It's important to understand that Bulk Vintage and Briar Vintage are in the same building. Bulk…read moreVintage is on the 2nd floor, Briar is on the 3rd. Are they the same? They are not. Bulk Vintage is exactly what they say they are - they buy and sell bundles of used clothing primarily wholesale. Once a month they open up their floor to the public, typically this is a Saturday. Sometimes they have a Friday night limited admission shopping time too, for $10. If you don't/can't shop at their 'open' time, you can reserve 2 hours of floor time with a $100 non refundable deposit that is credited towards your total purchase. The building is an old factory structure tucked in a quiet industrial area. The street out front is where I parked. It was well lit, no problems getting a spot up front. Inside, they are on the 2nd floor, there are rows and rows of large cardboard boxes with their tops cut off. Each has markings on it of generally what is in there and either a set price or a range. So you'll see "vests - men" or "boho skirts". There are also items hanging up on racks in the back. If you're interested in one of those you ask for a price. When you come in they're very pleasant and efficient. They show you where baskets are for carrying items (NO outside bags or boxes allowed). They also show you where bedsheets are at the end of each isle. This is kind of clever. When you want to dig into one of the bins, they tell you to put the sheet down on the ground in front of the bin and put items you're pulling out on it to keep it cleaner and keep from pushing items to boxes on either side. I paid the $10 to shop in more quiet at night, there were maybe 10 people. This is most definitely a DIG, so if you're not into sorting a bunch of stuff in an industrial warehouse setting, this is not the place for you. I had a blast and picked up some amazing finds, including a fabulous wool cloak from the 1960s that is so warm. Oh and one of the other shoppers bought a coat very similar to my ski jacket in high school - back in the 1980s. Dang, I'm getting old. Would I go again? Yes, I would. Maybe on a Saturday rather than paying for Friday access.

I am surprised to be doing the first Yelp review for this place, as it has gained a lot of…read morenotoriety on the socials these days. People were describing it as a hidden gem-- well hidden no more! I dibble and dabble in thrifting and I particularly love a quality vintage piece (you can check some of my other reviews on some of the other vintage spots in town as well), so imagine my pleasure when I saw they were having a fill-a-bag sale. The bags started at $20 I believe, but by the last day of the sale, they were $5. I decided to go (on a whim) that day to the $5 bag sale. Overall, it's definitely not something I would do again without a snack and heaps of energy. I came within an hour of the sale ending on a hot day and I was basically about to keel over. Rummaging through piles of vintage items is certainly not recommended on an empty stomach. Heck, on a full stomach even. It is not for the faint of heart. The piles were pretty big! I did like that they had mail buckets to put your clothing items in as you searched. I strategically meandered around the outskirts of the piles, but some people went to further lengths. I imagine there was even more to dig through earlier in the sale, so in some ways by the last day it was manageable for me. I also was happy that the crowd at least seemed to die down by the final hour. No complaints, really, about the staff there. The woman who greeted me referred to their bag policy when I accidentally left my purse on, which isn't a huge bag. I get it. She didn't reprimand me and didn't make me take it off, which I offered to do since I was parked such a short ways, so that was nice of her. Her and 2 other people working there watched as people shopped, which I wasn't really sure what to make of, but they weren't following people. I will just assume they were hanging out. Workers helped keep the piles tidy and they moved their other inventory aside. It was pretty organized. I paid by Venmo and there was a slight surcharge on the bag of 15 cents. I would like to return on an Open House day to see some of their typical offerings. I mean the finds I did leave with were pretty sweet. I would rate it above any thrifting for the impressive vintage finds. Everything I bought was definitely vintage in a range of eras and I only spent $5. Where else are you getting that?

If you are looking specifically for used classical & Broadway musical CDs, this is a good resource for that kind of music. I donated 8 wooden cigar boxes to Circa, & Michael, the owner let me have a catalogue on the surrealist Yves Tanguy as a trade. Much appreciated! He's cool to chat with.

Certainly worth stopping. I do hope the management can learn customer service. I entered because the shop looked charming and I wanted to buy unique gifts for family this Christmas. I have been to shops like this before with "no photos" signs, which I follow. This shop had no signs. No one said hello when I came in, someone went to take a dog for a walk. No problem. I was taking a few photos to decide what gifts to get, texting other family members to decide what to get. There were no humans in the photos, and nothing was art. At one point the man behind the counter said "you should really ask before you take pictures." I apologized and asked if I should delete them. He said no then went on to tell me that at my age I should know how to be polite. I apologized again and told him that some oddity shops like photos used on social media and there was no sign. He then went on to tell me I should know better, which resulted in him telling me that I can't take criticism. It was a bizarre interaction. He told me to leave, which is his right. So I left without buying anything. It was an odd interaction and I hope that they put up a sign if photos are something they do not want taken. I hope that the 5 stars is "polite" enough for them.
