    I booked 2 tickets for a beginner photography class with this person, mostly landing on this one as…read moreit was the only place to offer an evening option. I didn't dig into reviews or research more; wish I had. The website page when I booked it only had the date, time, what to bring - but no mention of where it was being held other than in Front Royal. (I did not realize that this person runs some classes out of the gift shop he apparently also owns.) A few days before the class, I forwarded my email confirmation (that included the specifics of what exactly I had signed up for) to the email contact (apparently the owner) and said I hadn't received the details for the workshop and could they please send me any details I needed. I was told in the description it states the info would be sent 24-48 hours in advance because it depends on weather. Okay, no problem. On the day of the class, I emailed again; we were about 5 hours out and I hadn't received anything. I received a reply back that there were no workshops that night, there was a class, and if it was the class then I had already received all the info I needed when I booked it and if it's a workshop, check my spam folder. I, at this point, was worried I had paid $90 to a scam or something because this was definitely the correct date. I tried calling the phone number listed but no one picked up. I replied and reiterated exactly what I was signed up for, acknowledging that apparently I didn't use the right word (the owner differentiates between classes and workshops, but they're both mentioned all on the same website page, and my email confirmation says I got a "workshop discount" so this was absolutely not clear). I stated I didn't really understand what was going on but I had no location details, so what was I missing? The owner replied with how offended he was that I thought this might be a scam, didn't appreciate MY attitude, and that he had answered that way because I said "workshop" and HE DOESN'T HAVE THE TIME to specifically look up all the right information before responding. Then he pasted the details from the class page, but inserted the location information as if it had been there originally (it hadn't, and I have screenshots that show he changed it). I was furious, and did not respond because at that point, it would just be to argue and point out that I ALSO do not have the time, which is why I asked my question by forwarding my email confirmation with all of the relevant information I had. We decided to cut our losses and not bother trying to go to the class. This is supposed to be an instructor, teaching beginners, but he was SO incredibly rude, entitled, and condescending I just could not imagine anything productive coming out of trying to meet him and somehow learn from him. And given his attitude and the verbiage on the website, I didn't bother trying to ask for a refund. At least we saved gas by not bothering to go. I really wish I had researched more before booking this; the Google reviews on his little gift shop store include ones that also reference how rude he is, and Yelp was even more telling. (He also apparently likes to argue with any negative reviews! As I'm sure he'll argue with this one, which is why my Google review includes screenshots of the entire thing, minus my personal info.) I wish this could be zero stars.

    They have really cute an unique items. However customer service is a bit challenging. I wanted to…read moreexchange a gift of a necklace that they still have in stock. It was a Christmas gift, but I don't live out here and the weather has been bad, so I know it was a late return. However, the item is still in stock and I had planned to exchange it for a more expensive item plus I planned to buy a $200 gift card for a friend. No deal. No exchange. "Sorry, our inventory system cannot manage it". Even though I like their merchandise (I've spent about $700 there in the last year), I'm not likely to go back.
