They had my cuckoo clock since February 2025. I was told by Carol that it would take 6 months. I've…read morewaited patiently and have called regularly to get a status update. When I finally got Carol on the phone she said that Roy took the clock HOME to work on it. It is now October 2025. I finally talked to Carol and told her I will drive to their HOME to pick up my property. UPDATE: I went to their home and retrieved my clock. There were 8-10 other clocks in random bags/boxes that have not been touched. I caution anyone looking for clock repair to read the reviews before going to this vendor.

I have made numerous attempts to find it, offering to come up and id it, and have gotten no response from Roy and nothing but excuses from Carol. DO NOT TRUST THEM with your family heirlooms. The grandfather clock had to be repaired by my brother. sadly, Roy doesn't have the knowledge or skills do do it correctly, and the other cuckoo clock we had him "repair", has never kept time. There is a reputable clock repair shop in San Mateo on El Camino at 25th Ave that knows what he is doing, and we will go there from now on. In terms of our lost clock, I even asked if we could pick one from the shop to replace it, again, no response. I will be reporting this business to the State of CA, and will probably end up suing them. Save yourself the aggravation and don't do business with them.

Great place to donate clothing and shoes! I dropped off four bags at Turnstyle this morning. The…read morelady at the door greeted me warmly and even said my donations were helping to keep the store alive :) They have a big market for running shoes in good condition, so definitely bring those here if you have them. I'd previously considered donating to Goodwill and St. Vincent de Paul, but I'm very glad I decided to go to Turnstyle instead. I parked at the Caltrain lot ($1/hour on weekdays), and there's some street parking in front of the store as well. I'll definitely be back!

He also carries small items such as glass wares, pottery, and silver designer jewelry. We randomly came upon this store, walked up to the door and were bummed to see that it was closed, opening in 30 minutes. We had turned to walk back to the car when the owner came out to greet us and open his doors early. It was an excellent experience.

Walking into Art Villain Gallery & Consignment feels like tumbling down a creative rabbit hole --…read morethe kind lined with glittering antiques, mind-bending sculptures, and walls that practically hum with imagination! My family and I have dropped by several times, and every visit feels like a brand-new adventure through art history and modern expression all rolled into one. The space itself is incredible, inside an old bank building (yes, there's serious "Cool Factor" energy here). Everywhere you look, there's something unexpected, collage art that catches you off guard, mixed media pieces that spark conversation, and paintings that could easily live in a museum. The vibe is warm and personal, too. On each visit, the associates and the artist-owner were there to chat, answer questions, and share the stories behind the works -- which makes browsing feel more like a private studio tour than a shopping trip. And if that's not enough, on weekends, the outside gallery front transforms into a quaint outdoor music venue featuring live Jazz and Classic Rock. It really feels like you are a guest in a friend's home studio. Bottom line: If you love art, music, and a dash of eccentric charm, this San Carlos gem is a must-see. Even if you have to drive a little -- trust me, it's worth every mile.

I found some great items, including a military flight jacket for just $12! Also a Burton snowboard jacket for $10. Can't beat that! Most items were around $5-$10, which is reasonable. Turns out most of the store was 50% off today, so just an added bonus. I'll be back!

My sweetie took me here a while back. The store owner was friendly and attentive. However, I saw…read moreso much stuff in this little tiny store. It was clutters of stuff and we were the only customers there at the time. To be honest, some of the stuff there probably should be just thrown away like worn out shoes and books in a shed that probably has mildew on them. Each time I did find something to buy, the owner kept on checking on her phone for a similar item's price. Apparently, most prices here are not set and the owner decides once the customer asks. I saw some hats I liked in a box marked $2 each, she told me that only some of the hats were that price. I found a kid's sweater that was from the 1990s and showed wear, she wanted $10 for it because it was apparently designer. Seriously?!? Also my sweetie wanted to buy a doll for his mother for mother's day and again the store owner had to compare pricing for it online. She gave him a price but would not budge on the price, my sweetie and I debated about it...was it worth it? Could we find another collectible doll at a different thrift store for less? Well my sweetie ended up buying it. His mom loved it. But we both think there are better deals elsewhere. I also have a feeling that the owner here sizes people up to see by how they dress and act to determine the price she would sell the item to them. This small thrift store is hidden in the back behind other businesses. I get the impression that most items for sale here have been in the store for years. There is an awesome collection of vintage phones but who wants an old landline phone? There are not only worn out shoes, but clothing that has seen better days. The aisles are cluttered, narrow and cramped. It is difficult to walk through them. Also as there is no fitting rooms, there should have been at least a long mirror to see yourself while trying on clothing, but there was none. When you buy used clothing, you are taking a huge chance as clothing can have shrunk, have unraveled stitching, stains, alterations, cigarette or sweat smell, have holes and other issues- trying on clothing is the best way to examine clothing before purchase. There is no way to do that here. I would not even know where i could simply stand with a few chosen articles of clothing to try on over my own clothing here. As I said, my sweetie and I were the only customers in the store at the time. I get the impression as well that it does not get much business at least lately. And yet, her prices are generally high. I do not even know how a store like this one can stay in business!
