A gorgeous mint maxi dress and cap sleeve blouse and few other items that I left behind, which I was kicking myself when sitting on the plane. Definitely spend some time looking through their racks and tables. Prices were a bit on the higher side for some things and reasonable for others. Will stop by again when I'm back in town.

It's an okay location to look through to see what you can find. Unfortunately, I did not find…read moreanything for me but lots of people seemed to. Their prices are higher, they had Nike air max with a $74 price tag. They had a foldie bag that retails for $60 brand new for $50. I'm sure their prices re based on their location. Parking is $2 an hour and you may have to circle a few times to find one. I hit lucky and found one right down the street. Staff didn't seem to greet anyone upon entering. Stuff was very organized. They have several dressing rooms.

They do continuously spray some essential oil throughout the store. If you are alergic to essential oils or scents, you could die in here.

This does not make for a pleasant vintage shopping environment. It was quite annoying, so I did not stay long at all. Please just put some nice music on for the customers. They did have a cool vintage collection from the quick scan I did, but the environment of the shop made me leave before I could look through everything.

Only open sometimes, blink and you'll miss it. I really enjoyed perusing and taking it all in... they've got some really neat pieces, though nothing jumped out at me this visit as a "must have." And honestly, I couldn't help but feel like everything was priced just *a touch* too high. Totally understand paying for quality antiques in relatively perfect condition, but this spot felt almost like everything was priced $50-$100 above fair market value.

We wandered around R Vintage during the Bay View Bash - it's a lot bigger than the storefront…read moresuggests. If you're into 50-60's glass, lamps, décor and furniture this is absolutely a place you should be checking out. They've got tons of interesting barware, lamps shaped like flamingos, beer signs for your awesome basement bar and lots of tacky paintings. I was surprised by how much furniture they had - console tables, tons of side chairs and the kind of horribly patterned upholstered sofas that my grandma referred to as "davenports". Speaking of my grandma, I'm pretty sure she owned most of this stuff at some point, especially the matador figurines because bullfighting??? IDK, never could quite figure out what theme grandma had going on in her living room. Anyway, I'd agree with Rachel that the prices on stuff here seem to be higher than at other vintage/antique shops. I'm guessing the high amount of vintage-loving hipsters in BV are driving prices up. Also be aware that the shop is PACKED full, so it's not a great place for smaller kids.

Plume vintage is the place to go to for woman's vintage clothing. My first time going I was…read moreextremely impressed. The selection is immaculate. They have 3 separate rooms. On the first floor is blouses, sweaters, and accessories. One room upstairs has skirts, pants and black dresses. The last room has jackets, lingerie, and evening apparel. I would categorize the vintage clothes as upscale vintage not really granola vintage. The decor throughout is gorgeous. It's very 80s class decor and they have lovely couches and rugs throughout. Also can't forget the service. The cashier was extremely helpful and even helped me choose between sunglasses.

They have three rooms: a down stairs and two upstairs locations on opposite sides of the downstairs. I found a dress that was really great and I left it behind but am kicking myself for that.

This German Shepherd strolls into a bank and sits down at one of the service desks where Patricia…read moreBlack just got promoted to lending officer and was working her first day. The German Shepherd says he needs some money for home renovations, so the surprised new bank officer asks if he has any collateral. The canine offers up this antique artsy-fartsy thing saying it's worth a lot of money, he got it at On and On Milwaukee for much less than it's actually worth because the prices at this antique store are so reasonable. The lending officer is at a loss, this just wasn't covered in her extensive training so she excuses herself to see the bank manager for advice. She tells him "there's a German Shepherd who can talk who wants money for some renovation work, but all he has to secure it is this vintage thing I don't even know what it is, what should I do?" So the manager tells her, "It's a knick knack Patty Black, give the dog a loan." I'm sorry I don't actually know if they allow dogs in here, talking or not. They do sell all sorts of unusual art and antiques at very reasonable prices and it's right next to a wonderful wine bar and an excellent coffee shop.

Quite often my clients request that I accompany them on a shopping excursion for various home-decor…read moreitems: furniture, accessories, lamps, decorative objects, and the like; this is my job and I enjoy it very much. One of my clients recently requested I escort them to Chano's Warehouse in Milwaukee this past Saturday; I was not certain what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. The exterior is somewhat sparse: a few lawn/garden tools, stacks of chairs/bins, and little else. It gives every appearance of an over-sized pole-barn and to be frank that's exactly what it is. The carpark is somewhat disorganised, but there is plenty of space and also parking available on the street. The warehouse itself is enormous, with all manner of items available for purchase: furniture, china, glasses, toys, clothing, and so on. There are vintage items: phonograph records, farm implements, period toys, etc. I was very pleasantly surprised to observe that although piled high, all the items were clean and polished; the towels/sheets/linens appeared to have been laundered and were folded/arranged nicely. The glasses were beautifully polished and the furniture was spanking clean. Yes, there is some disarray; there are heaps and heaps of things and one cannot attend to everything. Yes, the pricing is very fair; I did not think anything was too dear although some items were marked. However, considering how many items were available, this is probably not surprising and Maria, when ringing me up, offered very reasonable amounts to me (which I accepted). Yes, there is some haggling allowed on the pricing; I was able to chat for a bit with Maria, the owner, who was very friendly and told me how much she enjoyed having this business and welcoming customers. Yes, there was a line but it moved quickly and quite honestly, there was so much to look at I really didn't think it took that long. It may be reasonable to suggest that the success of Chano's Warehouse is perhaps unanticipated and that Maria and her staff are doing the best they can. Nobody's perfect. I enjoyed my visit to Chano's Warehouse (as did my clients) and look forward to returning soon (with more clients).

Finally made it to Chanos!…read more Lots of stuff to look through! Hard part was it's 50/50 in items being labeled for pricing. Which is a little odd then when you make it to checkout/makes me personally not want to grab non-labeled items. Another customer told me you can kind of bargain/haggle the pricing but if that isn't something you're comfortable doing... Overall the price I was given for my total was my max I would have spent had she gone higher I would have asked her to individually note the prices so I could put one thing back. I personally would have priced it probably $5 less especially due to one of the items being a short basket that had some imperfections and I couldn't see it being valued for more than $3 based on average of other places I'd been.
