<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 317441, member: 36"]Two antique stores here closed up shop, and the jewelry and junque store isn't doing too well. The antiques center north of here is now half shabby and upcycled furniture. The antique store closest to me is now mostly furniture and rugs; the smalls area is...small. The general auction houses are still going, but since I don't go to live auctions I don't know how well or for how much longer. There's only one traditional antique store with cases of stuff left, and it's a bit of a hike and the hours can be a bit erratic on weekdays. They're right off a highway in an upscale area and seem to be doing OK. The owner also run estate sales and he's a pretty decent guy. Estate sales have become thinner on the ground too, and lot of the so-called estate sales are really moving sales. The church sales are going away too, slowly, and one synagogue closed down. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think it's everywhere, except maybe Florida and Arizona.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
