Penney Chandler has 2 daughters, 4 grandchildren and the best 2 son-in-laws in the world. Her life revolves around her family and junking which she says comes naturally as her Grandfather was an auctioneer. Penney grew up just down the street of a large flea market in Michigan. When she goes junkin’ she takes her sister and they make a day out of it along with some great memories. She says that her shrinking family has now grown with the addition of our RCPT Family.

Mike is a native Tulsan. He lived in Texas for a decade, where he learned that all soda is called “Coke” by the Texans, regardless of brand. He enjoys old toys, advertising, and Christmas decorations, the kitschier the better. When he is not driving his girls to one of their various activities, he is looking for a quiet place to take a nap. 

Taylor started working at RCTP in September of 2024. He moved from Stillwater to the Tulsa area and began shopping here with his mother which they enjoyed doing together for 19 years. He loved coming here as a kid. Seeing all of the neat items was always interesting but he really enjoyed being surrounded by all of the history. Now as an employee he gets to lay his eyes on just about every cool item and all of the treasures as they come in. Ask for help and he’s the first to jump! He loves talking with the customers about what they are purchasing especially if it's pokemon or coin related.
