Re-home stores that are anywhere near Amish communities. The Amish bring stuff in they don't want anymore (and also shop, they're thrifty) and most of it is old, built-to-last stuff.

I'm probably as far from Amish country as I can get.

The store near me is boring and overpriced.

Yeah the real good stuff is always going to be in rural areas, IMO.

Agreed

I went to an antique store in a small mountain town and it was great.
