Visited for the first time last Sunday and was completely blown away by the turnout! Not only were…read morethere so many people, but the variety of items was impressive--everything was well-maintained and beautifully displayed. I went in without many expectations and ended up spending quite a bit of time browsing. We didn't buy anything this visit since we wanted to get a feel for what it was all about, but we're already planning our next trip. There's plenty of free parking, and admission is free too--which, in this economy, is definitely a win! We love that it's so close to home, and it's been a long time since we've come across something like this in the area. We'll definitely be back in July before school starts again!

Coast Vintage Market is a very cool swap meet style flea market with tons of items from yesteryear…read morethat will take you back to another time. It can almost be like a treasure hunt looking for that special item that calls out to you! Even if you aren't looking for something specific, you might find something that is awesome (to you anyway). There is definitely a wide variety of stuff, from vintage clothing, to old car emblems, home decor, old business signs, and toys that, depending on your age, might make you remember the good old days. Prices can be a bit high, and some vendors will haggle, but this isn't really the kind of market where you get an amazing deal. Most people know what they have and know the market for their stuff. Vendors are still friendly though and will chat about what they have. Located in the old Laguna Hills parking lot, it has about 10-12 rows of vendors that are about 50 yards long. Last time we went there was an agua fresca stand but no food vendors. Even though it's in a parking lot, parking can be a challenge so be prepared. Everything is under construction as the mall is closed down and the buildings are empty so people kind of just park wherever. All that said, this can make for a great weekend activity to get out and walk around. Though it is infinitely better in the morning when it is less crowded and cooler outside! Being in a parking lot there is no shade and things heat up quickly in the afternoon. Overall, a solid local experience, especially if you like flea markets.

The owner was very friendly and greeted me and asked if I needed any help. I looked around and found vintage clothing items, some more trendy and modern items, artwork, shoes, vinyl records (a whole room dedicated to them!) and a cool vintage display case with Knick knacks. I found the cutest Y2K bedazzled jeans but sadly, it didn't fit me very well. I'm pretty sure another baddie snatched them up! The price for them were decent since they were a unique find. I wish they worked out for me but it didn't. Anyway, I think this is a good store to stop by and support the business owner! Unlike Goodwill which advertises as non-profit, they are practically all profit. Support small shops!! Keep them up and afloat!

I went into Artiques on August 4th and purchased a few items that I took with me that day, as well…read moreas a large hutch that I was told was their hottest selling item. I was not able to take delivery of that item due to there only being one in the store. I was told this item shipped from North Carolina. Less than 30 days later, I had lost my job quite unexpectedly and went to the store and asked if an exception could be made to return the merchandise I bought, which was still in the original bags, as well as the piece I had not taken receipt of yet. Don took the merchandise back and marked returned. He told me I would have to speak with the owner regarding the hutch. I reached out to the owner and did get her on the phone eventually, at which point she told me she would have to inquire with her vendor to check the status of the hutch. She never provided any follow up, despite several more attempts on my behalf to reach her. During our conversation she never said she would not provide a refund. I went into the store another time and spoke with another clerk who advised it was possible I had not heard back from the owner because she was busy with a shoot for Housewives of Orange County. Following this, I filed a dispute with my bank because I had exhausted all attempts to reach the owner. Today, several months later I was advised that the credit I received from my bank was reversed. The documentation that was read to me by the Chase representative as provided by the owner stated: "I came into the store after 30 days and wanted to return the merchandise. Don took the merchandise and called the owner who said it could not be returned. I said I would talk with her directly and asked him to hold the merchandise while I went to lunch, and that I never returned. Further, it stated, the item was shipping from India." The rebuttal provided by the owner of Artiques is a complete lie. Don never tried to call her, nor did I tell him I would be back after lunch. Had he tried to call her, I would have personally asked to speak with her. He told me she was in the Las Vegas store, and not easily reachable. He took the merchandise and marked returned on the receipt. Why would there be any reason to return based on an interaction like that?? (Further, I was told by the owner's husband that the hutch was shipping from North Carolina, yet the owner says it ships from India) In the one phone conversation I had with the owner, I asked her for discretion on her store credit only policy within 30 days due to the loss of my job and a parent within weeks of each other. I understood I was at her mercy at this point and was hopeful that she would make an exception. She never told me she would not, and never mentioned giving me a store credit. Further, I had a friend with me from the east coast the same day I made the purchase, who also patronized her store for more than $1300.00. So essentially, I brought her business that she would otherwise not have had. At this point, not only do I not have the merchandise I paid for, Artiques also has my $1759.15, for which I have nothing to show. I have all the phone records to show my attempts to reach the owner, as well as records that indicate I did in fact come into the store within the 30 day period. Not only do these folks operate without compassion or understanding for mitigating circumstances, they also operate without integrity.

They were easy to work with and extremely quick turnaround time...we even went out to their shop to inspect it before we committed to having them refinish our desk. Their shop was spotless and they had a number of items to inspect and that is what sealed the deal for us is that their shop was spotless and very nice things they were working on. They also came and picked up the desk and delivered it back here as well... this was a risk for us because we had reached out to a handful of companies a couple years ago and looked at their work online and was just not happy with their work. If you are in the market for having some furniture refinished, we strongly recommend Heredia Antiques.
