I loved that most items were out in the open for touching and exploring, with fun low-price trays and bins mixed in with tagged treasures. The staff (two wonderful women) were so kind and engaging - we had a fun conversation about the shop. Unfortunately, the ringing-up process was frustrating and felt chaotic. Purchases were split by dealer, but without a clear tally or saved tags, double-checking was nearly impossible (tags got mixed with others from earlier sales). It left me unsure if the final total was accurate - $95 or $115 makes a difference! I wish there was a better system for transparency. I adore the nostalgic, hands-on feel here and the amazing inventory, but the checkout experience might keep me from returning soon. They also put all of my pieces ($111 worth of jewelry) into one organza bag- nothing was protected. Still recommending for anyone who loves digging through real antiques!

I found a bunch of hilarious socks but were reasonably priced. I was laughing out loud too much. I hope I didn't bother the other customers. I picked out a pair of socks that will match with each family member that I have to buy Christmas gifts for. I am a teacher and was given a 10% educator discount even though I didn't have my school ID with me. I love this customer service! I highly recommend Gather and Collect!

Perfect for milestone birthdays, holiday white elephant gifts, etc. my only issue with the shop is the resale shop within a shop towards the back of the store. A few rooms filled with a hodge podge of items all overpriced. I went yesterday and found a Target Universal Thread button up for $14. That same shirt was $16.99 brand new and selling for $4.99 at Goodwill. It is t like the used clothing is curated to justify the pricing. It's all low end brands and most of the items are heavily used. Granted I am a knowledgeable thrifter but it was crazy to see how heavily used and overpriced the items were. Even Treasure House a few shops down has better prices.

Went shopping there today and was swindled out of $10 by the woman at the counter! Picked up a…read moresweet vintage sweater that was marked $10, put it up at the counter with some other things (so I could shop hands free) and kept wandering for a bit. After perusing a while longer I went to check out. Was told the total was $31 and some change..... I was so confused and asked how (the real price should have been $21 something) so she goes on to say "oh yeah the sweater is $20, that's $10 and half off and those are so and so and so and so". Well, that's odd - I thought.... But I wanted the sweater so I just paid to get out of there. (Paid cash like an idiot and didn't get a receipt ) Got to my car to check the price tag on the sweater and what do ya know?? She took it every other price tag was still intact on every other item I purchased (as I know some antique stores save the tags for the separate vendors to keep track) so now it's double Hinky!! I'm bummed I didn't go back in and ask to see the tag but what can I do now. Oh well, live and learn. Hang onto your items if you shop here otherwise you're liable to fall prey to the age old switcharoo!

The buyer for this shop knows her stuff and the display genius is equally brilliant but even with the affordable and glorious offerings, if the staff weren't great, I'd have no interest. The staff here are some kind of wonderful. They are so helpful and so down to earth. I can honestly say that I've never encountered a fashion assistant/accessory expert who was less than stellar in this shop.

The selection is fantastic, but the customer service is what really stood out to me. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend Circa Vintage Gallery to anyone looking for unique antiques, gifts, or just a great place to browse!
