I was thrilled that someone mentioned Frantic Stamper on the other thread. It has lots of odds and ends from old collections and I'm definitely buying a lot to fill in holes or replace well-loved papers. It was so fun to look at all of the old stuff. And she has a huge selection of stencils and I love stencils.
Now that Tuesday Morning is not doing scrap stuff anymore I don't have any place else to buy old supplies. I love antiquing and thrifting and finding hidden gems.
Does anyone know of any other stores with old merchandise?

You can sometimes find some older stuff on Cranberry Cat, I have had good service from them. www.cranberrycat.com/ |

Bargainpack has a ton of old stuff. The website is definitely an old one but the owner is fairly responsive to questions. I have not ordered from them yet so I can't say anything about their shipping.

All About MemoriesIt started as a Facebook group and moved over to an actual web page. While I haven't purchased from them, several other crafters have (and shared their hauls on YT, etc.).

I’ve bought several times from frantic stamper and always ships fast although it’s very pricy shipping. I will warn you to not buy anything old that might show age. I bought some washi that I did not know was old and it came very faded and stained. I probably should have returned it but I realize it’s probably an assumed risk for older things. Otherwise I’ve had a great experience with them. |

Cheap Scrapbook Stuff has some older collections, not like October Afternoon/Cosmo Cricket old, but when I was looking for pieces of Pink Paislee's Again and Again collection, they were the only place I could find several sheets. So I'd say they're good for collections that are a few years old, but not much longer than that. Piece Love Craft is also good for finding semi-older lines (Shimelle, Dear Lizzy, etc), not super old. I haven't ordered from them yet but heard about them from other crafters on YouTube, so I can't personally speak to their service. I was once searching for an older American Crafts line (can't remember which one now) and came across Artist Supply Source which seems to carry a BUNCH of older American Crafts items. It kind of seems like maybe they bought up a bunch of stuff from AC's warehouse or something. Anyway, I haven't ordered from them and had never heard of them before, so I'm not sure how legit they are, but thought I'd mention in case it helps anyone. Great thread artbabe! I'm excited to check out the stores that other Peas recommend. As I've searched for some older lines, I've realized that many older shops don't use search engine optimization, so their results may not show up in the first few pages of results or in the "shopping" tab, so this will be a great resource.

Cozy Crop House in Lititz, PA has very old stuff, at least last time I was there.

My Tuesday Morning replacement is scrapbooking for less (.com), it's not old old stuff, but nothing brand new either. Lots of EP, Carta Bella, Simple Stories, and occasionally other popular brands. The shipping is a flat rate, so not a place to order one sheet of paper from. The items ship from Montana, and Valerie usually puts a notice up that shipping will be slower, or if she's going on vacation. My other source for all kinds of supplies, is create for less (.com). I don't usually look here for patterned paper here because a lot of it comes in packs of 25 of the same design but they do sell some things individually. They also sell albums, page protectors, cardstock, adhesive, organization stuff, paint... as well as things for knitting/crochet, sewing, diamond dots... The only catch is you have to spend $100 to get free shipping... I somehow always manage  |

We have a Throwback Thursday section that has all kinds of goodies we found during our recent remodel...My Mind's Eye, Scenic Route, SEI, Pink Paislee, and more. If I thought I could use the My Mind's Eye stuff we have in this lifetime, I would have kept it all for myself! My hands-down favorite. scrapbookgeneration.com/all-categories/throwback-thursday/ |

It's one that you need to keep an eye on more frequently because recently discontinued popular lines can go fast. I've seen that with Shimelle and Vicki Boutin products. I haven't shopped at create for less in a long time! I did enjoy checking out their selection, but the shipping could be high. |

Forgot to add, I've ordered from cheapscrapbookstuff.com once. All of the 12x12 papers were bent. It didn't bother me, since I rarely scrap that size.

The Piece Love Craft owner has been super. She purchased the on-line store Tupelo, which was initially a good shop but went downhill. I was looking for a unusual texture paste that was retired and found it in a kit that was 40% off plus she applied a new customer discount after the fact. Via email she told me about a similar product and she included a free jar of the paste I was looking for in a different color. She also said if the paste was dried out (since it was old) to let her know. Shipping was fast. She recently started making videos - maybe mixed media? - and will send email updates about the type of paper crafting you prefer after you check your interests. |

Oooh, this is a dangerous thread for me, I am always looking to add to my dwindling stash of older and favorite lines.  I was also going to mention Starlit Studio, I was able to purchase a lot of first quality October Afternoon paper there during lock down. |
