Does business as "State Street Antiques", this is decidedly a junk shop. Think "Sanford and Son" or possibly a spinoff of "Hoarders". The insides are pretty cluttered - - it is physically hard to get around -- and the organization is pretty random. Also, they smoke inside and the place reeks.
That said, if you're on the dumpster-diver end of the used treasure hunt, let me tell you there is treasure to be found here. There's so much random stuff I defy you to fail to find something at least interesting. Furnishings on the low end tend to come and go fairly quickly, but you can bargain on anything in this store (the owners are friendly, just hang in there as they tend to split their attention nine ways), and the price should end up being right for you. The "collectibles" are mostly not so much, but in the mix and match category, there's lots of pieces for projects here and it veers into the picker territory (old advertising signs, inscrutable antique objects, etc.) so it's worth at least a familiarization stop or if you're a serious junktique hunter.
Go in daylight, though. read more
