“We recently had a wonderful experience buying a Persian antique rug at Beautiful Rugs. The owner, Moe, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. This is the first Persian rug we have bought and he happily put up with our naive questions! A great purchasing experience and a beautiful rug.”

“I got an AMAZING vintage modern granite table and Henry Miller chairs here that will be in my dining room forever. They were in perfect condition and so much better built and classier than all of the cheap new furniture out there. And the staff is incredibly helpful and worked with me for delivery!”
“Tim’s Baseball Card Shop is hands down my favorite card shop in Chicago. My daughter and I have been coming here together for years, and it’s become one of those places we genuinely look forward to visiting every month.
Tim and MJ are local, incredibly knowledgeable, and just great people to talk cards with. We’re strictly baseball card collectors, and their selection is always fantastic, with a great mix of hobby boxes, blasters, and plenty of slabbed cards to dig through. Just as important, the pricing is always fair and I’ve never felt like they’re trying to take advantage of what’s hot at the moment.
There’s also something special about supporting a true neighborhood card shop run by people who know the hobby and care about the people who walk through the door. After years of visits, it still feels like a treat every time my daughter and I walk in. Tim’s is absolutely worth a visit.”
“After many years of putting off selling estate items I finally decided it was time. I was worried about the shear volume and time it would take but after visiting OCC I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and fast OCC made the entire process. I highly recommend OCC.”
“I absolutely love this place.
Their stock is excellent. Furniture, art, knick nacks, whatever your home desires, its probably here.
We first wandered in because we were looking for a new piece that could work as a TV stand. Our particle board one was on its last legs, and we wanted a replacement that would last.
We found a beautiful rolling buffet with a marble top, and wanted to buy it immediately, but we had no idea how we were going to get the thing to and in our apartment.
The cashier whipped out a piece of paper, and told me to call Bart.
They make it so easy to pick things up, and Bart was wonderful to work with for delivery.
The owners are so cute and make the place even better. We went back and found a second piece, and can't wait to see what is there the next time we pop in!”
“Cannot remember the kind woman’s name who helped me out but I went in one day very distressed and knew I needed an aura cleanse. Whoever was working pointed me in the right direction and I’ve gotten very lucky these past few days with my life and things causing me stress and anxiety and I know it’s because of her recommendations! Her wonderful energy as well! If you see this and maybe remember me, thank you so much! Loved aura spray the most.”
“They have stunning pieces and they prioritize accessible pricing. The owner Jon is also super knowledgeable. I love supporting people who stand by their principles and these guys are the real deal!”
“I felt like I had stepped into a studio ghibli scene! My friend and I were in there for around an hour and a half before closing and regretted not stopping by earlier in the day. You could literally spend hours in there. We will definitely be coming back. The staff were welcoming and kind! One of the best vintage/ antique store in Chicago!”
“Andy is a delight to chat with. He is super chill and has a great sense of humor, but best of all, the way he talks about his mom, his antiques and his joy in helping customers is the BEST. Make sure to stop in soon to his new location. You won't be disappointed.”
“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 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!”
“I am over the moon happy with my new Grundig counsel. I had been admiring Harlequin Vintage through socials for a while and I reached out explaining what I was looking for. Dave responded he just so happened to have the exact piece I was looking for! The sound is amazing. I had used his white-glove delivery service and was extremely impressed! Reliving the sound of music I listened to growing up and remembering my parents dancing....priceless. Thank you, Dave!!!”

“Truly one of the most beautiful stores I’ve ever stepped into. I wandered in by chance while walking through the neighborhood and was immediately welcomed in by a stunning collection of thoughtfully curated art. The showroom features a wide range of antique pieces, all beautifully refurbished and full of history.
Doug, the owner, kindly took the time to walk me through the space and share stories behind each piece.. It’s clear from the other reviews, and my own experience, that Doug shares his passion with everyone who walks through the door. Even without any background in Asian art, I felt completely welcomed and inspired to ask questions and learn. His warmth and enthusiasm make the whole experience unforgettable. It was such a unique and meaningful reminder of how special it is to connect with history & culture through another medium.”

“I used to live nearby & spent many hours in this store. The owners are wonderful! I bought so many collector Barbie’s & a few Gene dolls. I met the designer of the gene doll, Mel Odom at an event at the store, got his autograph. It was such fun! I plan on passing all those Barbie’s down to my 2 granddaughters (ages 16 & 18) when they get a bit older. They have picked which ones they want. I live in cali now & miss shopping at gigis dolls. It’s a great place to shop & I highly recommend it! Wish I lived closer so I could go say hello & get some more dolls! If you love dolls you have to check out their store, you’ll be in heaven!”
“This place has everything from records, vintage audio equipment, comic books and CD's. The owners are cool as hell and greet you when you walk in, whatever your looking for they probably got it.”
