COMPENDIUM is a hip new clothing boutique that has opened in staid Swarthmore and it's about time!…read more What drew me in today, 4 days before "Small Business Saturday" was the sandwich board sign outside stating they had " American made gifts under $25". Ecstatic and energized was I traversing the store seeing locally designed and hand made items and additional handmade items from across the United States. Everything here is American made. Everything I saw there was pretty and of high quality. Amazingly,I left there with a still heavy wallet even after purchasing 4 Christmas gifts at surprisingly reasonable prices. Kudos to the owners for taking a leap of faith in opening something contemporary and hip in this usually conservatively dressed part of the Philadelphia burbs. Shaking things up !!

When asking for a price check on an item I was told a really good price so I asked if I could buy a few more of the same item but was told No. Lol. Really? Aren't you wanting to see your goods?

Can get very crowded and they only have 2 or max 3 gals running the store. Be prepared to wait for a fitting room (they are locked) and wait to check out. Not my choice - but for middle-school grade clothing it's fine. I can not believe that "grown-ass" women wear this stuff. Oh - and there are no public rest rooms so be prepared to sneak into Panera or Pei Wei nearby.

I was searching for a place to get rid of a chain I had unpacked, that was from an ex. Anyway, I…read morestarted search for places and read reviews. When I saw 2 specific reviews I was like okaaay, I'm going to check them out. Gary is awesome and God fearing. He is honest and my husband and I got share who we are in the Lord. When I say this man is very good to deal know that he has the Lord in his life and therefore he operates with integrity. I hope you take a moment to read some of the reviews because as they in each review "He will not CHEAT YOU" nor will allow you to be taken advantage of. To God be the glory, we were meant to go there and nowhere else. God made some other things happen in that shop today. And I'm telling when I unpack more stuff that's straight where I'm going back to and referring everyone and anyone I know wanting to cash in their scrap gold. Gary is absolutely an awesome and kind person and honest. Which is rare in these time. May God continue to bless this man his life, his business and his family in the mighty name of Jesus Christ
