It's throwback heaven. Eye candy for the pack rat in all of us. Also a smart place to pick up deals…read moreto help you with that room you've been wanting to redecorate. A friendly crew of people bring you A to Zen. The unique second hander that is full of surprises. A buddy of mine tells me this is a staple in north Carson. One look and I understand. I call it the state's biggest garage sale and more (who doesn't love a good garage sale). The atmosphere alone is worth the visit. We found antiques, collectibles, dolls, clothes, books and even musical instruments most at reasonable prices. There's a decent size variety of vinyl records. At first glance they seem expensive, but when you consider they are still a sought after commodity, the pricing is justified. The DVD's, on the other hand, are a bit pricey. The message is more the experience than the merchandise. Enjoy a coffee, tea, espresso along with a snack and chat it up with your host, Mike. Mike's good people and one helluva guitarist/singer. Segue into the huge back room with a stage and plenty of seating to enjoy live entertainment. On Friday night they feature an open mic. Plus, other events during the week. More to come as we plan to make many visits here, now that we're aware.

This had to be the weirdest thrift store experience I have ever had. We were drawn to the shop by…read moregoogle and the zen name & signs out front. At first we thought it was closed because all of the lights were off. But the main door was unlocked and we entered. There was 3 people sitting at the table in the middle of the store - they stared us down but didn't say a word. We wondered the entire store which was primarily books, movies/dvds/VHS & furniture, with a few odds and ends. I think my definition of "gift store" is different than theirs because I didn't see much that I would categorize in that department. The odor in this store was the usual thrift store aroma, with a splash of...something very unpleasant. We saw what looked like a music venue in the back with a few guys talking really loudly from that area. After wondering the store, we started to work our way to the front when one of the gentleman practically ran to follow us out. When we looked back at him, he pulled out his key and dangled it indicating he was locking the door behind us, still not saying a single word to us. Out of probably 5 people in that store, not a single one said anything to us. If they were closed, they should have locked the door behind them - it was Saturday late morning.... I would label this more as a used book/music/movie store. I definitely won't waste my time here again. Such a weird experience!
