If you in the market for antiques, vintage items, collectables, need a special gift, or just want…read moreto shop while in Franklin, then you need to stop into Bryant's Antique Mall. Bryant's is an expansive 3-story antique mall spanning over 20,000 square feet. There are 55 individual vendors here, so I recommend looking around at every exhibit first before making your decision to buy, because you might find related items in other vendor exhibits. Items that sparked my interest were the variety of carpenter tools, axes, extended drill bits, table mount meat grinders, and bowie knives available. They have some really nice furniture, and wooden Indian sculptures here; old-time scales, a ton of street signs and other signage, toys, vintage lamps, animal skins, taxidermy, and so much more. Out of all the shopping we had time for while in Franklin, we spent most of our time here. We were in a bit of a rush because we were on a schedule to visit Cherokee NC then Gatlinburg TN in the same day. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They have restrooms available but for some reason they were closed to the public the day we were there, so we had to backtrack to find a restroom elsewhere. All-in-all, I recommend stopping in if you are in the area. There is a lot to see here and will keep you occupied for a while.

I was recommended to take my nice clothing to Sassys Consignment in Sylva and after having a…read moreterrible experience at Victoria's closet in Cashiers I decided to take a chance. I called and set up an appointment and showed up with my items. I thought everything was going well until it appeared that the lady was not interested in any of my clothing. I had two bags of very nice dresses some with tags on them from JCPenneys and Dress Barn. From the very beginning it started off with they don't take wrinkled clothes yet all my dresses were nicely placed in the bags folded in half, then it was we need the clothes to be in a bin, then we aren't taking size 10's and at this point I was feeling the same affect that I felt as I did at Victoria's closet with Linda where I literally stormed out of the their store because she treated my clothes/shoes like they were garbage. But with Victoria's closet she didn't care that the clothes were in a bag, didn't care about the size or it they were not pressed. It was we don't accept clothes from JC Penney's or Dress Barn, finding a tiny spot on a brand new pair of shoes that were never worn and made me feel worthless. I explained that I worked for the Federal Government in Washington DC and after retiring I am trying to find a place to give my clothing too not asking for any money and both stores told me they couldn't accept them. I had no intention of writing this review until I was talking to several women that I know and they mentioned they take their items to Sassy's in Sylva and Victoria's closet in Cashiers and they were shocked to hear about the experience that I had. They told me that they take their items in bags, they don't inspect them or check to see if they are pressed and drop them off with no problem(s). When I left Sassy's I had the same feeling that I did when I left Victoria's closet in Cashiers...belittled making me feel like my clothes were not worth anything. My clothes were extremely nice and I didn't want any money for them at all. I've never lived in a small town like Sylva, Cullowhee or other areas around here and have never experienced this terrible treatment as I did at these two Consignments stores. Most stores would be more than happy to accept them as I know there are women that would gladly enjoy these clothes. I have decided that I will take my nice gently used clothing which I have quite a bit of to a thrift store or a place for battered women in VA where I lived for many years and I will not receive the terrible treatment as I did at Victoria's closet and Sassy's consignment!

I have some mixed feelings about this spot. My first visit I…read moredid find some cute clothes but I overpaid for those used items. I did not find anything under $10.95- and I was picking out some pretty basic shirts for that price. As far as I know they do not do the color coded percentage off that most stores do. I did try to consign a few items but it was all denied due to wear- as in Jessica Simpson distressed boyfriend jeans were too worn. I guess if you're looking for a $300 coach bag and want to pay $150, then this could be your spot. My money could go further at other consignments in the area so I won't go out of my way to go back.

When things don't move they are priced way too high. Maybe try a bag sale on the clothing and move it out, reduce the couches and furniture to 25.00 and get them out. The back supply room has cans of spray paint for 5.00, which is the price for brand new at the store. I think if you try to reduce and move out the merchandise and give the store a deep clean you will make more money in the long run.

There's a small section of rock and roll memorabilia which is really cool but nothing signed by the artist. There is also a small selection of vinyls. In the back, they have a nice jukebox for sale and a beautiful pendulum wall clock. If you are looking for Player piano reels they have a milk crate full of them in the back left of the store. There's not a lot of vintage clothes here but they do have some and if you're looking jewelry they do have a small selection as well. Prices are reasonable and sellers were offering OBO discounts on items if we were interested in making a purchase. All-n-all, great spot to shop if you're spending the day and Bryson City.
