Welcome to our Orbit! We're Moon City Modern Antique and Vintage LLC in Wapakoneta Ohio. Our store is worth a trip if you have time for sure, however, if you can't find the time, then sit back and listen in to our PodCast: Dead People's Stuff! It's a once weekly podcast highlighting anything and everything about antiques, vintage, mid century and stories from the show circuit, store and just about anywhere we've been. We'll delve into meeting our amazing dealers, getting their background and why they are in the business. Special pieces we've had, have or want. The work that goes into having a booth, a shop or doing shows. All with a kicked back vibe that is sure to get you wanting to become part of our Orbit!
This is where the podcast becomes much more fun for me, and for you hopefully.. We delve into what makes our dealers and others in the antique industry tick. What they like, what they don't like, their ethics and everything in between too! Come along for the ride, it's bound to be fun!
This is part 2 of the history of the antique business as we know it.

Every week we have people come in to the store trying to sell things to us.

This episode focuses on the time a guy came in to sell me basically black market porn :)
