Her inventory is terrific, having a large building on her property where her business is. She is exceptionally accommodating, and her prices are more than fair. I recently purchased a large secretary from her that was beyond what I had hoped for. I keep an eye out for her postings on FB as that is how I become aware of what she has at any given moment.

Antiques West is an incredible Syracuse gem that anyone who'd enjoy wandering through a deceptively…read morehuge maze of antique, vintage, and secondhand items would be crazy to overlook! It's a one-story warehouse-style building that's been sectioned and compartmented off into smaller areas where the wares of dozens (I think---it seemed that diverse, anyway) of individual vendors are arranged. The layout of the actual interior is deceptive in that you eventually reach a point toward the back of the main building where you realize that a series of doorways (and with abundant signage indicating what you'll find through each one) actually leads to several additional huge spaces beyond, each with even more items to browse. One of these "back room" areas contained multiple racks filled with vintage clothing (both women's and men's) that had clearly been carefully curated via the vendor's high standards of overall quality/vintage condition, and the diverse range of clothing types (costumey vs. casual/everyday vs. formal/dressy, etc.) was particularly impressive. My visit to AW happened accidentally and with only about an hour remaining until they closed for the day, so I know I didn't get to see all the rooms, let alone all the items, that were available at that time. Even so, I managed to find a wide selection of things to purchase (art prints, vintage collectible calendars, 5+ articles of clothing, two beautiful lamps, and more!) and was definitely able to confirm AW as a 100% worthwhile stop to include on any list of must-visit Syracuse antique/vintage shops. And what's more, every single staff member and vendor that I encountered while I was shopping went absolutely above and beyond in helping me find my way around, learn more about the back stories of certain items I expressed interest in, and trying on the clothing items I'd picked out prior to deciding whether to buy them. They seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me as a first-time shopper, and in turn I got to know several of them on a first-name basis even in the short amount of time I had to spend that afternoon. All in all I have nothing but positive things to say about the entire experience I had at my first Antiques West visit, and I can't wait to go back again soon!

This was our third antique stop of the day and I would need a morning devoted to exploring. The…read morebest way to describe is it has potential as a combo with antiques and garage sale type items.

Prices range from very fair to a little expensive, but overall the condition on everything was very good. Not a junk store but rather a curated variety by different vendors. I found many of the items to stick to specific eras/styles. A lot of Victorian, "cottage", Renaissance. A lot of stairs, and I didn't see an elevator. Some off street parking. Staff at the exit were friendly, but maybe a little sparse throughout the entirety of the store. This may be due to the vendor aspect.

New owners just re-opened this business on July 14th though we had not visited previously. They…read moregreeted us warmly and let us wander undisturbed. The entire building (basement, garage, main floor and second floor) is full of very well organized items. There were spiderwebs and visible dust in some places but overall pretty clean. I wanted to wash my hands before I left but bathrooms are currently not available to customers due to COVID. All staff wore masks, hand sanitizer was available at the door, and all other customers that I saw had masks on as well. Each floor has at least two means of egress via stairs. There is an operational freight elevator but I'm not sure if they allow customers with mobility challenges to use it. I like that their sections of records and books had been sorted by genre - that makes looking for a specific title much easier. We found the prices a little high though we didn't find anything to purchase and negotiate. Lots to see, some beautiful wood furniture, and we would definitely stop back.

They stock good, solid, pieces in a variety of styles, which are all tasteful. The staff is friendly and personable. Gideon's also keeps all of their various internet platforms up to date with what they have in stock, which is something I really appreciate. But the store is lovely, so go visit! As far as layout- upholstered items such as couches and big chairs are in the front space where they are better protected from the elements. The door to the back is where their tables, dressers, buffets, and other hard furniture are. The note I made is that they have sets but they are typically broken up into the type of furniture. For example you like a dresser and wish there was a matching nightstand for it then you will likely find it in the nightstands. Overall a very solid place to seek furniture.

And the prices were extremely reasonable. Also, there were some great books there, especially for anyone interested in military history. Moreover, they had some very interesting Oriental art on their walls. The people I dealt with here were very pleasant, friendly, and helpful. They even offered to carry the box of books I bought out to my car for me. It is great having a place like this open in Elbridge. Anyone interested in vintage items, or a collector of odds and ends, will have an outstanding time in this little curiosity shop.
