About Us

Welcome to The Vintastic Company
Curated vintage finds from the heart of Pennsylvania — loved by collectors across the country.
Our Story
We are The Vintastic Company (VintasticCo.) — a family-run vintage business born out of a lifelong love of hunting for hidden treasures. We are Laura and Joel, and we have been picking and collecting for many years. In 2016 we turned our passion into a full-fledged business. What started as a weekend flea market stand has grown into a trusted vintage destination with over 12,000 sales and more than 3,000 five-star reviews from happy collectors just like you.
We operate near Hershey, Pennsylvania, a region that gives us extraordinary access to some of the richest vintage hunting grounds in the country — Lancaster County, Amish and Mennonite communities, Gettysburg, rural Americana, estate sales, and local auctions. We also maintain two co-op antique stands in the area: The Olde Factory and Schoolhouse Antiques.
Trusted by Vintage Buyers
Over the past decade, we've built a trusted reputation for quality customer service. We offer unique vintage items at fair prices, we transparently disclose item conditions, pack items securely, and ship promptly. This includes:
- Over 12,000+ sales completed since 2016
- 3,000+ five-star reviews from verified buyers
- Established presence on Etsy, Chairish, and our own Shopify storefront
- A loyal community of repeat customers who return again and again
- Sales of vintage decor to TV productions, movie sets, and Hollywood prop houses
Connecting young and old buyers to the past has been rewarding to us. We take pride in seeing a sale as a conversation and not just a transaction.

How We Curate Our Collection
Not everything old is worth keeping — and that's exactly why curation matters. Every item in our shop has been personally selected by Laura based on quality, character, and collectibility. Here's how we find what we sell:
- Estate Sales & Auctions — We attend local and regional sales to find pieces with genuine provenance and history.
- Flea Markets & Yard Sales — We hit the circuit regularly, including the Brooklyn Flea and regional Pennsylvania markets.
- Private Collections — Sometimes the best finds come from families ready to pass their treasures on to new homes.
- Online Auctions — after COVID, many auctions moved online. We mine these sales for unique items to offer to you.
Authenticity & Condition
We believe in honest, transparent descriptions. Every listing includes:
- Accurate condition notes, including any flaws, chips, crazing, or wear consistent with age
- Measurements and photos from multiple angles
- Our best assessment of era, maker, and origin based on our experience and research
- Vintage and antique items are sold as found — we do not restore or artificially age pieces
- Authentic — nothing in our curated collection is made in China or other countries that would date items as "too new"
If you ever have a question about a specific item, just reach out, we're happy to provide additional photos or details before you buy.
Meet Our Family
Laura works part-time as an Executive Admin but is full-time Vintastic employee at heart. She dreams of one day retiring to a vintage stand near the beach. Joel is a technology professor and Vintastic gives him the opportunity to do e-commerce not just teach it. Evan is our youngest child and is now a manager at a botanical garden and arboretum.
Vintastic really took off after our three children reached adulthood. Our kids now live in Pennsylvania, Brooklyn, and Las Vegas — but our family's travel adventures have taken us around the globe to places like New Zealand, Europe, and Central America.
