Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed people watching others wearing their Nantucket reds and sweaters thrown over their shoulders but that look is so not me. I was able to pick up a few shirts, a sticker, Nantucket themed charms for my son's Crocs, and a few bracelets as gifts. I think I might come back today to pick up a ring I liked and a few more bracelets. The staff were super friendly and helpful as well!

The sales associate just said oh yeah it's over there. I didn't know what she was directing me too, I asked her she said there. I said I still don't see it, could you help me, no one else in the shop. She shows me a different jacket and when I ask if the one in the window is the only one and can I try it, she said that she would ask her boss when the boss got off the phone. The boss was standing right by the jacket in the window, which I easily could've taken down myself but now couldn't since we had to wait for the bosses permission. The boss chatted for at least five minutes while we were there and I just said let's go, I don't want to wait until she finishes her conversation. My dad is elderly and frail and it's not easy for him to walk or wait around. Thanks guys!

No negatives whatsoever.

To be clear: I have never ordered from Murray's, but I did order three authentic Indian patch…read moremadras shirts this spring from their associated store, Castaway Nantucket. I love the shirts, but they are extremely oversized. I ordered xl for the first two and one of them is in reality an xxxl, while the other one is in reality a xxl. So, for the third shirt, i ordered a large, and it fits perfectly--and I'm getting the first two taken up at my seamstress. The shirts are all gorgeous, with a very durable, hefty fabric, but quite expensive, like all of Castaway's products. I doubt that the inconsistency in sizing is uniform throughout Castaway clothing, but probably confined to their madras clothing, which is made in Chennai (formerly Madras), India, as I have found wild inconsistency in madras shirts from another retailer. I cannot say that for sure, however, as I have no other items from Castaway. Last note: each of my shirts are long-sleeved, and the fabric is so thick they are too hot to wear on a very hot day.

They also sell: old books, beach chairs, furniture, limited jewelry, coolers, kitchen items from silverware to coffee makers and everything in between. Overall, a Nantucket gem. PS: I turned my back at the register to try on some earrings and answer a question some ladies had about my dress and some tourist took a broach right out of my pile (it was very clear that it was taken). They were sneaky and not the vibe. Don't be that person.

It is full of good, donated product, and has the widest selection of DIFFERENT things that I've seen in a thrift shop. The bottom floor is basically an unfinished basement, with rooms dedicated to certain items, especially furniture. One room was selling used books, and it has as many books as some small libraries. They had local product as well, and my wife picked up a hardly used scarf. The hallways are very tight, allowing only two people to pass when going sideways, and the staircases are one person-at-a-time. No chance for wheelchairs or strollers. Because it is so hard to move around, it was appreciated that each floor had their own cashier. I didn't see any long lines to checkout, and there were volunteers everyone, keeping things running. The prices do seem very knowledgable...you are not going to find any crazy bargains because the 'purchasing' department didn't understand the worth of some products. It is located in a very touristy area, so bargaining attempts by non-residents must happen once in a while. There was a funny sign stating that bargaining was insisted, the pricer would agree to give the discount but first increase the price by the same amount. Hopefully, everybody gets the joke.
