First time Yelp reviewer here! Deserves a few minutes of my time…read more.. I was at Buyers Fair with some family members recently. A cute, pink cami caught my attention. My sister-in-law said, "why don't your bargain with them?" I know that people do this kind of thing all the time but I have never tried it, so I thought... why not?! I asked the very friendly clerk if she would take the price I was offering to pay (only a few dollars less). She needed to check with her manager. After doing so, the manager actually yelled across the room (with zero tact), "why would I do that? I sell 50 of these a week?!" His tone was dripping with condescension... completely unnecessary. His goal was clearly to embarrass me. I really felt the situation could have been handled in a much more civilized manner. The only person he successfully embarrassed was his poor store clerk. "F" for customer service Mr. Manager.

My husband's parents live in Vermillion, we live in Chicago. We have gone to Buyers Fair time and…read moreagain when we are in town, and always seem to find what we are looking for. Great place for gifts, for summer clothes, shoes, and other boating supplies. The staff is always friendly, and we are happy to support an alternative to Target or K-Mart in the area. We haven't found their prices outrageous at all, but yes they do sell higher end brands, so they are not always really cheap. Great place.

Gather round. Yelpers. Let me tell you about my new favorite place, Erie & Anchor, a place I never…read moreknew I needed. I have boated in Vermilion my entire life. Living in Cleveland, I had certainly noticed the superfluous amount of "coastal" nautical lifestyle brands flush with so much of the same goods. When I first discovered Erie & Anchor, a lightbulb went off. Vermilion was always missing an AUTHENTIC nautical brand unique to Vermilion's specific identity (NOT Cleveland's). Located on the corner of Main Street in downtown Vermilion, the shop is bright, open, and filled with gorgeous items. A brief but not comprehensive list of what you can find inside: men's clothing; women's clothing; baby clothing; local inspired art; keychains; soaps; bags; tumblers; jewelry; caps and more. If you're a boater or sailor, you'll love the practical gear like windbreakers or light, warm pullovers for evening use. The goods are changing almost weekly with beautiful new items and they house a diverse line of sizes that fit ALL body types. Just check the tags and you'll see my favorite brand, Comfort Colors, which is truly inclusive. Erie & Anchor is the bright spot of downtown Vermilion and the AUTHENTIC nautical brand that captures the spirit of Vermilion in a way others can't. This is my new favorite business of 2020.

Best place to grab all nautical and local gift items for everyone in the family! Loved driving to…read moreVermilion and parking out front of the store and walking around town. Erie & Anchor has lots of different items to pick from - I purchased a cute leather purse along with a long sleeve shirt! Everything was well priced and nothing but quality in the store. Their collection is always rotating, so be sure to stop in a shop local!

Whoever the lady was, that was behind the counter today, she was RUDE and I never felt more…read moreembarrassed as what I did today, when she finally interacted with me! I asked a simple question about what was in a box and she said it was an antique hanging lamp. I asked if it was a wired lamp or a plug in the wall type...SHE WAS RUDE AS HELL...she said, "The key word was antique"...I NEVER did get a straight answer out of her! I was quite embarrassed, since there were other people in the shop while I was there. VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE-I'm sorry, but not everyone knows the "ins & outs" of "antique". I would think that some antique lamps have both plug in cords AND wires that get "hard wired". It's really sad that she didn't answer me, as I was prepared to spend some cash, since it was my first time to Vermilion's quaint little downtown! I WILL NEVER GO BACK!!!

They had amazing industrial and rustic themed type of stuff which was interesting. I have been thinking about Edison bulbs for my house and after coming into this place I really liked the idea of having a mason jar light fixture! This place gave me so many ideas and what made it even better was they had all the gadgets to make my dreams come true! For those ladies or gents who are being dragged in here by your significant other, there's something here for you too! They sell some quality bags that you can use for the beach or possibly every day if you would like. Or if you don't want bags, they have awesome hats you can buy and use to keep the sun out of your eyes when you're doing yard work or possibly watching your significant other work outside.. whichever you prefer! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for some awesome ideas for their house or apartment!
