If you are not "vintage" you are either young or GONE!

Vintage just means year made, originally used exclusively for wine its now become generic. Vintage can be last year depending on what it is - appropriate use is 'vintage 1994 fabric' or 'vintage 2000 Mickey Mouse toy' with the year referenced.

I've noticed a whole lot of ebay sellers don't really have a clue what they're talking about.

I'd rather be 'vintage' than an antique!

I too refuse to grow old. I just celebrated my 19 anniversary of my 29th birthday. My grandfather is still alive and if you ask him his age he gives you the same sort of riddles. He has celebrated his 44 anniversary of his 50th birthday. K

Yes, it's a shock when you go to an antique store and there are the toys you played with when you were growing up. I never thought about me being "vintage".
