2/4/2024 I had been wanting to visit this place since driving by it for many years. It's a bit out of the way so I kept forgetting about it. I was actually planning to go to Anthracite Mercantile. On my way there I found myself in front of Claypoole's. I loved the owners and perusing the store. They were friendly and helpful. There is an abundance of merchandise but the store is not organized. I found the items to be extremely expensive. February is make an offer- but I am not comfortable with this- it would be insulting. I found a vintage glass rooster priced at 24$- I found the exact same item at Studio 895 for 4$. That's a great example of what I'm talking about. It's a fun place to look around- but I'm not likely to purchase anything there. I don't like when retail shops price something ridiculously high and then offer a "discount". Even with said discounts you'll be overpaying.

The store was way overpriced. I went in to buy a cabinet. I found one ,he would not budge on price.so.. I paid him for it ,cash,he put it right in his pocket.no bill of sale,nothing. and then he said I have another cabinet over here, and he shows me it. And that one is a bit bigger. Told him ,that one would work better for me,and that I would take it instead,since it was $20 more....this man who owned this store,looked at me and said all sales are final. You have to buy this one,for full price... Never expecting such a response,as this .I feel that I was taken for my money by a greedy man.I left that store with a very sour taste in my mouth. Never to return.Thinking how sad of a person he is. To put money over the satification of a customer. so much for taking care of the locals.

Very nice people, very high prices. Even if you haggled, they would have to come wayyyyyyyyy down.

Neat stuff, but the prices are above orbit, you can find better deals on eBay or like sites, even WITH shipping.

Lots of antiques and neat stuff throughout a very large store. A must see and convenient to combine with a Jim Thorpe tour.

Nice store but the owners are trying to sell things at EBAY prices. Thrift stores are supposed to be very affordable. Especially for lower income families and people in need.

Prices are a ripoff. We've seen many of these things at estate sales for much cheaper. A china cabinet that we bought for $50 at a sale, they were selling a similar one for $2,200. Cuff links that you can get for $5 were sold there for $35. Needless to say, we walked out with money still in our wallets.

Fun to look but the family running this place is all over on pricing. There was a sign saying "customer appreciation sale make an offer" and upon entering I was told I'd get a bundleDiscount. 10 minutes later I come back with an arm full of stuff and was guilted into $1-2 off each item. They even told us they get boxes of stuff essentially free at an estate sale and then price it like it was their mother's sentimental ... etc...It was fun to look but they need to run it like an antique store and clean it up a bit for the antique prices.
