The Antique Emporium is as Brandon F. explains - vendor booths with estate sales. Old tools. Classic glassware. Ancient tableware. LPs and singles. Books, toys, vases and just anything you can think of that's old. Prices are on the items. Maybe there's some room for negotiation. [Review 15920 overall - 3135 in North Carolina - 1425 of 2021.]

The…read morething I enjoy most about this antique store, aside from its aged ambience, is that it always has a wide variety of unique, authentic, and quality items. You can find pretty good deals on some items. For these reasons, whether you are a serious antiqu-er or just looking for casual exploration of an interesting new place, I'd say that Vintage Memories has something for you! P.S. The owner is friendly, conversational, and knowledgeable about the antiques. I bought a Royal 1941 typewriter from this store last year, and he gave me good recommendations on what is required to refurbish it.

While wandering we were insulted by the owner at several different booths. She took something out of my mom's hands in order to "show her" but it was overly rough.
