Went to this store this morning. Waited until 11:00. Still not opened. Walked to Summerhill which is a fantastic store. Made several purchases. Returned to this store and owner had door blocked and wouldn't let us in. Said we needed an appointment. Does it say on yelp that we need an appointment. No. Did it say on the door that we need an appointment. No. Will not be going back. Notice - yelp people make an appointment.

Best antiques always! It's an adult's treasure hunt for sure.

Karen and Greg are two of my favorite people. They go out of their way to be helpful and kind. Their store is always bursting with so much good stuff. And their inventory is consistently changing so there are lots of new things to see with each visit. The prices are very fair. Some of my most favorite antique pieces have been purchased from here. I cannot say enough positive things about this place and its owners. It is an absolute treat to visit! Make sure to call ahead to check if they're open and to make an appt.

On 8/16/23 I had Antique's to sell. A friend told me about this store due to he talked to a gentleman the day before and said to have me come in. Well I accidentally went to the wrong store across the street and the lady at that store was very sweet. She showed me where it's about time Antique's. When I walked over there they had shirts outside for sale and a sign blocking to go inside saying appointment only. I started to call the number and a tall lady came and says how can I help you. I told her I had things to sell she then replied I'm not buying anything now. Told her about my friend talking to a guy. She said well I wasn't here yesterday then says oh ya I was. I asked are you not buying because of space and she looks at me really rude and takes a deep breath and says YA that's what I said. We couldn't even go in to look we needed an appt. I grew up here and never saw a store in the circle turn people down To go in store. The lady is really rude and by this post doesn't really sound like it but believe me she was. I would never buy or sell there. Don't waste your time

We are moving out of California and wanted to experience Orange Circle one last time. Went into my favorite antique store and was once again met by the rude woman that I believe owns the place. My hubby and I were immediately drawn to a large, deep seated leather couch as soon as we walked in. As soon as we sat down on it, the lady comes over and says "That's $2700." Her tone and facial expression suggested to me that she assumed I couldn't afford it? We never asked for the price, nor were we looking for the tag; just took a seat to feel the leather. I replied, "ok... thank you" and she proceeded to say "it's from restoration hardware so you can find them anywhere." I was put off by her rudeness and tone so I decided to ask her a question about shipping to see how she would respond. "Oh no we can't do that, isn't worth it for us, you can buy this couch someplace else." WOW. We started to walk the perimeter and immediately the male worker there plugged in a vacuum in the corner we were standing and started vacuuming right behind us- every aisle and step we made, he was there to vacuum behind us. We noticed a gigantic armoire that was super fascinating so my hubby was trying to find the tag with the info on it... suddenly the man stopped vacuuming and said to us "Is this something you need? This piece is for storing quilts, do you need this?" It was such a rude and off putting remark, basically forcing us out of there because clearly we are being watched like a hawk and they don't want our business. Such a shame what this place turned into. I was coming here for years and even wrote a similar review with this similar experience the last time I was at this place years ago... hoping things would be different this last time we will be in it. NOPE. Take your business elsewhere!

Our favorite antique furniture store in Orange County. No junk. No "collectibles". Excellent prices and wide range of styles.Pro tip: The "Appointment Only" sign at the front is really a lookie-loo filter. If you are there to buy, you'll be welcomed anytime.

Don't let the "by appointment only" sign at the door put you off! If you're in the market for a beautiful selection of well priced antiques call the number on the sign if they're not with a customer already they will invite you in. (or set a time, browse the Circle and come back). Karen (the lady described negatively in several reviews) is a really lovely person. They have chosen not to run a shop open to the public for "lookie lous" instead they run a showcase for interested buyers. If you are an interested buyer you will love this place! We have purchased many pieces from Karen & Greg, some pristine and some I'm need of TLC which was always reflected in the pricing. We rarely get out of there without a treasure for our home.

Rude lady running this place take your money else where!! Her reply when we tried to go on was come back in 20 minutes it's by appointment only "ya know whatever" that's her unprofessional response.

Went trying to find decor for my new house. Love antique stores and had great things to look at but yikes the lady running it will watch you like a hawk if it "looks" like you're not there to drop a grand. Couldn't even enjoy the history of anything without feelings like she was expecting me to somehow shove a dresser in my bag and leave. Could've had a good sale if she wasn't so busy being judgmental. Disappointed and will not be returning

I've been coming here since I was a child. I love this antique store. Always a treasure to be found. They have both high end and lower end stuff. Great antique furniture too. Hope they continue to stay in business.

Recently moved to Orange County and this has quickly become one of my and my husbands favorite ways to spend an afternoon. Greg and Karen are delightful, so I'm surprised by some of the negative comments. Greg is incredibly knowledgeable about antiques and Karen couldn't be more helpful. I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to have people coming in to look and touch things with no intention of buying, especially now that the street has been turned into a street fair atmosphere due to covid. My husband and I are earnest antique hunters and we have amazing finds from here that we enjoy every day, including the overall experience of this wonderful antique shop that's like walking into a movie!

If you are an antique enthusiast like me, you must check this shop out. This store is full of genuine treasures. I have shopped at "It's About Time Antiques" store for over 2 decades now and the place still sparks "JOY" immensely every single time I step foot inside this place. It saddens me whenever I see anything less than five stars rating for this magnificent store. I have had the privilege of receiving nothing but first class service from Karen and Greg. I also witnessed them treating many of their customers (me included) like gold with their warm and friendly greetings. Thank you Greg & Karen for your superb service!!!
