This business is the cutest, well arranged, stocked full of fun items for your home or for gifts for someone you love. Inventory is home decor, some furniture in the upstairs loft, Italian gourmet pastas and bottle goods, kitchen ware, greeting cards, candles, ceramics, soaps , lotions, etc... Their Facebook and Instagram pages have quick videos of the sales floor. There's enough to look at to keep you entertained for an hour. If you seek a special gift for a girl friend this place will have something perfect. I bought two books about flowers. Nicest people own and operate.

A couple of parking places in front, and more parking at the rear of the building. My first impression upon walking in to the space was WOW! It's very beautiful and grand. Lovely space, very well decorated and merchandised. Love the vibes for sure. There are two stories, and the top floor is all home decor/furniture. The bottom floor is gifts, gourmet foods, personal items, and MORE! Foremost, this is a GREAT spot to buy someone a unique gift. They have an extensive selection of pastas from Italy and gourmet foods - you could make a nice basket... There is a lovely baby section with cute baby clothes and toys, etc. I loved the selection of candles/lotions/body products as well. The employee was super kind and helpful - had a nice chat. Can't wait to come on back!!

i came here on a whim. i'm from nevada. i saw nevada section that had a book with the UNR mackay…read morestatue, i took a picture with the book. the man behind the counter told me that "can i help you find anything" i said "no, im just looking" he said "this isn't a library the books, aren't to be played with" immediately put a bad taste in my mouth. i was taking a photo with the book, i was very interested in buying books but i immediately left. when i first came in i said "i could spend all day inside" and he had a bad attitude. i have never had a bad experience at a used book store. whatever you do don't come here. go to the library because at least they will give you better service then the one i had here. i'm going to address the remarks the owner made. it seems you barley remember me as a customer because when you said "When you first came in, I greeted you in a friendly manner welcoming you to the store" you never greeted us when we came in. we were only asked what we were looking for after i had been in the store for 20 minutes. bad customer service. if you genuinely wanted us to buy something you would be attentive and greeting every customer upon entering. "I perceived this as you playing with my books for entertainment or social media purposes, as I see far too often in my shop." so you're just assuming i wouldnt buy anything??? like you said i was bouncing around excited. i hadn't even seen all there was to see! you assumed i wasn't going to buy anything based off the fact that i wasn't looking at everything??? " Unfortunately, when I see someone taking selfies with books in my shop, the vast majority of the time they do not buy anything, now or ever." it wasn't a selfie... i was taking a picture with the back because i went to UNR and graduated there. when i went to half price books and they had a book from traner middle school no one came up to me to pressure me into purchasing something. "Some books only get a little more oil from the fingers, or slightly more thumbed pages. Others get ruined as they get dropped or crammed carelessly onto the shelf" notice how when you were disrespectful i didn't cram it back on the shelf i put it nicely back on the shelf but you don't want to include that in your response. unfortunately you don't understand the risks with running a bookstore because if you did you'd realized that books get handled and touched. if you're so worried put it behind a glass case so they don't get grabbed... you can't police every person who touches your books. i DID have a desire to purchase from your used bookstore however your attitude turned me away along with multiple other customers who wrote a review just like mine. "Please come with a genuine intention, respecting the books I have worked so hard on and invested so much in to provide them for you to browse" again with the assuming i won't buy anything that is disrespectful. i buy books from all types of stores. i just went to have price books and the money could've spent at your establishment went to someone else. i had intentions of buying from you but genuinely your rude attitude and your rotten response to my review really makes me never want to recommend this business to anyone. you profiled us is what you did. you used personal characteristics i had such as " Unfortunately, when I see someone taking selfies with books in my shop, the vast majority of the time they do not buy anything, now or ever", which you used to predict our behavior. next time put a sign saying if you're not going to buy anything don't come in! anyone looking to buy books in auburn please drive literally anywhere else! if i had known you conduct buisness i would've never step foot inside. support business who support you. some suggestions: grass root books, reno nv 1hr 40mins thistle & nightshade, reno nv 1hr 32mins half price books, citrus heights ca 31mins time tested books, sac ca 45 mins underground books sac, ca 2hrs 54mins

Even if you're not in the market for furniture, the home decor and knickknacks are worth checking out. Butter trays, manual juicers, cutting boards, charcuterie boards, serving utensils, tablecloths, and art prints are just some of the items they have. Pricing is comparable to the red dot big box which is down the street. The folks working here, are downright friendly and knowledgeable, not at all pushy or imposing.

Owners are such kind people. Loving souls helped me out so much and were patient with me so much. I was a kid at a candy store with all the amber I saw. Prices are good priced.

Was able to learn from Amber of where they came from which this store has many from Poland where the owners are originally from. Was able to see and touch the Amber and jewelry I wanted without feeling I should purchase. I did buy 2 but I will be coming back for more.

Can I just tell you how much I loved this store??…read more I walked in and saw two smiling faces! A man and a woman, who were both welcoming, chit chatting away and laughing... I love seeing that! Since it was a day of shopping for me, let's see what I can find!! I have two events that I am shopping for, and when I walked in here, I noticed they have cowgirl hats! I need one of those, but so does my BESTIE who is going to be coming up to Auburn with me next Saturday! These hats are soooo darling!!! All colors, sizes, and some with designs on the front. All the hats i came across were also really good prices, too! Towards the back of their store, they have purses (I was so focused, I only saw purses, lol)!!!! Some were really unique... I wanted the spider purse, but I was remaining focused today! I found the perfect cream colored purse to go with the outfit I bought for my event for next weekend. They had some turquoise jewelery... I'm in the market for a turquoise ring, but I didn't find one for the finger I wanted it for. There are so many rings to look at her, not to mention the gorgeous necklaces that I need to buy next weekend!! I decided I was going to come back with my BESTIE so her and I can check out the hats together. We are super excited for our upcoming events and I think The Silver Store is the perfect place for us!!! Thank you so much, Mimi, for the warm welcome and radiant smile!!! See you soon!!
