Seaquels, Furniture Consignments, Used, Second Hand, Slightly Used, Ocean View, Delaware
“Sometimes the best treasures can be found in the most unlikely places.”
Some like to cruise the malls; others, like me, are in search of those small stores, boutiques, and yes, consignment stores that are usually located off the beaten path. Finding the words, used; slightly used; and consignment will get my attention.
It was not always like that. I used to think that consignment shops were the discarded items nobody really wanted. Think again, they might have been discarded by someone for whatever reasons, but they are certainly someone else’s treasures.
Consignments stores have gotten very popular. What are you looking for? At times what you are looking for, it is not on your first visit to a consignment shop. The good thing about these shops is that the majority of the owners will be more than happy to call you or send you an e-mail if what you are looking for happens to fall into their hands.
I stopped at Seaquels the other day. It is located at 9 Atlantic Ave., (Rt. 26) in Ocean View, DE 19970. It is about 1 1/2 miles west of the town of Bethany Beach. Tel. is 302-829-8636. You can find them on Facebook. E-mail is seaquels@gmail.com.
Being that Seaquels is a consignment shop, the merchandise moves quickly. In reality you can stop every day and see something new. Never boring; always interesting and fun. On this particular day the merchandise was moving quickly.
The store is owned by two friends, Cindy and Kathy. One or the other is always there. They have about 700 consigners, which is a lot. The majority of the merchandise is on consignment. But, they do have new items like tea towels, rugs, jewelry and Bethany Beach bags.
I took so many pictures. So, are you ready to go shopping?
The entrance
Wicker – For some reason they had gotten plenty of wicker pieces by Lloyd/Flanders who since 1983 has been known for excellent quality. Cushion fabric is suitable for outdoor use.
Art
Stools
Furniture pieces. A sofa, headboards, desk and furniture.
Do you see anything you like or need? Give Cindy or Kathy a call at 302-829-8636. They’ll hold it for you.
Hope you found something…..talk to you later….
Oops…I forgot to tell you. Everything is very affordable. For real.

i wanted to inquire about a white king size headboard I saw in your shop through the window. I spoke to you briefly and I wondered if it might still be available? My son is coming to the
beach tomorrow and he would be able to get it for me, if it is
still available? If you might let me know, that would be great!
Thank You, Gini
