We started selling vintage in 2010 on eBay and soon
realized, you know what? We could quit our jobs and do this full-time. So we did!

We started selling our curated selection of bright,
contemporary vintage goods at some of the hippest flea
markets east of the Mississippi, and after hauling our
cookies from Brooklyn to Chicago and back again a few
times thought we’d try our hand at opening a retail shop
right here in Indiana.

In 2012 we opened our first retail location in an old 1920's
pharmacy building in Lafayette’s historic Highland Park
neighborhood. Business was great except one thing:
customers who dig our trendy 80's and 90's merch don't
hang out in Lafayette’s historic district. So we made another bold move: in 2014 we closed our original storefront and opened up shop at the Tippecanoe Mall in Lafayette.

In 2017, we opened our second store in The Fashion Mall at Keystone in Indianapolis. Then in 2019, we opened another store in Bloomington, IN at the College Mall. You can find us at either store selling our hand-picked collection of trendy vintage clothing, furniture, home decor, vinyl records and pop culture relics from the 70's, 80's and 90's. In the following years, you will be able to find us in a few more cities throughout the Midwest!
And yes, we do buyouts of private collections. If you’ve got cool stuff you want to sell to us, get in touch.
