Silks and Treasures Consignment Store — Attraction in City of Oneonta

I used to love visiting this store with my grandmother and I used to buy tons of books here as a teenager. However on March 22 2025 I visited this store with my 1 year old daughter and had a really disappointing experience unfortunately:( On the door, the store has a sign to leave bags at the register. I complied and left my daughter’s diaper bag at the register. She currently has a cast from her chest down to her ankles, and has to be pushed in a large sized stroller. While walking around the store, I went around one of the corners and accidentally knocked over a picture in a frame that was on the floor. Although it didn’t break, it was still obvious that the employee at the counter was extremely irritated from a simple mistake.

It kind of made it seem like she was telling me to leave the store without directly telling me to leave the store. I have worked retail and like I said, completely understand the importance of deterring shoplifting. But people should be able to shop without being treated poorly, especially after complying with posted rules or making a small mistake. I go everywhere with her and her stroller and have never been treated in such a...

Since moving to Oneonta, I’ve been to the store a few times and I’ve found some amazing pieces. Like any other consignment store, it can be hit or miss, but that’s what makes it fun! Although some of the items can be a little more expensive than I would like, I’ve bought some new with tags items from amazing brands with great qualities and they are some of my favorite items in my closet. They also do discounts on items after a certain amount of time if the item doesn’t sell, so keep a look out for tags with an older date - they could be 50% off! I got a brand new LLBean dress for 50% off because it hadn’t sold in the...
