Blake Addison the owner was very fast talking. He told me he could only write checks and cannot email people. He also told me patronizingly that he will only change my address once since I was in the process of moving. He never once answered my emails, and never once returned my calls to update the address. When I reached him, he told me I should "SPEAK UP!" because he couldn't hear me. I told him the way he sounded was rude and he said I should "TOUGHEN UP!" Then he said when I was getting upset that I was finally speaking louder. He also said if I am going to get mad at him why don't I pick up my furniture. If I hadn't been in such a rush before I would not have chosen him. He also said I was rude?? Because he marked down my furniture by a lot and didn't care what brand it was. He's been in the business for so many years so I am being rude just asking a question. I had my things in Durham storage and did not feeling like going to Cary, but next time I would go there instead. HIS FEELINGS FIRST. I am a middle age woman, but he treated me as if I was a child. He also gave me incorrect information and admonished me at the store for bringing things in he said he accepted. Double talk and self centered. Not a way to run a business! He had told me if I didn't give a mailing address right away, and I miss the check writing period, he insinuated I wouldn't get paid after I left all my stuff. He did give the list of items he sold, but only because other people were around. Before he told me he would not be able to do that. He acts like the victim. He did this phony conversation in front of people to act like he's such a nice guy. But, he can't handle any type of questions because he is busy. He also insulted me when I got upset, and than made it seem like it was because I was from California... You know how they are... He is one hot tempered guy and he ended the conversation by adding this offensive sounding snippet " You are a real PEACH!" (sounds like____) So when he is insensitive or judgmental or treats people differently it's okay. Otherwise take your stuff back. Travel all the way back and take your stuff back. Can't get mad when he is rude to you, because you are being rude to him. ALSO WHAT AN ACTOR! When he is rude, he's just busy! So quit asking or being sensitive. He's done all he could. I keep calling him more than once with my address just to annoy him, poor guy. He wrote it down the 4th time, so it's all good. Also he doesn't know how to price furniture. He said he sold an almost brand new velvet office chair for $35 which I recently paid $300. He told me Home Goods sells chairs apparently for that price? I've never seen that. He says he's been in the business a long time and knows what they sell for but I don't know. I have been to furniture consignment stores before and I haven't seen office chairs priced that low... I wasn't in the store but that is what he quoted me on my receipt. It sold pretty quickly. Later, he used all this as an excuse to be rude to me. I guess I started it? He is infuriating. He even threatened me that if I call him to complain about how rude he was, he will not sell my furniture. I told them that I think that is illegal to threaten me as we have contract. So just be careful if you want to deal with someone like this. It totally wasn't worth it. I mean literally it was not worth it. 17.50 for that chair. BTW- I know some more expensive pieces don't sell as well, but all my furniture is recently bought and modern. read more

I recently looked up consignment furniture stores in the Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill region. That's when I came across "Classic Treasures". I almost missed it when driving by since there are many other stores around them. It also didn't look as "nice" as some other stores I've been to in Raleigh. But once I walked in, I was blown away by the courtesy and Southern "feel" of the store. They serve you coffee and have a kid's play area! Blake, the owner, NEVER made me feel like he's trying to sell something to me. As a matter of fact: When I told him my ideas of furniture and style, he talked me out of buying a peace I initially was drawn to because of it's appealing looks. He was right: This would NOT have fit the rest of my furniture! They offer delivery services, and despite them being an "upscale" consignment furniture store, they have amazingly good deals and prices in a wide range. I signed up for a "wishlist" of items I'm looking for. Blake promised me that he'll call me if one of those items come in. I came in the store at the beginning of the month, where they discount furniture that's been there for a while. Just in time for me to do my shopping! I will certainly make Classic Treasures my first stop the next time I need furniture. read more

@ Pamela W. - Your comments against Classic Treasures are "unacceptable and irresponsible". This establishment has not broken any laws nor are they promoting offensive behavior or discriminatory actions. Your post on this topic, under the name of this business, is simply your way of advertising your agenda, maliciously, and, quite simply, is very unkind to this business and this family. Further, unkind comments such as this are what keeps people in a constant state of fear. If you live in fear, stay home. But don't persecute businesses and families like this for expressing the right to chose faith and freedom. read more

Classic Treasures is a special store in Durham. Here's a place where young folks can afford to buy second hand furniture, paintings etc. to affordably decorate their homes. And it's a great place to sell furniture that is no longer wanted. I have sold pieces there and done very well. It's so easy as they come to your home and pick up large pieces of furniture and stuff. I love to stop in and browse as the people there are so nice and helpful. Young or old, you can always find a treasure there and have fun too! read more

My favorite Furniture Consignment Store! Always something new to see, great prices, and I love the free cup of coffee. Our kids LOVE the Pirate Cove Kids Play Area and the staff is friendly and helpful - but not pushy. The classic jazz makes the atmosphere fun and relaxed. Last week I bought a beautiful candle as a gift and they gift wrapped it for free! read more

This place has my heart. I was able to find a lot of great items as a college student! Whenever I am there, the wonderful group of regular shoppers and staff in the store make it feel like a family or "club." The free coffee definitely is a plus as well! CT has an amazing selection of furniture, books, and decor broad enough to suit anyone's taste. read more

My wife dragged me here over the weekend. I am not a fan of shopping but I have to say that I was impressed by the amount of really nice furniture that they have! I still hate shopping but if you are going to look for good furniture deals, go visit Classic Treasures! read more

Loved this store. The owner is so helpful and we found numerous things that we liked. This is a stop you should make for sure.

Spot on and very family friendly. So much to look at . Have purchased several items and have never been disappointed.

The owners are fantastic and provide excellent service. Support small, local businesses over big box chain stores!
