frequently asked Questions

What is the condition of your vintage and antique products?

It is not uncommon for us to be told that our products appear new in the store, which always makes us smile :) Please know that we basically take great care in the selection of our vintage and antique items. Also, all our products are cleaned, repaired or restored as needed and all second-hand textiles (blankets and clothing) are first machine cleaned and steamed.

Following requests from our customers, we no longer immediately polish our brass, copper and bronze objects in order to preserve their patina. We will be happy to share with you our tips and tricks for restoring your objects to their original shine if you wish.

Please note, however, that some old products may show signs of age. These will be visible in our photos and indicated in the product sheet. Our prices vary depending on the condition, rarity and age of the item. By purchasing a vintage piece from Demain Bienvenue, you understand that it has already been loved and used. Each scratch, each patina tells a story, adding unique depth and character to the object. These imperfections become testimonies of the past, giving each piece an undeniable charm that transcends simple design. By incorporating these treasures into your decor, you're not just adding an aesthetic element; you also invite a part of history and authenticity into your daily life.

I can't find an item on the site that I saw on Instagram/Facebook 

We remove out-of-stock items from the site every week to ease your searches on the site. Since the site opened, more than 9,000 unique objects have been displayed. In any case, it is always possible to contact us if you need help with your research! We also have a chat system available on the site.

Are you going to have a sold out item again?

As most of our items are vintage, we cannot guarantee that we will find an identical or even similar item. You should know that many of our products are unique, which gives them so much charm. Some items find a home just minutes after being posted online. It is therefore suggested not to wait too long before getting the object of your dreams!

Are all the items in the store found on your site?

Unfortunately, no. There are many more items available in store than on our site. Visiting the store is strongly recommended to see the extent of our inventory. We have, among other things, a large selection of furniture, picture frames and lamps that we do not display on the site as they are bulky items that do not qualify for delivery. New products are also available in stores a few days to a few weeks before they go online.

Do you buy vintage and antique items from individuals?

Certainly. However, we are extremely selective. You can check the procedure by clicking here.

Do you offer furniture delivery?

Unfortunately, shipping costs are exorbitant for large items. This is why we have decided not to offer delivery of furniture. For people from outside, however, we can keep the furniture for a few weeks to allow you to come and collect it at your convenience following full payment. For people around Quebec City, delivery may be possible with a small additional charge. In all cases, an agreement must be made in advance with us at info@demainpeutetre.ca. Please note that the furniture is final sale. 

Are there any product promotions?

At Demain Ouverte, promotions are occasional and rarely scheduled. We are therefore unlikely to participate in Black Friday, after-Christmas sales or other similar events. For what ? Because we have chosen to offer you accessible and affordable prices at all times :)

We encourage you to subscribe to our newsletter or follow us on social networks to be informed of promotions, because these are often the only platforms where they are announced! :) Additionally, we have a SALE section on our site, where you can discover selected items at discounts of up to 75%. Don’t hesitate to take a look to find treasures at low prices!

I am a craftsman and I would like my products to be distributed in your store

It is always a pleasure for us to discover the work of local artisans. However, our space is limited and we must carefully select the products that we offer to our customers. If you would like to present the fruit of your work to us, please send us all the details by email to info@demainpeutetre.ca. Please note that we do not take any items on consignment. 

Where do you find your vintage and antique items?

By far the question we get asked most often. With more than 9,000 products that have appeared on our shelves, we understand that this can pique curiosity :) The answer is simple... Everywhere. Resellers, collectors, antique dealers, individuals, garage sales, garage sales, estate and moving sales, auctions, resource centers, etc. We travel several thousand kilometers annually to find the most beautiful vintage objects and furniture and offer them to you in one place. You have to understand that searching for objects requires a lot of time, patience, and above all, luck. We are very proud to offer you a range of vintage and antique objects carefully selected with love and passion in order to save you hours of research and discouragement that can arise from quests.
