The basement is our storage area. Vendors sometimes have pop-up sales and inventory can be priced at 50% off. We open the basement on most Saturdays from noon to 3 p.m. Call the shop to find out if it will be open.
If the owners aren’t available, our vendors have first dibs on items coming in the door for sale. Inventory is usually purchased at a fraction of marketplace value so that we may make a profit and can discount the price of the item, if it doesn’t sell.
