I absolutely love dropping into Fishy Finds when I have some spare time. I could and have spent hours searching through all of the amazing items from times past. Prices are awesome. I got a mexican metal belt here for $15. It is so cool & unusual. Everyone I recommend always comes back to me with excitement about items they bought..... The staff is very friendly & helpful. read more

They have such a great assortment of antiques! Every time I go in there are new items for sale. The people are so friendly and caring. I was even looking for something specific and let the owner Tonia know, and when she found it, I was called so I could go get it. Being on the customer list allows me to know when new items come in. I can't get enough of Fishy Finds and their deals. read more

Great place If you love thrifting / antiquing and digging through stuff! Inventory changes and you can find some amazing deals especially when they have sales. Only thing is nothing is priced (which is understand due to their large inventory) so make sure you are not double charged if you buy a lot of treasures at one time. Highly recommend! read more

Met these folks when they were running an estate sale, and really enjoyed working with them. Unlike other companies that price everything ridiculously high as if they were Sotheby's or something, they are very reasonable and VERY friendly and personable. Next time I'm in their area, I'll make a trip to the store, too! read more

Finally, a great junk shop in Simi Valley! Or so I hoped. Yes, it is a junk shop. However the owner has delusions of grandeur. You would think she's running a boutique with how she prices her items. read more

The place is fantastic, don't get me wrong. Love the mish-mosh of junk and hidden treasures, every once in a while it looks wonderful but its usually a disaster area (this is often the fun of it, however). The problem, as with many businesses, is with the ownership. The blond woman who claims to be the proprietor is a bit off at best (although she seems very sweet and intelligent at first, often at last if your dealings with her remain minimal). Once you become a regular customer, it becomes quite obvious that this is a facade and she is disorientingly capricious. Great place for shopping regardless, although I would recommend researching any item you wish to buy before settling on a price (Nothing is priced and the owner seems to pull prices out of a hat, prices usually reflecting her taste for the item and not real value). Trusting the owner with your consignment items or estate is an arduous task of riding her for checks (you have to go in and request them), and wondering where your items have disappeared to. When your items do sell, you often will find yourself disappointed by a low profit on your small check. DISCLAIMER: do NOT believe a word that she says about how much she thinks she can get for an item when you first bring it in! What she thinks (or lack there of) is often irrelevant, as she does not actually seem to know what she is talking about). Nevertheless, keep to being a casual shopper, be cautious, and DO try to avoid saying anything condescending to the owner (she WILL flip!). Follow these rules and you may find yourself with a new favorite antique playground. Happy hunting, good luck, and you will be happy with your first few visits here (really you will! Its a fantastic place), just be aware of the situation at hand, and take everything that you are told with a sizable helping of salt. P.S. If you are disabled, have trouble getting around cramped places, or extremely clumsy, use caution, isles are small and some of my peers have fallen (we are not all spry youngsters able to hop over isle blockages and maneuver through cramped spaces anymore), leave wheelchairs and large strollers at home, or be prepared to keep your elderly/injured or children out front or by the front door. Update: After a long absence I returned to fishy finds to find a pleasant change, the store seems much more navigable and better merchandised than in the past. Everything else is unfortunately seemingly status quo, best advice I could give this business owner is to calm down, and realize that she has been in business "over 9 years" or so she claims. . . So clearly she or her staff are doing something right, and that something right is not puffing things up and acting like you are lofty and above us all. We can all learn something new. So here is something for you to learn. 925 IS STERLING SILVER so stop acting like you know better and saying it isn't: By definition and international agreement "sterling" silver is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% some other material - usually copper. The 92.5% is why jewelry is often stamped with the numbers 925 or .925. Just a friendly tip. . . Because you sound like a buffoon read more

The owner is a nasty stressed out and a bit of a control freek. She does estate sales which i wont go to anymore and buys the stuff out. She is un-organized and its not fun at her sales. she sells off stuff she holds for you for more money and not truthful i bought a ring she said was real gem and i wondered i said it was glass she said she had a gemologist. it turned out to be glass. she snaps at her employee and customers during a sale and has to control every price from every room so she is pulled to the extreme. i can spend else where. read more

Over priced for what you get. Went to one of their estate sales and it was so ridiculously over priced. A used and cushion torn patio couch that needs cushion replacement and to be sanded and painted, they want $525 for it! Brand new in Lowes it is available for $450 and the quality was the same. The name of the business leaves a question mark as to their business practices. The employees are nice. The owner...did not like the realistic information about their pricing. All over this is a severely overpriced garage sale. read more

A veritable smorgasbord of home goods from estates, commissions, and who knows where. Like looking through a gigantic garage sale from several generations and all sorts of people that have collected or left behind everything you can think of. Have fun in the hunt ! Excellent customer service. read more

So surprised by all the good reviews as that was not my experience today. I was hardly acknowledged as the person working was too busy talking to someone and ignored me She kind of directed me in one direction and then walked away. The place is so packed you really can't see what they have besides anything not enclosed in a case is so dusty and dirty. .After walking around the clutter a few minutes, I gave up and headed out. Guess who was still talking and didn't acknowledge my exit. Very poor customer service. Although there is lots of merchandise, I will never go back. read more

Based on some of the reviews from other members, it seems that the owner has managed to maintain an image of someone who is not psycho. At first impression it seems that she is knowledgeable of the items she sells but if you find yourself having to deal with her on a semi-regular basis, you realize that she is delusional, pulls prices out of nowhere, and is in the business of making profit at the expense of other people. It's rather unfortunate because I did enjoy shopping there but it is not worth the stress of having to deal with the owner. read more

This is hands down my favorite antique store in Southern California. My wife and I are out antiquing a few days a week and have not found its equal. The owner is great as is the rest of the staff. There is always new inventory to look over. I will be a regular forever read more

My favorite vintage shop!!! And the owner is the sweetest ever ! I've came several times with my kids and she's been so patient and just a sweetie! There's so many great stuff to look at and buy. I do lots of DIYs at home and this place is perfect. Plus I love rustic decor. You must go and check it out. read more

Always friendly. Very informative on items in the store. Which is truly refreshing. I've been to several stores that don't care. No interest and not engaging whatsoever. Erica and Tanya are darlings and they are always interested in locating items for me. IF your looking for a prim antique store that is non social and unengaging then go elsewhere because this is not the store for you. They truly like what they do here and they are always welcoming to customers. read more

We used Fishy Finds for an estate sale and had a disasterous experience. It took almost 3 years and MANY, MANY emails to get all (or so I was told) of the money owed us. Items were sold at lower than agreed upon prices, such as a $13,000 piano sold for $4000. The money was paid in payments taking almost 3 years. I hadn't heard from Tania for over a year and finally emailed her to see where the rest of the payments were. I don't think I would have ever heard from her. We never received a list of items she supposely took to her store to sell. She said items left (almost half of a large house) were donated. but didn't supply a donation slip till I pushed her for one 3 years later. Than I got one from an animal place in Simi. The sale was in Brentwood. There was never any discussion about things being donated as there were items left in the house that we would never have donated. All in all the experience is one I would not wish on anyone. NEVER USE THEM FOR AN ESTATE SALE,. read more

Just want to give a shoutout to Tania and her amazing crew. Fishy Finds handled our Estate Sale and they were incredible. They were so professional and did an amazing job. You can tell that Tania knows her business. I can't say enough good things. If you need an Estate Sale handled, Fishy Finds is the only place you need. read more

This is one of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE places!! Where else can you find SO MANY antiques/vintage goodies from floor to ceiling??!! LITERALLY!! This place has it ALL!! Dish ware, glassware, pottery, furniture, tools, toys, bottles, clothes, books,....etc The owner Tania is a wonderful, sweet and very knowledgeable woman. She is respectful of your space and doesn't follow you around unless you call on her for help. Otherwise you're free to treasure hunt. The company name is highly appropriate because you have to fish if you want to find but that's NOT a bad thing. At least not for me. I absolutely love the thrill of the hunt and the fair prices are the cherry on top. I can spend hours in this place and have so much fun. Tania is very considerate to her customers, as she allows her patrons use of the restroom and keeps boxes of gloves available, so that her customers can keep their hands clean. She goes above and beyond to work with those who want deals, even though there are some pushy customers who don't always deserve them. She's running a business, not a free giveaway. It's customary in the antiques trade to expect some negotiating, NOT haggling. What's the difference?? In a negotiation, both parties walk away winners. Haggling is one person trying to take advantage of the other. And now with "Yelp" it's so easy to ruin someone's business reputation because you didn't get your way or that $20 item for $.50. Be kind....just saying read more

So many wonderful things to look at! Amazing finds from local estates, some dating back 100 years or more. It's a bit overwhelming at first glance with things piled up on top of other things. Things in baskets, things in drawers but, once you begin to carefully sift through you start to feel like a picker/treasure hunter. My fiance and I went here for "Black Friday" shopping and we were not disappointed. I highly recommend you have time to spend looking when you go here. The treasure hunt is worth it! The workers were attentive and smiling, over all a wonderful experience. read more
