The Relic

Such a cool place! If you’re looking for some interesting vintage stuff this place is the place for you! I walked in here and was amazed by all the things inside. Everything seems like it has come from some movie set and there are tons of different random finds. They are a little expensive so don’t expect to find something here with some left-​over cash. Interesting place to wander around or just take some fresh ta def instagram pics of old stuff. yaaaa know.

I have visited this shop several times and every time I find something great at a good price. If you do not mind getting your hands a little dirty than this is the place to find some real hidden treasures. I can’t wait to visit again.

Everything and anything!
Ill admit some things are $$ but not to bad.
lots to look at and they have cleaned up (per bad reviews) to view items.
Beware of area.

Part 3 of the San Fernando Blvd. trip. Now this place I walked in and wow so much stuff! Awesome stuff on top of that, I walked around and found this suitcase record player, I closed it and the sticker said 50 $, it looked like it needed alot of work and was seriously not worth that price. I walked away from it, and continued to look around, and that’s when I found it the giant vinyl collection, there was no price or anything on them so I was seriously confused how much all this costs. I looked through a few then I just said this is way too much for one person to look through, so I left the vinyl collection. I kept looking around and didn’t really find anything I was interested in, just a bunch of old stuff that’s ridiculously out of my price range. There was this kid who came up to me and asked if I needed any help or if I was looking for anything which I thought was really sweet and nice but I wasn’t interested in anything this place was selling until I came across this awesome goofy toy. I expected it to be 2 – 5 $ at most! I asked and the guy told me he wanted 20 $. 20 bucks! For a freakin goofy toy! WHAT IN THE WORLD, I gave it back and left, but right before I left the kid said to come back the next day, and that I could get it for a super cheap price. I said thanks and left. The only good thing about this place was the kid and his service, but I’m not coming back for any of the products. From their vinyl collection it looks like they don’t sell many, so I’m thinking they’re probably really expensive and that’s why they have so much. Definitely not coming back anytime soon. Once they figure out their pricing, then I’ll come back.

Overpriced crap strewn all about, no real sense of order, and cluttered aisles making it difficult to pass. If that wasn’t bad enough, the condition of the record/​vinyl section was so ridiculously bad that I just walked out without even trying to browse. How does the owner even expect anyone to bother looking through those precariously stacked piles of what will most likely be horrible records in horrible condition?
Bottom line: I will never return.

I always find it here. The layers of assorted odd bits goes on and on and on. I have thought I scoured the place for every pair of vinage boxing gloves only to see four more pair the next day. If you dont see what you are looking for ask! Edgar is super helpful as well as being a great guy.
The fellow who put up the bike review cracks me up… you’ll see what I mean when you see the bikes in the back room! They are all project bikes to say the least. Nothing there pretends to be anything but as is.

This place is full of interesting stuff from doors and windows to concrete mixing machines to WW2 Radios to WTF is this … and contrary to Francela’s experience
I have found this owner operated business to be quite a helpful resource when I am in need of something and operating on limited resources. His prices are negotiable and he is willing to barter. If you are not in Sun Valley and you’re wondering if they might have an item … Give them a call.

They’re known for selling bikes and used «goods». I traded my schwinn road bike plus paying $ 120 for a hopper bike, which was not better than my bike but the appearance fooled me. I took it for a cruise and the brakes failed me horribly and I got into an accident with a vehicle. The next day my arm was numb and i was in deep pain. And on top of that the bike was completely ruined, so I walked miles to return it, and when I get there, I asked for my money back and they said that its against «store policy» but that they would repair it and fix THEIR mistake, so three days later, I return and I receive the bike and again the brakes do not work properly, so frustrated I sent a friend to ask for my money back politely and they denied it. So fed up, I decided to take an adult with me, my brother. We walk in and he’s yelling at me and making a scene. Rude comments and gestures, and he also said «people die daily from bike accidents». And I could blame it on the bike company BUT there is a «handy man» that supposibly knows about bikes, yet he could’nt properly install simple brakes on mine. Their service is plain crap. The only reason why I got my money back was because we said we would report his thrift store to the city.
