Blanquarts Rusty Gem Vintage Market - Belleville (IL)

5 /5 Lyn Clarke: Fun Antique store to browse. My friend and I spent over an hour looking at all the previously loved items from our childhoods. We had lots of fun reminiscing about things we had years ago. The owner was there and she was fun to talk with. We will go again.

1 /5 Shawn Conklin: Got followed around the store by an employee that didnt say anything. Super uncomfortable and disrespectful. I will never spend a penny here.

1 /5 Connie S. Fein: The owner Christine is unprofessional and doesn’t show up for appointments with other dealers. She ties them up delaying appointments for days , and I think it’s deliberate. I wouldn’t trust their auction service either. It seems very shady that it’s a closed group especially for someone with a history of no shows. A reputable auction company is open and transparent with the public. Do not recommend.

4 /5 Brandi Hudson: Its beautifully decorated and set up as a pretty continuous display. Some of the prices in my opinion were higher than I would anticipate and I unfortunately didnt find nearly the quantity of vintage items I had hoped for. But there was a nice selection of local items including jellies and shirts.
