Congeries Consignment

I cannot attest to service received after a purchase, or any dealings with Shaun, but I must commend the customer service we received from Blythe and the other lady at Congeries. We visited Congeries a few minutes after visiting The Raven where we were neither greeted nor acknowledged during the 45 minutes we spent there. Upon entering Congeries the ladies smiled and greeted us. After a bit Blythe checked in on our progress and eagerly answered our questions but was not pushy. The other lady was equally as willing to assist us. Although we did not purchase anything this time I guarantee we will surely return to Congeries and NEVER to Raven.

Love this place. We purchased a Mid-​Century Modern glass coffee table. It took us three visits to decide. Every time the owner and staff were accommodating and never made us feel unwelcome.

A long time consigner here. Just spoke to the owner Shawn (woman), my 4^th time following up on an item that was consigned nearly a year ago. I had been in the store 3 times looking for the item and each time she told me «It’s here somewhere!» Today she told me that she has too many items to keep track of, and also, that doesn’t believe me I came in during the 90 day time frame. I guess she has too many customers also! With new consignment shops opening in the area every month, that might not be a problem for her much longer. Try VALDEZ, the art store near Cam. Marquez that has also become an indoor flea market. Nicest people, Amazing prices.
p. s. Just for fun, read the «not recommended» review. One of her buddies trying to un-​do the damage. Fortunately, it didn’t pass Unilocal’s sniff test. LOL

I just moved to Santa Fe and needed a new house of furniture. The staff acknowledged us when we were the first in the door and we were greeted. While I saw some things I was considering purchasing, I paused to tell my friend that I needed to go to the bathroom after shopping at an other place and waiting for this place to open. My friend asked in my behalf and was told there are no public restrooms. I was surprised and said this was a disservice to customers, especially women like me that are getting on in age and things don’ t work the same as when we were young. She stated that their toilet cannot accommodate public use. We left quickly and found a place to go, and proceeded to two other places in town, spending almost $ 900 in furniture. My friend is a long time resident of Santa Fe and confirmed that other places are nicer. One of the other shops stated they were aware that this shop has a toilet issue. Why doesn’t the owner just fix it and get their customers to stay longer? Don’t come here if you need to stay hydrated because you will have to leave quickly. It was a bad experience for a new resident here and now my friend forbids me to return to buy anything here. I’ll wait to see if customer service and convenience is improved before returning.

Congeries is a treasure in the world of consignment shops. When shopping for furnishings for an historic adobe home in Santa Fe we wanted a combination of fine, fun, functional and funky — Congeries has it all. In addition, the inventory is tastefully displayed in a clean and spacious historic building (fun in itself). And the icing on the cake is the gracious and helpful staff. We keep going back every time we’re in town just to see what’s new!

We were out of town ladies with a college freshman who happened upon this fun
& interesting place. We all loved the jewelry & collectibles. All of us found clothing
We had to have, & thought it mostly reasonable. We thought the owner & help was
very friendly and patient. They even researched a restaurant to help us find a place to eat. Definitely would go back!

I make trips to Santa Fe every 4 – 6 weeks for business mixed with pleasure. I always stop in to see what is new at Congeries and am never disappointed! I needed a french farm table and matching twin beds on this trip. Get prices, atmosphere, friendly staff. Rebecca is always a breath of fresh air. Knows the inventory, what is where and cost.
The owner Sean is always welcoming and works with me on letting it hang out a day or two while I arrange moving it to Tucson. I have never had anything but professional and courteous service. My designer friends from other parts of the country call them to see if they have that just right, unique piece. They send photos, descriptions and disclaimers on any damage they are aware of. They are also always very happy with the service they receive.
I love shopping and browsing here. It is always a welcome home to my city that I left in 2000 to be closer to family.

I have just had one if the WORST experiences I’ve ever had with a piece that cost close to $ 700. When I went to pick up the piece my friend who was helping noticed that the panels were about to fall off, at that point Sean asked if I want to «Reconsign» the piece. To do that would be to lose almost ½ of what I had paid for it, so Sean had told me if I’m unhappy I can bring it back & «reconsign» it.
We moved the piece into the truck & to my house without ANY difficulty as it was quite light. However, upon setting it down all the back panels & one of the side panels fell off piece by piece in a domino effect & we noticed the post was rotted, completely cracked & broken. I immediately called congeries and it took over a week before I got a response. By the time I was able to speak with Sean the owner, she said to send her the receipt & at that time she said she «usually» recommends a professional moving company, but she was doing me a favor by letting me take it.
After another week + she said she could not reimburse me ANY amount & said she recommended a moving company, which she did NOT & also that she asked If I wanted to return it, which she Did NOT, there is a witness to both of these statement being False.
I cant believe I received such abhorrent service being such a loyal Customer & local to Santa Fe.

In French, congeries means an aggregation of dissimilar items. This consignment store definitely has a wide variety of wares — ranging from textiles, clothes, furniture, art, and more. A large hanglider suspended from the ceiling is dwarfed by the size of the warehouse, which has some items grouped by theme. There is a room for sports paraphernalia, one for kitchen items, and on and on. I left my first visit with a gorgeous bejeweled bolero. A must visit if you are looking for vintage and eclectic finds! Prices are somewhat reasonable, furniture slightly more expensive.
