If you've never been to Old Town Albuquerque, I'll give you a quick description: A shaded, Spanish-styled central square, surrounded by historic buildings, including an adobe church; Many building are filled with shops and restaurants. Most of the shops are touristy; Think "gift shop". My dad calls these "the rubber tomahawk stores"; And sadly they comprise about 80% of what you will find here. (And you will find 80% of the people in them too) Then there is the other 20%; like Old Town Antiques No rubber tomahawks here (or dreamcatchers, God forbid). Just the real deal: either colonial Spanish antiques, native Indian crafts or early American antiques. Any turquoise jewelry here is the real stuff, not the hardened resin so prevalent in the other shops (yet still sold as "turquoise jewelry"). Indian rugs aren't copies churned out by a machine. And a hand forged tool from 1872 is just what it says it is. And yes, these things may be a hundred years old, or more; And yes, they are often beautiful, interesting, unique, and always one-of-a-kind. And so you pay more than you would for a rug or bracelet or clay pot pulled from a shelf full of identical copies. But isn't that the point?

I love this place! My kids' bed frames, my new vintage work bag, some earrings, assorted ephemera…read morehas entered my life through this joint. I think the name is a little silly but otherwise all round great thrifting - casual atmosphere, not snobby, well stocked with a huge variety of finds. Mostly very reasonably priced, which is why I brought my sister here - she lives in Santa Fe, where thrifting is not for regular folks, but in ABQ it's accessible on a budget! The people who work here are kind and helpful, and there's someone on hand to help you load up, too. I've come with various family members looking for various things and had great success, including finding multiple pieces where we said to each other, "you take this home, or I will." Note: as of October 2019 they're moving to a spot on Lomas, not disappearing! TL;DR: You need a classic dresser? A cake stand? A shiny gold purse to give a three year old? At reasonable prices and made to last more than big box crap of comparable price?! This place has got you.

It was a holiday weekend and I did not see tons of sales posted here which is a bit of a bummer. This location has vintage clothing, home items, dishes, and plenty of antique pieces. This location has a vendor near the door with a large display of soaps and brand new items (I am not sure it's soap, but it is some kind of body care). This is always a bit off-putting to me when I antique because I feel like it says that this store isn't totally committed to just antiques but will allow vendors to sell flea market items. I also shouldn't be so hard on this location they are not lying about the upscale flea aspect of their store and it is that. I think the pricing is fair here and I do think you should visit this location as you walk this fabulous strip of antique stores. The top floor has some furniture sets that are worth exploring before you finalize a furniture purchase at a neighboring antique store.

The owners are a awesome married couple, That lovingly value this historical building, it's architecture, the people and, the stories behind the people and the people behind the businesses attached to this building from the past, the pictures shared personal and printed set the perfect stage for the business it now hold behind its original entry way. adding their own story to the list, the Vintage Valley Antique and collectibles shop, Keeping history of memories alive not just for themselves, but for everybody else around them near and far looking for that one thing that they remember, a comfort from their childhood of the past or just those people wanting to see things from the past that make that historical building with its new business beautiful in history. it's always a pleasure just to spend the day talking with the owners and maybe find something I truly miss from my past. I go there very often and wouldn't miss a chance to go back again and again. I always find something there that reminds me of my childhood or my grandparents that I grew up with even my old childhood neighbors. so if you're looking for a place to visit with historical history, funny stories, beautiful items, big and small including the awesome owners, that shower you with kindness, visit the Vintage Valley Antique and collectibles ,on Candelaria, and, Rio Grande you won't regret it. You just might find something yourself. Enjoy.

If you were looking for something, tell them exactly what you were looking for and how much you're willing to spend and they will find you your perfect item. They have some really beautiful pieces, including wedding dresses, vintage lace, numerous items of furniture, and everything is very well organized. I brought my young son in here. They even gave him some toys to play with while we were looking around. This is a store I am truly happy to support.

Some of the larger antique/vintage stores can be quite a mess. This place is definitely worth a stop if your out and about looking for vintage, antiques, or just odd ball stuff for conversation starters. Happy hunting!

I visited this shop today because I was interested in purchasing a bicycle. I drove a considerable…read moredistance specifically to see their selection after hearing they were a welcoming, family-owned business. Unfortunately, my experience was the exact opposite. I waited patiently while the employee (said she was the owner) finished helping another customer. I did not interrupt their conversation. When she asked if I was ready to check out, I said I had a question and simply asked where the bikes were located because I wanted to look at them. Her response was, "Whatever bikes are out is out." Since I had never been to the store before, I politely asked what she meant, trying to find out whether all the bikes were displayed in one area or if there were additional bikes elsewhere. Instead of answering my question, she became increasingly rude and dismissive. My teenage son was with me and witnessed the entire interaction. To my surprise, the employee then told us to "get out of my store," even though all we had done was ask about purchasing a bike. We were shocked by how quickly the situation escalated. I understand that retail employees can be busy, and there was another customer being helped, the owner's baby crying in the background, and the employee appeared to be in a hurry. However, none of that justifies speaking to potential customers with disrespect or asking them to leave simply for asking a reasonable question. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this business. If customer service and being treated with basic courtesy are important to you, you may want to consider shopping elsewhere. This was one of the most unwelcoming retail experiences I've had, and I will not be returning.
