“Theresa is very friendly and makes you feel comfortable. She has an amazing collection of top designer brands—Chanel, Hermes, Gucci, Akris, Brunello, Fendi, etc.. I will definitely shop again.”
“Such a charming spot with great finds. Carol is fantastic and helped us find what we had our eyes out for and then some! Walked out with heavy hands, will definitely be coming back!”
“Great place to find good quality like new and new items at a fair price. Great selection for woman, man, children, household and entertainment items etc. Also they can attempt to sell your personal items in their store also. Definitely give this place a try cause you will not be disappointed!”
“I love stopping in to see Gina, the owner. She's so nice and always takes a few minutes to visit. She has a beautiful selection of gently used clothes, shoes, jewelry, and accessories. A great place to shop if you need a special outfit.”
“I needed mismatched champagne glasses for a bridal shower and literally couldn't find them anywhere!!!! Thankfully my neighbor recommended I check out Dishfunctional and thank goodness I did! The employee there helped me pick out pieces that worked beautifully together and everything was very reasonably priced. If you're on the search for thrifted dishware or glassware, this is the place to go.”
“My daughter and I love being consignors here, as well as shoppers! You can always find a great deal going on, and the clothes are never older than the last few seasons and in good condition. There are lots of times we find brand new items for well over 50% less than retail!”
“I am an artist and a big fan of history. Everything about Life’s Patina brings these two things together. From the property to the events, it’s like stepping back in time, and yet, there is an effortless modern efficiency about it all. It’s family owned and you can TELL. Everyone cares deeply about you and oozes gratitude for your presence on their property. Their barn sales are always super well staffed and organized, the retreats feel like a true break from the real world- I can only imagine their weddings are a dream. I’m a fan for life!”
“Went in looking for blue jacket and Gary really helped me find a good fit. He was really nice, helpful, and I highly recommend if you are looking for any accessory for men I would go there. I will be going back there any time I need anything.”
“I love this place !!!! I always find something , and Read (the owner ) is the best! She hand selects only amazing items, check it out, you won’t be disappointed!!!”
“Love this store. I am not a great shopper but when I need a special outfit this is the place I go. The sales women are always so helpful and sincere. The owner is always willing to go out of her way to help find the right outfit. It is my go to shop.”
“The best of the best ~ you know you are in for a treat when the decorating of the exterior of the barn is just as stunning and unique as the interior. This is an absolutely charming shop! There are three floors of beautiful, one-of-a-kind offerings in the barn from repurposed vintage furniture to candles, wooden signs, hand painted seasonal decor. The vision and imagination it takes to create/paint each piece of furniture requires a lot of talent ~ and you will not be disappointed. The owner is a very friendly, lovely lady who was working on new pieces when we arrived, the barn is exquisitely organized, and the prices are better than reasonable. This is a definite for revisiting ~ over and over again ~ it's worth the trip!”
“I don't know how to express my gratitude for The Velvet Shoestring and the staff there, particularly Jackie and Stephanie. Without going into too many details, I'll just say that these folks were incredibly kind to me and my Mom. These perfect strangers went out of their way to make something happen that blessed my Mom in a major way, and I'm so grateful for them and their kindness. I've always recommended them to my friends who were looking for quality furniture, and I've now been on a major personal campaign to tell even more people :) ... I hope their business continues to grow and succeed. Thanks, everyone <3”
“This is a great shop! They have limited hours and since I'm not in that part of the state often, it took me months to finally get inside! It was worth the wait! The staff (or they might be volunteers) are always friendly and helpful. The items are displayed beautifully and everything is clean. It's fun to find something that you never knew you were looking for until you spot it!”
“This review is long overdue ... About six years ago, my daughter was shopping at retail stores for a prom dress, finding nothing (affordable) that she liked. A customer overheard us, and suggested that if we were willing to drive out to Skippack, there was a store that could almost definitely help. I looked it up on my phone - we could get there, but we'd arrive about ten minutes before they closed. I called the store, and the owner agreed to stay open late - just for us.We drove out there, and we were not disappointed. At first, I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of merchandise available, but the kind owner spoke with my daughter for a few minutes, disappeared, and returned with three dresses. All three were viable candidates, and my daughter picked one of them. The price she charged for the dress, matching shoes, and a clutch was a mere fraction of what we would have paid for the dress alone at a retail store.This is not a typical store. If you browse by yourself, you may have a very difficult time finding what you're looking for. I would seriously consider making an appointment in advance. But the payoff is huge; the owner knows her stock extremely well, and customers should leverage this.”

“Awesome selection of Items, especially Star Wars. Video game selection was awesome, as a manager of a retro game store, the prices were accurate and all the items well maintained. The Owner/Employee who helped us was extremely kind and helped us find items we didn’t even know they had! Amazing experience. Glad we came here”
“This store is so amazing. My teen daughter wanted to try Plato's closet next door and we fell love with both stores. As a plus size women I often struggle in second hand stores but this store is so well organized. It is stuffed with merchandise and it takes time to look at everything but the ladies here work hard to keep it well organized by categories and size. So many purses and shoes and accessories. We were lucky to catch a 5 dollar bag sale so we filled that and then found some other items. My husband even found something from their Men's section. And there was a 90% off a lot of jewelry when we went.”
“I love Surrey consignment shop. I have found all sorts of decorative items, jewelry, gifts, as well as great furniture for my home. Liz, the manager, and the volunteers that work there are so friendly and helpful.”
“We have consigned many items here and turned around and bought clothes there several times as well. I think they give a fair amount of money for the items we have consigned.”
“I had a great experience! I had a quote from the FP website and went to KOP to drop it off. They took me immediately and inspected and authenticated the bag in about twenty minutes. It was a smooth and easy process.”
“My wife loves this place. Great for 2nd hand designer clothing. The quality is usually very good. A large selection of woman’s clothing and accessories and a small men’s section at the back of the store. You obviously can consign your designer clothes and if they sell you get paid at the end of that pay period. Note your sell price - % off for the consignment”
“This Plato’s is by far the best in the area! So clean, amazing prices and they always give me a fair price for my clothes! Cannot recommend Plato’s exton enough!”
“This place is such a gem!!! You can really tell how much care, creativity, and detail is put into the curation of every piece of clothing, every accessory, and every knickknack. Normally these kind of stores only exist in the city, so I'm so glad to have discovered one so close to home! I was able to get my absolute DREAM, authentic leather, perfectly worn in, vintage 1970s boots at an amazing price, all thanks to the owner who gave me a great deal and made my dreams come true! Will be coming back on a routine basis from now on :)”
