Something Different

If you are looking for the quirky, the odd or that talking piece to fill the space in the corner of your lounge this is probably the best place to visit. Now Paul, Linda and Kevin are based at their new venue at Toton they would love to see their old and new customers and will give them a warm welcome.......then leave them in peace to browse! You'll find those things you never thought you would ever need but now can't live without - Japanese porcelain sits alongside wooden music-boxes; decorative chess sets; brass; paperweights; die-cast toys; brass fire surrounds; African art, masks and pictures; novelty retro-items; Royal Albert, Coalport, Blue Mountain Pottery, Vintage Teasets, West German Pottery, Chinese ceramics figures, animal and human and pretty much anything just a little bit different. With thousands of LP's CD's and singles as well as record players, memorabilia, posters and both CD and vinyl jukeboxes, there is guaranteed to be something interesting on sale for anyone who likes music, from the 50s to the present day! Along side of all of this you will find a selection of Kevin's Sci-fi toys, games and collectables, although you will find a larger selection and also comics, books and DVD's on his website www.ErgoSciFi.co.uk. We have a large free car park which is next to the Tram Terminus. Also on site is a café, a pet and aquatic centre, fishing supplies, mobility aids, dog hydrotherapy & daycare, and holistic therapy. Just around the corner is Bardill's Garden Centre.

I went looking for diecast cars and trucks, and found so much more. They are a great place if you're looking for those I used to have items. The staff..... TOP KNOTCH! Excellent service, friendly staff, small and quaint shop. As soon as you enter the Toton Tram parking complex, look to your left, towards the Japanese Water Garden center. At the entrance from the Japanese Water Garden center look left again you'll see the signs says SOMETHING DIFFERENT. You have arrived. They have items from : records, ceramics, jukeboxes, toys, pictures, war memorabilia, bikes, train sets from yester year.

Always treated me nicely and kindly, a very good amount of stock that you could get lost in with ease, also they have very good back ground knowledge on most items! I would highly Recommend a visit! (Pictures below are some of the stock i have bought from them, apart from the Bow and Rifle)

Lovely quaint place tucked away - a hidden gem of antiques and 'pass me downs'. Some things are hit and miss in terms of quality and rotation but generally it's well kept and has a range of stuff from larger outdoor items to indoor teeny antiques. They also sell Warhammer here and have a small but dedicated shelf to this and believe you can get a discount by buying through them here.
