"This place is amazing! You never know what hidden gem you'll find, and they have everything under the sun for really good prices. They are locally owned and are helping us all out by embodying and demonstrating the principals of recycling and repurposing. Do not miss a chance to visit and make sure you have a couple of hours to spend!"

"I LOVE this place! I continue to find unique furnishings, household goods, tools, and much more at reasonable prices. The owners are a pleasure to deal with. They are fair and most importantly straightforward. If you see something you want, you better grab it because it will lkely be gone pretty fast."

"I would like to start with the positive. There is an older woman who works here that is an absolute sweetheart. She is kind, helpful, and courteous. I am not sure her name, but it is always a pleasure to see her. On the other hand, speaking with 'the wife and part owner' as she referred to her title was a dreadful experience. On two separate occasions, she has been anything but courteous and downright disrespectful. The first time was when I found a jersey I liked. I noted that it was higher than the rest. I asked if she would go down, as it was 5 times higher than the others, and she stated there 'Was no way.' I asked if there was a reason, and was told it was 'signed' by the player. I stated that it did not look like his signature, but she denied it stating the price would be fixed. (The images of the jersey and the players signature have been included in this review.) On the next occasion I went in and found a board that I wanted to get for myself and students. It sated the price was $20, I didn't think it was a bad deal. The older woman helped me to see if it worked, and it was discovered that 3 or the 4 florescent bulbs were broke. I asked if they would go down as a result. She went back to talk to the gentleman owner who said he would go down to $15, and I came back with $10 due to not knowing how much the bulbs would cost. She said that he would not go lower than $15. I said okay and that I would like to go research to check out the cost of replacing the 3 bulbs and would be back if they weren't too expensive. Discovering they would be around $8/bulb, I went back in to see if they would take $13 due to the cost of repair. Going back in, the sweet/helpful older woman was not present, instead the 'Owner/Wife' was. I stated I had just come in to look at the board and found out the cost of repair. I asked if she could ask the owner if he would take $13 instead of $15. She didn't even let me finish my full sentence before she stated it would be $20. I was a bit confused as I had just left not 10 minutes prior to do the research and it was $15 due to the broken lights. After I brought this up, she stated it would stay $20. I asked to speak with the owner who stated he would take $15, and that is when she brought up (quite rudely), that "It wouldn't matter if I spoke to him because I am the owner, and his wife, and it wouldn't change the price." At that notion, I left. I understand having prices and making sure to gain a profit in order to keep a business running, however, as someone who has been in retail and customer service, there is a lot to be learned with how to handle your business, and having the knowledge base to uphold a facility stature."

"This was one of the most different shopping trips I've had this year. I bought a purple trunk. There's a whole bunch of stuff to sift through, but you'll find something you like. It's also a great place to fill out a house or an apartment. You can get used furniture to rugs and dishes to TVs, even a fridge or a washer. Most prices appear to be negotiable. Keep an open mind!"

"Love this place!! I am a frequent customer! I don’t need anything but I always find something to buy! I highly recommend for anyone looking for great deals on furniture, household items, tools etc! I also bought my new rod & reel from them! Great selection of fishing gear! You never know what you’ll find!"
