The owner yells out "CAN I HELP YOU WITH SOMETHING!?" Which made me jump I was the only one in the disorganized store. He then continued to yell at me about not touching things. I tried to explain but he so incredibly rude and made me very uncomfortable to be alone in the store with him. Needless to say I left and beware of that place. The level of anger was not something I've experienced in a retail setting.

This is my go to place if I'm looking for something different and unique. Items do tend to sell fast so if you see something you like you should buy it right away I've made the mistake too many times of going home without my treasure and now it is someone else's treasure. They just started running auctions about two years ago and that has made it all the more fun. They have an excellent selection and you won't be disappointed with the prices. Pricing is very good considering they're selling antique furniture for the most part. I love how the store always changes and I can go one week and it looks one way and go another week and it looks totally different. The owners are so sweet too! They really love their vendors and support them and they're not shy about sharing other shops in the area either which is really cool.
