I visited here on my day off from work. Me and some friends walked in hoping to find some sports memorabilia as we're all big football/basketball fans. We walked most of the isles when we found a hockey stick and an old pair of clip on roller skates i guess you would call them? An elderly lady walked over to us, very rudely told us she would and i quote "come to each of our houses and mess with our Sh*t" We weren't being rough, or even actually using them, we at the most took the hockey stick out its spot, put it back when we were finished and we were just looking at the Skates. Would NOT recommend coming here or even supporting the business. read more

Tonight I visited Dovetails & Rusty Nails while downtown for the Christmas events. When I saw the shop, I was immediately excited to go in because I genuinely love antiques and vintage items. I was with my three-year-old, who was absolutely mesmerized by the old toys and excitedly pointing things out as we went. He noticed an old fire truck with a detached metal ladder sitting beside it, picked it up briefly to show me, and asked if we could buy it. Before I could even respond, an older woman ran from behind the counter and forcefully ripped the metal ladder from my child's hand while loudly saying, "No, no, no." This was extremely inappropriate, aggressive, and uncalled for especially toward a small child. If my child had damaged something, I absolutely would have paid for it, which I stated immediately. But this was a loose metal piece from a toy we likely would have purchased if the situation had been handled with basic respect. This shop is not family-friendly at all. What should have been a fun, memorable family night was instantly ruined by the way we were treated. As this was my first time visiting Forest City, it left a very disappointing impression. I will not be returning, and I will be sharing this experience with others so families can be aware before visiting. I would not recommend supporting this business or spending a dime with them. I am extremely disappointed and had to explain to my child why this angry woman would do such a thing to him. read more

Nice store with lots of 33 1/3 rpm records, jewelry, glassware, furniture, and more. Very friendly and helpful employees showed us what we wanted. Prices seemed fair and they had an interesting old crank-up phonograph. We will stop in again next time we're in the area. read more
