Review on Larry's Antiques by Tim Jones

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Explore a variety of old relics before they're gone

Ok you guys, here is my review about the company Larry's Antiques that sells on Ebay.

This was my first order with them and I have to say that some of their items are very overpriced.

But on the other hand they do list pictures, measurements which definitely helps when making a choice.

They even state in their listings if an item has some damage or not which is great!

Packaging- 8/10 - Good way to make sure your vintage furniture arrives safely, especially heavy pieces like this one.I bought this antique buffet from there.

It arrived in 7 days after purchase by DHL Express which surprised me because it usually takes longer for bigger items to arrive form China.

I was very happy that it arrived undamaged and we started assembling right away, the only thing is that I had to supply my own wrench and screwdriver (which they don't supply) but these aren't expensive things so no big deal there.

Even though this buffet looks great in the pictures on their site, once you receive it you notice some details like color of woodgrain isn't as bright as shown etc. But for me personally, I liked the vintage look better than if it would've been more perfect looking with brighter colors.I wanted something special and different for my new dining room and I think this buffet brings just that!

Besides that we had some troubles during assembly because some of the screws were stripped but with a little bit of creativity we managed to fix it.

Overall, I'm happy with my purchase from Larry's Antiques and would recommend them based on my experience.

It's always a difficult situation when one is accused of theft, but if you're innocent and the allegations are false - it can be a very rewarding experience to have your name cleared. This seems to be true for Larry from Larry's Antiques in this review who was recently exonerated from recent theft allegations. In his interview with reporters after being cleared, he said "I've been in this business for a long time, and I've never stolen anything," He went on to add that these people were just trying to slander his name. Hopefully going forward, we will not hear any more about such accusations against him or anyone else at his store.

Pros
  • Experience the story behind each antique, collectible, and treasure
  • Receive professional knowledge with every purchase
Cons
  • Local antiques store thriving after recent theft allegations.
  • This company is not doing well after the accusations The owner, Larry, is denying this recent allegation
