New Orleans Antique Shops

anybody ever been to any of the antique shops? Which ones are the best to go to? Also has anyone took a large package back home out of State on an air plane? Is this too expensive to do, rather then just having it mailed?

New Orleans Antique Shops

If you`re into antiques, you can easily lose your mind in New Orleans.

Simply window shopping along Royal Street is an unbelievable experience. There is a vast assortment of fantastic items, both in size, scope, and price.

Magazine Street has fine antique shops that are more affordable, but also lovely.

Most shops do ship their items, I`m sure a lot more reasonably that you could ever take on a plane.

I hope you enjoy your antiqueing!

New Orleans Antique Shops

wow thanks for the wonderful input and advise. Figured they would have an array of antique stores. I am sure alot better then what they have in California. Seeing that the City has the look to go with it as well. I am super excited to bring something old, home with me.

I agree with Nawlins%26#39; post. The shops on Royal and Magazine streets were great to browse around . However just because an item is in an antique shop, it doesn%26#39;t necessary mean it%26#39;s old per se or the price tag is justified.

Royal St. is known worldwide for the antique shops. Most of the ';real'; antiques are expensive, but rare, unusual and the street is an antique lovers%26#39; dream. There are also a couple of ';junk';/antique stores on the lower end of Decatur that have some interesting items. Magazine St. antique stores are good, but spread out....it is a long street. AND if you do buy something and have it shipped home, you will not have to pay sales tax on it.
