I am just the chauffeur. Apparently it was ok according to my wife. Clean and we'll organized.

Pretty nice kind seems like a higher end, clean thrift store. They wouldn’t let me take photos inside the store. They carry a range of dishes including vintage, mid century and older. They say their stock changes often so they don’t bother with images on the web site. But I mentioned to them it’s tough to know if I want to go there when all you see on the site is text. That’s annoying about this business. There really wasn’t much furniture for sale which is what I wanted. One of the frustrating things about consigning here is how arbitrarily they handle accepting items. I was dealing with one person who shoved away items as \we don't take those\ and the other worker saying \we could take that.\ It was annoying because the web site has absolutely no guidelines such as \only porcelain china\ whereas what I brought in was higher end vintage china. I would have sorted accordingly if they had these guidelines, however rough, posted online. I feel that my time is not respected when I have to box, truck, stand in line waiting for my appointment, go through their arbitrary take / reject process, get rushed though packing rejects, truck it back home where I'll list online. It doesn't take a lot of effort on their part to put the info up on the web site.

The store has a very nice selection of assorted household items and jewelry. Everything is clean and in good shape There are some especially interesting items that set it apart from other consignment shops. Truely a treasure grove for people with discerning taste. Sadly, where this all falls apart is the method they use to accept the good from their suppliers ( consignors). Their policies have changed during Covid 19 as many businesses have had to do. Their new policy is that when you bring your items in they don't account for any of them until you come back as early as 10 days later and they will tell you at that time what they kept, what they've sold and will show you a contract if you ask for it. They do not account for the items you've left with them that they deemed were not \sellable\. I'm Ok with them donating items but I'd like to know what items of mine they gave away. They simply tell you that they donated it and when asked they have no record of everything you brought to them. They no longer email you a copy of the contract. They have your goods without providing any form of contract as to what you brought in. Should you inquire about specific items they do not provide accountability as to what happened to them. A retailer and their consighnor should have a solid and transparent business relationship. Sadly, that doesn't appear to be the case here.

Used to love the store, however, I decided to stop shopping there when I 1. Found a set of house slave salt and pepper shakers. 2. I talked to a man there (not sure if he was the owner or an employee) I told him that these items should not be sold. As a person of colour it was extremely offensive. I asked if he would sell Nazi items too. He said probably yes because they are historical. Then an older white lady that was overhearing this conversation said that she owned a pair of those shakers and realy loves them . He said I could buy them for 50% off to get rid of them. Um why would I financially support this? You’ll just do it again. Well sir, some things should either be destroyed or put in museums. You shouldn’t make a profit out of racism. I know this is a business but as a human you can make the conscious decision and be an ally of people of colour, in which, some were descendants of those house slaves. I would encourage you to do more research about it and maybe ask your black friends or family their opinions on the issue. I know it’s a “historical” item but You don’t specialize in historical items. You also sell other thinks like a black and decker bread machine, a mike Holmes book, and a Jamie Oliver cook book. Please return these item to its original owner and make the conscious decision of not supporting this, an item that should have never been in production or sold in the first place.
