I would try to visit this store on a weekday day. We went on a Saturday and it was so busy, chaotic…read moreand a bit overwhelming. No staff maning the floor of the store. They just had cashiers with an extrmely long line. It took about 15 mins waiting in line to check out. Certian sections are well orgnized and others are not. It looks a bit dingy and messy in parts of the store. They allow dogs so that is nice and their sales benefit the Humane society which is awesome! We brought our pup. I found a few great nicknacks and a great little bench seat with an embroidered top for $7.99. Needs to be refinished. Really good prices on many things. There were not enough people working and they were kind of unproffesional and unhelpful. They seemed extremely stressed. I wanted to see things in a locked in a case on the floor. I politely asked the clerk about it and she said it will be like a half hour and never looked up at us at all or when checking us out or said anything pleasant or nice. Something for them to work on. Some customers also seem clueless about just standing in the way of others from looking at things and chit chatting for 5 - 10 minutes. It is not a coffee shop people.

Eccentric is absolutely the right word for this fantastic little vintage boutique on Main Street,…read morethat has been here for...quite some time. The hand-selected articles of clothing, hats, jewelry and accessories available here are certainly quirky, but also fashionable and functional. Whomever curates the collection here has an eye for the theatrical and flamboyant; many of the items here could easily double as Halloween costume components. There's no shortage of vintage clothing stores in the Portland metro area, but many of them charge truly outrageous prices for scraps and rags that only the most unaffected urchin would be caught dead wearing. Thankfully, that's not the case here: there's something for everyone, from casual to formal, grounded to glamorous, simple to sophisticated. Prices range from reasonable to unbelievably cheap (they even have a $1 rack with clothes that don't suck?! how), making the Urban Eccentric a budget-friendly bargain hunter's dream.

I would not recommend anyone consign with Deja Vu…read more I first heard about the shop on TikTok and decided to give them a try. I brought in around $100 worth of merchandise, including higher name brands like Micheal Kors, but only ended up receiving about $40 after my consignment period was over. What frustrated me the most was how little I was paid compared to what my items sold for. Their communication was also disappointing. At one point, I was told they were going to pull one of my items, but later I was told it had already sold. For example, my a.n.a skirt originally cost over $30 at Jc Penny. They sold it for $11, but I only received about $2 in compensation. I also consigned a Coach banana makeup bag that originally retailed for over $80 and received very little for it. After seeing what I was paid for several items, I felt the consignment process simply wasn't worth it. While a few of the employees were friendly, I left feeling like I didn't receive fair value for my belongings., I would recommend selling your items yourself online instead of consigning with them.

The person who rang me out was so friendly! I will absolutely be back to visit again.

I especially appriacte all of the different rooms and outdoor spaces they have. Out front you'll find furniture and clothes on sale, right inside there's a whole room of knick knacks and jewelry, followed by a room of bags and shoes, then one of clothes, an outdoor area that features outdoor and garden goods, a kitchen area, and an upstairs where you can find lamps, children's, and furniture! There is seriously a little bit of everything and it can take a couple rounds through the store to feel confident you haven't missed anything. I highly recommend stopping in!
