They are by far the friendliest coin dealer I have experienced as a younger adult collector. Always sharing new information about the hobby. Also treating me the same as a customer not matter the price tag I send in the shop that day. We need more pawn shops like this.

It is a family operated place. They had a good variety. Everyone was very nice. I highly recommend.read more

Driving down highway 178 (Clark street) just beyond the down town business district of Utica Il on…read morethe east side of the street you will find an old western frontiersmen style of store called Mix's Trading Post. Upon waling in through the front door you will either be delighted or intimidated at the decor and style, but do no fret this place is awesome. From 1920's post cards ($1.00 collectors items) to moccasins to Motorcycle Jackets, this place has it all. I stopped in on this particular occasion to look for a new pair of biker boots, I have looked around and I was either unhappy with either the style or prices I found else where then I laid my eyes on some traditional style Milwaukee lace up boots (not those plastic buckle sort of things that look like roller blades) with a nice modern touch dual zippers on the side so you lace them the way you like tie a good knot and you never have to lace them again! Thankfully they take credit cards becasue I was not planning on making a purchase but at $105.00 who could pass this up. The owner is good old guy who checks up on you but does not follow you around and keeps good conversation short. If you are from the area and have not been here what are you waiting for? and if you are just passing buy stop on in and check them out there is something here for everyone.

In 15 years of coming to Starved Rock State Park and exploring the surrounding towns, I've only…read morestopped in twice, the first time in 2002 or so, and more recently just 2 days ago. The place hardly changed (except for a new biker bar annexed to it), and is a welcome sight whenever we visit town, with its familiar storefront and vintage Western style sign. It promises unique treasures inside, and it delivers! The eclectic mix of merchandise includes biker/Native American/fantasy themed tchotchkes. They also sell Minnetonka and Red Wing boots. I saw a whole wall of guns and bullets. My prize finds are vintage Starved Rock postcards and some new old stock glass seed bead bracelets. Prices are inexpensive to moderate. I hope they stay in business for many, many more years!

Would not stop talking and was less than five feet away every time we moved. I was very disappointed and frustrated my husband and i couldn't enjoy looking at the beatiful things together. I felt very uncomfortable and almost insulted because I felt like she thought we were gonna steal or something, which we are both devout Christians we would not do that. Appreciate being available for questions or what not but that was waayyyy to attentive I practically ran out of there before I said things I would regret later. I just wanted to look around with husband but she distracted us so much it wasn't enjoyable and idk if we will go back.

I was greeted when I entered the store and wandered around a few minutes before I stumbled on to the cute little bottles of perfume that are small enough to attach to a keychain like a charm or something. Cute, practical, useful! While there was plenty to peruse, yet it didn't feel cluttered or overwhelmingly crowded. They use ApplePay (and probably other digital wallets, but this is the one I have) which I appreciate because it makes payment so simple! I'd recommend a stop here when you're in town.
