Sulaine's Antique Mall — Local services in Detroit Lakes

I would give it a higher score but I was in there with my family and one of the ladies decided to follow us around as if we were going to steal. I definitely do not steal but it did make me want to leave the store sooner so we just bought what we had and left. But I'll be back they have really cool finds. It just really bugs me because I have probably spent thousands of dollars there throughout the years. She knows who she is and she knows that she was wrong. I didn't have to confront her but she got to see the kind of person that I was before I left and I think she felt a certain kind of way. Hopefully she starts to treat others better it becomes a little more self aware the people can see her and know exactly what she's doing and others that have more perception even know the reasons why she does what she does 🤔 but we did buy a beautiful elephant for my wife a little necklace and the lady that checked us out was extremely nice and really helpful and she was extremely nice to my autistic son which was really appreciate. I would also like to add that at this antique store you can find really unique gifts for people or if you like old stuff they have really cool finds and you can even buy silver from a guy named John a little over spot price. If you know somebody that's about to have a baby a really funny unique gift idea is to buy the baby a silver spoon which you can find at this antique store 😉 FYI: If I had better experiences I would give them a higher rating between a 3 and 4. (RARELY EVER GIVE A 1 OR 2 STAR RATING ONLY UNLESS I HAVE HAD A NOTABLE UNPLEASANT OR...

I had a very enjoyable time looking through all their treasures inside. There is something for everyone! I saw both young and old seeking out their next trinket or special piece to add to their collection! I bought a really awesome wooden Ship Captain's game that I can't wait for my son's to learn.

One thing that totally caught my eye was when you first walked inside, a display on the left had milk paint, mineral oil, leather cleaner etc which is perfect for me. Due to a severe latex allergy I cannot be around latex paint, balloons etc and was actively searching for a local brand of milk paint like our ancestors used and found it finally! I can't wait to share this news with my other upcycle furniture group who tend to order online like me. I could have spent all day there and only made it down one aisle on both sides. I will definitely be returning since I also spotted stamp collections and loose ones as well. Not to mention a treasure trove of hard to find books. Yep, I loved going through everything and the staff was helpful...

My boyfriend and I stopped in here after spending an afternoon at the beach. I’m an avid vintage and antique collector and buyer, so I was excited to check this place out. I felt extremely uncomfortable shopping here as we were followed throughout our time there, and spotted the older gentleman following us multiple times, and never once were we asked how we were doing, or if we were looking for anything, let alone a hello. This made us extremely uncomfortable and judged; frankly I walked out empty handed because of how they treated us.

Tl;dr: we felt like we were judged because of our attire and age (we’re in our 20’s). Don’t pay them a visit if you don’t like being...
