What clients say about The Rusty Pick in Waite Park (MN)
This is another one of the stores that if you're looking for a second hand item and they don't have it it probably doesn't exist. I could not believe the amount of really cool second hand items that are in this door if you're just looking for a place to go look around are you actually need something I recommend going here and checking it out. Everybody that I dealt with in this store was friendly and had little story to go with some of the stuff they owned.
Pretty decent store, there is a lot to choose from. My only complaint is the same for most of these types of stores, overpricing certain items. Examples, 90% of Happy Meal toys are worthless, bagged or not. Splitting them up is uncool too, if the toy came with an accessory, it’s kind of lame to separate and charge for each. Another example, your comics are not worth the price. There are multiples of the same issues and packs, if they were rare, you wouldn’t have so many. Pink Panther is a fine example here, in “mint” condition it runs for about $5. Your copies have rolled spines, folds in the cover, etc. $2 is more like it, and thats too much. Again, most stores do the same, so it’s not a huge deal, but that is why those things are sitting collecting dust. Everything else was pretty okay though, really friendly lady at the register too. I’ll definitely check back now and then.
The vibes of this place are spectacular in my opinion. They've got a great selection and awesome pieces inside and out. Plus I was on the hunt for a specific gift and they had just what I was looking for! I'll definitely be back and will recommend to other people!
Great place to go for antique furniture and odds and ends. I could spend a few hours in there. Well organized and clean. The owners and sellers take pride and it shows.
I showed up with a big request just days before Christmas. The service there made me feel right at home. I was immediately put at ease with quick and creative thinking from their expert staff. Thank you for making my Christmas all the more suitable and special for my loved ones. When you (Todd) were able to drop off the table and chairs before Christmas so that our multi-generational family could sit around the table together (exactly how Christmas is supposed to be) it just made my heart soar! Thank you, Todd. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from my family to yours. ?
The Rusty Pick has some of the most beautiful, unique, antique items I’ve ever seen and at such a reasonable price!
So much so I’ve started a collection of everything I’ve bought. These postcards from over 100 years ago are so interesting and were only $2. This place is such a hidden gem that I always bring out of town friends and family here. It is curated so well that it almost feels like I’m in a museum more than a store. I always take pictures whenever I stop by because there is always something that catches my eye. Thank you for finding such lovely pieces that I can bring home with me and admire. This is truly my favorite store in the Waite Park/St Cloud area.
Very nice place I found many needed items. Spent a lot of money even though the items were fairly priced. Excellent customer service and friendly & talkative. This store will probably have anything anybody could need... lol. It took me a long time just walking around getting lost in the many different displays while having several child hood memories as I wandered about. It would have taken me at least 1-1000 more days to look again at items from A-Z that was displayed. I would love to come back again!!!! Thank you for the wonderful opportunity.
The Rusty Pick was a great surprise! It was my first visit. I met the owners, and they were extremely helpful and friendly. Their vintage and antique items range from fun and quirky to beautiful treasures.
Found what I needed! The clerk was very very nice, and extremely helpful! She got the measuring tape out Every time, when I needed measurements on quite a few table runners. Prices were reasonably fair! The owner got back to me right away. I was definitely impressed!
Took an hour trip just to come here, and very glad I did!! GREAT prices and GREAT finds! The people there are extremely helpful and very easy to get along with. Will definitely be back :)
For me it is an awesome place to buy a little because I support small business. I'm a picker and it helps to see what folks in the know are putting out there. Also gives me great ideas for the future. Definitely recommend for a visit. Bring your check book. Sorry, like when did you do that. Ha.
I love and return to this store time and again. They always have great displays for their booths and the selection always leads me to leaving with multiple items. They’re also handling the current state of things well, emphasizing health and safety, as well as encouraging customers to also check out fellow local antique shops. The owners are always friendly and inviting and the store is clean. I’ll be traveling 2 hours there again soon!
Very nicely organized, great ambiance, fabulous selection of those gone by items... a walk in the past. Prices are very fair. Owner operators are friendly and helpful.Take the time to visit this place, and leave yourself some extra time for browsing. You will want to spend a lot of time here :)
This place rocks! I walk through it and it brings back memories of my great grandparent's farm house. If you like rustic projects, this is a great place to go for the parts. They have complete furniture as well. This is a traditional antique store with just enough rust, to make it special. They also have a decent selection of barnwood on hand.
This antique store has such a great variety of items and they're in great condition! It didn't feel overwhelming and crammed so it was an enjoyable time walking through and getting to see everything. Definitely a great stop if you're going out antiquing!
I love going here you never know what treasures you will find and get grat craft ideas.
Bought the milk gug her and turned it into a stand for my birdbath
We really enjoyed our visit! There are so many incredible finds at this place and the staff were so friendly. My kiddo had a blast! Can't wait to come back.
Fantastic antique store. It is a little out of the way but certainly worth the stop. Very clean and well organized shoppe. Staff are very friendly and helpful. A lot of very nice and unique items. They also have a great selection of reclaimed wood and barn wood. I guarantee you won't be disappointed if you make it to this nice little shoppe.
We loved Rusty Pick! Very fun store visiting for our first time, and bought a few vinyl albums. Really enjoyed the staff who was friendly and helpful. Check them out!
