    Cecilia is long gone (if she ever really existed at all), but what remains is one of the nicest and…read morelongest-running antiques/vintages shops in the Flint area. This store has been open since the early 80's and has been operated by the same owner a little over 25 years in the same location. Admittedly, the shop can be kind of easy to miss- you'll find it in a little strip mall across the street from Kroger and virtually next door to Jester's Lounge- but its inconspicuous location houses a world of interesting treasures. It's hard to imagine what's in store just from exterior appearances. First of all, this is a serious antiques shop. It's not a junk shop or thrift store commingling with that occasional rare find. No, this is a true blue, honest to goodness antiques store. From the rare and extremely valuable to the kitschy and suddenly popular again vintage wares, this little shop packs a punch when it comes to browsing for interesting artifacts of yore. Wall to wall, it's filled with centuries-old fine china tea sets, comic books, vintage depression glass, antique oil paintings and clocks, estate sale jewelry, old coins, 19th and early 20th century furniture (mirrors, chairs, china cabinets), retro lunch boxes, old chandeliers/lighting fixtures rescued from long-forgotten homes, vintage/antique dolls, kitsch memorabilia, vintage postcards, mint condition vinyl records from the 50's (and earlier), old typewriters, Art Deco figurines, and more. The owner seems to be a friendly chap who loves to chat and discuss antiques with anyone who walks in the door. I thought he was very nice and helpful, showing me where things were and offering up little anecdotes about most pieces, including how he acquired the piece, its history, how it was manufactured, etc. His stories are part of the charm of shopping here, I think. The store is small, but crowded. I found row upon row of cool things, but it is a tight squeeze, so be careful while traversing the narrow aisles for that one-of-a-kind treasure. I was slightly afraid I was going to knock something over, but the owner was super nice and told me not to worry and that he'd get something down for me if it was hard to reach. I thought it was nice that he informed me he doesn't follow the "you break it, you buy it" rule that some small shop owners have tried to adhere to (even though, technically, that's what insurance is for, which negates trying to enforce such a standard). I appreciated that he wasn't constantly muttering "be careful" or "you break it you buy it." I hate that. Toward the back of the store, it feels a little bit like a "catch all" room, teeming with unique items, like vintage memorabilia from long-gone businesses, old typewriters, antique objects ' arte, books, furniture, oil paintings/vintage illustrations, and china. The more I looked, the more I saw that I liked. Even though it was super crowded, everything was laid out nicely and well-maintained. I liked the eclectic selection and good quality condition of the merchandise. There are a few caveats, though. A lot of the pieces are not individually priced. If you're interested in something, you have to bring it to the attention of the owner and he'll tell you the price. A few of the larger items, like oil paintings and furniture, are priced, but smaller ticket pieces are not. That happened to me. I picked up a vintage green depression glass pitcher that I was interested in purchasing and he told me the price which he was willing to sell it to me at, which was only $15. I jumped at that and felt that was more than fair. He wrapped it carefully for me in an effort to avoid my new purchase getting any potential chips/damage and my transaction was complete. Another small caveat- it's cash only. This shop doesn't accept credit cards and never has to my recollection. That's a bummer and usually I avoid businesses with this philosophy, but when it comes to antiquing, it does still happen sometimes, so I made an exception. The owner does take layaway and down payments on items, though, to lessen the burden, particularly on larger pieces. If you're hoping to land some priceless antique tea set for a few bucks or a Homer Winslow landscape painting hidden under a pile of junk and forgotten about for $5, don't hold your breath. It won't happen. The owner seems to know his business pretty well and has a good feel for what pieces are worth and what they aren't. You won't unearth some rare relic of 19th century Americana for a few bucks because the management doesn't know its actual worth. In other words, this isn't the local Goodwill. The prices are fair and flexible, but you probably aren't going to walk away with something for a $1 that is worth thousands of dollars that was hidden away in someone's attic. You're better off trying your luck by hitting every garage sale you can tolerate in an effort to hit that kind of jackpot. Overall, it's a quaint antiques shop with a very personable vibe to it.

There are no signs on the door indicating a change in hours because of COVID or that the store is temporarily closed. I understand that COVID has changed things for businesses, but it's not that difficult to post a sign on the door and buy an answering machine for your business to inform customers of changes.

    Kind of a mess, but still filled with a few unique items…read more I had no idea this place existed until a few weeks ago. My husband and I were driving past it and turned around to stop in since it's an antiques shop and, well, we love vintage/antiques, so we figured there was no harm in taking a look. Honestly, it didn't look like much from the road and I can see why it was so easy to bypass without noticing it. It's located in a pretty nondescript strip mall with no discernible landmarks near it to mark the location. If you didn't pay attention, you'd pass right by without a second look, so definitely make certain to slow down and look for the sign, which isn't very visible at all. Seriously, may I suggest that the owner invest a better sign or something? The best thing about this store was the collectible Barbie collection in the back. If I wasn't really looking, I would never have noticed it. It was tucked far away into the back room in a corner. In that dusty, hidden corner was a treasure trove of limited edition collectible Barbies, still in their boxes, unused and untouched. Most of the boxes were still in pretty good condition, too. On that particular day, the store was having a one-day only sale on certain ones. It was more like a blowout sale- certain special edition Barbies were marked down to $5 each! I don't know, but whatever, I wasn't about to ask questions. I thought the sale price was too good to be true, especially after looking the Barbies in question up on Ebay, etc. I didn't hesitate and bought two right then and there. Both are valued at about $75-$85 online, so it was a bargain. The rest of the store was fairly organized, but the pricing was all over the map. Some things (china, Barbies, ephemera, vinyl, toys) were priced lower than I'd expect, though other things (Star Wars collectibles, jewelry, furniture) were priced higher than some things were actually worth. Quite a few things weren't clearly priced and I had to ask the manager/owner about them. I hate doing that. Just slap a clear price tag on it and leave it at that. Other than the Barbie collection, it was mostly furniture and a lot of Star Wars memorabilia. I don't care about that, but apparently the owner did. Truth be told, it felt a bit like a Star Wars convention in there, which isn't my cup of tea. I can't stand the Star Wars movies, however, to each his own. Customer service was a little lacking. The only employee in there (owner or manager???) seemed kind of cold and aloof, not rude necessarily, but a little more on the unfriendly side than most antique shop owners. Usually, they want to chat with you, however, not this guy. Nope, not at all. We received kind of a frosty reception when we walked in, like we were interrupting something. Maybe he was really busy doing something when we stopped by, I don't know. I do know that when I asked if he had a tissue so I could wipe some dust off my hand (the place was a little dusty, like many antique shops and flea markets), he sort of looked at me like I was interrupting him and he just pointed at a box of tissue behind the counter. Hmm, okay. Despite the semi-cold response from the guy behind the counter, we still picked up a few items (collectible Barbies and some vintage bar ware) that we wanted, but overall, I'd say there is room for improvement in terms of customer service and pricing. It's still worth a look.

    Really cute little home decor store I found merely by chance…read more. We stopped in after having business to do in the area and were delighted by this beautiful and whimsical little shop, which has lots of cute home decor, accessories, DIY rehabbed furniture, antiques, craft paints, jewelry, and much more.. I had no clue it was here til I saw the front window display with such charming items, which visually drew my eye, that I had to stop in. My husband and I shopped around a bit, saw many cute things we thought would look great in our redecorated sunroom, and chatted with the owner, who is super friendly, knowledgeable and nice..she carefully wrapped up my purchases, including some ceramic pieces and some vintage jewelry and mentioned they have DIY furniture/craft paint classes during non business hours, too- I dint know how much those cost, but the classes sounded interesting and I think we'll delve into that a tad more. We're both huge DIY furniture flip types, and rehabbing and painting (or just sprucing it up) old antiques and worn out furniture kinda is our thing now.. lol..if you're a "Flea Market Flip" or "Shabby Chic" type of fan, the restoration style of the merchandise here might be your thing. I know I was a kid in a candy store after finding this little retail gem.. and I didn't even know it was here. If you like country core aesthetic, rustic/modern, shabby chic or farmhouse design, you might like the stuff they have here. It's a little store yet there's a lot to see.. Prices were pretty moderate and the selection is quite varied, with great customer service (which is difficult to come by in the world of retail). I'll definitely shop here again.

    I am formally notifying Value City Furniture of serious service failures regarding my order of two…read moremodular sectionals. Key facts: Manufacturer delay of four weeks was already communicated. Confirmed delivery did not arrive on the scheduled date. No communication of the delay was provided. After repeated attempts (four calls, emails, nonfunctional chat link), I was told delivery will now occur in 10 days, with no ability to expedite or reschedule. I was refused contact information for the manufacturer or delivery company and told VCF is not responsible and there is nothing they can or will do. Value City Furniture / American Signature is failing its duty to provide timely service, transparency, and accountability. This is unacceptable. As consumers demand for immediate action: Written confirmation of the exact delivery date with expedition of delivery. Full contact information for the manufacturer and delivery company. Explanation for the lack of timely communication. Compensation or remediation for inconvenience and disruption, including lost work time and being without furniture during the holiday. As paying customers, we have a right to transparency, timely service, and recourse for failures.

I purchased one at Sterling Heights that was like brand new and I went to the flint store upon arrival I asked for the person who the rep spoke to prior to me arriving there, she proceeds to show me the lamp, the lamp is damaged which she told the rep on the phone I said ok I still wanted as I wanted the pair again the one in Sterling Heights was $100 and practically brand new, flint lamp damaged and shaking bad $279 upon my arrival but per the phone call the rep stated that it would be $100 I asked for the manager she (Donna) pretended to be the manager, I went to the car then decided to go back in and try one more time, then she stated she is not the manager he is not there today! Talk about the worst Customer service I literally drove two hours to get the other lamp!! I won't be shopping at Value city again and I would never shop at the flint store as the staff there has the worst customer and they staff don't even know what position they are really hired for they don't know if they are managers or associates upon ass
