At Those Were The Days our meticulously trained in house buying team have years of experience in the industry. When we purchase a piece for our collection we always select it very carefully and inspect it for its condition, quality and craftsmanship.

 We inspect every piece of vintage we find to determine its authenticity, and our multi-tiered authentication processes ensure that pieces are evaluated at least twice before an item is added to our collection and goes on sale. 

 Our vintage pieces are dated based on our extensive knowledge of vintage fashion, our research and our vast experience of dating and working with vintage products. 

 We also love to find out as much as we can about the life and history of our pieces and endeavour to discover their provenance when we can.
