An eyepoppingly eclectic shopping experience

Okay, this is my favorite shop in New York City. and well worth the trip from Upper Manhattan. I have acquired numerous pieces, including a dramatic "Day of the Dead" wooden skeleton sculpture for which we have so much affection that we have named him "Miguel." I've also purchased some simply beautiful and well-priced Midcentury and Danish modern furnishings as well as some one-off art sculptures, jewelry and fun vintage clothing pieces. Not to be forgotten are the handmade jewelry items and other artistan-rendered pieces that make Re-Pop an emporium with something for everyone. The staff here is knowledgeable and the owners are around often, ready with info on provenance as well as adventure stories on acquired items. Re-Pop is a "must stop" for its eclectic, sometimes spooky offerings that will delight the lover of all things interesting and different.
- Pros: Great ambience and I wished this were my shop.

Very unique

RePop is DEFINITELY worth visiting if you're in the neighborhood. It's really like a museum (only like where you can buy stuff). The only drawback is things are a bit pricey.
