👍👍 We dropped in here today to kill some time and nearly an hour later surfaced somewhat breathless from all the memories from our childhood. This store is located centrally and there is good parking out the front or in the carpark to the left of the store. Start from the carpark and see the treasures... People often mention time, Great,

    We dropped in here today to kill some time and nearly an hour later surfaced somewhat breathless from all the memories from our childhood. This store is located centrally and there is good parking out the front or in the carpark to the left of the store. Start from the carpark and see the treasures that are strewn about such as the bird cages, bingo board, bird ponds, anvils and more. Inside, you`ll find a vast range of items that are in original antique condition and other items that have been restored / semi-restored. For those into retro, vintage, antique or industrial wares you will have a brilliant time here. There are chairs, tables, bookshelves filled with books, crockery, old tins, kitchen items, cutlery....oh the list goes on. Highly recommend you take your time because there is so much to see. There isn`t really an order to it other than you need to keep your eye out for those little treasures above and below your eye line. I was intrigued by the collectable toys in the cabinet at the front - took my right down memory lane playing at my grans house. I opened up one of the map drawers to find a treasure of photos, maps, prints, music sheets and more. Staff are helpful. Kid friendly if they are careful. Not really wheelchair friendly. As mentioned above, good parking. Enjoy.

    1000s of old records from estate sales and garage sales that were brought for a bargain but are now way overpriced. Owner has no idea how to grade and price secondhand vinyl. I have never before today experienced a secondhand dealer that would not consider negotiating a price. It was almost like the guy didn't want to sell anything. Avoid this rip off business.

    By far the best 2nd hand vinyl collection in Melb, maybe even VIC. All sorts of interesting knicks and knacks. Definitely worth a check

    Love this place so much! Michael and James are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I’ve worked with them for a while sourcing pieces and fitting out a store with timber and furniture they’ve sourced and treated. Always have a great time here and strongly recommend having a look!

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Lost Ark Antiques, it was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was transported to a world of timeless beauty and captivating history. I cannot recommend this place enough! If you're looking to step back in time and discover treasures from the past, this is the place to be.

    Great range of antiques. Some can be had for cheaper elsewhere if you know what you're looking for. I'm mostly into vintage electronics but there isn't much of them.

  • 5/5 John K. 2 years ago on Google
    Great range of vinyl records at a fair price. Excellent customer service with James and Michael going out of their way to assist with what you're looking for. Should be a must see destination for all vinyl collectors particularly if looking for rarities and hard to find vinyl. The guys are more than happy to keep in touch if they source anything from your want list.

    Have purchased several furniture pieces from Lost Ark and have found them to be of very high quality and very reasonably priced. Michael is extremely knowledgeable and has a story to tell on each item he has sourced and restored. If you are looking to buy furniture that will stay in your family for generations then consider Lost Ark before Ikea.

    Stumbled across a rare ottoman and also found some reasonably priced floor vases that I use as planters in my garden. A very nice young lady who worked there pointed them out, she seemed knowledgeable about everything in the store, goes to show, age isn't everything!

    Great variety of goods and well organised. Owner very helpful and friendly. Well worth the visit.

  • 5/5 Faith T. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing selection of antiques, vinyls, art pieces and furnitures. What an absolute gem of a spot to hunt for the perfect one-of-a-kind pieces. The owners are so helpful and friendly, will definitely be my go-to place for antique shopping!

    Second time that I come to this place, and simply because I enter speaking over the phone in ANOTHER LANGUAGE I was told to finish outside my conversation, absolutely lousy owner. I'm an avid antique collector but to this place will never come back AVOID IT

👍👍 Been here a few times over the years and it never disappoints. With a cornucopia of vintage items to look at see you will be wondering why you didn't put aside more time for this activity. The main building alone will occupy at least an hour of your time if you're just browsing in a cursory fashion....
