Custom Furniture Search
Looking for a specific piece of furniture? Let me be your personal shopper! My Custom Furniture Search service helps you find secondhand and vintage furniture (including those highly sought-after mid-century pieces) based on your size requirements, personal style, and budget.
I do the searching so you don’t have to. & When I find a piece that fits what you’re looking for, you’ll get first dibs!
What We Offer
I’m always on the hunt for quality vintage furniture! I search locally and throughout California (with an established network of sellers and sources) & often find pieces you likely wouldn't come across on your own.
-
We search for specific secondhand furniture pieces based on your size, style, and budget. This service is perfect for customers who have a clear vision but do not have the time or resources to search for the right piece themselves.
-
To begin, please send the ideal and maximum dimensions, style details, desired features, inspiration photos if available, and your ideal and maximum budget for each item requested. Quick responses are important, since good pieces often need to be secured quickly.
-
A $10 fee is required per item requested. This is the only search fee and confirms that you are serious and ready to purchase if the right piece is found. Once a piece is located and approved by you, full payment is due immediately through Venmo, Zelle, PayPal, or CashApp.
-
All custom search items can be picked up locally, delivered locally, or shipped anywhere in the U.S. for customers beyond 100 miles from Grover Beach.

FAQs
I search for secondhand furniture based on your request. This may include vintage, modern, or other pre-owned pieces depending on your style, needs, and budget.
What types of furniture can you search for?
1
Please send the ideal and maximum dimensions, style details, desired features, inspiration photos if available, and your ideal and maximum budget for each item requested. The more specifics you have, the better!
What do I need to send to start a search?
2
A $10 fee is required per item requested. This is the only search fee and helps confirm that you are serious and ready to purchase if the right piece is found.
How much does this service cost?
3
Why is there a $10 fee per request?
4
The $10 fee helps confirm that you are serious about your request and ready to move forward if the right piece is found. While I am always sourcing, custom searches require additional time, effort, communication, and more specific searching based on your individual needs.
I’m a little hesitant to pay the fee. Can you just casually let me know if you find something?
5
Custom search requests require significantly more focused time, effort, and communication than general day-to-day sourcing. The fee ensures that your request is serious, that your communication stays active, and that the search is worth the added time involved.
Can I use cash only for this service?
6
Unfortunately, no. Custom furniture search requests require quick payment when the right piece is found, so this service is only available to customers who can pay electronically through Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle.
How quickly do I need to respond?
7
Quick responses are important! When a great piece becomes available, a fast decision is often needed in order to secure it. You also need to be ready to pay immediately!
Where do you search for furniture?
8
I search in many places locally and throughout California, including Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, thrift stores, antique stores, estate sales, garage sales, yard sales, and other private sources.
Do you show me what you paid for the item?
9
No. I don’t disclose my sourcing cost or involve customers in negotiations. You are simply given the final offered price and can decide whether or not you’d like to move forward with purchasing!
What if I don’t know exactly what I want yet?
10
That’s okay! I can still help narrow things down. At minimum, you will need to know your size requirements and budget. Inspiration photos, style references, and other details are also very helpful. The more direction you can provide, the better I can help find the right piece for your space.
