Cape May Antique Center — Attraction in Lower Township

My wife and I LOVE this place! It’s the perfect mix of: “Man-Tiques” (Need some sports stuff from the 60’s....You can find it! Your favorite comics....Covered! Beautiful original and restored toy trains? They have them! Toys! They even have things for the grandkids!) She loves the fact that from jewelry to housewares to records to high-end handbags that are “gently used” are sold at very used prices! We do a LOT of antique hunting (As a senior Jewish couple tends to do!) One thing that we’ve noted is that a lot of other antique malls have gone over to rubbish and reproductions...Tin signs and t-shirts with a helping of everything else found in a garage sale. Not the case here! It’s really neatly organized and everything is quality! We’re what you could call “frequent flyers” here-I’m a retired teacher, but my wife ran a children’s boutique for 25-years and we both agree that the staff is always super nice and patient-Even if they have 20 people waiting to pay and someone jumps right in front, waving something in front of their faces demanding that the world stop at that moment so they can see if there’s some additional discount. They’re really professional people from the wares they present to their customer service-And that’s only part of the reasons we keep...

Owner claims I have the wrong store, but I am fully aware of which store I was at and this definitely happened, considering other negative reviews of people saying the employees made them uncomfortable, I can assume I’m not totally hallucinating.

I would give negative reviews if I could. The lady working was extremely rude, like to the point where is was actually bizarre. The man in front of us tried handing her a $50 bill and she refused to give him $20 change because she “didn’t want to give away her 20s” she told him that if he really wanted it he would send someone back with smaller bills. My mother was standing by the exit about to leave and she full on screamed at my mother to move without even asking politely first. Like screamed MOVE to the point where I could hear it across the store. Actually disgusting behavior with expensive yet low...

The place had great stuff however the owner is miserable. Didn't realize the place was closing as were finishing up looking at things & instead of politely saying we're closing soon was rude & nasty when my husband asked to see something in a display case. The second & probably most important thing is there is a giant American flag (painted or stained on wood or another heavy material)outside her store displayed with other things for sale which was upside down. Now if she meant to display it like that, ok she has her own view but when brought to her attention he was annoyed we said anything & said well it's too heavy for me to fix it, I can't do anything about it. Even after offering to help put it right she remained "put out". GUESS THAT FREEDOM YOU ARE SO FREELY GIVEN ISN'T WORTH IT TO YOU, I BET SOME SOLDIERS WOULD...
