CONSIGNMENTS: General Purchasing Information
Please read these six simple rules so you know how the system works.

Any consignment purchase means you have read and agree with these policies.

 

1:   THE ITEMS:   The items listed in consignments sections 1, 2 and 3 are items I have been asked to sell (on consignment) by folks in the Civil War reenactment community -

* individual reenactors
* unit quartermasters
* sutlers clearing out excess "new old stock"
  and
* people who sew privately and need an outlet for their wares.

I have been providing this service since 1976 - first by newsletter and then on the web in 1996. All items are strictly REPRODUCTION. Some items are brand new and others used. As can be seen in the listings I try to be as detailed in my descriptions as I can and post photos when possible. I accept for consignment all Civil War related items EXCEPT for firearms (various legal reasons) and ladies civilian clothing and accessories (too size and fashion specific). I will consider vivandiere uniforms though because they're military specific.

2:  HOLDS:    If you see something you can't live without, call or e-mail me with the ITEM NAME and NUMBER and I will put it on HOLD for you. Such holds ("sale pending") are maintained for seven (7) business days to allow time for your payment to arrive. If I do not hear from the potential buyer at the end of the seven working day hold period, (the clock starts ticking when I get the call or e-mail to put the item on hold) the hold is removed and the item returned to active listing.

3:   PAYMENT:    Sorry, I'm not set up for credit cards, PayPal, etc., nor do I ship C.O.D. However, money orders or personal checks are welcome. PLEASE NOTE: 

PERSONAL CHECKS are held to clear (the clearing process could take up to TEN business (working) days) before the item can be shipped.

MONEY ORDERS allow for shipping within 24 hours after receipt. So if you're in a hurry for your item please use a money order. Money orders are available at any bank or post office and are also available at many convenience stores. PLEASE NOTE: The 24 hour shipping policy does NOT apply to items that require customer requested services such as alterations, modifications, hemming, or any type of work to be done to the item prior to shipping. Please give us a little time to get any requested process finished.

Please make payment (check or money order) out to "STONY BROOK COMPANY".

I regret that I cannot maintain credits accounts, lay-aways or partial payments on any item. The majority of sellers who utilize the consignments service do so with one sole purpose - to sell their items as promptly as possible hence first come, first served.

4:   SHIPPING:    Once payment is received (and cleared in the case of checks) I will ship the item within 24 hours. I principally use PRIORITY MAIL unless the buyer specifically requests UNITED PARCEL SERVICE. Occasionally I will select UPS to ship an item if the item is exceptionally large or heavy (such as tentage, bulk purchases, etc.). Very small or very lightweight items are usually sent via FIRST CLASS MAIL. I try to calculate the best shipping option/price for the item and those shipping fees are always posted right after the item price. Shipping rates shown on these pages are for the continental United States. However, I do ship to CANADA but ask my Canadian friends to please contact me for specific shipping rates. I always combine shipping on multiple purchases for the benefit of the buyer. Finally, if any special shipping arrangement is requested (either stateside or Canada) and it incurs additional shipping fees, these are worked out with the buying customer prior to concluding the transaction.

5:   RETURNS:    Please play it safe - “If it doesn’t fit, don’t force it!”. Any item certainly may be returned SO LONG AS it has NOT been worn, altered, retailored, or abused in ANY WAY! Stony Brook Company alone will make that final determination! Some gents have asked me if this last remark is really necessary. In answer to that all I can say is "Brother, you'd be surprised what I get back sometimes and people expect a refund on it!!" If any item comes back to me the same way I sent it out, a STONY BROOK COMPANY refund check will be promptly issued for the purchase price of the item itself; NOT including any shipping fees either initial or return. IF YOU HAVE TO RETURN AN ITEM it is a very good idea to get insurance on it for its full value! Delivery Confirmation is another great idea especially if you do not insure your return! REMEMBER, I am always glad to issue a refund for the item's purchase price - but I cannot issue a refund on something I do not receive! If an INSURED item that is being returned is lost or damaged you as the sender have to file the claim with the SHIPPER (Post Office, UPS, FexEx, DHL, etc); I cannot do it from this end.

6:   PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTION:    Sorry, I cannot ship anything that has not been paid for. If you purchase an item and it is unsatisfactory for any reason, it can be sent back as per our RETURNS policy above.

... and the most frequently asked question -

HOW DO I SELL SOMETHING ON CONSIGNMENT?   If you have an item that you would like to have listed in our consignments section just E-MAIL ME and I'll send you the details.

C.S. "ARTILLERY" FIELD GRADE OFFICER'S FROCK COAT; #KF2555.  This C.S. "artillery" officer's frock coat is BRAND NEW, NEVER WORN. It originally came with BUFF wool collar and cuffs but the owner covered them in red wool. HOWEVER, the red wool can be very easily removed to expose the original buff wool collar and cuffs again. In the photo "RED WOOL OVER BUFF FACINGS" I clipped a couple hand stitches and pulled away some of the red wool covering inside one of the cuffs to show this. I will retack it in place if the coat sells as artillery. Size is 42 in the chest with a 24 1/2" sleeve (edge of shoulder the bottom edge of cuff) and fits waist size up to 38" confortably. Made in a medium weight cadet gray wool. Double breasted front (7 per side) with two button cuffs. Body buttons are 7/8" "CSA" with the cuff buttons being small 1/2" "CSA"s. The tails of this frock feature scalloped facings and there are three 7/8" "CSA" buttons per side. The sleeves feature three rows of gold colored soutache braid for field grade (major to colonel) rank. The sleeve braid is NOT metallic bullion wire. I would guess that it is either cotton or a synthetic blend. In the relm of all things "sutler row", the braid doesn't look bad - looks like dull bullion at a distance. To be sure as I've see a LOT worse come outta sutler's row. This frock is fully lined in a blue check fabric in both the body and sleeves. No tail pockets but there is an internal left breast pocket in the lining. Coat body and lining are hemmed together across the bottom. NOTE: If the coat sells with it's artillery trim left on, we can change out the large (large only) CSA buttons for large Block "A" buttons for $15.00 total. We do not have any small block "A" buttons to do the cuffs.   ALSO:   the red wool trim can be removed and any other branch of service color wool substituted in it's place - just like the seller did with the red over the buff.

New Listing   U.S. ROUNDABOUT; #LD5254.   This dark blue wool roundabout is used but in EXCELLENT++ physical condition both inside and out. Some small stains on the sleeve liners but that's it. Size tag in the coat indicates size 48. However, we size this jacket as a size 52 and if you move the buttons over a little this coat would possibly even fit a size 54 chest as well. Standard waist length cut with standing collar, plain sleeves and a nine button front. Buttons are 7/8" brass U.S. eagles. Body is lined in plain black cotton and the sleeves in unbleached muslin. Maker unknown. Photos up soon.

C.S. GRAY WOOL UNLINED ROUNDABOUT. #JW2543. This basic pattern size 44/46 Short roundabout has been worn but remains in excellent++ physical condition. UNLINED. Seams are raw and not felled.

.......... $25.00 + $9.50 shipping   

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

C.S. ARTILLERY ROUNDABOUT. #MD6377 This jacket is USED but is in VERY GOOD condition. Size is 52. Made in a medium weight light gray wool with red standing collar and pointed cuffs. Lined on the inside with unbleached muslin in both body and sleeve. Nine 7/8" CSA buttons down the front. No buttons on the cuffs. There are some very minor service stains here and there on the lining but nothing major. There is also a small repair by the internal left breast pocket in the lining but again nothing major. The sleeve linings seem to be just touch longer than the sleeve themselves so a little of the lining shows below the cuff line when worn. However, a few quick tacks inside the sleeves should take care of that minor problem. Other than that, the jacket is in fine shape and ready to go back to the field. Some additional measurements are:

WAIST: 51" (that's off the coat so will fit individual with up to a 48" waistline comfortably)
COLLAR: 24" (including the front gap)
SLEEVE: 23" (arm length - outer edge of the shoulder to the cuff)
FRONT LENGTH: 21" (down the front, base of collar to the bottom of the jacket)

Maker unknown. Has the look of a Jarnagin or QM Shop item but I'm positive it's not a product from either of those shops. There's a tag on the inside but it's illegible.
.......... $65.00 + $9.50 shipping

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

C.S. BUTTERNUT ROUNDABOUT. #PM4800 .This basic pattern size 48 Short roundabout has been worn only a couple times so it is in EXCELLENT physical condition inside and out. The only damage we can find to the coat is a tiny pinhole near the center back and some light areas of fade on the body. These areas of fade are light enough that we didn't even notice it upon our first inspection of the coat. Only after we started taking the photos did we see it. However, it isn't anything major and certainly does not detract from the jacket. This jacket is made in a medium weight camel colored wool. It is entirely machine sewn including buttonholes and features a standing collar (without hook & eye), plain tube style sleeves, a six button front, internal left breast pocket plus unbleached muslin body and sleeve linings. Save for some very very light sweat stains right at the bottom edge of the sleeve linings at the cuffs, this jacket shows no signs of wear whatsoever. Four piece body and one piece sleeves. Untrimmed and without epaulettes or belt loops. There are five 7/8" flat brass North Carolina "sun burst" buttons on the front and one 7/8 inch "CSA" replacement at the bottom.

TROUSERS

 

PLEASE NOTE: The waist measurements on ANY trousers listed on this page are "WAIST AT NAVEL LEVEL" (that high up). This is not necessarily the same waist size found on your blue jean size tags. ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK YOUR WAIST SIZE AT NAVEL LEVEL to insure the trousers you order fit satisfactorily. Three minutes taken to check this measurement may save you all the hassle of reboxing the trousers, the hike to the post office or UPS to ship them back, paying shipping and insurance charges, etc. as well as time lost if you needed the trousers in a hurry.

A lot of guys ask "Why are a lot of your trousers on consignment?" The answer is simple and regrettable - a lot of guys who order new trousers do not follow the simple instructions on this website for taking ACTUAL "off-the-body" measurements; particularly the waist measurement. They guess at it or use the size tag info off jeans. While the size tag info can work for length, when it comes to waist sizing on Victorian era style trousers, 75% of the time (or better) the waist size given on jeans size tags will NOT work. Jeans are cut much differently than Victorian era (CW) trousers. So because instruction were not followed, trousers come back and wind up on consignment. The most regrettable part of this for all parties involved is that the gentleman has to reorder (repurchase) a new pair of trousers plus starting the production waiting process all over again - all the while waiting for his old pair to sell so he can recoup his original purchase funds. All of this could have been avoided just for the sake of taking a couple minutes to get an actual off-the-body waist at navel level measurement with a tape measure.

So it is with buying trousers listed on consignment - if anything at least PLEASE take an actual measurement of your waist size AT NAVEL LEVEL using a vinyl tape measure. We want to make sure you're happy with the fit of your purchase but 100% of insuring the size rests in the hands of the buyer. Now if this measurement stuff gets confusing, no sweat ... call (315-343-1557) or e-mail me and we can sort it all out in short order. :-)

All WAIST measurements on the trousers listed below (or found elsewhere on this site) are all with the rear waistband split TIED CLOSED. :-)

is an in-house Stony Brook Company term for our top-of-the-line trousers in terms of historical accuracy (patterning, assembly, hand sewn details, etc).

TROUSERS; U.S. SKY BLUE FOOT PATTERN. #JW3738. These are from sutler's row but have been upgraded a little.

One mothed area about the size of a dime and four more ranging from the size of a pin head to an eraser head. No holes though; just the fabric nap chewed (see photos).

C.S. (or civvy) DARK GRAY TROUSERS; #NC8871: These trousers have seen some field use but are in very good condition all around. No rips, tears, repairs, smoke smells, stains, etc. Made in Woolrich DARK gray wool and measure 46" x 31 1/2".

These trousers are cut high waisted with a sloping back and tapered waistband. There is a patch on one of the knees BUT, this was applied just for appearences sake. The seller explains that the unit had to put in a late war appearance at an event so the boys tacked on patches on some of the trousers as part of an overall appearance "downgrade". So this patch is strictly decorative with no damage behind it and can be easily removed. There is also some thread remnants down the outerseams where side seam stripes used to be. No stains or "fade" left over from the striping - just remnants of thread where the striping was sewn on. Here again, removeable with a little time spent to pick out these thread remnants. Photos up soon.

UNIFORM SETS

 

UNIFORM SET: C.S. JEAN WOOL JACKET & TROUSERS. #PM3865   This lightweight dark gray jean wool uniform set (privately made by the owner) consists of a roundabout and a pair of trousers. Size is: JACKET - 48/50. TROUSERS - 42" waist x 28" length. The trousers have some very light use but the jacket is brand new, never worn. Here's a breakdown per item:

JACKET: Made in a lightweight dark gray jean wool (like a "salt & pepper" color or effect - see photos). This jacket is machine-sewn on the main seams but features hand sewn details. There is hand sewing in the arm holes (sleeve linings to body lining), hand felling along the base of the collar to body lining, hand top stitching around the jacket edges, hand top stitching around the collar and hand sewn buttonholes. Jacket also features a short standing collar without hook & eye, six 3/4" block "I" button front and a horizontal cut internal left breast pocket. Jacket is made with a 4 panel body and 2 piece sleeves. No buttons on the cuffs. Here is some additional jacket sizing information.

COLLAR:   23"
FRONT LENGTH:   21 1/2"
BACK LENGTH:   23 1/2"
SLEEVE LENGTH:   26" (from the shoulder to the cuff)
WAIST:   Will fit up to 46" comfortably (with a little room to spare)

TROUSERS: Made in a lightweight dark gray jean wool (like a "salt & pepper" color or effect - see photos). Size is 42" waist x 28" inseam. Just to mention it there isn't enough extra fabric rolled up in the cuffs to allow for any lengthening of the inseam. These trousers are used but in overall GREAT SHAPE. The only problem I can find on these trousers is a small hole developing by the left pocket (see photo in "DETAILS" set). Unbleached muslin used for pockets and all facings. These trousers are unlined and are principally machine-sewn. However, they do feature hand sewn button holes plus hand topstitching on the top entry "mule ear" pattern pockets. No watch pocket. Rolled and hand-hemmed cuffs. Buttons are 1/2" natural bone and there are seven on the waistband and four in the fly. These trousers also feature two rear adjustment belts with buckle.

Here are some images of this set per item:
