Was taking a leisurely trip down PCH. Antiques and clock!? I had to go in. Walked in with a big…read moresmile on my face. A strange mustiness lingered in the air. Place was filled top to bottom with antique furniture. Beautiful old wooden pieces. What I didn't expect was the smell to grow. It was then I noticed some cats. Then, I noticed the floor was lightly coated with kitty litter. Instantly had a hoarders flashback. The smell seemed to intensify. Had to get out of there within 5 min. Was afraid to see waht I would find. Great concept, but smell was horrid.

After visiting the store a day earlier, I decided to return to purchase a vintage, disassembled…read moreclock to use as a project and give as a gift. The owner, Scott, greeted me warmly as I quickly walked right to the old mechanism I'd come to buy. Picking it up I asked him how much and he replied "well, that's part of a clock." Confused, I explained that I understood and wanted it anyways. He gave a long story of how he didn't want to sell it and that many people have asked about it already. "Then how am I as a customer, supposed to know what's for sale in your store?" I asked. He said, "it'll have a price on it." But looking around and presenting about ten different items (all unlabeled), he said each were indeed for sale. With no website, no posted hours, and cat litter scattered throughout a dingy, smelly store that is presented more like an episode of Hoarders, I'm unsure how this store can stay in business, especially when much of their "merchandise" is NOT available for purchase. Definitely a store that could have potential, but at this time it feels like imposing on someone's messy, dirty living room.... And it's a pass.

When paying for the work done, I was stunned to discover the bill was way below the estimate. The owner said that the clock wasn't in that bad of shape.

As a first time buyer from Fashionphile, I am impressed by the entire experience. Jackie was so…read morepleasant to work with - she put my dream bag on hold (an option I didn't even know existed) and ensured that it wouldn't be snapped up by someone else. These are the things that set this Fashionphile apart from luxury stores (ie South Coast Plaza): *The store itself is small but emmaculately kept, with an incredible selection. *Cecelia showed me a ton of bags and was incredibly knowledge about all the fashion houses. We totally geeked out over the history of the bags. Of all my experiences shopping luxury, THIS is what makes shopping luxury fun. I'd much rather have this experience than deal with snooty SAs, waiting to be "offered" a bag, water, chocolates, etc. *The bags are absolutely authentic, in better condition than described, and there are fantastic deals to be had. But if you like something, get it quick because it will sell out. This was definitely worthy of a 2 hour drive!
