"Rude staff they don’t want you there, people are complaining about the member fee but the problem is people are not welcomed there. I am new to the city I found them on Google so when I went there before even saying anything the girl asked if I had an appointment and that just to look even outside you have to be a member and I arrived at 1:55 she said they close at 2pm on Google says they close at 3pm. Anyway I truly hope they are making a lot of money I WILL NEVER TREAT my customers this way. Her face was like she was upset that people are going there my 3 advices 1- don’t go there 2- don’t go there 3- in case you forget read 1 and 2 to remember"
"Im rating a one star just for the $55 to look around. I would drive 5 hours to Dead people's stuff in OKC or This old house in Fort Worth. All architecture salvage. Free to walk around. I was going to go here normally spend a substantial amounnt at these places but to charge just to walk in bah to many other places to go. Good luck!!"
"For those who havent been due to the pricey membership fee requirement, let me explain how they price stuff. I looked at a raw (unglazed) clay planter. I had one at home that I paid $35 at home depot for several months prior. Wanting another, I asked the price (so much is unmarked). A super snotty woman replied $300. First, this was not an old or historic item, but a new planter. Second its unglazed so the pot isnt as strong as a glazed and should be cheaper as it didnt have to be fired). I explained to her that I had just purchase one identical at home depot for $35. She replied that nobody sells unglazed terracotta and it was rare. Funny because I found a boatload at the local Tuesday Morning for all under $30. The attitudes are always ugly. I have been numerous times. Maybe its the heat since the staff must sweat it out in a warehouse in the Texas heat."
"Can't shop without paying $55 for membership, not good business practice to turn away customers so quickly. After looking through all these reviews & owner replies I'm not shocked at their snooty attitude. Say it's been run this way for many years just fine yet look at all these bad ratings from upset customers. I'll spend my money else where."
"We drove in from Austin and were very disappointed we could not even look around the store. You could tell the staff was tired of explaining the membership rules. I think the Board should consider changing their policy. Maybe you could have a 1 day membership at a reduced rate for folks that are only visiting town or you might also consider allowing people to look around without a membership. In the long run I bet it would increase your revenue. I don't see what you have to lose."
