I probably tried on every fabric hat in there (straw doesn't travel well) and ended up buying two for about €22 each. Definitely can't find this quality for this price in the US!

Beautiful beautiful store!…read more This place is a ethical products type of store where you can find products anywhere from books to coffee beans and everything in between. The people who work here are really really nice and are always open to helping out. Although not being cheap, this is not at all an expensive store either. It's sort of normal given the types of products that are sold. There's also a really great interior patio that I heartily recommend.

My only frustration was finding some of the same products elsewhere for 2-4 euros less. Everything they sell is focused on sustainability and being conscious about your purchasing decisions, but that doesnt have to mean it costs more, does it?

Walking down the "Fifth Avenue" of Barcelona and happened upon Tous when these gorgeous gemstones…read morecaught my eye in the window. The color combinations stood out as something truly unique and that brought us inside to take a closer look. One thing lead to another and before more than a few words were spoken I was trying on rings and saying "yes I have to have this" to my husband (John V.). Within moments we were sizing the ring and saying "we'll be back tomorrow to pick it up". Service was exceptional from the moment we arrived to when we came back to pick up the ring. The ring was able to be re-sized in less than 24 hours and the woman helping us even directed us to the tax office (very close) and provided a local restaurant recommendation for the evening. The ring purchased is gorgeous and totally me and is my first piece from Tous - one of a kind. Tous has a new customer for life!

The wife wanted a new purse. We agreed in London, that we should wait for Barcelona. It was a good…read morechoice. Lupo was the place to start. It really is the top name for purses in Barcelona. The young lady who helped out did an excellent job explaining the purses. My wife zeroed right in on a cross body purse with unique design features. I needed a wallet. I'm pretty simple in my needs. They had one exactly like my current one, except sized to hold European currency. I'm OK with that. I travel enough it's useful, and it's not that much taller than US wallets. Being just a little taller, their were 4 credit card slots per side, rather than 3. The blue color on the purse was gorgeous. The features nice, and the lambskin very supple. Given the VAT rebate, the price is right there with much lesser brands in the US, in my opinion. We couldn't be happier.

Last summer I was fortunate enough to have my hotel right next to one of the Lupo boutiques in…read moreBarcelona. I purchased two bags, one for myself and one for my daughter. Let me say the style and quality is top notch! I am always complemented on it. The style is quite different than any other bags I have seen and very few stores carry this designer in the United States. I also found them to be reasonably priced. So why the A-OK rating? I have been following their website this past year and saw a big sale. To order online and ship to the United States is virtually impossible. Whenever I tried to check out with the items in my cart, I would get an error message. They wanted you to pay with PayPal which I had no issue with. I did have an issue with them asking me to pay in USD rather than Euros. The exchange rate was horrid. I told them I wanted to pay in Euros which they accepted and I saved over $150 on that alone. Since I was purchasing three bags, there was another bag I wanted in a color that was not offered. They said that they would give me the additional bag in a different color for free if I purchased the three bags. I was thrilled!!! I was also told that I would get a tracking number asap so I would know when my package would arrive. Eight days later I was still waiting for my tracking number and of course my credit card was charged. Emails went back and forth and I finally got the tracking info. The package arrived two days later and to my dismay, the free bag that was promised to me was not included. I have emailed them numerous times. They say they are looking into it but have never gotten back to me. Don't get me wrong, the bags are beautiful but there customer service has a lot to be desired. When dealing with people abroad, they should be more diligent.

While visiting Casa Batllo my partner and I stumbled upon Swarovski and after seeing photos and…read morevideos of people's swarovski trees, we wanted to start a collection of our own and pick up an ornament throughout our travels and holidays. We figured why not swing by and see what it's all about and within mere minutes, I had already found the one I wanted us to collect. Swarovski does a limited edition one every year in crystal and a limited edition color wave as well. I'm so happy with it and it will forever remind me of our trip to Barcelona. Only reason why I'm knocking off a store is that even after buying their premium limited edition ornament and a ring, they still kept pushing for add-ons after us spending almost 300 euros.
