UPDATED 6/10/25
PLEASE READ BELOW
Folks, thank you so much for your support, I greatly appreciate it! I have so many of you let me know that you look at my site on a daily basis. I wanted to let you know that I am going to visit my family in Texas, and also to look at a couple of collections. This will likely be my last update to the page until June 23. Thanks again for your support and understanding. God bless!
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my site. I am Tom Hays, and I am the fourth generation to grow up on our family farm, a short distance from the Stones River Battlefield. I've always had an interest in the civil war, and have been selling relics for over forty years. Many of you also know my father, Bill Hays who also dealt in relics for many years. I have had this relic site since February of 1998 and many things have changed in that time, but the following never will:
First and foremost, I'll never knowingly sell a fake relic.
I'll not make up a location where a relic was found.
I'll not make up a story to embellish a relic.
I'll not alter a relic to represent it as something it's not.
I'll tell you if the relic has been repaired.
I'll stand behind every relic that I sell.
In short, I'll treat you exactly the way I want to be treated when I buy. I appreciate your business, and I appreciate you! Whenever you are in the East Tennessee area, I'd love for you to stop by. Please call first, as I am a one man operation and I'm often away from the shop. Please remember our service men & women in your prayers. God Bless America!
Sincerely,
Tom Hays
