  This store is... Yikes... Can't believe it's open. Dripping ceilings everywhere, merchandise all looks damaged, and there's visible mold on the ceiling.

  The place is on the way down the drain. Creepy and dirty inside.

  When you walk into this store, it's like you are walking back into the 1970's - time has stood still in this place. I have never seen a dirtier, grimier hardware store, but if you enjoy exploring like I do, it's worth a visit. If you don't mind getting your hands and possibly clothes dirty, you'll be intrigued by this place. I'm kind of surprised they are still in business considering there is a terrific Ace Hardware about half a mile away! Now you'd think with old merchandise, the prices would be fantastically cheap, but that's not the case. One can only surmise the price of many items has decreased over the years, given the price tags here. There's an original Polaroid Land Camera in the box for $59.95. You can pick these up at garage sales and ebay for barely anything. They have several old cassette players, but they aren't cheap - who would buy one for $39.95? I might if it was under $10.00. On the top of the display case, there's a 1970's AMF bike - this was never a good brand, and at $129.95, I doubt anyone will buy it. There are a handful of baby and toddler toys - all of which are covered in a layer of dirt - most are from the 1980's. And I also spotted quite a few curling irons - circa 1980's, but they weren't cheap. Hundreds of receipts, papers and ancient sales fliers are piled up towards the back. What else - rusty dog collars, a charmingly quaint tape display with great graphics. And believe it or not, there is actually some up-to-date merchandise.
