Nice and better than most resale/antique store. We didn’t buy anything, but we nearly got a nice tv stand

I love this place! The associates are lazy as ever especially the tall one that wears a baseball cap with lowlights in her hair. She is the worst. Anyway you could spend the day here and find some amazing deals!

My first time here was yesterday just to see what they had and if there was anything that I couldnt live without, which there wasnt.Ive been in many antique and flea markets in the past and was much more impressed with them than this one.Sure, they have alot of items for sale, but there wasnt anything that was worth looking at, at least to me. Other people may find a few or many things that interest them, I just didnt.

I always enjoy my shopping experience here. Booths are well-designed and accessible. I buy Dixie Belle paint here, also.

I have been blessed to know about Changing Thymes for 3 years now. I was so impressed that I became one of their 250 vendors. This place is awesome, with so many great deals. The place is well kept up and the staff is so helpful! Jodi and Craig are the wonderful owners and they care so much for their customers, Vendors and Staff! It is one big Family! Come visit! You will be hooked and glad you did!

Poor customer service. I found two pieces from one vendor which I wanted to purchase but had no price on them. The women working at the time would not call the vendor and when I asked that she leave her a note that I was interested in the two items, she handed me a piece of paper which I then filled out with my name and phone number and told her I wanted to purchase these items. I never heard back. Very disappointed that a retail shop would do so little to assist a customer or the vendor.

Everything is this store is amazing. Its the perfect place to visit when you need something specific to decorate your home. You can find so many different things and create ideas. The staff are also very friendly and helpful.

Review №14

Always was one of my favorites. I think I appreciate it more around holidays because at this time of year the vendors selections seem so general and not as impressive.Still a good place to spend a decent amount of time browsing. I do like this store much better than the other store on Wilson Ave.

My friends and I usually love to shop here but this time when we went in we were wrongfully accused of stealing or saying we were going to, when we did nothing of the sort. We were given little explanation as to why and it made us feel very uncomfortable to keep shopping because we were being watched by an employee. It never even crossed our minds to steal anything from them and made us not really want to go back to this business again.

Very cool business, staff was up beat and helpful. They have a variety of product pruced to sell. Only thing at would improve our visit would be if they were closer to where I live. Great surprise on our impromptu visit.

This shop used to be a great place for vintage and retro wares, but it has become a thrift store full of chalk-painted furniture (barf) and mass-produced imported kitsch with shabby chic vibes. Probably 10% of the stock is actually untouched vintage and retro now.... A whole generation of nice stuff covered in chalk paint. It is truly an abomination.

Have purchased several pieces of furniture here recently. Also found some great decor pieces. Inventory changes frequently so if you see something you love get it right away. Some of the employees could use some customer service training. Others are great.

Review №26

We had so much fun here, felt like a treasure hunt! Tons of things to look through, and friendly staff. Its worth stopping by to check out if you are looking to decorate your home, or just pick up one or two items. A few things were a bit pricey but most items were quite affordable.

Always great selection and fair prices. I wish they were open longer some evenings. I have to work daily and never have enough time to get thru either store! I can tell you that if you like something that you should buy it because it will not be there the next visit!

I rented a space at the wilson location and thought it would be really fun! However, they decided to change their contract in the middle of my 4 month lease (without notifying me). So when I went to move out, they said that under the new contract I needed to stay another month and pay them another $120 in rent! Even after they were aware that I had not signed nor received the new lease, they continued to enforce it. I was told I need to wait over a month to get my deposit back, but my lease agreement specifically stated I would get it back when I moved out. They had someone moved into my space before my lease was even officially up! Anyone considering shopping or working with this company should seriously reconsider. Ill not be giving them another penny of my hard-earned money. After years of being loyal customers, I will not forget the way I have been lied to and taken advantage of.

This is a nice place to shop and even get decorating ideas. There is always a treasure to be found, even if you only have $5 to spend at the time. I like that they are open until 7 pm so people who work during the day have shopping time. There is easy parking also so that is nice when you are hauling out lots of goodies you bought :)

A while back, my son and I took the bus to Grandville so we could go to Changing Thymes. We stopped at the location on Wilson and made some purchases. Because we were taking the bus combined with walking, we had a large backpack. We loaded it with purchases from the first location and walked over to the location on Chicago Dr. Because the backpack was heavy and my back was dripping sweat from the backpack and the heat (it was 94 degrees today), I felt desperate to set it down and asked the clerk if she could stow my backpack in the customer cubbies. She said its not allowed because they dont want to be responsible for customer items. While I understand this, I said I would take my wallet out and was happy to take the risk, and explained why I really wanted to stow it. Its not like I could simply go out to the parking lot and throw it into my car. I considered exiting the store right then and there; I found the lack of understanding and flexibility disturbing, to say the least. This is a huge store, and to tell someone who comes by some other method than a car that they cant stow a heavy backpack (made heavy by purchases from the other location, no less), shows a real lack of concern for the customer. The only reason Im giving two stars instead of one is because I was very happy with one of the locations. Most stores dont even let you carry a large backpack in, so its not like this is some sort of standard procedure. There were at least three people behind the counter and not a single one seemed to think there was a problem. We will not return. Check my other reviews. It takes a lot for me to leave a 1-star review.

Review №38

When I broke the globe on my little lamp on the counter we decided to come here to look for another small lamp. The one I broke was so cute but it was from a garage sale and a new globe would have been expensive. There are a lot of things to see here and just before we left my spouse spotted a lamp for $14.99. There are quite a few things that are over priced here. I dont think young people today appreciate antiques so the expensive things dont sell.

Great place to wander through! Staff are pleasant and if youre looking for something vintage or re-done youll probably be able to find it here.

Seems like it has become an overpriced thrift shop. The location across from the post office really smells bad. Staff seems like they are annoyed when you check out....not what it used to be.

Review №41

The staff do not know what they are doing. I got my stuff up to counter only to be told I couldnt use my fiances card because his card didnt have my name on it. Very frustrating. Most stores dont ask you for this. Was rude and short when asked well this is our only card we use. All our money goes in this account. Staff again got snarky with reply. When I did go back to get items they were annoyed they had to empty out items again. Like they were so busy and I interrupted their day. The same girl that just wrung up my items asked to see my receipt before loading my purchases in my car. SHE LITERALLY 3 MINUTES AGO RANG UP MY ITEMS. I just was in shock how ridiculous and uptight this store is. Not good customer service at all.

Review №44

Most things are overpriced and customer service is beyond terrible! I purchased a small furniture piece from this store. I called this place 15 times over the course of 2 days regarding my pick up however there was no answer. When I went to pick up the small furniture piece the staff rolled there eyes and and were extremely rude because my wife and I arrived about 10 min before they closed. i will probably never shop here again. Which is unfortunate because I use to like coming to this store.
