Wonderful antique shop! Lots of booths with lots to see. Filled with old items, none of the new craft stuff you find in many shops claiming to be antique stores. And we loved when the owner was playing his guitar and singing while we shopped. Highly recommend! We will definitely go back!

Upon entering greeted by a man playing a guitar singing god knows what, its very dark and dingy, went to buy a couple of books with a card and the same guy playing the guitar said we arent wired for that new fangled plastic stuff and thats thats all I had no cash nor check, so not only did he lose a sale he lost a customer. And not only that he made me feel guilty for having it.

Decent antique mall, I feel like the selection was decent, but not great. Less of a treasure hunt than I normally like. Prices seemed high about everywhere.

This is a wonderful Antique Mall!There was so much to look at and the owner played his guitar and sang beautiful and relaxing songs the whole time.If you are looking for a relaxing place to shop or just walk around and browse I highly recommend this Years Ago Antique Mall!

Nice place...but like many places with vendors selling products in their building..... just because its old doesnt mean its an antique and people actually want it. Some of the products look like they should be sitting in a Goodwill, not in an antique store. Who wants a 25 year old toaster or blender?

Tons to look at which was great. Higher prices though and there’s a lot buried by other things. Another comment said it was gloomy, I’d have to agree, wish there were more light.

I used to live in the area about 17 years ago and would frequent this antique store many times. Upon my last visit (from out-of-State) I was largely to a point, disappointed. Some areas (little nooks and crannies) are just way too loaded down with all similar items such as dishes and dish ware, i.e., cups and saucers, etc.. That’s just one major example. To myself to a point, it resembled a place where literally tons of different items were dropped off simply to get rid off. Way overkill. No real giant organization beyond what was needed to get around without stumbling off into a loaded up corner that contained mounds and mounds of all same similar items. I realize it’s been almost 20 years since I lived nearby (in Paulding) but I think the store has sorta taken a turn not necessarily for the better. Not a great deal of variety as I also once remembered this location having. The day I was there, a friend I was with was told when attempting to buy a couple items by the pony-tailed guy up front strumming a guitar matter of factly stated that they don’t handle any of that ‘new fangled technology’ regarding credit and debit cards. Guess they don’t want to necessarily do that much or great of a business. Most of their asking prices for larger items (furniture and so on) - who would generally have their check book with them or lots of cash in pocket if you had been wanting to purchase such a thing as those?? Makes no economic or business sense. The guy minding/running the store didn’t act too overly enthused if you were there or not. He was too worried about picking his musical strings reminiscing over 1970s yesteryear. That’s fine but not when you’re supposed to be representing a business establishment, I don’t think is very retail savvy. I know one thing, I won’t be back again anytime soon or later. Don’t bother wasting your time. And don’t expect to use a plastic card for payment, it won’t be happening. They lost my business. And my friend’s, also.

Good variety of goods to choose from, however, the atmosphere is too gloomy for me to frequent often.
