I got yo admit it is a great concept, Overstock Items, Mass purchases from Locations or Semi tractor accidents, that everything is undamaged and sold cheap. They really do have brand name stuff and it is cheap, but if you have never been to a place like this, there is nothing fancy. Peruse the store and find everything from Kitchen, Garden, Electronics, Electrical, PC, Home goods etc. Great way to burn time.

Cashiers are rude and the store is filthy and products are covered in rat feces. With my recent experience and the cases of Hanta virus happening, don't expect me in this establishment. I'd rather loose $90 which was the cost of my non functioning solar umbrella. Good luck trying to get customer service at this store. Let's not forget that carts can't go out so what you buy you have to muscle out. AWFUL EXPERIENCE. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR BUSINESS! I CERTAINLY WILL NOT!

I did not have a 5 star experience today and I am so confused at the people that did. They have…read morealittle bit of everything and the prices are not that cheap. They carry alot of men's Carhardt shirts but they are not that much cheaper than other stores. The owners cater for people 60 and over.

It was my first time there & I was amazed how many things they had. Great place to pick up a few…read moreChristmas gifts! Prices are very reasonable.

Let's start off by saying: This. Place. Is. Huge!!! I mean, my friend told me "just wait to see how big it is" and let me tell you, I was BLOWN AWAY by how far back this place goes. Wow. Prices here are GREAT and there are additional sales (ex 40% off picture frames, 25% off distressed furniture, 50% off napkins and placemats, etc.) So much to look at. Plan to spend and hour plus. Randomly, found a Texas Longhorns ornament to take home with me.

Stuff was cheaper and it looks like they have everything...... well they don't have the alcohol or fresh food so not apples to apples. They also have the tourist topsail shirts cheaper than the other places on the main strip. Heaters, fans, speakers.

You never know exactly what they might have in there in several times I've been in and they might have just what I was looking for. I found a nice Weber grill there for almost $100 less than what I would've had to pay for it at a regular retail store I was very pleased with that purchase like I said I just enjoy going in there from time to time just to see what I might find.

Family owned and operated. Looks so much better every time I come in. Very organized and friendly.read more

Unfortunately, they don't have historical tours but they do have tours on foot and it was not feasible for me to do after having a surgery on my hip & leg - still healing. So I browsed the store for a long period and had the most fun with using the coin operated crystal vending machine. For two quarters you can get one to three crystals with a turn of the knob on the machine. I was lucky to get three crystals several times. You don't know how many or what kind of crystals you will get, yet it is fun, and the crystals make a great gift to give to people. I got a lot of green aventurine crystals and crystals I usually would not select like dalmation jasper & a dull moonstone. It was a steal since most crystals are $1-3 each for the sizes I received of these crystals. Alyssa was very engaging and stellar in providing me information and generating more sales effortlessly - just by answering all my questions and showing me different rings stocked inside the ring display. She was delightful, memorable, and helped me select the perfect rings to wear on my index and third finger. I got 3 rings for $24.99. Other items I purchased was: money attraction incense & oudh resin in a glass bottle for incense, unique oracle cards with funny yes & no answers, stickers, a pamphlet detailing all the places where television series and movies were filmed at in Wilmington, North Carolina, and post cards. The postcards were only $1. I should have bought a book there that I thought I already had. The book is The Ghosts of Old Wilmington by John Hirchak. The book is signed by the writer. I had two ghost books about Wilmington but it was not that one. Yet it is another reason I should go back to The Black Cat Shoppe. I plan to come back here and go on their tours later in the future. This is a place I plan to visit again the next time I come to Wilmington, North Carolina.

The only place that comes close to Alchemy & Aura is Crystal Connection (no longer exists) and AromaG Botanica in Nashville, Tennessee. Ezra assisted me in finding items I needed and was very patient and thoughtful in answering all my questions despite being very busy assisting others. I loved how they created a sense of arrival in the store with two trees at the entrance area with a crystal chandelier hanging between them, eye catching displays, and a large dining table with chairs. The tarot & oracle deck selection was massive. Some of the decks were not available for sale online. I purchased three large Oracle decks on clearance for $12-$15 each, a dragon incense holder, oudh incense, nag champa cone incense, and got two books from exchange chest there. There were many items I wanted to purchase yet considered buying them later.

I loved the openness of the space and the convenient parking directly in front of the shop. It's easy to get comfortable in here. And I was pleasantly surprised to find that some cards have testers.
