    ABOUT WINE COUNTY SELLERS
    WCS was born near the wine country of New York’s Finger Lakes region. After relocating to Atlanta, Ga., for a few years, we are very proud and happy to be back home in NY!  We continue to offer the same wonderful, eclectic items and terrific service that WCS is known for!
    The vast majority of our items come from clients who are downsizing or cleaning out an estate.  From antiques to collectibles to the strange and wonderful, we never know what’s coming – which makes it so much more fun!  We often find things of value that clients never new existed, or never knew the value of, that otherwise may have been discarded.  They love these treasure hunts just as much as we do.
    And we hope you enjoy perusing our wide range of items as well.  Again…you never know what will show up.
