Very nice hardware store with knowledgeable staff. I talked to a guy named Bill who was extremely…read morepleasant and knew his stuff. I have been looking to get a new smoker and when I go to the big box stores I asked questions and only heard things like this isn't my department or that's a good question I will have to look into it. Bill was not only able to answer my questions but educated me on the differences between all the Tragers i was looking at and helped me decide on the ironwood XL which i have been very happy with. I will always help out a small local business and this one is a gem.

This pawn shop has been here for as long as I can remember. I actually bought my first Clarinet…read morehere when I was in middle school! It was decently priced, and I still own it to this day. It has never given me any issues. Recently, we paid a couple of visits to sell some odds and ends just to make a few bucks. I honestly was a bit skeptical because usually pawn shops are pretty picky when it comes to buying items... But so far, this is the ONLY pawn shop in the area that doesn't rip you off. They give you your money's worth, and usually give you what you're asking. If not, they make an amazing deal with you. The staff are wonderful, knowledgeable and understanding. I'm so glad we made the choice to sell to Hickory Pawn! I'm not the only person extremely satisfied though, my husband, my aunt, my mother in law, and my dad all FOUR love this pawn shop!

This consignment shop has nice, gently used furniture, as well as other decor items (art, faux…read moreplants, even a full set of dishes -- including butter dish, creamers, etc.) I really like the price tags. They let you know when the item came in, and the pricing structure, so as items age, the price comes down. I visited another consignment store recently, and they were very mysterious about wether-or-not the price would ever adjust. This model of business is very good. If you don't like a price, if nobody else buys it, you can hold out for a better price. But honestly, they price so well, I bought an item that had just come in earlier that day. I had no reason to wait. :-)

A very nice consignment store, well laid out, up and downstairs. Lots of stuff, although all we…read morewanted to see were chairs. Help was available and they were very helpful. We saw one chair we liked. It would fit our needs, was the acceptable color, material and size...a la my wife's seeking standards. Did we buy it? Of course not. Hickory is loaded with furniture outlets, so off we went a exploring. A couple of more locations and them the big kaboom: the Hickory Furniture Mart. Another review coming on this enormous, four level block-filling edifice containing just about any manufacturer and style of furniture one could imagine. We did not find anything that was better than the one at The Hickory Tree, so after some coffee and lunch at the Olde Hickory Station (see that review), we returned to the Hickory Tree. Since this was a consignment store, all items had a sales price tag with the prices listed over time. What I mean is that a price of $175 was scheduled to cost $150 on the first of the next month, then it would cost $135 the next month, and so on. This being the middle of the month, and not wanting to risk the desire chair being sold while we waited, we bought it...right then. They accepted credit cards. With the help of a young man we loaded this chair into our SUV and were off for home. An excellent, but exhausting furniture shopping experience that I survived. Before you blow your mind out looking for furniture all over, start here at the Hickory Tree. Prices reasonable and mark-downs abound. And nice people.
