Since most places here seem only to have a few reviews each, I thought I would make it a personal project to review each place I try to help fellow travelers in their searches. I was shocked to find this place had such low reviews; I found it absolutely refreshing to find such a beautifully curated shop with clothes and jewelry that really spoke to my interests. Most of the one star reviews said they felt ignored when they visited, and maybe that's where I differ from other shoppers as I prefer to take my time and have the space to do so. When I started a conversation with her, we had a lovely chat and she was very warm and kind. I am tempted to keep this gem to myself but my conscience won't let me do that...this is a place you should definitely make a regular haunt.

The mention of "antiques" is a huge stretch. This is a consignment store. I think I saw only one legitimate antique. Everything else is pretty much household goods and decor and lots of used clothing. I'm sure some people may find something of interest, but I certainly wouldn't describe this store as having antiques.

I feel compelled to leave a review regarding my experience with selling gold here. You can see my…read moreother reviews, I have been selling scrap gold for 15 years or so as a way to finance new jewelry I want to have made for myself. I had about 16 grams of scrap 22K gold I had to sell a few months ago. The gold was worth about $1100. I met with Kevin when I entered and as he was weighing my items (I also have a professional scale and weigh everything before submitting), he told me he only works in Pennyweights and would not be able to tell me the conversion to grams as he "does not know how the conversion works". I have never encountered a bench jeweler who would say that. He is extremely rude. Let's say he really doesn't know about conversions, a simple google search could correct that (which is what I did). He offered about $500. Being new to the area which is a smaller town and about to leave on vacation in a day, I accepted the offer, but later when I compared the receipt he had given me along with the weights in pennyweights, they didn't align with my measured weights once I converted the values I had written down. At this point I could not do anything, but felt a bit crappy about the whole transaction. Skip ahead to last week when I took a well measured pouch of 22k gold jewelry as a test, some of it scrap, and was again given an extremely low-ball offer. Here is some perspective: it was 19.585 Pennyweight or 30.36 grams. The baseline value of the gold at the worst rate is $1980. He offered me $915, which is about $700 less than the best offer I got from another local buyer and about $500 less than the worst offer I got from a local pawn shop. Needless to say, I did not sell my scrap gold to him. This is not someone I would want to work with in the future nor would I consider for selling any gold in the future. I would consider his lack of clarity during the buying process to be highly suspect and think this has probably been the most unpleasant experience I have ever had selling gold. I have received low-ball offers before, but at least those people have been upfront about their business model. I can't say the same here. Condensed version: Rude, unprofessional, doesn't give clear explanations, and gives the lowest prices in the area for any jewelry or gold you will want to sell. STAY AWAY!

He is friendly and explains what he can do and why he can't do something (wrong metal for example), I've never had a problem.

He also has a nice selection of new and consignment / vintage pieces, which I always check out and often shop from.
