David helped me, and I couldn't have asked for a better guide through the process. I came in knowing what I liked aesthetically, but not fully understanding movements, GMT functions, long-term care, or how different brands compare. David broke everything down clearly without ever making me feel inexperienced. What I appreciated most was how passionate and knowledgeable he is about watches at every level. Whether discussing entry-level pieces or high-end collectors' watches, he spoke with the same depth and respect. It felt less like a sales interaction and more like a conversation with someone who truly loves horology. If you're thinking about starting your watch journey, or adding to your collection, this is the place to do it. And ask for David! Great experience from start to finish. Thank you David.

I made an appointment a few weeks in advance and Nicole was very helpful over the phone as well as emails. I went directly to the 3rd floor of the NM in Palo Alto where they're located. I was greeted right away and was told to leave my items so they can authenticate them and they would call me when they were ready with my quote. I walked around Stanford for a bit until they called. Nicole was ready with my quote and she explained everything so clearly. Their authentication process, etc. She showed me the quote for each item to make sure I was satisfied with them and gave me the different payment options that I had. She made sure we checked multiple times to make sure the information was correct so the payment wouldn't get delayed. When I got home, she has already emailed me a thank you as well as a copy of the contract and receipt. I will definitely be back when I have to sell more designer items. Nicole and everyone at the front desk were so helpful, patient, and kind. Thank you, Nicole, for an amazing experience!

I started by opening an account online. I took photos of my items and uploaded the photos in their website. Within a couple of days I get an estimated quote for a buyback or consignment. I liked the price so I brought my items directly to the Palo Alto location. I was greeted by Laura and the Manager Adrian. They were super nice and friendly. Adrian took my items to validate and review them. I sign the agreement and just like that my items were sold. A couple of days after drop off the payment for my items were in my bank. Super easy, convenient and people at the location are amazing. There's also an option to mail your items if you choose that route. I opted to bringing the items to their store. Overall, I rate the service, process and pricing 5/5

They staff is passionate and knowledgeable about the makers whose work they carry, and they carry such a wide selection of unique items by local artisans, as well as by global artisans. Most of the items I have purchased at Shady Lane fall under the category of jewelry, but I have also been very pleased with their selection of offbeat, small-maker clothing and outerwear. I appreciate that I can buy holiday gifts for a wide range of family members, from babies to adults, under one roof. A typical visit for me involves spending between ten and ninety minutes poring over their collection of Trollbeads (IYKYK). Then I move on to the artisan jewelry, the crystals, and the small woodworking (think jewelry boxes). And then, when possible, I blow kisses to the little dog behind the counter! I've also been to a few of their special events over the years, including a PassionArt Designs glass bead extravaganza.

My husband and I came across the moss wall art displays at Terrain back in Jan while browsing…read morearound various shops at Stanford Mall with a friend. I was intrigued by them and thought we could use something similar for the empty space above our fireplace at home. I wanted to hang some kind of art other than a painting there, anyway. I did some research online and found similar art work on Etsy. However, I wasn't comfortable ordering online for something the size we wanted without seeing their actual work in person. When our daughter was in town at the end of March, we went to Terrain again to get her opinion and to discuss with the staff there in more detail before deciding to order a single custom art piece. We talked to one of their designers, Reid, about the different options, and told her our budget, the size, the wood pieces and decorative elements we liked. Reid was incredible and so easy to work with. She sent us photos of her beautiful initial design of the moss art base and some decorative options after about a week. After exchanging a couple emails and talking on the phone with her, we stopped by to look at some of the elements in person as we're in the area that day, anyway. We loved how Reid refined the piece based on our feedback, and always kept us posted on any changes in price estimates. The end result looked stunning! When we picked up the moss art, another staff took great care in finding a large box and wrapping it so that we could bring the piece back home safely. We really appreciated it. I signed up for Terrain text message and got a 10% off code. They honored it at the store, as well. Every time we're in the store, we always found something interesting to look at, and the staff were super friendly. It's been more than 6 months, and the moss art still looks great. We love it!

It's a cute boutique offering California-made items such as pottery, clothes, skin care products, jewelry, art, and more. The store is nicely organized and their items are neatly displayed. A table with pottery near the entrance caught my eye right away. I also enjoyed checking out the flavored salts and oils for cooking, room diffusers, wall art, and jewelry. I was surprised to see they carry the wonderful Osea skin care products as I didn't know they were made in California. I ended up buying a ceramic spoon rest, room spray, and a tiny gold "diamond" ring. Their prices were reasonable. The store owner rang up my items and was very friendly and nice. I will definitely be back to shop here again.

Sal was incredible to work with he truly embodies what the brand stands for. He greeted every customer coming in and out with warmth and professionalism and made my first experience consigning items seamless and enjoyable. Consigning my pieces was smooth, informative, and stress-free. Sal took the time to explain everything clearly and made the entire process feel premium from start to finish. Thank you, Sal, for delivering such outstanding service. I also really appreciated the level of security. With security stationed at the front door managing entry and exit, I felt completely safe bringing in high-value items. If you're looking for a secure, professional place to sell or consign luxury pieces, I highly recommend this location. On top of that, they have an amazing selection unique items I haven't seen at other locations. This Palo Alto store is officially my home location, and I will definitely be back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for top tier customer service, security, and an elevated luxury experience. Thank you Sal and to the rest of the team! George Toscano and Happy New Years to everyone!

This review is specifically for Salvador and the three staff members working on May 8th…read more When I walked into the store, I was not acknowledged, despite the store being nearly empty. I then sat for several minutes waiting for assistance with a return, only to be spoken to in a dismissive manner once someone finally approached me. There were only two customers in the store at the time, so the lack of service was especially disappointing. Afterward, I followed up with my SA, who has always provided excellent service, and my concerns were escalated to management. Unfortunately, instead of taking accountability for how I was treated, Salvador responded with an email attempting to justify the behavior by implying the team was busy assisting others. That explanation simply did not reflect the reality of the situation. I responded respectfully, emphasizing that accountability matters and expressing hope that this could serve as a learning opportunity for the staff. I also clarified that my experience should not be attributed to high traffic when the store was clearly not busy. I never received a response. At this point, I question how thoroughly my complaint was actually reviewed. It feels easier for staff to claim they were occupied than to acknowledge poor customer service and address it honestly.
