We have been…read moreable to complete so many book series thanks to this store (my Star Trek book collection is ever-expanding, as is our Warhammer collection), and during our last trip ten days ago we netted eleven books for only $41. They even have a nifty manga section now. They accept paperback books for trade as well, and if you are trying to complete/continue a series, want certain books/authors, etc., the owner will take your name and give you a call if it isn't on the shelf. The shelving system is a tad unorthodox, but it offers you the opportunity to see even more book choices, and that is always a good thing. Go! Browse! Get lost in the bookshelves!

The colorful exterior should be enough to draw you into this establishment but if pink and green turns you off like 1999, you'll have to give it a pass and go inside anyway. Inside, they have an exquisite selection of dishes available for purchase but look highly breakable so those with children should proceed carefully. If you go left you'll get to see what Tom's is most famous for, the coffee! You can select the coffee yourself through the plastic canisters or select a bag at the top if you can't find your flavor or are in a hurry. Some unique coffee flavors that they carry here are coffee cake and snicker doodle! I have yet to find those flavors anywhere else! Besides coffee, you are able to buy a variety of sauces from some of the local restaurants in the area. Not sure what they taste like? No worries! You are able to sample the sauces free of charge to determine which one suits your fancy. They also have a good variety of fudge, candy, and salsa available as well as a whole other section of the store dedicated to random household decorative items, "gifts" is what it probably should be called. In short, Toms is an excellent little shop in Binghamton that is a great source for any local or visitor to pick up some great coffee...or if you want some free sauce sampling.

Friendly and courteous. Even when it was cozy in the aisle! Then you do the Tom shuffle!read more

It's worth a stop and look even if you are not immediately in the market for furniture, lamps, art and accessories. They have everything displayed so well and it's fun to walk around.

A really nice, large multi-vendor antique/flea market with lots of vintage finds. There is…read moresomething for everyone, including tools, toys, jewelry, home goods, rugs, art, advertising, lighters/tobacciana, even electronics. Little kids might be a bit bored but unlike many of these types of stores where it's a lot of old clothes and books, I found EOAC (may I be the first to shorten the store name to 'ee-oh ack'?) to be very diverse and was not bored at all while the rest of my family looked around. Prices can be hit or miss, and the sellers are not around in their individual 'booths' so there's no opportunity to negotiate, but given that this is a retail store, the prices were definitely not outrageous. Pro Tips: -We were there around closing time and they do shut down promptly at that time- lights off, doors locked. Make sure you buy whatever you're looking at before then. -There's a good amount of on-street parking along the side of the store, particularly the diagonal spots right around the corner, if you can snag one -The two-block area of Owego around the store is really perfect for strolling/shopping/hanging out. -The downstairs part is very clean and well organized, and not super-crowded with stuff. The upstairs is a little funkier, especially the side and back rooms (which look like they may have originally been employee break or stock rooms). Don't make the mistake of not at least taking a peek upstairs and seeing if there's anything you like. The only drawback I see is the second floor is not accessible; no ramp or elevator that I saw, only stairs (remember this was built as a department store in the 1950's). The first floor does seem wheelchair accessible though. So far we've been here twice and would stop by again if nearby. If you are a die-hard antique/collectible person, this store could be worth making into a destination all it's own.

Wide selection of everything. But a lot of digging to find the treasures in a lot of spots. I don't…read moreknow if there are multiple vendors- it seems like maybe. Several stalls/areas packed to the ceiling and unable to look/purchase. Poor lighting in most of the places too. The second warehouse space seemed even more chaotic (the one to the right as you're facing them from the parking area). Lots of outdoor equipment/parts between the two and in the second warehouse too. It all depends on what you're looking for. The heavy heavy cigarette smoke within everything inside became pretty stifling as I walked through- esp the second one. A couple of open doors on the front and side does not help, nor did a few fans. I had to get home and shower and wash everything and even then I could still smell it. I do not recommend if you're an asthmatic.

It's jam packed with all sorts of neat, unique items that you don't find at the other big box stores. Nearly all of the inventory has educational value with a heavy concentration on free form play. My niece is exceptionally gifted and we struggle to find gifts for her that actually stimulate her. She's blessed with a mind that visualizes solutions quickly. I picked up several brain teasers I've never seen elsewhere, some card games that seemed as if they may challenge her and a hanging seat for my son that I've looked for elsewhere without success. The woman at the counter was incredibly knowledgeable about her products and took the time to go get a former demo item so I could be certain I was purchasing something I'd enjoy. I live several hours away from this store, but plan to make another trip down soon for birthday and holiday gifts. I wish she was closer to my house, but then again I'd spend a fortune at her store. This little trip cost me $250, but I have no guilt because they seem to be unique, well made toys with a heavy emphasis on educational components! I'll be back... With more money and men to carry out my bags!
