What People Are Saying About My Favorite Place

The Scene – This 10,000-square-foot space is so packed with goods that shoppers can barely squeeze inside. End tables and Naugahyde chairs are stacked four high, leaning precariously in the corners. Narrow aisles of veneer-wood furniture are crammed with what-nots like Pyrex, carpet samples, LPs, a few legitimate antiques and lots of just plain junk. Browsers range from retirees hunting bargains to designers going for that shabby-chic effect. – – The Goods – It's like discovering a lost civilization, circa 1972. The Holly Hobby souvenir glasses, macrame plant holders,…

Racial Profiling!!!!
by b4night
My husband and i went to this place a little while ago. We finally saw a crystal decanter we wanted to purchase when we noticed the same man going in each isle that my husband and I were in. We were not sure at first, so we decided to test him. We went back to another isle that we were previously in, and there he was again. It was obvious to us that were were being watched and followed. We immediately put back the bottle we were going to purchase and walked out. I will never recommend this place to anyone I know and I will make sure that everyone knows the experience we had there.We are hard working peopleand have never stolen anything in our lives and certainly would not start in a trash heap like that. If you are not white, I' m sure they will have their eye on you!! Stay away!!
- Pros: Nothning
- Cons: Racists

Great for junkin'
by theatticfan
It's true....if you love digging through stuff to find treasures, this place is for you. Some of the aisles between shelves are so narrow, you have to walk sideways! But it's totally worth it if you like resale/thrift stores and flea markets. This place is a great mix between the two.
One suggestion: If you are traveling to the Atlanta area from other areas, definitely allow yourself plenty of time at this spot. It is UNVBELIEVABLE how many aisles there are, and if you're like me, you want to make sure you cover every single one!
- Pros: The variety of stuff you'll find...old and new
- Cons: Not the best customer service I've ever seen, but don't let that discourage you!!!

You have to dig through everything...
by atlpetey
...but it's worth it. If you like going to places like this, you already like to dig through a bunch of junk to find a treasure. It's a lot of fun packed into a smallish space.
