Vlad’s Antiques offers delivery ONLY within the Melbourne area and we do NOT directly deliver interstate, this is individual’s responsibility to organize your own transportation, we have included numerous carriers with their direct information for you to make all the necessary queries to.

Melbourne Customers:

          All the deliveries are made directly by me so I will handle the piece from start to finish, which will avoid double handling and any un-necessary damage to your item.  Delivery times we can arrange to suit individual needs and as shown bellow we could offer FREE or discounted delivery depending on the final value the items receives. 

It is important to point out that we do not look to make additional profits on the delivery fee its there to cover the time and basic wear and tear of the truck to get the piece to you, so if this does not suit you DON’T bid, as I have no time for time wasters.

Delivery fee is set at a very LOW rate of only $60.00 and is on a sliding scale as shown bellow.

·        $1.00 - $999.00    = $60.00

·        $1,000.00 +          = FREE

Please be advise this price may vary depending on the pieces size and this will be clearly shown in the items listing, e.g. Great big wardrobes, oversized sideboards, shop counters and etc.

And lastly to all of my rural customers we do not deliver outside of the Melbourne boundaries so if you are not sure please call or email me and ill be happy to assist you.

Pick up is also available to you between 10.00am – 5.00pm daily.

P.N. DON’T ASSUME ANYTHING ASK ME DIRECLTY IF YOU ARE UNSURE.

Interstate Customers:

P.N. Do not leave your quotes for the last “Minute” as all the items end Sunday night, give your self plenty of time to make a sound decision.

Interstate buyers, as stated its your responsibility to organize your own transportation to get the piece to you, I have numerous carriers details listed bellow who will fight for your business, but there are plenty of others out there in you area who could do better so do check around.

  We can deliver to a carrier’s depot at the above costs within the Melbourne area as some wont come out to me and will charge you three times more, so this is also an option for you to consider.

Vlad's Antiques was established in 2005 as a small hobby business, which has quickly grown into an obsession that has taken over my life to such extent, that in 2007 I quit my career in Marketing to pursue my passion for Antiques full time and never looked back.

      Our rapid expansion has seen my wife also come on board to try and help me cope with ever growing customer demands. We currently acquire our furniture locally (specializing in Australiana) and world wide, mostly from England and France, and we only sell genuine Antiques definitely NO cheap Asian reproductions, so when you buy from us know with confidence you are getting a genuine article.

       We also specialize in sourcing out particular items of interest or must have pieces of furniture. With vast resources at our fingertips and with little guidance from your end, we are sure we can find you that special piece of furniture you have desperately been looking for without the high-end price tag.

      So please give us a call or send us an email with the details of what you are looking for with any helpful visual or informative aid and will get back to you with an obligation free quote.

Sincerely

Vlad's Antiques
