“Brought in coins from my dad’s collection. I tried to find out the cost of coins on my own and was overwhelmed. Then didn’t even know how to begin to sell them. Went to Oakton Coins and Collectables. They went through them and gave me a price. We sold to them and trusted they were being fair! I’ll probably never know but made that deco to sell to them. Hard to part with my dad’s collection but we lived in Oakton for my entire youth and young adult life. Maybe meant to be.”

“i love this little shop so much. we come here often and there's always really cool and nice pieces here. the prices are so fair! we purchased a few items over the year here. a decanter, a table lamp, a large wooden decorative ladder. we plan on spending more money here. the folks working are always friendly and approachable.”
“I was in a massive hurry to a wedding and completely forgot to pack my cufflinks! The folks here were able to help me, having some cufflinks out for me to select from and helping me move quickly. My only regret is I couldn’t stay longer since the folks are incredibly nice. Would love to go back again since the selection looks incredible!”
“Did an online auction with Ian. He was very responsive & patient with me. Especially since this was the first auction I did with him. I'm very happy as a bidder. It was also pretty cool to see an old MJ bball card go for 25k on the webcast!”
“NOT your usual antiques shop! The selection and finds one can buy are always truly astonishing: Just browsing is an exciting adventure, imagining the objects’ past lives, and being amazed at the inventions and whatnot of yesteryear. The owners are super helpful and always a delight to chat with. The place is so well-kept and clean, and has lots of welcome sunlight to make the mood so cheery here.”
“I couldn't be happier with the amazing refinishing job Valentino and his team did on an old but beautiful ebony Baker dining table, a large 1780s chest, my daughter's childhood dresser and a vintage magazine holder. They are museum quality now -- and were a disaster before. Their attention to detail and expertise were amazing. And Valentino was so knowledgable and gracious to deal with that it made the whole experience a pleasure. His team expertly and carefully picked up the pieces and delivered them back to my Gold Coast home when they were finished. I smile every time I look at my refinished pieces. I never realized how happy this would make me. And his fees were very reasonable considering the superb quality. Thank you, Valentino!”

“Absolutely recommend 100%. I was tasked by my grandma to have a doll restrung. I was about to ship it to another company for much much more $$$. I didn’t know so I assumed that’s what it costs. I confirmed the address to ship it to and that company never responded. I reached out to GIGI’s. Emailed me back quickly. Very reasonable price. Told me how to ship it. Was returned fixed to me within about a week. Was very happy with it. The doll owner is very happy as well?.”
“Very lovely store. Lots of unique pieces. Very expensive and far out of my budget but nice to peruse. This is more of a collectors warehouse for those with a good amount of money to drop. If I could afford it I’d buy something for sure.”

“Super cute shop in Ravenswood/Lincoln Square. I’ve purchased a few items including a vintage refurbished desk and their super warm washable wool blankets.I’m giving it 4 stars because they’ve started selling more “new” furniture and less vintage or refurbished furniture - which isn’t my thing.The staff have always been super helpful and knowledgeable about all of their products, so if you have questions they will definitely have answers.Make sure to check out this local shop, I’m sure you’ll find something you enjoy.”
“I went today to pick up some insect display cases that were posted on Facebook marketplace and ended up leaving with a bunch more treasures. The shop owner is super nice and everything is super reasonably priced. Can’t wait to go back!”
“This place brings me warm fuzzy feelings just by walking inside. When you walk in you are bombarded with color, stimulation, and maximalism. Get ready to have fun.
Foursided is a great place to get gifts, candles, local artwork, small plant pots, baby books, cards, and more. The people working were talking about House of Dragons while I was shopping and they gave me the vibes that they wouldn't be upset if I jumped into the conversation!
Once you make your purchase they take off the price tags in case you are gifting the items which saves me a little time in the long run. They have tons of cards to choose from, making this a prime spot to go to get someone a gift. An extra bonus is a lot of the merchandise is from local artists and Chicago-themed.”
“I walked into Scout on a whim looking for a bar cart. What I found was a welcoming, knowledgeable staff, with a fantastic curated collection. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Scout with easily become my go to place for interesting and eclectic finds.”
“Antique Resources is a true gem of a destination for European antiques of the highest quality. Visiting their vast showroom, one is immediately impressed by not only the friendly, courteous and knowledgeable Staff, but also the vast selection of carefully selected, superb items of exceptional beauty and historical value. The pricing is both fair and reasonable, particularly because of the quality and rarity of the items. If one has a love for the best and the beautiful, a visit is an absolute necessity.”

“I called to get a get what the commission was on my 14 k braclers. The owner told me 97% of the spot price. I did the calculations and came up with the price. I get there and she changes the commission to 93% of golds current spot price. We do the math and she pulls out a sheet of paper with the price they pay for 14 k based on Gram price. Nobody would show me the sheet. I do the calculation and the price would be $87.92 after 93% of the sot price commission which came out to over $6000. The lady owner looks at her sheet of paper for what they pay for 14k gold. Unbelievably she offers $78 a gram Which lowers the price by $1000 to $5000. My calculations were correct. Her piece of paper was taking a 15% commission. She says I have to make money ( by cheating me). I get up to leave and she flashes $5200 cash. For me it's no dea when you steal.”
