“Auntie Mae’s Antiques is a wonderful antique store and is definitely worth the 30-minute trip from the Moore/OKC metro area. The shop is located in an old storefront, and I love looking at the attractive displays the shop arranges in the large display window. It really adds to the feel of what it must have been like to be a shopper in this historic downtown area before it was historic.
Another thing I love about this store is the cleanliness and lighting. Both the shop itself and the items they sell are clean, and the ample lighting makes it easy to inspect items before purchase but also just enhances the overall shopping experience. I also appreciate the ample width of the aisles and the fact that all items are contained within the booths and do not clutter the main aisle. My husband is on the taller side and he appreciates that they do not hang items from the ceiling at his head height, a practice common to many antique stores. Another thing that adds to the shopping experience is that this shop provides a public restroom, which is much appreciated since we usually make a day trip of visiting all the Purcell antique stores and need a restroom sometime during our visit in town.
This shop offers a mix of smalls and larger furniture pieces. The majority of the items are vintage or antique. I don’t recall there being any retail-type booths offering food mixes, candles, glitter shirts, etc. that you often find in antique malls. One fun thing is that many of the booths are often running sales!
Another good thing about Auntie Mae’s is that the customer service is fantastic! On a recent visit, my sister purchased a large wooden wall cabinet/shelf, and the staff person happily volunteered to help me carry it to the car and figure out how to wedge it in the car. They also provide excellent online customer service. Recently I messaged them on Facebook asking to buy an item I saw on a recent visit and had decided I wanted to purchase, and they answered my message immediately, located the item, and sold it to me over the phone. I really appreciated this since it was the middle of the week and I couldn’t visit the shop to buy the item in-person until the weekend.
Overall, Auntie Mae’s is a terrific antique store in a unique historic space that offers a compelling selection of vintage and antique items at very fair prices, as well as exceptional customer service. This is a destination shop for me, and I highly recommend a visit if you are in the area!”
