When I wanted to understand my family…read morehistory and the cultural heritage of this great state, I took it upon myself to figure out where I could go to see it up close. Take this wonderful store, and it was a dream come true. I was lucky enough to be visited by one of your lovely employees, Sreya, who guided me across the many paintings, furniture, and other knick-knacks organized beautifully across the store. She put up many great conversations, and it was a lovely interaction that we had while I scoped out which products to purchase. While talking with her, I ended up buying this lovely trinket to commemorate my time in MN. Thank you for having such a lovely store and for hiring such wonderful people.

When I asked from clarification of how this happened and when the other person bought the couch, they skirted around the question. This is NOT how you build trust with customers.

I'm just going to come out and say it - this antique store is lame…read more I was SO disappointed after wasting my time walking through the entire store, every nook & cranny, first floor and basement. This former bank building is full of modern crap and - maybe - some things I might consider "vintage". It's little more than a big garage sale...a garage sale where I wouldn't buy anything! I managed to find only a handful of items that I'd consider antiques. For example, how many 1990s glass tumblers do I need to look at? And why would I want to spend money on a dance trophy from 1999? To make things worse, the two staff members at the front desk were busy looking at videos on their laptops. They said nothing, never looked up, and were completely devoid of any customer service skills whatsoever. Don't bother opening the door. Keep walking and check out one of the other shops on Main Street. -Daddy Maxx Retro

I was last here about five years ago and found a set of glassware I probably paid too much for but it still shines out in my scattered collection of glass pieces. This visit I didn't see any special or unique glass but then I breezed through quickly. There are separate themed rooms to narrow down your search. "Oriental"? Well a little less PC than some like but a vast collection from Asian and other Occidental lands. There are many twists and turns and a second floor and a few stairways to portions of a third floor. There are record albums your grand and great grand parents would appreciate if they had a device to play them on. I found the celebrity magazines of radio and movie stars of the 30's and 40's fascinating with the real inside story about Fibber McGee and Molly. Their celebrity life was even before my time but they had about the funniest radio sitcom which still can be heard on old time radio shows and websites. You have to wait for Fibber to open his closet door..my how we digress. One note about this store. They have posted a sign showing a decrease in operating hours. They are now open only Friday through Sunday. Is the magic waning?

Don't let the small size from the outside fool you. This may not be the biggest antique store but they know how to pack some value in a smaller place. If a high end antique store on Royal St. in New Orleans or Village Saint Paul in Paris had a baby with the best thrift store in Brooklyn, Antiques White Bear would be it. Great finds with just enough digging, reasonable prices, and workers who care enough to help out, but smart enough to let you get lost in their treasures.

The prices are better, sales, delivery and quality was by far the best in the cities. Save time and just go to Borofkas!!!

The space is huge and includes three floors. I spent some time browsing and got carried away with the available options. Once I found a set of dishes I liked, I pulled the store owner and asked if they could separate sets. He gave me a few options 1.) Buy the set 2.) Browse upstairs and downstairs for individual dish items to create my own set 3.) They would lease the entire set to me at full price and allow me to pay 20% so long as I return it within two weeks. This is a game changer! Having access to an entire antique mall to source items and lease them at a fraction of the cost is INSANE. This is definitely a spot I will return to for their great selection, stellar customer service, and flexibility for photographers. They even asked that I share the photos with them. I ended up creating my own little breakfast set and it was such a great experience.
