Buyer beware! I just purchased a beautiful bronze sculpture from this store; however, it wasn't until I got it unboxed and looked at it in better light that I saw it had major damage. I understand that antique stores are "as-is" and I take my share of the blame for not looking at it carefully enough. If I hadn't specifically had a conversation at the check out counter about the bronze and asked whether the gentleman selling it had noticed any major damage, I wouldn't have such a bad taste in my mouth about it. I see now that instead of answering my question he sidestepped to tell me where and what time period he believes it came from. Since the piece was already wrapped and boxed by the time I got to the check out counter, I didn't get a second look at it before purchasing. Was that intentional subterfuge on their part?

We had been in the store for a while before we asked about a restroom. If you do not want the public to use your restroom then don't say people can use it when they ask about it. This was my first and now last time in your shop. This incident has now resulted in the loss...

My wife and I purchased some tables from this antique mall. One of the tables had a small gap between boards on top, we were willing to accept this minor cosmetic imperfection to have a matching set of tables. However we returned the next day to find another matching table without a gap on top. We asked if we could swap out the tables but the owner refused. We feel our request was reasonable given that the table were priced the same and if all of the tables had been on display, we would have chosen the two without the gap. We left feeling disappointed and honestly, a little bit cheated- hence the 1...
