“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 happened upon this treasure of a place while walking today . It's everything an antique should be: interesting and unusual merchandise, reasonable prices. an affable owner and Sophie , his charming dog .”
“The nicest and most helpful sports card people!!! Best sports card selection in the city.
They helped me last minute with soccer cards for my 8 year old son. So friendly and I cannot recommend these awesome people enough!!! I would give them 100 stats if I could.”
“I recently won a few lots from Lot 14 on an online auction and there communications and responsiveness to messages was excellent. Great selections of items in their auctions as well. Cheers Lot 14!”
“Nice vintage shop with a lot of great curating going on.
My favorite things to look at were the jewelery displays. There was everything from costume jewelry, to 925 sterling, to gold w/ diamonds.
There was also a ton of unique and high quality furnishings / home decor to look through. Though the prices for most things were consistently on the higher end of things, the staffs warm and friendly helpfullnes made a great impression on me. I will definitely be making a note of this place for the future.
The pictures I've posted are for only a small section of the loop here. If you're into vintage and antique shopping I highly recommend stopping on in.”

“Such a charming little shop! Mercantile M has such a unique mix of gifts, home goods, and beautifully curated items — it’s one of those places where you walk in “just to look” and always end up finding something special. Everything feels thoughtfully selected, from candles and cards to handmade goods and stylish home accents.
The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They’re always happy to help you find the perfect gift or offer suggestions without ever being pushy. It has that cozy, local feel that makes you want to keep coming back.”
“Amazing, fun little shop! I come here all the time and there’s always a great find. The staff is excellent as well. Thanks for your help, Ken! Definitely must visit this store :)”
“This shop is beautiful! They have a wonderful assortment of so many goods, including greeting cards, candles, magnets, art prints, journals, mugs, cups, and coasters. There are so many whimsical and colorful items to browse here. Perfect if you’re looking to purchase for someone else or brighten up your home.”
“Vintage Grind House is one of the best antique shops in Chicago. They have a wide array of beautiful furniture and art and they even offer upholstery services
I highly recommend Vintage Grindhouse and I can’t wait to see their new location!”
“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?.”

“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 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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Finally stopped into the Secret Treasures Antiques after driving by it several times. It was a nice little surprise. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but the had a great selection of vintage Christmas ornaments and other decor. It was great to see so many shoppers today.”
“The staff members are so kind here! They helped me get a lovely new coat, were very knowledgeable about the products there, and helped me get my purse back when I left it there!”
“This place is so cool. The store itself isn't large but its PACKED with treasures. If you like antique and vintage medical stuff, or curiosities and oddities i highly recommend coming in here. They gave very fair pricing, and they also have items that are for display only. My favorite was the squirrel gun. A must see shop!”
“I enjoyed this shop and Steve was helpful without being intrusive. Perfect balance. Nice and interesting works of art, jewelry, furniture and others. Found two fun sewing books from early 20th c.”
“This is one of the most wonderful places I've ever been Ben waited on us and treated us completely Fair I will always go back there when I want to have an item checked out”
“I love the selection there. Shannon is an excellent and knowledgeable sales person. The owners are lovely and they just have the most wonderful treasures including original art. Beautiful and unique!”
“Stopped in while visiting the area and it was a pleasant experience. Bill is friendly, welcoming, and knowledgable of the pieces at the shop. We will definitely be looking out for items on the Instagram page.”
“Beautiful gallery with so much to chose from. So many treasures that could add beauty to any home. Laura is superb and her warmness makes you feel like family. Picked up two small pots that my wife adores. Definitely recommend checking it out!”
“To the 1 star review who wondered if they weren’t greeted because of their skin color, I can share I (a visibly brown person) spent hours here and no one was greeted no matter who they were or their skin color. That doesn’t bother me at all, I like being left alone to browse, but wanted to reassure people who may have been put off. Because if you ask any questions, you will get the warmest friendliest service ever. I’m so happy I discovered this place, the furniture is incredible and mostly from estate sales so very high quality stuff. I plan to visit at least a few times a month since they turn over so much stuff.”

“Reza was super friendly and helped me find the perfect runner as a gift for my best friends wedding. He also helped me stay within my budget which I very much appreciated. The craftsmanship is gorgeous! I’m excited for this to be a heirloom piece for my best friend and her family! I ended up going with the more traditional pink and blue one, but may be back for the on the right… it’s gorgeous”
