Came here for a Sunday fun day filled with antique and vintage shopping with my friends. We spent…read moreabout and hour and a half exploring and could've stayed longer. Time does not exist here. This antique mall is HUGE! It's filled with everything you could possibly dream of. Like most antique shops, things are a bit on the pricey side, but there is a range of prices for a range of products with a range of quality. All sales are final. We looked through household goods, posters, toys, cards, and even cute outfits. I ended up purchasing a very cute denim romper and a big glass jar with oranges on it. You really have to hunt through rows of things to find the gems you're looking for, but you're likely to find things you'd never expect to find and fall in love with. I'd highly recommend checking this spot out.

I adore this antique/flea market! The ladies and the gentleman who work here are so friendly and…read morethe current vendors are very good. There's a great variety and you will probably be able to find your "antique poison" here. Photos, tools, ornaments, books, jewelry, toys, clothes, shoes, kitchenware and the list goes on. I have yet to go in and not find at least one thing. I would definitely suggest following them on social media simply to know about open houses or special events they are doing. I recently happened to stop in during their open house but I would have been able to plan better had I been following them. Most vendors are priced very fairly as well. Definitely a must stop for anyone.

I've found some cool treasures here, but you've got to look hard to find a bargain! Many of the vendors overprice their wares! There's several other antique shops on 301, and across Atlee on 360, so this would be a fun way to go "antiquing" and make a day of it!! You can really get lost in this space, mazes of booths and aisles of stalls full of vintage pieces. You'll find hordes of glassware, china, dishes, bar ware, collectible plates, Toby mugs, Mason jars, milk glass, carnival glass, Fiestaware, and crystal! There are also various booths carrying brass, pewter, silver and other metal items. If you're a bibliophile, you've come to the right place... shelves and shelves of new, used and classic books, magazines, postcards and periodicals. Old vinyl records, 45's, and LP's can be found at several stalls. Vintage jewelry galore and a menagerie of figurines seem to arise at every corner! Tons more... allow plenty of time to browse. And keep your phone ha day to check prices in comparison to eBay. I found this incredible mug with Shakespeare on it that I was dying to have... I checked on the web and found it for 1/2 of what they were selling it for. Check out is easy and organized, most of the sellers don't haggle much, they have standard percentages off they offer at the counter (if you ask) but oftentimes I've been told they can't come down of the price. With so many vendors, I can see why it would be hard to try to contact everyone for discounts. Many items are marked "firm". I thus firmly believe this to be an middle of the road antique shop, but worth a gander!

The large parking lot was empty and the sign obscured behind some wood shelving. The entrance had 2 chairs and a book out front of doors which were locked tight. We tried to look in and could not tell what was going on inside. Now everything online stated it should have been open but it clearly was not. There was no sign with hours or information. To my mind this was once an antiques emporium and is now an unknown entity. If this is still an operating business I highly recommend signage with hours and information for potential customers, which will not be me, unfortunately.

They have some unique signage, neat wrought iron fixtures and some funky antique furniture. You will find the gamut here, some prices are "deals and steals" and other are "what how much?" Some items are new, some are ancient so check for wear and tear. The garden and outdoor section is plentiful and there are lots of "fixer uppers" and items that can be salvaged, reclaimed & upcycled if you have the time and talent! Although I find it's hit or miss, it's always a fun stop while tracking up historic Route 1!
