Hmmm... Interesting stuff. It looks like just an open house garage sale plus some artsy-fartsy feel to it. I think I might as well check this place out when I arrive in town.
I used to like this place, especially for the music they put on. However the last time the sales guy was really disturbing: he was drinking beer while having a buddy visiting him, he completely ignored me and when I asked for help he said he didn`t f`n care, he went to the door to smoke a cigarette while he was watching me wait around for my receipt (which I dared to request). I bet his favorite movie is High fidelity. However this attitude only works as a charm on the big screen... (Hope store owner will get to read this)
I've been there today looking for some shoes. The shop is actually called "Szputnyik" now (website: http://szputnyik.eu) and offers lots of clothes and accessoires ranging from vintage to pieces of well known labels. The prices are reasonable.
