Found some cute salt and pepper shakers for a good price! Love going there, but finding a place to park is a nightmare!

The staff here is very helpful. Although its fun to just look around, just ask someone if you are looking for something specific.

I admit, it is really big! A LOT of stuff to look at! The only thing for me is that it isnt an antique store more than a re-sell store. Dont get me wrong, there are plenty of ancient artifacts around. Also, the prices for most items (I feel) are too high. Still....a nice place to browse, because you can find a hidden gem!!

They are one of my favorite places to spend an hour or two leisurely strolling amongst all the treasures of times past. My favorite things to look for are tea cups and cast iron, and I have made so many wonderful purchases here.

We called ahead to make sure masks were being enforced and were assured they were. No one checked if we were wearing our masks or others entering. I watched the employee behind the counter look at a woman without a mask on and then look over at me. He said nothing, just averted his gaze. We booked it! If youre looking for somewhere safe to go antiquing during covid, I do not recommend this store. Further, you cannot trust that they will answer your questions truthfully.That said, theres some neat stuff! We ran into some folks who are selling their stuff and they were wearing masks and were friendly. Nonetheless, we will not be returning.

Love Eighth & Main Antiques! My happy place! Lots of room to roam and actually see the items. Items are fairly priced and turnover is high. Vendors do a great job staging their stalls: often with a seasonal theme.

Review №25

In some ways this is a great place. Pros it is huge and beautifully laid out. But the Big Con in my mind is they are not careful who they rent to. In the back is two or three booths working an antique glass scam. They force newer leaded glass to go lavender and sell it as turn of the century. Which is is not. It makes me feel like I couldnt trust any of the sellers. Sorry but I wouldnt buy anything here.

Tons of antiques and collectibles. Two levels and two buildings. Great place with nice people. Parking is kind of a pain but it is downtown Chico. Lol

This is a fun place to visit and has many sellers and many things to look at. Even has a back room with other sellers. All the people seem to be very helpful and answered questions. They say each month they get new items and new sellers so its a good place to come back and look again

MASSIVEINCALCULABLEIMPOSSIBLEIMPERCEPTIBLY LARGEThis place is YUGE with a giant selection. A great place to go antique spelunking, browsing or just to spend an afternoon. My mom and I had to literally take breaks from this store to work though all the stuff, and thats a good thing.

This place is great to wander around and hunt for that special item you didnt know you needed. I suggest grabbing anything you see and might want because it wont stick around. I still cringe when I think of the item that got away

Huge store covering the length of the city block. Rare items, awesome antiques, plus shabby chic and more. They even have almost 200 pair of Cowboy Western boots in stock, and priced low too, AWESOME !

I love going to this store because theres always so much of so many different things. If youre looking for something, but you dont know what, they have it! That being said though it can be pricey. Similar things in different areas have significantly different prices because different employees price differently.Im into knives so heres my example. I bought a knife a few weeks ago in the back warehouse, the lady was super helpful and nice, and offered to show me other spots with knives. There was one hidden spot I didnt know about upstairs in the back left of the main building. The knives there were over priced and the $35 knife I bought wouldve cost double in that case. There was even a newer pocket knife that was priced higher than it was brand new.That being said, the store has two large sections to it and a small outside section. Main, outside, warehouse.The main building has A LOT of stuff. Its two stories. It is almost impossible to see everything thats in there. So my advice is look everywhere.I recommend looking everywhere in the outside section because you never know what youll find, and even if youre not looking to buy any of the stuff, its still cool to look at.The warehouse building is where you can find really old stuff that isnt necessarily flashy. When you first walk in it doesnt seem like there is much going on but once you get farther in you realize there is a lot more. Just like the rest of the store you really need to look in every corner to see everything.

Great experience! I needed a pair of boots for an engagement tonight. I sent a message via fb asking if the boot guy was still there. Marc responded yes and asked what size I needed. They happened to have my size. When I got there, the boots were up front waiting for me.I love shopping like that! Kudos to Marc and his staff!
