This is a super organized, super cheap, super good thrift store…read more We were so impressed with the care and organization that had gone into this store. This is one of the best organized thrift stores I have been in. It is a pretty good size. It also acts as sort of a general store for the area as there is not a place to buy simple supplies in the area.

Our treasures we brought home are even more special to us because of The Cat!

A local Gem indeed and a bit hidden away if you're not familiar with the location. It's worth the venture.

I will start off by saying that the store itself is beautiful and has an impressive collection of…read morecurated vintage, and that is why I gave it 2 stars instead of 1. The owner does shopping by appointment only; I previously thought this was due to covid-19 but now I see a review from years ago saying it's always been like this. When you go to a store by appointment, of course it's implied that you are to buy something because you're taking up the owners time when others could be giving it business. Here's the thing: I went in completely unaware of just how insane the prices are here, probably the most expensive vintage store i've been in out of the 100 i've shopped at before, and some of this includes very basic items such as a navy and red tank top with stains on it ($45). Almost everything in the store was above $70. I understand that it is completely up to the store owner as to what they believe their items are valued at, but this alone is not why i'm writing this review, it's the way I was treated at the end. I realized as I looked around the store that there were very few things I could afford, I walked in with a $100 budget, which normally could get me a couple of items in a vintage shop (depending on what they are of course). Again, I understand that the store owner has the right to determine their pricing, but I soon realized I would not be able to buy much. I ended up picking out a bandana mostly because I would feel bad for occupying an appointment space and not buying anything. I went up to the counter to buy the bandana, which turned out to be $20. I asked the owner (I presume) if she had any other vintage recommendations nearby, she recommended Double Take, which I looked up and said "oh wow, it's far" just out of my own surprise, because i'm not familiar with Santa Fe. She replied with a sarcastic "whoops!" as if I was blaming her for it being far. I finished my transaction and thanked her for the bandana, to which I received a dry "thanks." It's one thing to have your store be absurdly expensive, it's another thing to make your customers feel bad when they can't afford it. Had I known this is how it was, I would not have visited. I don't recommend coming here unless you could care less about how you're treated, regardless of whether or not you buy something expensive enough for approval.

The person who gave a bad review due to rudeness must have different expectations than most. The people who own the place are not there to entertain you, but there to help only if needed. When I went in I got to wander around without being bugged by the staff. When I did have questions they were more than willing to help. I found newly made Mexico furniture that was just outstanding. I bought two pieces that would have cost hundreds more elsewhere. When I told the owner I was looking for a Southwest table he said "just text me the pictures of what you want & I will send it to my Vendor in Mexico. He can make it to order at a much better price than anywhere else in NM" When I went there to load my heavy pieces the owners family member came out to help me. Totally not required by them, just great people. Some prices were high, but there are many things there consignment so owner has no control over them. This is a must stop.

Thrift stores, much as they can unveil diamonds in the rough, are indeed labor-intensive and exhaustive. Good flea markets refuse to allow worn and torn merchandise to sit on any shelf. The Family Indoor Flea Market offers booth after booth of delightful finds, and yeah, a lot of this stuff might be sitting in your grandparent's cabin in the mountains, but there's plenty of retro goodness tucked alongside at prices that compare or often beat what you'll find at your local Goodwill. I didn't buy anything here, but I spent about a half hour admiring the goods and I can think of four or five items I'm itching to pull my consumer trigger finger on. Albuquerque is awash in flea markets, which makes a ton of sense because, hey, this entire state is about two decades behind the times and so there's plenty of Rubik's Cubes to go around. There's a ton to find, here: furniture (not couches, but tables and chairs galore), decorations, lamps, comics and kids items, you name it. And again, I was often astonished at the cost. Here's a nudge: some of these vendors are seriously desperate for a sale. Cheap, you hear me? And I can dig that. I'm cheap. Sounds good to me.
