Grapevine Consignment

Very overpriced and extremely rude staff.
My husband and I were looking for some accessories for a renaissance fair costume. We thought we might have some luck in consignment shops.
The older woman glared at us the entire time we were in the front room and when we told her we were looking for wooden bowls or cups and baskets she said she didn’t carry that sort of thing and basically told us to leave. We were thrown off by her rudeness and couldn’t figure out what we did wrong! We left after only looking at a few shelves of items without buying anything.
We had a small child with us but my husband was carrying him in his arms, so it’s not like he could have broken something. We were quiet and polite… I guess she was just having a bad day. But it sure made me never want to go back there again!

This place has a lot of highly collectible stuff (i.e., glassware) I know nothing about. They also have a bunch of designer bags on consignment for decent (high but very fair) prices. Those categories take up approximately 30% of the store. The rest, however, is surreal in that it feels like someone said, «Hey my rich grandma died back in 1997, do you want to come over and see her untouched barn full of old and new clothing?» My husband and I had a good time looking through it all, but it was laughably overpriced. If you’re costuming a movie set in 1988 – 1993 cast with church/​office ladies, you may have found your treasure trove of hideous clothing. Be prepared to pay $ 25 for a Liz Claiborne dress suit with the tags still on it. We did find a few items (NOT clothing) but I can’t go higher than 3 stars on this store because the best word I can find to describe the service would be leisurely.

They have some interesting antique dishes and furniture pieces, but everything is over-​priced. And haggling is generally not an option. If you want a bargain, you might want to try somewhere else.

What I was looking for was way overpriced.

Great consignment store. some great finds for cheap.
