Used, Vintage & Consignment near Long Grove, IL

“Scout and Forge is a Hidden Treasure of Long Grove! So many unique finds that bring back the memories of the past. Love this little shop, wish I could visit it more often.”

“My mom had to move into assisted living. I was told of Acosta's and shopped at this location when the furniture store occupied this location. Located on the first floor, handicapped parking is available. The staff is very friendly. I felt the commissions were very reasonable. Most of the items that we put on consignment were purchased. I would come here again for any resale of any other items and I highly recommend it to other people. As far as payment, my check was mailed to me promptly after the consignment. Was concluded.”

“I've watched my fair share HGTV shows where the designer goes to some kooky place filled with trinkets and treasures of times gone by. This place is a bit like that but mixed with the early days of Etsy. "Designers" can rent an 8x8 or bigger "storefront" to showcase their unique designs. Mostly stuff reclaimed from decades gone by and redesigned with some kind of flair. There's generally a theme to the different storefronts: women's vintage clothing, funny and lovey-dovey sayings regarding dogs and cats, plastic and silk flowers, dairy and farm, sarcastic sayings, whiskey barrel designs for the men dragged into this place, etc.

My wife and I found a whimsical chip and dip bowl. It was nice and will replace one of the blander versions we have at home.

Truthfully, there were quite a bit of items that were perfect housewarming gifts and gifts for people who have specific decor tastes.

It's also a decent place to just kill some time browsing through all the stuff people have created to get your own creative juices flowing.”

“Wonderful small shop. It's so lovely and enjoyable. It's always such a treat to go and find something buy. Great sales go on (normally 25 and 50 off sales) and great things to choose from. There are brand new items and also some gently used ones. The owner of the shop is always so sweet, and I make it a habit to come in once or twice a week to see if there is anything I might like. Definitely recommend!”

“If I could, I would give Upscale Rummage 10 stars! This place is truly amazing. Do you love thrifting? Do you think you've got your thrifting routine all worked out? Do you think you've got your line up of unmissable Chicago thrifts sorted? You are wrong... unless you've already been to Upscale Rummage already and this is your number #1 thrifting experience. No thrift store in Chicago gets even near the fabulousness of this place. It's huge but it is not filled with garbage. New and incredible stuff comes in every week! Great antique and modern furniture, light fixtures, books, records, clothes, jewelry, kitchenware, gardening, sport gears, textiles, rugs, mirrors and art... they also have a year-round Xmas shop and regular department discounts. This shop is also incredibly well curated. Items are very fairly priced too. Rene', the owner, and her army of charming helpers are a true delight. Always smiling and welcoming. We bought so much from this store. It has brought so much joy. We end up there almost every week and rarely leave empty handed. And the money goes to charity. I mean, what more do you want? This is the one and only thrift store in you need. Chicagoans, take a trip to Libertyville and learn how it's done. If you have not been to Upscale Rummage yet, you don't know what thrifting is about. Go. NOW!”

“I love, love, love, LOOOOOOOOVE this place and even more, the fact that the WINGS program even exists! The ONLIEST reason I rate 4 stars instead of 5 is because they close so darn early, and I can't always get there on the weekends to shop. They used to be open until 6pm during the week, and IDK what happened to that. :(”

“The owner and her staff are very attentive and greet everyone with a smile and when you leave her establishment she always says THANK YOU FOR COMING ? regardless if you purchase or not. You can find unique gifts for just about every holiday or birthday! However if you see something BUY IT! BECAUSE IT WONT BE THERE WHEN YOU COME BACK! I can't say enough about this little gem in Libertyville.”

“I can't say enough great things about Robyn's Nest! My mom and I frequent her store almost weekly. She is kind, accommodating, and offers a warm and welcoming environment. Not to mention the store is beautifully curated and laid out for a comfortable and enjoyable shopping experience. All items are in beautiful condition and organized neatly on racks and shelves. I have found so many fun treasures here and look forward to the next time I shop here!”

“We have to say this establishment is wonderful - Lucille. We wanted to donate a relatively nice black leather couch/sectional. They were extremely responsive and the 2 gentlemen that picked up the couch yesterday were great. We attempted to use another place but they wouldn't respond after an initial email. We are glad we found a home for our couch. The ladies here were also great. I can't speak to the actual store itself but the process of donating was 10 out of 10 stars.”

“This opens up only at certain times of the year but when it is open. It’s one of the best places to visit for any antique or even newer items. Chances are, you can find anything you’re looking for here. Overall, a great place to visit, prices vary by seller, and what you find depends on the time you go.”

“I had 3 bags of my late wife's clothes to donate, but arrived a few minutes after their donation hours (10 am to 3 pm). Therefore, I went into the store and asked if they'd make an exception this time and accept the items. The lady at the register said yes and another young lady opened the back door. Both of these ladies were very nice, expressed their condolences, and accommodating. I'll be donating at Wings again.”

“I’ve gone here for years, since I was in middle school, and i’ve always been able to find some great stuff.
Unfortunately a lot of the items nowadays are shein and polyester, but if you check frequently you can find some goodies + the fitting rooms are available! I highly appreciate the ladies that work there as some of the customers have no home training and leave the store an absolute wreck!!!! (like leaving clothes on the floor and getting them all dirty with dust because of it! put it back on the rack if you drop something!!!)
The prices have slightly increased over the last two years but that’s to be expected as inflation is hitting everything.

Otherwise, I will continue to come here and the color tags with discounts are my favorite! I’ve also found some of my favorite clothes from here!”

“Love this place. I was looking for a bar cart and found a dry sink in great condition. The best part is, is that it was only $7.50! Very nice and organized store.”

“I love estate sales and I will say I have been going to Bries Estate sales for some time. I’ve always have had very nice interactions with Clark, Radeck and Kelly. I understand that they have no control of what is actually in these homes. They are honest and fair. Often times will tell me what is coming up that they think will interest me and i appreciate that.

I never feel pressured or as if I’m being watched which I’ll be honest has happened at other estate sales.

Clark has always been honest when I ask his opinion on something and may even point me towards something I missed. When the day comes and I need to clear my estate lol I will call them. Always kind and professional and we need that.

Happy hunting!”

“I frequent this store all the time and always come away with some treasure. I can't tell you how many good buys I have found. Yes prices have gone up, as have prices everywhere. Cost to operate any business cant forever stay the same.”

“I really liked this store — a great selection of branded clothing, there’s plenty to choose from! I was helped quickly and politely; the staff is great. I highly recommend this store ?”

“I always have a good experience here , not sure why there is so many bad reviews . Workers are always polite, Mimi is a sweetheart , Avery is always professional and kind , and their assistant manager is also great. They also host great events . People can’t get mad that their clothes aren’t being bought when you have to remember they will only buy clothes that can make them money. If you are in Libertyville, I would definitely give this place a chance!”
