On each occasion that I shopped there, both women working at the shop are both quite knowledgable, friendly, and always guide me w/ suggestions of what i might be looking for. Every time I find what I'm looking for, and am very happy with each purchase from A Priori. It's a very pleasant place to shop & find gifts for family members & in my own home.

It's really like a candy store for adults - there's something amazing (and made my local makers) in every corner you look! On this most recent visit, I went a couple days after Christmas and stocked up on holiday cards and ornaments for 2021 since all their holiday items were 50% off. The entire store was also 25% off as per their end-of-year sale. They have a fantastic selection of cards, gifts, homewares, jewelry, accessories, and select clothing items. It's the perfect place to treat yourself or others. They're doing a great job limiting people in their store and have hand sanitizer available.

Considering the small space, the store has a surprisingly large selection of items and it's all well organized. When checking out, the cashier was friendly and rang me up quickly. When I'm looking for a greeting card, gift or needing to stock up on utensils/tools for the house and kitchen, I will come back to Palm + Perkins. Just a thoughtful, gem of a store in the neighborhood.

I can't afford the higher priced items even on sale, but I've managed to get a few smaller effects that have added to my coastal decor in my Capitola home in a classy way. I've always had great customer service experiences at this store. When you see a product you like, you've got to pull it off the floor immediately so other covetous patrons can't grab it -- I've had people tell me they want something I'm holding in my hands if I decide not to buy it; the employees graciously hold my picks behind the counter for me. One time I was looking at rugs and an employee pulled up all the images of the rugs I was interested in for me on the website with an iPad since they can't unroll them for you. Another time I was buying a sconce light and the cashier grabbed me a brand new one still in the box to replace the display model. The inventory changes all the time and there's always a good selection with a lot of cool stuff. Occasionally something might be a little dented but mostly the merchandise is in perfect condition and good quality.

But lately, I'm having a hard time understanding who this place is for. The merchandise is secondhand, used as photo samples, damaged, or incomplete, yet the prices don't significantly reflect that. I've recently seen things like a wooden trestle table missing half a trestle, with the piece of wood with actual exposed nails sticking out & simply placed on its table top, priced as though it were lightly discounted. Yes things are marked down, but they are also frequently damaged, and recently, for me, the math ain't mathing. I used to enjoy coming here for some real finds. Not so much any more. Keep in mind, you've got to bring your own truck or hire a task rabbit to get the furniture purchased here to your home. Think all the inconveniences, but fewer and fewer of the deals. I was offered a discount today, of 20 percent, that only started after spending over $500. That's a commitment. To me, it feels like the secondhand goods remain the focus here, but the hunt is not yielding the same treasure.

I decided to look it up so my girlfriend, her sister, and I can go and check it outwhen. Lord behold it's in Berkeley! Ok, not a big deal, but we all kept thinking that they should fix the location across social media videos. We get there and parking isn't easy to find. You have to park in or around the other warehouses in the area or a couple of blocks away. After we found parking we made our way over and oh it was a huge disappointment to behold. I think we only stayed for a few minutes before we called it a bust and a waste of time. Do not, I repeat, do not believe the videos that these social media influencers are feeding your algorithm. There was so much trash, broken products, and some of the furniture that could be salvaged had ridiculous price tags on them. Some sets were incomplete, coffee mugs were cracked, tools rusted, and when asked about certain electronics working conditions they either didn't know or refused to check. Needless to say we were unimpressed and never coming back.
