Not everybody is going to be super pleasant and chatty, I think that's fine tbh. I haven't ever had anyone be rude to me here. It's a huge space and they get in tons of treasures, it's true thrift store with lots of goodies stacked to sift through. It goes to a good cause and a lot of people working hard for the kittens and cats so I always feel good donating and purchasing from here. In order to keep things running they rely on these purchases, so the prices probably have a lot to do with that. I'll always come back. It's way bigger than you'd realize looking from the outside.

The store is full of fabulously ridiculous finds, the kind of items that make you want to keep looking. We ended up buying two pairs of salt and pepper shakers along with a few other things. The owner was friendly, and his sweet dog Gracie, a border collie and pug mix, was hanging out in the store with him. The whole place had a super relaxed vibe, which made it an especially enjoyable spot to browse.

Yesterday I made sure to call to confirm they were open & when they were closing. They were going to close an hour early (at 2pm) so we sped over to the east bay as fast as we could so I could hunt around a new antique store. We arrived at 1:30 only to find out that they had closed the store!! Are you freaking kidding me?! I guess these people really don't want my money. I don't even want to try again because I already know even if I do everything right I will pull into the parking lot to see that dang closed sign again! I'm very annoyed!

I asked how they accumulated so many antiques since this wasn't their area of expertise. I was told by purchasing estate sales and inventory of closing Antique stores. The young lady worked for her father who started the business, as I understood, was enthusiastic, very kind and helpful though not knowledgeable when I asked her questions. Many/most items were not priced. I purchased a few tiny treasures and made a mental note of other items I was interested in, excited to return. Early stages of covid shutdowns/quarantine. I drove by and thought I'd stop in to browse. Yes it was open and the owner (father I believe) was there. I wore my mask - he did not. He stood very close to me following me from room to room. I had to keep backing away since he did not seem to be concerned about not wearing a mask. I thought it was required if you were going to keep your doors open for business, and politely made an exit. Each year since, I've tried to stop by to browse. The exterior is disturbingly cluttered and trash piled on porches and in back by parking area. I've seen a man come out the back door to dump trash confirming that the place wasn't abandoned though it appears to be. My thought was that the unappealing mess is intentional to deter customers. The ebay sales make sense now since the business can still be run without having a storefront or even being on site. The online presence states location is open Saturdays only. Consider that Buy-the-Way has excellent reviews but from years ago around the time of my first visit - notice the only recent reviews are mostly negative from ebay purchases.

It was the discount that prompted me to go ahead with the purchase, thank you! The store was easy to find. I was met on the porch by a gentleman not wearing a mask. I had mine on. He extended his hand and well, I haven't interacted with humans in a LONG time so it was natural to shake his hand, all the while thinking, "What am I doing?!?" Rest assured I was very aware of not touching my face until I got home. I perused the store for a bit. It was crowded and full of interesting stuff. I was distracted, but if things were different I would have enjoyed taking my time. The propriator came down and the pick up was complete. I have to say that I LOVE the piece I purchased and I'm SO glad she offered a discount. Oh, she did have a mask on, which made me feel better. We chatted a bit about art and she said she'd keep an eye out for the type of stuff I collect. After I got back I received a message about completing the purchase with a QR code. I had no idea, but it must be a part of the purchasing process when something is picked up in person. Completing this online was a piece of cake. Bottom line, if you're into antiques and you're in the neighborhood, check out Buy The Way Artiques (is that really the name, I had no idea!)

The owner, Susan, has excellent taste and an eye for quality pieces. This is the place to go to find one-of-a-kind treasures. This presents a major problem for me. I am trying my best to eliminate stuff from my life. I would love to live in a minimalist house. When I come here it is hard for me to not come home with something. I kick myself for not buying a 19th century silver chop warmer that I saw here years ago. I have no idea what I would have used it for, but it was beautiful piece. Now, I have to remind myself that I don't need a set of Theodore Haviland 19th century oyster plates. Luckily, I did not have my check book and left without them. I hope they are gone when I go back to look at a Depression Glass sandwich server that caught my eye, this plate is more in my budget range. Maybe this will be gone too and I can just wish I had them. The shop also offers tea classes and high teas
