Surplus Sid

"If you know what you’re looking for, you can find some really cool stuff here. However, be wary, as he is known to embellish/simply make up things in order to sell outright fake/prop antiques/surplus as authentic to unassuming customers as authentic."

"Unique collection of history. You’ll walk in feeling like you are time traveling. By far some of the most beautiful and unique clothes. Quality and some amazing finds here!"

"What a fun, unique store! I think people who comment on the character of Sid aren't really thinking about who the dude actually is. He's a unique personality, and says weird things because he thinks they're funny to say. You can tell he's not being serious. The lady working in the costume department is super sweet. We could've talked to her for hours about her life experience. A lot of people drive by this store, thinking "Hey, this place looks interesting, I should go here sometime!" - well, why don't you? I don't think I will EVER find another store quite like this one."

"Walked in and asked the guy if he was Sid. He answered, " I hope so, I'm wearing his underwear". Knew right there I was in the right place. Kitchy ain't the word, eclectic ain't either. The place has its own smell too. Bring a flashlight. The stuff is everywhere. Floor to ceiling. Aisles throughout just kinda happen. Sid's doing it his way. Buy something and you'll always remember where it came from."

"I absolutely love this place. It's a cornucopia of fascinating stuff. I go here to find new additions to my knife collection and he always has something that I set my heart on. There's loads of other stuff as well: everything from your average military surplus to wild costumes. He is also an all around friendly, helpful and interesting to talk to guy. My highest recommendation."
