I'm not typically someone that leaves a public review or take something to the internet but I wanted to share a very poor experience that I had at this establishment in hopes that this will prevent it from ever happening again or for anyone who may share the same sentiment. I moved back to this area and stumbled upon this consignment store on Google that I've been meaning to check out. I typically venture to Pennsylvania/Philly for these types of stores or even Haddonfield but I was in the vicinity so I stopped by. Right when I walked up there was a rack of clothes outside that I went through first. I found a Joseph Ribkoff item that was of interest to me and I was going to grab it and bring it in the store with me but decided I wanted to browse the store first before making my final decision. There was a sign on the door, something along the lines of "stop if you're wearing a hat, sunglasses, etc and smile as you're on camera", or something to that effect. I didn't really make much of it as I've seen stores that are basically making you aware that there's surveillance in the store. As I walked in I was greeted by someone behind the counter asking how I was and if this was the first time I've been to the store. I answered yes and was then asked if I was looking for a gift. I responded by letting them know that I was just browsing. Typically that's when the conversation ends and you're able to go off on your merry way and shop but instead I entered a very strange and beyond-ridiculous conversation with that person (who I later found out was the owner). They pointed above and mentioned something about a weird security system (which I didn't bother to look but I just assumed it was a camera, not really sure what was weird about it but I took it as their way of telling me "hey, we have cameras and we're watching"). I was told because I was a MAN (that's what they assumed I was) that I wasn't allowed to go past a certain point to look at the racks of clothes unless I was being followed by someone to watch over me. I was also told that there were women in the dressing room and the reason behind all of this was from a supposed robbery the month prior. The conversation was very uncomfortable for me as it was clear I was being profiled and it was being insinuated that I would steal and assault customers. Not that it was any of their business, but I could guarantee neither of those would be happening despite their blatant discrimination. Because of how unwelcomed I felt and how overly awkward the situation was, I decided to calmy walk away stating "it's ok, thanks anyway" as they continued on. I once again stated "it's ok, it's a little sexist, but it's ok" and as I was leaving the owner or one of the employees started mouthing off at me and nastily responding "whatever" to me which is rather unprofessional. I left feeling shocked and quite upset as I've never experienced something like this before. Out of the many stores and small businesses I've been to that I've always supported, including consignment shops, secondhand stores, etc, I've never hit such resistance where I've been profiled and discriminated against. Not only that, but it was very telling after seeing their Instagram bio, and how the discrimination runs deeper than just the surface. I found it to be quite an interesting decision they made to leave stock outside in which anyone can just come along and take it, without being followed I may add, despite their recent incident and their desire to prevent another occurrence. As someone who has grown up in business for years and runs their own small business, this is no way to handle a business nor is it smart to alienate and malign potential customers, especially someone who was not only looking to buy, but was interested in the stock and pricing to see if this would be a good relationship for consigning. Who would ever want a shopping experience like this? I’ll stick with the shops in Princeton or places like Raks and Greene Street as I'm always treated with respect and kindness and like an equal...

I knew the previous owner of this store and when I met Michelle the new owner she put me at ease immediately and we became instant besties. She’s warm, friendly, has an incredible good eye for what would look good on you and sensitive about your budget. She has never pushed a sale on me or made me feel like I couldn’t afford what she’s selling. You know she has a great clientele by the way everyone seems to affectionately respect her and lingers longer because they love shopping at her store and spending time with her. I’ve chatted with her other customers because I worked retail even had fun jumping in and helping if the floor gets busy. Her love of her customers, humble pride and professional polish you don’t find just anywhere. The regular diversity of women from all walks of life are welcomed, she has a fabulous rapport and reputation and if you had the chance to know her like I have over the years you’d know the reasons (yes more than one). A wonderfully kept clean, organized store with beautiful items that tease every tastebud and wallet can be found here. A good staff that cares and has a lot of bustle on the plate to operate it but they certainly have good heart with...
