Shoppers were lined up to grab decor and furniture items being liquidated at 1685 Bayview Ave. Saturday morning. The nice patterned pillows we photographed yesterday and shown in the picture were snapped up in minutes.  And business has been brisk all day at the store,  Detail Interiors, as all inventory will be sold. The sale is expected to last about a month. That address is just north of Fleming Cres. and south of  Leo’s Barber Shop. The store closed a few days ago after barely 18 months in business and now it appears the landlord has seized the inventory for unpaid rent. The agents are Danbury Liquidation Services.  Liquidation Notice

Decor and oddities store Oddjects has closed. It’s location was at  1643 Bayview north of Fleming Crescent. It  is now locked and there are few pieces remaining after clearance.  The closing comes less than two years after the store opened.. Oddjects described itself as a company which was located in Singapore and Halifax. Today, however, the website with that information is down indicating that all stores have closed. 

Modella Ladies Wear has opened at 1579 South Bayview in what must be one of the most efficient set ups in recent times. The owner, Tovi Mimran, took possession on May 30, 2012. This means he renovated and stocked the shop in merely 18 days. A posted earlier, Modella is a small chain which is best known to the west of Toronto in places like Dundas and Oakville. Lambert Moo’s Chair on Bayview, right next door, is also sporting a smart new sign.  

The Montreal Bagel store at 1548 Bayview will be open 24 hours a day starting immediately. The unique chewy bagels are a huge favourite in South Bayview, as the lineups at all times of day attest. The operator says there is business for him related to off-hours retail and his wholesale distribution.

The first bushel baskets of new Ontario Peaches and Cream corn are on sale at Badali’s this morning. Time for a feast.
