Best art gallery in Ipswich, Massachusetts (MA) 2024

I’m an avid antique store shopper and this is the most overpriced antique store I’ve ever seen. If the service was exceptional then I’d be inclined to support the business, but Ann was snobbish, cold, and unfriendly. The owners watched with scowls as we entered, with no greeting. In addition, she wouldn't budge on the unrealistic prices and acted offended by fair market value offers. They were selling some antique stuffed animals for $25 each which go for $8 each on eBay in better condition. I saw an old wicker bookshelf in fair condition for $800. I see nearly identical ones at a lot antique and thrift stores these days for around $200, and at that price you could just get a new one in better condition. They seem to be pricing as if they’re selling brand new, high-end items when in reality they’re not. It’s clear from my impression and from many other reviews, they need to do better research. This store is more of a museum since nothing is priced fairly. If you find something you like, look for it online and buy it there instead. There are plenty of other great antique stores in MA and NH to visit with friendly service and/or fairly priced items. However, Anntiques has neither unfortunately. ~C
