The Collection on Main is incredible! A great team of dedicated vendors with a nice variety of vintage and antiques to choose from. The owner has definitely had her challenges and has overcome every obstacle in keeping the best little shop going in this little town of Independence Oregon! A must see when visiting!
Thank you so much for your kind words Valerie! We love our great vendors, customers and this little town. 💕

We love The Collection! It is a regular weekly stop for us since we are lucky enough to live locally. Their inventory is also fresh and arranged so attractively. There are always new things for us to see, even though we are there often! They have a range of items, from lovely major furniture pieces to quirky curios to vintage and contemporary clothing. Something for everyone — and we almost always find something to bring home with us. Prices are fair and affordable. The staff are warm, friendly and helpful. The Collection is one of our favorite places to just hang out, visit, peruse the interesting and beautiful things, and find just the right item for our home or as a gift.
Thank you Linda! We sure do enjoy your visits to the shop. You’re not just customers to us but lovely new friends. You really ring our bell!😉

If you're looking for a delightful stroll through an adorable vintage shop, look no further. I easily found a handful of treasures here, plus several large pieces of furniture to drool over and covet. The lady who helped us was so friendly and kind. I really enjoyed this store and while there learned that their sister store is called The Hidden Collection and is only a few blocks away. Add this place to your antiquing loop!
Thank you Brandy! We sure do appreciate the shout out and look forward to seeing you again.

This is my place! You’ll know what I mean (and feel the same way) when you just walk by on the sidewalk. But do step inside, magic will envelop you. Their new location is a perfect fit. Incredible collection, design ideas, fair prices, it will take your breath away. Plan at least an hour to be here, longer if you want to look at their unique clothing collection in the loft. The antique door knob and original floors are a bonus!
Thank you so much for your kind words. It is our pleasure to invite our customers into our “happy place” and join our collection of friends. Of all our “collections”, our friends are our favorite.

I bought a cute dresser from the Shop and absolutely love it. They even delivered it to my house for a small price, which I really appreciated. They are also very friendly. I definitely recommend this shop.
Thank you so much Kristi! We do really enjoy making our customers happy.
