Fair enough if you've been fool enough to win something at auction here but unfortunately the local Mailboxes Etc at Brighton is completely unprofessional, and as you desperately try and find somewhere that will pick up your item when you live in Dundee and can't collect personally, the emails get increasingly and quickly aggressive. Good luck to anyone who suffers from anxiety and has to deal with this auction house. I won't make the mistake of buying from here again. Horrendous experience.

Snoopers Paradise is a must-visit for anyone coming to Brighton. Cluttered and bizarre, the shop…read morehas absolutely no apparent order, with bits and bobs scattered and hidden throughout stretching rooms full to the brim of treasures and, well, crap! There's literally something here for everyone - old furniture, jewellery, boxes of tatty old photographs, vintage clothing. Whatever it is you're looking for, Snooper's Paradise is likely to have it in some form or another. It's also likely to stock everything you're not looking for, which is why I especially love taking a stroll around here. First of all, let me state clearly - if you are not a browser, don't even come inside here. You will hate it. If you get stressed out by sales or TK Maxx, then back away slowly from Snooper's Paradise. It is, sadly, not for you. However if, like me, you love a good hoke around - you'll love this place! Many an afternoon can be spent wandering, trying on ridiculous hats, flicking through old books, pining after beautiful bits of furniture that you can't afford and that wouldn't fit in your flat anyway. It's that sort of place - you can get lost in there for hours, caught up in the wonder of it all! In terms of prices, this is obviously a very mixed bag. Some things are expensive, some things are a penny. Such is the way with big shops like this! That being said, there's always a bargain to be found in here somewhere! The staff are helpful and friendly! It always amazes me how they can find and price things in there without getting utterly frazzled by the sheer volume and randomness of the stock. Get down there and have a good rummage - you'll either love it or you'll hate it!

You walk in empty handed and somehow end up leaving half an hour later with a tin robot, a 1960s chair, an antique mirror or a pair of models legs! Situated halfway down Brighton's fantastic Kensington Gardens, its a sprawling, antique market that has dozens of different stalls offering everything from the brilliant to the bizarre. There are some cool furniture and homeware stalls, handy book and record stalls and a few inspired clothes stall selling great vintage clothes. There's also a lot of very odd bric a brac that I imagine will still be there in 2020!

Won't bother with them again, as there are plenty of friendly and professional auction houses. When I saw one of the partners reply to an unhappy review somewhere else, I was appalled. If the top person is so nasty to a customer, I can understand how I've been treated like rubbish. I would avoid.

The stock is rubbish and the whole place smells overwhelmingly of cheap chemicals and cat food. Where as Poundland actually sell brand names at cheaper and reduced prices, this store sells pure trash. The giftware section with candles, stationary and storage boxes verges on criminal and the cleaning equipment looks and smells toxic.
