I love this place, they have women's clothes, purses and in a small area it has yarn and wool, and then in a larger room is supplies for farming and horses. The place is amazing when I go I'm there for at least 2 hrs, so much to see. Great place for gifts for kids up. Price range isn't too bad. Anything and everything for horses, blanket, shoes, bits. Now clothes are priced high but they do have sales.

Backbeat Books and Music

Backbeat Books and Music is a locally owned store in Perth, Ontario. We specialize in new and used books, vinyl, CDs, turntables and audio gear. We carry new turntables and related accessories from Pro-Ject, Rega and Music Hall. At Backbeat we also have guitar strings from Sfarzo USA, mics and headphones from Shure and, yes, you can buy those little plastic 45rpm adapters at our store too. We are focused on providing a book and record store experience so we do not offer any online shopping. We are a real store where you can browse vintage records, maybe take a listen to one on the turntable, grab a book off the shelf and have a sit on the couch and a bit of a read. We hope that when you are in Perth you stop by and enjoy some time at our store.

We visited and shopped this week in the lovely historical town of Perth. This collection at Riverguild of small momentos, cards, art, locally crafted sheepskin slippers hats, mitts, great selection of jewelry, mugs, and all manner of gift ideas is 99 percent made in Canada and 100 percent well chosen items. We a bought stunning felt handbag and wallet made by the artist "Anais" who happened to be working at the store that day. She was gracious and kind and took some extra time to chat with our 11 yr old about her creations! We also purchased a beautiful medical grade washable Ontario sheepskin for my senior father as nothing is as comforting or healing to rest on. So happy to finally be in a gift shop not drowned in things made in other countries then slapped with a Canada symbol to trap buyers. Please visit this store, support Canadian artists and artisans, you will love your purchases. Lovely store.

This is a fun, interactive shop with lots of good-quality games and toys to try out. It's locally owned, and the service is awesome! Just the other day, my mother-in-law ordered a gift for my daughter and it showed up at our door SEVEN MINUTES later! (World record!?!) When we called to thank her, she was baffled: "But I JUST ordered it!" Sooo much better than a big box store or mega online retailer!
