I've been to this shop a number of times and the staff where fine, it does have a little bit of a…read morecar boot sale feel about it, but not necessarily the prices! They do sell 2nd hand (and sometimes new) air pistols/rifles but take prove of I.d if that's likely to be one of your purchases as this will be required.

This little shop is not what it sounds like, and yet it is. Okay, weird. From the name, and the…read morestrange display outside of old fashioned statues you would think this was a bric-a-brac shop or an antiques shop. Actually, they sell musical instruments, sports gear and other outdoor related gear. Weirdness galore. I think this is a pretty good shop for sports gear but I was kind of creeped out by it and didn't really comfortable enough to spend much time browsing around.

Geek is a welcome addition to the plethora of vintage shops which are littered across the city…read more Geek-chic is in, didn't you hear? Well, this little gem has only opened in the last two weeks, so the prices are certainly customer friendly! There are a range of floral 60s vintage dresses from £15-£20, polka-dotted skirts, checkered shirts, denim jackets and the rest...most prices are under £25 so all pocket friendly! If you're going in for accessories, you're likely to get an even better deal! The owner handmakes cufflinks (£3.50), headbands and rings all of which were cool and individual pieces. I saw some really cute heart shaped 1980s pierced earrings and they had a little trinket box full of belts, all at £2 each! I love rooting through the vintage prom dresses, there was one shiny emerald green number which was the perfect mermaid outfit! And when you've chosen those little retro buys which are "ready to wear" then you can oggle the mirrored till complete with space raiders. Too cool.

Geek is a little vintage clothing shop on Smithdown Road. I guess it's not as fully stocked, or…read moreeven as intriguing as some of the other vintage shops in Liverpool, but it's not half bad either. My friend and I found some really cute, brightly coloured embroidered 60's dresses that would be fun to wear to a costume party, or even to the beach. And there were some really cute formals as well. But I also saw a lot of dresses that looked like the kind that weren't even that popular back when they were made. Prices were reasonable--dresses generally started around £20.

Age UK is a charity shop which stocks a small variety of clothes, books and gifts…read more This is one of the smaller charity shops I have been to recently and they sell the usual suspects as you would generally expect. Inevitably with charity items, you'll bag yourself a bargain and Age UK is no exception. Plus, you'll often find something interesting and unique but on this occasion, I did not. Instead, there were more clothes than anything else. Much to my disappointment, the fact that the shop reeked of pungent fragrance, further put me off from staying any longer. This shop feels like it could do with some improvements as what they do offer is limited and the outside sign does suggest that they are desperate for more goods. Therefore I really hope things get better because the shop does attract a lot of the elderly and of course, it's all for a good cause.

There are actually three floors of furniture and you will everything you can imagine here in all styles--beds, bookcases, night stands, CD storage, display cabinets for collectables, you-name-it. Some of the pieces here are very nice and you will certainly be getting a great deal as compared to what you would pay in a department store or a catalogue.
