If you act like a jurk, you will probably get bad reviews. The guy not at all helpful, just sit in his chair doing nothing. Treated people like they where going to steal something. Asked him about a nice pair of silver candlesticks and he said they where $425. I asked can I see them.He paused for a minute and said are you going to buy them? I said I don't know till I see them . He finally got one out of the case and held it in front of my face. I again said I want to check it over. Finally he handed to me and stood leas than a foot from me. I asked him if he would take $400 and he said no and sat down. Didn't say another word. Very rude and unprofessional. No public bathroom also. If this guy is a example of the people of Petoskey, you better fire him, or he needs to find a new job. I been collecting sterling coins and other antique items for 50 years and have never felt so uncomfortable in any shop.

Honestly the worst experience I’ve ever had at an antique store, the owner, or whoever was behind the counter was incredibly rude, my girlfriend and I frequent antique stores and both of us have a collection, we walked in and it was if we were not welcome there such a negative experience with the person working there I’m not sure if they have a big issue with theft or why the gentleman thought he needed to be so negative, but honestly, I wanted to get out of there the moment I interacted with this person and blown away by the customer service representation of this individual people make you your money why in the world would you be so negative to the individuals in your store

I go to hundreds of antique stores around the state, and I am very disappointed in my experience here. There were lovely stones and items, but the man behind the counter is one of the rudest people I’ve met in customer service. I inquired about a price of something and was entirely ignored while he was sitting on his phone, until my man inquired about it. And then when I had asked about a “custom charge” that was on the bill of my receipt, he responded. “That’s for the rocks you grabbed, did you want to buy them or not”. In the most disrespectful tone. As someone who’s worked in retail and antique stores, this is very unprofessional and repulsive behavior. Do better.

Cluttered, rather overpriced, and not a good vibe to be fair.
Browsing the selection is rather interesting, but make sure you Google the products you're looking at to make sure you don't get to scammed as certain selections of items are just resold bulk items off of Temu, Amazon etc.
A lot of neat items inside but the quality of some items are not worth the price no matter how antique they might be. Regulars seem to be the only individuals having a nice experience so if you are from out of town and are looking for a friendly personable experience, I wouldn't expect it.
After browsing the selection and traversing the whole store I noticed another review in which they responded about how it's all measured out right and blah blah blah, but I will say that in the stores I have worked it, the walkways need to be significantly wider to insure the safety of their products. If you need a mobility aid, then this place most definitely would be difficult to browse without causing an incident.
For the record, I come here once a year, its like this everytime. I was going to pick some stuff up today but I just wasn't liking the vibes, put my stuff back and just headed out and found out the items I was going to purchase were just cheap bulk trinkets you can find online.
Their dog is wonderful! Great doggo!

The gentleman looked through the stock to find me the item I was looking for. Thank you very much.

Highly overpriced for a run-of-the-mill selection and extraordinarily rude to customers. Time and money would be better spent elsewhere.

I'm not sure if the guy was the owner. I hope not! Asked if any vinyl records or old shellac records. Was told in the small room. Look through those and asked if there was anymore in the store, to which he replied, just the several thousand in the room I was just in. I thought maybe there was another room I had missed, so I asked in that room he said yes, to which I said there's not 1000's in there. To which he replied several hundred. Umm, 2 crates, not several hundred. Guy was being a real jerk for some reason. Don't know if I didn't appear wealthy enough for him to be in his store but left. The only pleasant part was the nice dog. Won't get any business from me ever. Was interested in the marble folder in his case, but his rudness drove me off.

This store is overly crowded and you can barely walk through the aisles. That wouldn’t be so horrible if the owner wasn’t stalking you to make sure you didn’t break anything because he purposely makes the aisles un-walkable. I found a few things I liked (although overly priced) and was going to buy, however I put them down the second he tried to charge my brother for knocking something over. Because the aisles are so overcrowded, my brother knocked over a firetruck on a table, but did not damage the item. The owner claimed he damaged the table it was on, however there was far extensive damage than what a firetruck could have done. My brother nicely waited the few seconds for the owner to run over where he said “I saw everything on camera” and my brother said what can I do I feel so bad and the owner said “you can pay the $225 for the table.” The owner called us “classy” when we left without paying for the table he “damaged”. Avoid this store at all costs for the psycho owner. We should have read reviews before coming.

To all of the negative reviews. Stop crying. These folks have a business to run and if you can't control yourself and not break stuff, DON'T COME IN! The dogs are AWESOME and well behaved. There are signs on the front of the building warning you of dogs on the premises. If you don't like dogs, DON'T COME IN!All in all, if you behave yourself you won't have any issues. If you don't, this owner is not afraid to call you out. I had a very pleasent experience here. 5 plus stars.
