We wanted this because we USED to like the shop and wanted to support them instead of taking the cash and spending it somewhere else. After using it a couple times my wife went in to use it and the man owner refused her, called her a liar, and got aggressive and nasty. He's a real jackass, abusive to customers, and doesn't deserve the business he inherited from Daddy. We will never go back in there after the way he treated my wife. Bottom line is he cheated us out of money. DISHONEST.

My dad used to renovate run-down stuff he'd salvaged from the Alna Dump (dump picking was legal; this was the early 70s) and sell or trade to Elmer. Hours would go by. So much amazing and rusty junk, and random things like thousands of wooden eggs and bags of antique long white gloves and lace tablecloths sold by the pound. Anyway, it's an antique mall, now, but there is still the old vibe there, chickens wandering around, rusty sawblades, and if you go out in the back rooms which maybe you aren't supposed to...The smell of wet cement and the old creepy tools hanging up *chef's kiss* Oh, and you'll leave with something reasonably priced. Last trip's treasures were that Yes album with the six part fold-out-art ($8) and a kinda cheesy old painting with ornate frame ($13); I'll toss the painting and upcycle the frame. Pretty sure some ghosts "live" there...bring a camera and take some spooky pictures to see spirit orbs! Can't recommend an Elmer's afternoon highly enough, particularly on a cold, rainy day.

My wife and I have dreamt of opening our own shop for several years, and were finally able to realize that dream in September 2023. We love scouring yard sales, estate sales, auctions, and the like, filling our shop with an ever expanding taste of the unusual. A personal favorite of ours is our vintage Christmas, but we also feature hand selected midcentury modern kitsch as well as our own crafts including wreaths and unique clothing. I’ve worked in and around the antique auction business for the last quarter century, and my wife has worked in secondhand retail for just as long. It has been most educational and we continue to learn something new all the time. We realize we’re not for everyone, but really love when people connect with our vibe.

He couldn't answer any of the questions and had to call and text his wife. He stated he didn't know what was going on??? The shop was very disorganized and dirty.

There are three floors of stuff and there is always a place for your eyes to go. A couple of things, like those old Coca Cola bottles, rotary phone, old crystal and old dolls caught my eye.
