may change.**

Foundry does not use automated tools, bots, or scraping software to collect listing data. We believe discovery should be thoughtful, human, and intentional — not algorithmic.

In a world of endless scrolling, Foundry exists to make vintage feel considered again.
