Designer stuff for $3. Can't beat that with a stick. I'll have to go with Paula. New Bohemia is now pretty much a typical SoCo joint, which means cool but overpriced and of course, now it KNOWS it's cool. I seriously loved Rues Antiques, and I cried when I drove by and it was gone. But then, I remember buying a 1920s sideboard from them in about 1997, and the proprietor was retirement age then, so...

I found some great stuff there back in the day, including a vintage leather jacket for $12 (that I still wear).
