I love that proceeds from this shop benefits a hospice care facility and that they had a parking lot for patrons. On my visit they had some ugly Christmas sweaters, variety of jewelry pieces, and coats. Thy also had misc knick knacks, furnitures, children and men's items. Pricing for items seemed reasonable here. It's a cozy thrift shop and I think it's worth a visit depending on what you're looking for.

Great prices on just about anything you can imagine including furniture. Be sure to look at everything before hand, we bought a bookcase for $75 then when we picked it up noticed that the back was falling apart. I don't believe most of the auctions have a reserve but I can't say for sure, in some cases they have gone down to $1 for a piece of furniture . The speed is pretty quick so you need to pay attention or you may miss the item you want. Some of the people that work here take it upon themselves to describe things to the nth degree when they bring them up but should really just stick to holding things .

We had them come into our parents house which is on the market for $350,000, and they said they were interested in taking everything we had except for the piano and a loveseat. They said in about a week, we should expect a check. Almost 4 weeks later, we received a check for a little over $30.00. The list included a large dining table with a bench and chairs, a sofa and matching chair, a hutch, a buffet, antique stereo cabinet and so so much more.

Attending Townsend Auction Gallery is like stepping back in time. He has been auctioning literally…read morefrom birth. (Youngest auctioneer to receive a license on record in VT, I believe.) His passion and love for the items he so carefully describes, with always a unique background of it, is unmatched. "Here we go, and around we go." "A gift to you Sir," can be heard as you walk in the hall. He especially loves selling antique furniture, and describes it to a T, right down to the elemental construction. He wants the buyer to really have a deep understanding and appreciation for what they are purchasing. He scours New England for the best estates and pieces he can muster. Oftentimes working countless hours, he continues to push through and never stops trying. Even though the prices that once were are all but gone, and trying to maintain a positive demeanor in the face of it can often be too much to bear. Kit is the type of person that is keeping the antique business breathing. Be sure to check Townshend auction out, every Saturday, and enjoy the beautiful ride that takes you there.
