This place is larger than it looks. It has many items. The only thing I didn't like (which isn't their fault) is that there are stairs and areas hard to reach if you have mobility issues.
I had an unfortunate experience with the staff at this store. During an estate sale I attended recently, I observed the owner, an older woman, behaving quite rudely towards my brother. She was running the table with a friend who was very kind. I saw her agree to lower prices for some older gentlemen who asked, which was fine, but her attitude was unprofessional. Later, my brother found a box of miscellaneous items containing an A&M belt buckle. The box was priced at $2, and he inquired specifically about the belt buckle, as he wasn't interested in the other items. The owner increased the price after doing her research, despite her earlier willingness to negotiate. When my brother attempted to negotiate, she dismissively stated it was the first day of the sale and not her home, so no deals would be made. I was disappointed, especially since I had previously seen her making deals earlier in the sale. Today, we visited the store again to look at some fall items. I inquired about a small, inexpensive hoverboard on the ground, which my child was interested in. She quoted $45 for it, despite the device not having a charger, not turning on, and being worth roughly $15 based on my research. When I pointed this out, she responded dismissively and was quite rude, dismissing my concerns and making snarky remarks. Overall, I found her attitude to be unprofessional and disrespectful. I’ve heard some things about this store before, and my experience confirmed those concerns. There were items I was interested in, but I quickly lost interest after feeling disrespected. I want to commend my 15-year-old brother for how he handled himself during this experience; I am very proud of him.
