I use to go in to this shop from time to time when it was on Main Street in Vancouver, I thought it had closed!! Thanks to your video I find out it just moved😅, what a relief since they always had such cool things!

Somebody really did love their dog. That memorial ephemera is very unique. Not many people could afford to have their dogs interned in such a memorable way.. just beautiful.

They had a lot of interesting things. I think I saw some cameos briefly in the beginning before you started looking at the watches. I hadn't considered checking in an antique store for one. Enjoy your trip.

Thank you for this video about this store in Tsawwassen. It's been many years since I've been to Canada. When I would go I would always try and stop at antique stores to see what they had and if there was anything I couldn't live without. Even though there's now a General Sales Tax and a Provincial Sales Tax, I would have no hesitation to buy anything that I wanted. The last time I visited Canada I found that some retailers would fill out a Customs form to show the items purchased they would send the form through the mail, then let you leave with the item. This may still be the case because when I win an auction for an item in Canada I never have to pay any sales nor import duties. My home state, Oregon, does not have a Sales Tax.

Hey Alex. I was an ivory/walrus tusk and whale tooth collector for 40 years. I think what you saw was a walrus tooth which is not illegal. For $110 I doubt is real. May be a composite of some type
