Antiques on Main

I have been here three or four times now and I always have about the same experience. The place is clogged and hard to shop — something you expect at an antique shop but this was more than normal. Also I am always taken aback at the candy and chips aisle — and the selling of stickers and miscellaneous new things.
The person tending the shop the day we stopped in was standing outside the door talking to people and didn’t move to let us in — just kinda made it hard for us to get in to the shop. Then she came in and said «Hi there» and talked about the heat. (She was wearing all black — full length pants and a jacket — I would have been hot too!) As I shopped my way past the front desk (the sales person was on the phone with her mom the entire time we shopped) She looked up at me and said «Hi!» Again. I thought — Wow — She is going to great me like I just came in every time she spotted me!
So what it boils down to is inattentive sales person who almost blocked us from entering and then didn’t realize she repeatedly greeted us — and a shop that feels claustrophobic and junky and is hard to shop.
I will probably stop in again when we do our loop of Hasting’s downtown — but I would not drive down here for this shop alone.
