Come to this store if u like pressure and being treated like “if u buy - im here for u, if u don’t - get the f out”. This is just ridiculous.

Writing on behalf of my girlfriend - she visited this store a few weeks ago and while browsing the store’s selection, she didn’t feel welcome - in fact, she felt pressured to buy something or leave the store.Judging by other reviews, the owner of the store seems to have a habit of doing so, especially targeting women.Here’s some advice to the owner: while it is your prerogative to treat potential customers any way you want, first impressions do last.Your responses to negative feedback also raise a major red flag to anyone… Maybe reconsider your approach?Update: wow what an unhinged reply from the owner. Might aswell have a poster in the background of the store saying "THE ABUSE WILL CONTINUE UNTIL PURCHASES OCCUR". The initial 3-star rating was to give you the benefit of the doubt, but it looks like I was wrong.

Seems like great stuff but I had to leave in less than twenty seconds because the music is way too loud.

Love this store. It’s a true Time Machine. Not for the people with the lack of melancholy for the good old quality items times. Love the leather smell inside the store.

I fell in love with that store, if you look at the images I've shared you will definitely want to give it a visit, the accessories, the vintage items such as (leather jackets, bags) were very unique & valuable, the prices are affordable, adding to that the owner of the store has been more than helpful, a very humble man.I highly recommend Abra Kad Abra to any vintage or leather lover

I thought it was a very cool store until the owner started raising his voice at me when I simply asked a question: where did you originally get these pieces? I told him he was being disrespectful that it was a simple question and then he went on and on in front of all his other clients very loudly shaming me.. lol so I leftMaybe he had a very bad day but not a good way to put it out on your customers, wouldn’t want anyone else to experience this!! Avoid this store at all cost. Trust me, I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt this way reading everyone’s comments. He is rude and disrespectful :/ too bad

Was in Montreal to visit family recently and discovered this great shop. Lots of vintage leather at great prices. Also had my ears pierced by the owner who was very helpful & friendly. Really enjoyed my experience and would recommend this place to anyone.

If I could give zero stars I would. I was very dissatisfied with my first and last visit here, horribly rude owner, I was very interested in buying something from here but immediately felt unwelcome…after looking at the reviews i found many people (mostly women) feel this way, and his responses to these reviews are even more distasteful than his customer service. Rather than apologize and invite people back for a better experience he is rude and insulting! I’ve never seen or experienced such horrible customer service in my life.

Discovered this gem of a place while searching for vintage leather boots and bags. Found an incredible collection of vintage bags some dating back to the 60's and 70's. The owner Tony was super helpful and very knowledgeable about his products. If you're in Montreal this shop is a must see.

Terribly disappointed in my first experience to this shop, while the shop may offer interesting items, it is absolutely not worth it with the behaviour of its owner.Not looking to buy? Its owner will make you feel pressured to leave just for looking around by always being on your back.You’re a young female? He will make you feel uncomfortable by mansplaining and assuming you’re « mad » for holding your ground.Let’s not forget to throw in a racist remark about Asian people to complete your experience.

Amazing place. I am from Italy, perhaps the owner still remembers me. I bought an amazing sheepskin coat 2 years ago, an amazing great coat. Ownership, very competent, good eye and taste. Sincerely, a very comfortable and pleasing shopping experience. Actually, I am taking time to say "I need another one!" and I hope to see a re-overture soon to come to check some vintage coats again. 5 Stars from me.
