Hickory Creek Antiques

I stopped by recently to check out the selection of Christmas décor and was disappointed that there wasn’t much. I have to admit I found this surprising at the beginning of December!
I have generally had the best luck finding glassware and dishes here. Some things are vintage, some things are antique, some things are refinished/​repurposed. The owners/​staff are SUPER nice and helpful. There is usually a homemade dessert in the back for customers to enjoy.
I love stopping in here, but the inventory turnover isn’t very fast. Some of the prices are geared more toward what a collector would pay than a casual shopper.

This is our first stop when driving south from CT along I-​95. This year we noticed they have expanded into another store in the strip mall. The owners are very friendly and the husband likes to schmoozz with the customers. We just stopped in a few weeks ago and were offered homemade cookies and cake along with coffee. What’s better than goodies and antiques. We always seem to find a few things in here.

The owners were extremely friendly and most helpful. Yes, it is a place where a lot of folks rent space, but it is nicely displayed, very clean, and has a lot of variety. I liked that all of the booths sold older things. Like the earlier review said, not everything is a genuine antique, but the things are at least «vintage.» I’ll go back!

This is a consignment store made up of a collection of items from different sellers– each seller gets a space to set up with whatever they want to sell in it.
I took a look around here today, and I was a little disappointed in my experience. Antiques are supposed to be 100+ years old., and while all the stuff in this store was old, but I’m not sure it was all antiques. In fact, I saw a whole collection of old telephones that looked retro/​vintage but not «antique.»
For me personally, I think the prices in some of the sections were outrageous. I could buy furniture in the same condition at Pass It On in Lakeside for way less… The furniture in many cases had some normal wear on it, so why it was being sold for hundreds of dollars is beyond me…
The store itself is huge, nicely laid out, no items are definitively broken, and there is a bit of variety of things being sold– lots of glassware and old clocks and lamps and plates and vases and then tons of furniture from all eras– but the big thing for me is that the pricing seems off. Either the store owners aren’t coaching consigners on reasonable pricing or folks out in Ashland are willing to pay a lot more for used stuff than I am :)
