What's here: this is a good place for handy people who don't mind doing a little work. It's not a convenience solution. The operating organization is the Preservation and Conservation Association, and the items for (very affordable) sale are largely historical or quite vintage. When I passed through they had light fixtures, doors, what sure seemed to be a Philco BC-221-N Vintage Radio Frequency Meter, door locks with keys, school lockers, etc etc. As another reviewer noted, the doors are all labeled with measurements and organized so you don't have to fish things out unnecessarily. Staff is super friendly and helpful, I bought a project and the staff made sure I knew what I was getting in for. There is a little museum section in the back of the store with historical items on display and they have some books for in-store use on topics like making a home more elder-friendly and dealing with vintage hardware. Community health: when we went, the doors were open for cross ventilation and half the staff were masking (note, I knocked a star off bc community spread is high right now and everyone, regardless of vaccination status, should be masking indoors).

This was a neat place to visit. Lots and lots of different building supplies, but mostly doors…read more Some unique things like fireplaces or historical pieces from buildings. But mostly doors. It's all salvaged, so you don't find anything shiny and new but you'll find things that have character and are worn down - which seems to be totally in right now! This is a great place for art students looking for inspiration or random materials, theatre companies looking for set pieces, or anyone interested in doing some random building. Prices were hard to find. Not everything had a price and I didn't want to bring every piece up to the counter to check it. There's no way of knowing whether the piece you're buying is in working order or not (e.g. electrical pieces). It's a fun place to wander around in and see what they have, but didn't have anything worth my money this time around.

Listen up people.

It's also a great place for mullet watching! If you happen to show up on the wrong day there might be a craft show which isn't too exciting, or a cattle auction (which is pretty interesting) or sometimes a straight up rodeo is going down. Just make sure you check the schedule on the website before you head down there. It's a hoop hollerin good time and I'll have a booth open there next month so come visit! One tip: Make sure to park within the fenced in area or your gas tank will get siphoned empty.

This shop just opened up in Urbana (as of June 2007); it is spawned from another Buy-Sell-Trade…read moreStore in Springfield. It's kind of a hybrid pawn shop / thrift store / collectible shop. They certainly have a lot of stuff here, and I'd suggest you check it out: tools, collectibles, some motorcycles, dolls, guitars, etc. If you want an antique cane, they have them. If you want a compound bow, you can get it for about $50. But speaking of prices, that's where things get a bit odd: some things in the store seem to me to be a bit overpriced. Some are a lot overpriced. And for a collectible shop, not everything seems to be terribly well cared for. On the day I went there, a lot of people were selling their things to the gal behind the desk (not the desk with the young kids running the registers). So you might get a few bucks for your stuff here, if you're not into selling via Craigslist or eBay. UPDATE: this joint closed faster than spit! Forget it ever existed
