What People Are Saying About Decades Vintage Clothing

Citysearch

The Scene – Occupying the space (and spirit) of the former Garp's Mercantile in an old brick building in the heart of downtown, Decades is brimming with vintage clothing and artifacts. Unlike department stores, there are no carefully arranged displays and merchandise isn't presented in any particular order. You never know where you might encounter a turquoise blue purse or a fuzzy cow-print skirt. – – The Goods – Vintage clothing, shoes and accessories cram the store. Decades also has one of the largest selections of antique hatboxes, hats and suitcases in the city.…

Uhh

by whatsherbucket

They do have an awesome selection of EVERYTHING... Nothing here you can't find somewhere else with a little time to search.

I held my baby while browsing and I thought he was going to ask me to leave by the way he watched me and paced back and forth. I guess they either thought I was stealing or they were nervous that my kid would slobber all over their stuff... either way - it bothered me.

I spent quite a while searching for an outfit and I feel like that made them even more suspicious of me.

PS - I just called and asked what their hours were. All he said was "We're only open 'til 6" but the tone he said it with meant, "Don't even think about coming in, we're only open for 30 more minutes and don't want to deal with you"

I was hoping they were just having a bad day...but... seems that's not the case.

Why do you own a store if you don't want people to shop there? BOOOO!

  • Pros: Cute cat!

Selections Great For Costumes, Owner Needs some Manners

by Kive

Any period piece after 1900 you're doing, you can make costumes here. However Everything I've heard and experienced there has indicated that the owner isn't very nice. He was quite rude to me and my friends, has followed us around, and treated us like theives when we were actually there, and about to buy something, when he wouldn't just let us be human beings, so we, out of spite, left without buying anything, and we would only go back if we really needed costumes for a movie or photoshoot, and if we couldn't find it elsewhere first.

  • Pros: Costumes, though not cheap
  • Cons: Owner needs some Manners

Owner is Very Very Rude, clothes are overpriced.

by LucasKane

The owner looks like Perez Hilton (the blogger) and he acts very self righteous and entitled to everything in the store, like it's his own personal collection of rare star wars collector glasses or something. His clothing selection is nice, but nothing the DI can't brag about better. The owner is terribly rude, and frankly it's hurting his client base. Being one in many social circles hurting one customer who dresses eccentric hurts us all, and I'm sure without whomever actually funds his store behind him, he'd be out by now with how his attitude is towards people.

Serious just go to the DI or Thrift Town, because they at least treat you with dignity and respect, and they're prices are cheaper.

  • Pros: Going to the DI instead
  • Cons: the Owner
