I was first exposed to Gilt by a friend who knew the owner and worked there part time. I thought the pieces were beautiful and amazing and talked about the shop to my then-boyfriend (now husband!). He surprised me by going in to the shop and talking to the owner and my friend. They both had been there when I was admiring rings so they were able to give him hints/tips about what I had liked. He picked out the most beautiful ring and I love it more every day. I get compliments about it all the time and I love telling people it is a piece of estate jewelry from the 30's. I really like having a ring that is not a cookie-cutter engagement and wedding band set.
Thank you, Gilt for helping my husband way back when... I plan on sending him your way soon... we just moved back to Oregon and just celebrated our 4th anniversary. :)
Pros: Beautiful unique jewelry and expert staff!

I had stopped going to the Red Light for awhile because of declining merchandise. But the past few times I've stopped in, there's been an obvious improvement. The lighting still stinks, but I'm finding gems again at good prices. Super cute dresses especially, for some reason. The Halloween selection is always incredible, too. The Red Light has returned to my good graces!

I love the staff at the buffalo exchange, they are very helpful and always nice. The buffalo exchange has great clothes, shoes, and accessories! I used to buy tons of clothes there but lately as money is tight I can either trade my clothes for cash or trade my clothes for other clothes. I love their eclectic variety and would highly recommend you check it out. It saves tons of time from going store to store in the mall at a third of the price for this month/years merchandise. Plus they also take vintage items. Plus, other stores are in the area so it is convenient (i.e. powell's fred meyer etc).

I love this shop. The people who run it really care about what they do. They have a great selection of baby clothes and other fun gift items. And the best selection of cloth diapers and slings in town!

I love the selection of new items every time I come in > The prices seem more fair than at other consignment shops. I really like that they are constantly getting in great designer goods from around the world.

When near the Montavilla District be sure to stop in and shop at Monticello. You will find an array of very interesting items, including silver, glasware, jewelry, furniture and just about anything collectible. The friendly staff is there to assist you when you need it. Want a break from shopping? Relax at the Mont's cafe located inside the shopping marketplace and get a bite to eat.
Pros: Endless array of Stuff

This is a nice bookstore located right off of Martin Luther King and is in a very historic looking building. The books at Title wave are retired library books and they are super cheap. They have a huge selection with everything available and they won't leave a huge dent in your wallet. They even carry LP's (remember those?) VHS and audio tapes, as well as magazines, books, encyclopedias, even snacks. The people that work there are very nice, they don't keep a record of what they have like a normal library though, that's the only con. This basically looks like a normal library but instead of borrowing, it can be purchased, very cheap.
PROS: Price, price, price! Friendly staff, selection
CONS: No parking

I got the journal I ordered today (5/11/09) and it was in fine shape and well packaged. I prefer not to have the price markings on the inside but that's OK as it's erasable. If you had a rating system, I would be more than delighted to give all 5's/5 for promptness(2 days from Portland to South Florida!), neat packaging, good shape, etc.
Thank you
William M Keller, Ed.D
Pros: Quick delivery;Well packaged
Cons: None
