Trying to find some place in upstate NY

I'm reaching out to the board community for some help. This is a probably a REALLY dumb question but I've been failing miserably at finding this place again. I've been hunting up and down google maps to find this place again and I figured I'd take a stab at asking here because I cannot remember the name of this joint:

This summer, I was driving through upstate new york. I was with the girlfriend and we were doing a bunch of antique shopping and comic shopping. We had started just hitting almost any antique shop we could find between Utica/Rome area and coming back west on I-90 before going down to Erie. We would get off the interstate periodically and hit a few antique shops and comic shops before continuing on. I don't recall when exactly we found this place but I'm really trying to find my way back.  

We happened across this little antique shop in a small 4-6 shop strip mall. There was a smoke/glass shop on the opposite end of the strip of 4-6 stores. They had like a small outdoor tent area with antiques as well. Inside the antique shop were a bunch of rooms with a few dozen different vendors set up kinda. It was somewhere between an antique mall and a consignment shop. There were a few little sections/tables throughout this place that had comics. Mostly dollar books. Some 90's stuff. Some modern variants. It looked like they were from different vendors too. I couldn't quite figure out exactly how the place worked and I didn't buy anything at this place. But it seemed like whatever you bought, you took it up to the front of the store and they would ring you out at a central cash register. 

I also recall that there was a side room that had a little bit of vintage toys as well. But this place was still like 80% antiques and furniture and vintage stuff.

I'm trying to make it back there because they had this antique thing i wanted but couldn't fit it in the car during that trip. And now I've completely forgotten where this place is. 

Can anyone help a brother out? I know this probably isn't super helpful. But I figured I would reach out to you fine folks because all of us nerds have found a billion of these little antique mall/micro-vendor comic sources over the years and someone else might have a clue what the name of this place was and where it is.

 

Thanks in advance,

Dok
