Guy Next Door The

Incredible vintage selection! I'm really picky with my stuff, I only wear 1930s-50s clothes and I can always find something here. They also have a lot of cool jewelry and trinkets

I have shopped here multiple times and loved it every time.

The best hat I've ever worn in my life was saved and given to me by the owner! Mandy is incredible! :)

We love being neighbours with Mandy at The Guy Next Door! She has some real vintage treasures in her shop - and a hilarious sense of humor.

Fantastic quality, selection and pricing!!!! Super cute!!! Worth the trip to Armstrong.

I'm reluctant to leave less than 5 stars given how excited I was to check this place out, but unfortunately my visit was a disappointment. I was expecting to find a selection of men's clothing, but the vast majority of the shop is actually filled with ladies wear. The few items to choose from were interesting, but I can't say they were particularly nice pieces. The main selling appeal seems to be just the items age, but not the condition (stains, marks, etc) or quality of material. Most of the items I looked at were between $15 and $20. Not terrible, but nothing really stood out as being a great deal.

The actual shopping experience wasn't much better - the shopkeep was quite distracted finishing a conversation (which was still going when I left), so there wasn't much opportunity to ask any questions. There are a number of second hand stores in Armstrong. Unless you're really interested in vintage clothing (regardless of quality), I would be hard pressed to recommend this place. I'm hoping when I come out and visit next year, the selection will be better, and I can leave a better review.
