While there are many little antique shops in the French Quarter. Many of them are selling high priced replicas. Not the real deal. I go to New Orleans 6-8 times a year and I do a lot of shopping while I'm there.
If your looking for something unique & one of a kind. Ask the locals to steer you toward some out of the way stores that don't have tourist trap written all over it. There's a lot of good shopping to be had in N.O.
Austin has some antique sales that I've been to with many vendors (under one roof). Some good stuff. I believe they do it monthly or bi monthly (don't quote me on it). I'm sure one of their local antique shops can give you some info on it.
San Antonio has some cool little antique shops. One on Broadway within 410. Another I -10 and Wurzbach vicinity.
