We planned a day trip from Des Moines IA to Lincoln NE on July 5th with stops in Omaha NE and…read moreCouncil Bluffs IA on our way home... This "mall" was our last stop on the way home. And what a sour note to end a trip on... The short and sweet... Just skip this one. Seriously. I'm not sure if they recently had a massive water leak or what exactly happened... Half of the lighting was out (most of the standing locked display cases weren't even lit) and there is a strong mold smell that is is sometimes overwhelming. I can see by past reviews (after 2016 or so at least) that this is probably "normal" for here and why I should have searched it on Yelp before mapping it out as part of our trip. I thought we were alone until we ran across a couple of other customers about 10 min into looking around. At no point when we entered did I see anyone up front. We should have just walked out, but it was like driving by a bad train wreck you know it's awful, it's not going to get better, but you have to keep looking and can't pull your attention away from it. Some of the display items on the walls are kind of cool. A couple exotic mounts and a zebra skin. And others... Whitetail mounts that look like they had CWD (chronic wasting disease). I'd be afraid to buy ANYTHING here. Fabric... No idea how long you would have to air something out before the smell would be gone... How many times you've have to wash something if you could wash it...? Hard goods...maybe. Electronics....with the humidity in there...no. As we were leaving I could hear someone talking on the phone. I guess there was someone there after all...? The gist of the side of the conversation I could hear. "No. They're not selling here. Some are online. But the only way they sell here is if they are marked free..." No sir... The reason ANYTHING is not selling here is because of poor lighting, the smell, the high prices, and merchandise slowly rotting on the walls and shelves. If I ordered something online and figured out it came from here...I'd return it. If I was a vendor here...I'd pull my items. It can't be worth it. You'll never be able to bring them home or sell them someplace else after they've absorbed the smell. And the possible health risks to you while restocking your shelf/booth/case... We made a mental note. We will NEVER waste our time stopping here again. I prayed our clothes and hair did not carry the smell with us. A scalding 20 min shower is all we could do to try to get the feeling of "funk" off of us from here once we got home. You might think I'm being petty or an elitist, but I grew up in rural Iowa. I'm used to "digging." Garage sales, estate auctions, barn sales... I'll dig a part out of wrench and go salvage yards. I've been to sketchy shops and even dumpster dove before. A little dirt and a musty smell doesn't phase me... But this place literally made my skin crawl.

Original review: 4 stars They had a huge selection -- from…read moretools to toys. Not every area is easy to navigate, but it's doable for the most part. It smelled like a normal antique store, not nearly as bad as other reviews suggest. The pricing was overall pretty reasonable for an antique store and similar to what you'd see at places like the Brass Armadillo. My sole complaint is the men at the counter discussing politics... I came to shop, not to hear distasteful opinions. I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable giving my money to this business again, given the politics of the business, but I did enjoy my trip overall. Update: 1 star I did end up returning despite the politics and was very disappointed in the old man behind the counter. He gave nothing but attitude. I mean, I'd be mad too if I was at risk of a trash avalanche. I must've gone on a good day before because the building STUNK. This place sucks. I also noticed about 20% of the stuff he's selling isn't even close to antique. A lot of it is heavily marked up things that were designed to look old or just not old at all. This place is truly a disappointment. Skip it and make the drive to brass armadillo, you'll have a much better time.

Was it cheap? no, but honestly most antique stores aren't cheap these days.

At points in my life I have collected comic books, other comic book related items, movie related merchandise, and diecast. This place has all that and more...! Shop smart and take your cell phone to stare and compare. I found a few items reasonably priced, but I found quite a few more that were well above what they could be purchased for online including shipping. One thing about collectibles though... Sometimes it's worth a few dollars more to have it in your hands. I've been surprised a few times when I received items that weren't as described or packaging was damaged in transit. Antiques and collectibles are a different market as a buyer... If you see something you want it's better to buy it right then if it's priced within reason. You may never find that same item again... Old Market is what Old Market is... It's geared to tourists and things are often a little high priced in areas like this. So is their rent usually... These areas attract a high volume of people and if you don't want to pay the marked price...someone who comes in right behind you just might. Some of the items here are a little dusty, but I guess that's to be expected with that many surfaces. Pretty hard to stay on top of all of it... The Imaginarium Old Market Mercantile is defintely worth the stop if you are into collectibles and/or nostalgia!
