“The best coin shop in RI by far. An honest person in the coin business is hard to find and this is an honest coin shop. He is always a very busy so yea you have to wait but it is worth it”
11AM - 5PM
35 West Main Street, North Kingstown“This place seems to specialize in larger furniture items than smaller items that a lot of other antique and estate liquidators have. If you're interested in finding a perfect period piece or a garden fixture this place is for you. I personally didn't enjoy it too much, (large items or furniture isn't really my thing) but if you're the type described above you'll find a great trove here.”
“cute little antique shop. lots of clothes and kitchenware. it was super hot in here since it’s summer, so i’m sure fall would be best to visit. definitely worth checking out though!”
“I loved the store. Agreed it can use slight bit of organizing but the lady who owns it is quite old and has had the shop for 53 years. It has a lot of hidden treasures as long as you have the patience and the eye for it. She has some amazing crystals for a steal of a price again, they may not look super clean but all it needs is a quick wipe/ or a wash and it’s back to its original glory. I bought some beautiful glasses, washed them and voila! Will come back again when I’m in the area. Highly recommend the store.”
“Third Rock Emporium is my absolute favorite place for rocks, the gentleman in here is so kind and I love talking about the stones with him, he's so knowledgeable and even does rock hunting and his own tumbling from nearby beaches, I love this place so much!!!”
12:30 - 5:30PM
310 Atwood Ave, Cranston“This store is absolute gold and so is the owners heart. You can tell this is driven by passion and not greed. John is a straight shooter, a great source of info and a fair person to work with. Two out of two times that I went there to sell and I left a happy man. Pokémon cards, sports cards, memorabilia, vintage video games and much more. He also won’t give you grief about grading your stuff before you get there which was a huge plus for me. I could go on forever but I hope you get to experience it for yourself. Thanks John, I will be back!!!”
“Fantastic, personalized experience - I bought several pieces and was extremely happy with the selection, quality and price. Lots of unique options and ideas. The delivery was prompt and professional. Thank you RJL!”

“This place is amazing! Has beautiful antiques and furniture. I use a rollator and mobility aids and antique stores are usually very crowded, for me, they were barely crowded, and were able to move things that were in my way!”
10:30AM - 4:30PM
810 Ten Rod Rd, North Kingstown“The pieces they have are really high quality and the building itself is interesting. I believe it's haunted as I felt a weird presence in the back area of the "garage" area and at the top of the wrought iron gate to a basement.”
“A very interesting array of items. Those working were very friendly and helpful. But for having the young kiddos with me I could have easily spent an hour or two exploring.”
“The process to have my mom's furniture removed and consigned was easy and seamless. Great service: polite, responsive, efficient. But the standout experience was when an envelope of cash--a lot of cash my late mother stashed in a drawer--was found in one of the tables I'd consigned. Mike's estate services contacted me to let me know, then they arranged to have it sent to me (I live on the west coast) via priority mail, adding several steps to their already busy day to ensure I received it quickly and securely. I'm awed by the character, class, and honesty of these great humans.”
“Something for everyone. Frequent new additions. If you don't see what you want today, you may see it tomorrow. If you are a regular visitor, and you can't find what you are looking for you won't find it anywhere..”
“The customer service exceeded my expectations. They were very straight forward and happy to answer any questions. Also, because I was shipping across states, I worried about delivery hiccups, but there were absolutely no issues.
I would recommend them for appraisal services and for their vast selection of art and unique finds.
You are sure to find statement pieces here!”
“The place is awesome & a breath of fresh air! The inventory is always changing & you’ll always find that conversation piece which will brighten up your room! Check it out! ?”
