Don't get me wrong.. I love vintage goods and vintage stores when that is what is intended. I don't think i am supposed to get the feeling that I am window shopping in the 80's while walking around this place but needless to say I do. The air is stale the isles are very narrow, thus making it feel like you are at a fair when you walk by the midway games and carnies nag you to play the game, this is the same thing with the accented people working the booths in the middle, sometimes I just want to tell them no I don't want 5 balls for a dollar and I know I am really not guaranteed to win... Back to those isles and how narrow they are, which depending on my mood sometimes makes me want to clothes line someone just to say I did. But then the inner Raymond speaks to me and Says..... psssss, hey don't do it. So needless to say I have never done it. The only other plus that I have found here is the quality of the people watching.. Man you can tell a story just by looking at some of the clientele that walks around in this place, maybe one day I will stop one of them and ask them for their name and location and I will yelp about them.
The Ups and downs are as follows:
Ups:
People watching
Claw machines around every corner " I love those stupid things"
Close to my house
Downs:
The prices are relatively high and are not outlet deals
Smells funny
Ugly decor
Narrow walkways
Odd store selection
I guess if you are bored and have nothing better to do this is always an option but I don't know that i would make it my first option.
