The shop…read moreitself is a really eclectic space which sort of feels like a living room in a really comfy house. The set-up is full of nooks and crannies with display cases, shelves and tabletops covered in knick-knacks, vintage items, clothes, knitted hats, handmade crafts, paintings, prints, photos, zines, vintage books... you name it. What I really like about this store is that it seems there's something for everyone. The items are quirky, useful and in many cases, one-of-a-kind. If you're looking for something to treat yourself with or give as a heartfelt gift - or even if you'd like to kill some time - I highly recommend stopping by. Melinda, the owner, is very approachable, friendly and knowledgable. She is available to talk about whatever may grab your attention. I ended up purchasing a print of a delightful cat wearing a sailor's outfit, sitting by the sea on a cheery day, called "Sea Cat". I really had my eye on a handmade, anatomically correct heart too, which I ended up receiving as a gift a few weeks later!

Went here to sell some gold with my sister. Before I went I did my homework, checked spot prices…read moreand sorted all the gold into 14K and 10K with a jewelers loop. I weighed and calculated the price I would like to get and the min price I would accept based on reasonable profit margin, FULLY expecting I would have to haggle price. Top price you can expect for gold (unless premium brand gold Tiffany's etc or rare vintage pieces) is 80% of melt value. I inspected each piece with a jewelers loop to find markings. We showed up right around closing time (they close at two) but they had a gent in the room already. I was greeted by the father and told they would take us as soon as they finished up (around 15 minutes,) if we wanted to wait. We were taken in, VERY courteous, polite, friendly and professional. I was impressed the son could recognize most of the pieces without a jewelers loop and those few he couldn't he put through a spectrometer and got confirmation instantly. The whole process took approximately 15 minutes... and we had a lot of pieces. In the end their offer was EXACTLY (within a few dollars) of the top price I expected to get. Paid cash on the spot. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that if you want a very positive experience... especially if you are not educated on value, to see this father and son team. I would not hesitate to trust their assessment of gold value now even if I didn't know a thing about it. If I could give a 10 star rating out of 5 I would.
