Mill Creek was one of my favorites, where I never left without spending a couple hundred dollars. We were politely greeted by some new faces, however about two booths into it we started noticing there weren't too many booths with actual antiques. A lot of "themed" booths with new items. I found a NEW , currently popular game for sale. When I went to check out, I asked "Has this place sold in the past 5 years?" They replied, "yes it has why?" I said " That's to bad, it's discouraging that there aren't many antiques!" The individual replied, "TIMES CHANGE!" If you are looking for ANTIQUES, this is NOT where you go to shop!

She helped me grab a petticoat from the wall and showed me to their little dressing room even though it was close to closing! Most places would be annoyed but she was extremely patient and sweet with me. While I was shopping around there were some loud people messing around and it sounded like they dropped something. If you go into an antique store, please be respectful and mindful that you're surrounded by old and valuable items, most importantly, items that don't belong to you. This may be where some people are getting a "rude attitude" because I'm Mexican, and didn't sense any of the racism or rudeness that people talk about in these reviews. I also try to be very respectful when entering a store of any kind. Expect the same treatment and attitude that you give out.

Buyer Beware We…read morevisited a vendor toward the back of this antique store and spent quite a bit of time digging through records. I was genuinely excited to find an album by The Ventures until we got home. When we opened the sleeve, it turned out to be a completely different record. We called the store the next day to explain what happened. The first employee told us this issue happens "often," which was already concerning. Then a second person (Terri) got on the line, and after we explained the situation again, we were told this is something we should have checked, immediately shifting the blame onto the customer. They refused a refund and instead offered store credit, but only for that same vendor. We live in the southwest, and the cost of gas and time to return simply is not worth it, especially for a vendor we will not purchase from again. So, they can keep the money. Lesson learned: apparently, customers are expected to double check merchandise because the vendors or staff will not. If you shop here, inspect everything carefully at the counter before paying. We will not be returning. Receipt information; CASHIER: ADMIN DATE: 05-02-2026 TID: 82221 TIME: 02:50 pm 629 - 1 @ $15.00 each VENTURES LP Update (May 4, 2026) My email reply to Terri: Hi Terri, Thank you for your response, but I disagree with how this situation has been handled. Your explanation focuses on reasons why this may have happened rather than solutions or accountability. Verifying merchandise, especially in a resale environment where items can be incomplete or tampered with, should be a basic part of the sales process. I visit many antique stores, including very busy ones, where staff still take the time to quickly open and verify items at checkout. In this case, there were multiple staff members present, no line, and ample opportunity to confirm the contents of the album. A simple check would have taken seconds and prevented this entire issue. To be clear, this is not about the money, as the item was only $15. The issue is the principle of the situation. When a customer calls to report that they were effectively sold the wrong item, a more appropriate response would have been an apology and a discussion on how situations like this can be prevented in the future, rather than placing the blame on the customer. Citing store policy and system limitations does not address the core problem: an incomplete or incorrect item was sold. Policies are meant to guide fair business practices, not to avoid accountability when something goes wrong. Suggesting that a third party may have tampered with the item only reinforces the need for staff to verify products at the point of sale. While I understand the challenges of managing a large multi dealer space, those operational complexities should not be passed on to customers. I would also strongly encourage reviewing your in store camera footage, as it may help clarify what occurred and prevent similar situations in the future. The review was intended to help future customers by encouraging them to check their items before leaving, so they do not end up in a similar situation and lose money. Thank you.

The name is fitting, as most of the furnishings do not signify a specific decade. That's what makes this shopping experience stand out among the many antique stores in Bakersfield. You will find pieces that easily fit into just about any home, without drawing to much attention to themselves as individual pieces but rather sublimated into a warm, elegant aesthetic (unless you go TOO farmhouse-- then your home just looks like a Hobby Lobby). You will also find toys, books, kitchenware, collectibles, modern decor, homemade crafts, and plenty of surprises if you have time to peer into each vendor's booth. This area of Bakersfield is home to lots of vintage shops-- you could park your car and make a day of it!

And proceeded to completely bash our parenting because we decided not to purchase a table I guess. Which we were probably going to go back and get but will absolutely not be doing that anymore.
