A new vault filled with hard-to-find things
By Joan Janzen
In case you haven't noticed, a new business is housed in what was previously known as the Namraw Lumber building in Kindersley. The Vault Collections is owned by Regan Boyd, Paige King, and Brent Code from Eston.
The owners describe their merchandise as a diverse assortment of unique and rare collectibles, including vintage toys, autographed memorabilia, smokers, e-bikes, helmets, NASCAR, hockey cards, clothing and WWII items. The list goes on and on.
"Your article will be two pages long if you list everything in here," Regan said as I began typing. "And he was right." There is something unique tucked away in every nook and cranny of the store.
The owners are currently occupied with their day jobs; however, this venture appears to be a labour of love and passion. They call it a "side project," but it's much more elaborate than most people's projects.
Every item comes with a story and a lot of history. "We've been scouring all over for items," Regan said. "People need to spend time here to look around because otherwise, you miss seeing a lot of things."
Although the interior is filled with everything a man cave would need, plus more, there are also plenty of items for ladies and kids. "There's things you normally can't find anywhere else," Regan pointed out.
The threesome has been working on the building for quite some time and put out the 'open' sign in September. Along with achieving their goal of creating an exceptional shopping experience for their customers, they've managed to transform a former lumber business into an aesthetically pleasing building.
When asked about customers' responses, Regan replied, "Everyone's pretty much blown away and really amazed." Paige described the store as "one of a kind." The Vault is filled with a combination of unique memorabilia and new merchandise.
