My very rare 5 star review…read more I absolutely love a great antique mall, especially one that is well organized with so many unique booths and treasures that you could easily forget about every other shop. I was especially impressed when I saw they advertised Chicago street signs on their Facebook page. I quickly called and asked if they could please hold one for me, and to my surprise, they did. That was a big deal to me because many antique malls will not hold items. Even better, when I arrived, the sign was still available and I was able to purchase it for the exact price I was quoted. For that, I was truly grateful. The only downside of my visit was that the store was very crowded, so I did not get the chance to keep browsing the way I wanted to. I had every intention of spending more money, but my $100+ purchase was enough for the day. Overall, this is an awesome shop, and I honestly think I just found my new favorite antique mall!

We stopped by the other day to take a look around. I love browsing antique shops. This place has…read moretwo floors filled with beautiful antiques and vintage items. It is a little pricy depending what you're interested in. When we went, lots of the booths featured Christmas decorations. I fell in love with a beautiful retro Santa. He will bring magic and merriment to our home each holiday season starting next year (my husband wouldn't let me have my present early, or Santa would be proudly on display this year too lol). Everything I looked at was in good condition, especially considering how old some of the items were. I was hoping to see more vintage clothes and housewares, so I'll have to go back after the holidays to see what they put out. Staff was friendly and helpful. I'll be back soon I'm sure.

I am glad they are closed down for now. I had a really horrible experience there one day at the…read moreantique mall. There was a broken doll on the floor, and one of the staff members kept following me and asked if I was the one who broke it. I told them no, but then two staff members continued following me around, demanding that I pay for it and threatening to call the police. Their behavior was very intimidating, and I ended up crying in front of them while asking them to stop treating me that way. I truly felt profiled and discriminated against during the entire situation. Afterward, I posted a Google review and tried many times to contact the manager, but my calls never resolved anything. Eventually, their lawyer contacted me and asked me to remove the review, saying they would have the staff go through training. However, that did not resolve the harm that was done, because the experience left me traumatized.

Absolutely HORRIBLE experience. I went to their storefront a couple years ago and everything was…read moreextremely expensive but this past weekend I went to an estate sale. On Friday I asked about some items and just for a pottery bowl they wanted $65. I asked about some artwork it was $500 for 2. That same artwork did not sell over the entire weekend. I saw one worker being a bit rude to another worker which isn't ok in front of people but I assumed it was stress. Then they posted a video in a beautiful MCM living room saying "the house is jam packed" and "bring a semi." I went a bit early since it was confusing "11-1" for the sale but "9-1" online. I saw people asked questions but no comments back until right before the time. They were giving 9-11am the last chance for people to buy "lower than retail" probably since so much was so expensive for an estate sale and even after 3 days they still didn't want to even try going down. They tried to sell a Frank Lloyd wright PRINT (not an original at allll) for $300. They tried to sell a woman a nightgown dress from like JC Penny for $30!!! But thankfully they said they could for $25 just for today (before the $25 deal at 11). After MULTIPLE people expressed their frustration and anger with the misleading marketing they created a generic response in person AND online, I decided to express my disappointment and let others know there wasn't actually anything they advertised. I was highly respectful regarding providing feedback and how to provide better customer experience so people can avoid driving 2-3 hours for some binders and scraps (which yes some people can score but none of what was left was worth a 2 hour drive since you could find it closer to your home probably). When I commented, I noticed someone else was mentioning they are deleting comments regarding feedback. I since then started to screenshot my comments to ensure I had proof of what they were and weren't saying. I mentioned how they were moving furniture out and they commented back they were deliveries from "the couple that purchased them" but I was talking about artwork that I was eyeing on the first day but it barely went down in price.... And they were taking it to their store front which they said out loud too! So it's not like they sold everything. Then I quickly found out from someone else that they blocked me. I didn't get photos of all my comments but needless to say I won't be supporting them. They only care about numbers and marketing even if it's at the expense of customers. Is that a company you really was to support when there are other people that yes they need to make a living but haven't lost their humanity for people? Unless you are willing to overpay a company that is has a lot of false advertising then I wouldn't support them. Hopefully they won't remove this comment. It's sad to see them doubling down and instead of correcting themselves or expressing that their sorry.... they delete and continue to do what their doing.
