I probably wouldn't come back again because it didn't seem like there were a lot of items I was interested in. There were a tons of things there (furniture, china, pieces of art, all manner of knick knacks and doodads and other random things). The store was organized by seller, not by groupings of similar items, so it would be hard to find something specific, if you weren't just browsing, like I was. Also, the employee at the front counter wasn't really friendly or attentive and I didn't find any bargains. Two stars, but you should go check it out for yourself. I hope you leave with an awesome experience and convince me to go back!

Wife and I have shopped and purchased items from Elder's approximately a dozen times. Yes, their…read morefront is boarded up, but I do not blame them one bit due to the violent enablers that use an excuse to commit hideous acts against small businesses in the name of justice. Those types are despicable and have no place in a civil society. They remind me of the self righteous zealots that history has written about and they never build, only to destroy and force others to conform through terror. Yes, they can be a little pricey but it depends on what you're looking for. My opinion is most items are reasonable and I do some research before purchasing anything so I do not overpay. Wife and I are collectors of vintage and antiques so we can display beautiful items at our house. We buy to save beauty and do not intend to resale and canvas other antique stores in the county in hopes of finding to preserve items from the past. If you are into vintage/antique furniture, crystals, silver pieces, Elder's is a very good stop. We love beautiful handcrafted mahogany furniture and have purchased a couple of pieces from them that we proudly displace to admire. Of course, some TLC was applied to restore the luster of the wood but it was well worth the effort and price. I can tell most of the negative reviews are from the hateful angry sort that have the "conform or else" mentality of the crazy despondents roaming the streets like wildlings. Just ignore them and see for yourself. Oh, I am a minority and care less about loud opinionated people and their rudeness, I only care how I'm treated individually and Elder's has always been respectful and friendly towards me. Even gave us extra discounts for being repeat customers. I patronize other business that might have different political beliefs than me, but I only care how they treat me if I'm being polite and respectful to them. If they conduct themselves badly, I just won't go there again and take my business elsewhere and obviously post a negative review reflecting my DIRECT ENCOUNTER with the establishment, not based on an assumption because I judged the book by its cover. I try to give everyone the chance to prove their worthiness and I expect the same from myself and not be a hypocrite like so many others out there. Grow up people and maybe you'll induce a little happiness into your life...or not lol.

I usually buy smaller pieces here, including old photos (nerd that I am, I look through the ones that have legible names on the back and find descendants of those depicted). They offer a sizeable discount if you pay in cash. No mask requirement, but vaccines have been available for quite some time and the place is big enough to space yourself many feet from the nearest person.

Various animal-related pieces (as in taxidermy and fur, not as in ceramic Persian cats). Staff left me alone to shop the 2... 3? 4? rooms. These rooms are pretty full. Give yourself some time and consider leaving with a sitter any little kids who would touch and break things. Minus one star because I filled out the "buying" form on the website. I had some items I wanted to see whether they'd be interested in. No one contacted me. It's fine if my stuff isn't of the type or quality that goes in your store, but I'm clearing out a late family member's possessions and I took some time to upload photos share with The Brass Alligator, and even a "thanks, but no thanks" would have been nice. Not a big deal.

Worst estate sale experience I've had…read more The first day was overcrowded to the point of being uncomfortable -- way too many people packed inside with no control. The second day, they had people standing outside for over an hour with no communication or sense of urgency. Pricing was completely out of touch. Charging $1 per stem for tiny Dollar Tree florals (not even a bouquet) is honestly absurd. What really pushed this into unacceptable territory was the pricing on half-price day. I was quoted $900 for about half a car full. After checking the tags myself, it should have been closer to $400 -- or around $200 with the discount. That kind of discrepancy is not a small mistake. Between the lack of organization, long waits, and questionable pricing, this felt like a very poorly run sale at best -- and misleading at worst. I won't be back.

I was immediately hit with a wave of nostalgia so strong, I half expected my childhood self to run past me! I was in for what felt like just a little while, but it was at least over an hour and a half - and I don't even think I saw every booth! The place goes on and on, with cases and shelves and tables and more. Just when you think you've seen it all, additional treasures await. What else? Sports memorabilia, handmade crafts, books, toys, tools, home goods, decor, jewelry - you name it. It's a super fun place to browse, with something for just about everyone.

I live right around the corner in McKinley Heights and always drive/walk by this place, but it sometimes looks a little mayhem. What do I do when places look mayhem? I buy online. I started following them and one day while sitting on my plane wi-fi, I noticed the blurry shots of a gawgeous milk glass shelf, walnut sideboard and hutch. In my horrible connection, I typed "#sold". Then, I was asked if I wanted the matching piece for a little discount. There I went again - "#sold". They will send an invoice and you can pay online then pick it up on a Saturday or Sunday 12-5. Pick up can be a little hard to understand because you have to find The Unlabeled Guy (whoever that is) and find your piece. We were able to back the truck up the sidewalk to pick it up once I found The Guy and he confirmed my invoice. The inside is chaotic, with pieces of furniture everywhere. I think they list their nicest pieces online then keep them in the front room until pick up, so I'm guessing their nicer stuff is in the front. Basically everything they have is priced cheaper than any antique store or online seller, with the only exception being maybe an auction. I suggest following them on Instagram and checking it daily, with your #sold fingers ready to go. The good stuff goes quick. I bought another item just last night. IT'S SO EASY. TOO EASY. The peacock wall piece? Yeah, that was me.

The Purple Cow is my favorite because there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of rhyme or reason for what's in the shop, but the randomness makes sense once you're in there! A few of the Purple Cow's specialties include: - A huge collection of vintage postcards, kept in old library card catalog drawers. I love to sift through them and see what vacation spots used to look like. And it's fun to read the used ones...see what kinds of messages people used to send to loved ones back in the day. - Antique hardware. If you're in the market for hooks, pulls or doorknobs, this might be the place for you. They usually don't come in sets, so if you like an eclectic aesthetic, that's a perfect place to purchase items for your house. - Signs. There's a huge, neon parrot sign that I inquired about. It's not for sale, but most of the signs are. There's old street signs, signs advertising products and a random arrow that directs people to the restroom. - There's also a large bookshelf of sports memorabilia near the register. Personally, sports anything doesn't pique my interest. But my boyfriend, who's an avid baseball card collector, said that the collection was pretty interesting. On my first visit, I purchased a framed "paint by numbers" of a ship at sea for our new apartment. It cost $5 and hangs on the wall next to a framed President Garfield on our entry room wall. If that gives you any indication of what kinds of antiques I'm into, then you'll understand why I love the Purple Cow.

But I went with the BF and his Mom to Cherokee Street one day and was pretty impressed with what The Purple Cow had to offer. These antiques looked well-curated and were really interesting. I thought a couple of times that I would like to buy something from this place. That's no small feat for me. There are a few sections to this store, and it's worth weaseling and squeezing your way through all of them to see what's going on--stone lawn gizmos, the chopped off fender of an old car, Christmas lights, architectural odds & ends, tchotchkes...all kinds of stuff. Colorful, generally fun, and 'neat' in the best sense of the word.
