Very large store. Big selection from rings, to radios to furniture. Prices really very to good value to "has this actually been appraised correctly"? Definitely worth stopping to find stuff and make some offers.

While they have some fun items, they've always been in questionable shape, even as antiques. The worst bit is that they use their giant marquee to blast their political stances onto Main Street. It's a major put-off for a lot of people who go antiquing as an escape from politics. Pretty well done with this place.

Terrible customer service and I will be taking my business elsewhere. I was told twice by them to come in and they would appraise some items I had and both times they would not give me the time of day and refused to look my items.Very beautiful shop but the people who run it are rude and inconsiderate of peoples time. Do not tell people to stop by with items if you’re not interested in even looking at them🤷♀️
