We came here a couple months ago, as we love antique stores. We were actually on vacation in Chattanooga, TN but decided to drive to Alabama to check out some Pokemon shops and antique stores. I have to say this is probably the most disappointing antique store I have ever been too!
We saw the reviews online and how big it looked inside from the pictures. We decided to swing by and check it out.
When we first walk in to the right we saw a dalmatian dog statue. We collect anything dalmatian and went straight to look at it. There wasn't a price, so we asked the man at the counter. He told us an outrageous price, and the way he was talking he was doing us a "favor" by giving us that price. We should have known to leave right then and there, but the place is huge and it they are all individual sellers.
After looking throughout the entire place, upstairs and downstairs it was such a waste. Everything was crazy expensive, and over half the items aren't antiques.
We have been to so many antique shops, malls, etc. All up and down the East Coast and this by far was the worst/most disappointing. We will never ever be back or recommend this...

The jewelry was very fairly priced and I want to go back to look through it more. The bakeware section was a joke; I thrift for vintage Pyrex all the time, and I’ve built a collection for quite cheap. They were selling Pyrex sets for 10-20x what I would reasonably pay for it. As long as you know what you’re looking at, you can make a good estimate about the value of the individual pieces. There are different vendors in this store, so their own prices can be reasonable or extreme. It just takes some mindful shopping. Overall it was a cool place and I will be back to search for the good deals among the different areas of the store. They’re huge! I couldn’t see it all...
Read moreI was in their store today trying to purchase an item in one of the booths the gentleman at the front deck was helping, put was questioning my offer the to the both owner or renter. He did call the owner with my offer and the owner counter offer. I said I would do that price with tax’s included. The gentleman then replied saying I have called and txt them, they will not do that and I not contacting them again. My problem is with the gentleman, I fell as the customer that it was not his place or both or item to have any say. I was making a deal with the owner of the both. I was not buying an item from him. I and my mother and best friend fell that it was not his place to make.that call, it was only 7 dollars difference. He did not have good people skills. We were from out of town, and this is one store we will not...
