Treasure Keepers — Local services in Emmett Charter Township

It’s full of stuff but for our first time there we had a rather unpleasant experience that left a bad taste in our mouths. We were enjoying ourselves, looking around at all their items, and found a couple Disney vinyl records. They were old and not in the best of shape but they were priced like $3-$4 a piece so we figured it was worth it to pick them up for our collection. Upon checking out, the older lady who was running the cash register asks us where we found the records and says that they were priced wrong. There were no other records in the entire building. She then comes back and says she would give them to us for $15 a piece. We declined as they didn’t seem worth that much at the state they were in. The cashier, who eventually tells us she is the owner’s sister, then proceeds to triple check the prices of the rest of the select few items we found, which was a lengthy process. The entire time, talking horribly about a younger girl that works there, blaming the incorrect prices on her. The whole time making us uncomfortable, worried that any of the other items we picked out might be subject to a price increase, all while having to hear someone badmouth another behind their back.

Unfortunately, I had a bad experience with these ladies. I had been in their shop and it's been good, so I called these ladies to come to my mother-in-law's home for her Estate Sale to help raise money to move to an an assisted living home. I thought these ladies would be fair and honest and unfortunately they were not. At first they offered very little for the large amount of items they loaded up on. Then got nasty and combative. After negotiating, I found that they had hid very expensive Hummel figurines that were worth at least $50 each and other items underneath stuff. It is so sad to say that you invite these people into your home and they rip you off. I do believe in karma and what comes around goes around and shame on you. I hope what you stole away from our mom was really worth it. You will meet your maker one day. All I can do is spread the word and hope that people will read this and not shop at Treasure Keepers or from the...

Went in with my two daughters and they were very nice. Later my mother picked out some furniture and I went back the next day to get it but it was 10 minutes to closing time. Showed them the picture and told them I would be back following day. They increased the price on the item in that time. You can see in pic it was marked $35, next day $90 for pair. Then my husband went in later to get me something I saw for my birthday and my 5 year old picked out a brooch that wasn't priced. Every pin around it was priced $5-8 but she said that "she could do $15 for that". For my 5 year old! Battle Creek is a small town. You need to do right by people to make it around here. We got the items and they got the price they wanted for them but our relationship ends there. Hope the incremental $30 was worth it. You clearly need it more than we do. We turned around and spent $500 at timeless furnishings...
