Stopped in here to pick up some cigar accessories, hoping that the prices would be decent. Luckily…read moreI was able to get a cutter, lighter and small humidor at a reasonable price. Some places in Edmonton are a real rip-off, so I'm glad I stopped in here. The gentleman, who I will assume is the owner, was helpful enough....not super friendly but patient. The humidor was well stocked for it's size but nothing exotic or really interesting selection-wise. I'd come back here as it's close to work, but will continue my search for a shop I'd become a regular at.

This is always the last stop on my Christmas List. I like to buy certain cigars, papers and other…read moreaccessories for certain people and I like to buy them fresh. They recommend that if you DON'T have a humidor, then you should buy your tobacco treats at the last minute. Fortunately, I purchased a small travel humidor for hubby last year, so I don't have to worry as much about freshness. Also this year I bought him two kinds of Colts, whiskey dipped and rum &wine dipped, plus Ports, so I won't need the humidor to hide them in. I bought myself some 'Subzero' for my vapor smoker. Nice to get a good menthol- nicotine product finally, and did you know they came in different strengths? The other place I haven't reviewed yet didn't tell me that. Like the first reviewer said, they aren't very friendly, but they do know their stuff. And they're not rude. They just don't smile or joke around. I recommend them for stocking stuffers, weddings, gifts, etc.

Fabio stayed late and was able to meet with all who wanted the chance. We got him to sign the piece we bought and he even did a custom drawing on the back of the canvas. Milan and the owner helped us with all of our needs throughout the night. We will definitely be back for future events and this won't be our last purchase!

I have walked by this store every time I have gone to West Edmonton Mall. I had never gone in…read more Finally, the last time I went to the mall, I decided to check it out. I was surprised. Now, I am not an expert on art by any means but I do enjoy it. This store is wall to wall pictures, paintings and sculptures by famous artists like Thomas Kinkade and Robert Brateman. They have amazing pieces that are just visually pleasing but can also be appreciated at a deeper context. The store is very expensive and regularly holds sales. This is the kind of art that people who can truly appreciate it will lay down big bucks for. I wouldn't mind a piece or 2 in my house either. Even if you know that you aren't going to buy anything from this store it is definitely worth going in and looking around. Looking at the different pieces of art is really worth it. I would recommend this store to everyone.

I went there just this weekend and was VERY impressed with the customer service both my daughter…read moreand I received. We both needed to be fitted and Georgia was very helpful and took her time in ensuring this were done properly. I was also very impressed she did not push the non-sale items on us and, in fact, showed me items that were on sale and encouraged us to look and purchase those items first. You can clearly tell they are not working on commission but they are there to make the customer feel comfortable ensuring we will come back and spend the dollars in the store. The store was neat and clean. While they were OK with a man being in the back fitting rooms, when there was another woman there they did ask him to leave the area so she did not feel uncomfortable. But, there was a chair for someone to sit and wait. The prices are a little high if you don't go when things are on sale but, lucky for me, it's sale time right now!

I've been here a couple times and have enjoyed it each time. It's always busy on the weekends so if…read moreyou're a bigger party make reservations! The staff are friendly and helpful.

My experience started by being shown where my assigned seating was. Next, I went to the shelf where…read morethere was a pretty decent selection of ceramic trees to choose from. I had prepaid via Eventbrite for a $50 tree. When I saw a bigger and fancier tree, I chose to upgrade to the $100 tree. I just had to pay the price difference. After this, I received a brief explanation of a couple of paint options I had to choose from and then I started painting! This wasn't set up like one large ceramic painting class. People came and went at different times. Each group that came in would get separate instructions by the staff members. This worked out because painting times definitely varied. I honestly underestimated how long it would take to paint a ceramic tree. I think I must've painted a total of 6 coats of paint. It's partly because of the paint option I chose. I required a base coat to ensure my tree would come out shiny dark green. It took me about about 3 hours to paint! I wanted to make sure all the crevices of my tree were covered. I did this activity after work on a Wednesday night. It was a fun way to unwind and chat with my friend. However, in the future, I would prefer to do this on a weekend instead. I finished painting right before the store closed around 9pm. It would've been more relaxing if I knew I didn't have to work the next day. Once I was finished, I painted my initials under the tree. I was told it would take about a week for my tree to be ready for pick up. When I was reunited with my tree, I was super happy with the result! The wiring for the light bulb was inserted. Light bulb not included. I also received a bag of multicoloured mini plastic bulbs and a plastic star topper to decorate my tree. Overall, I had a good time here! I would definitely consider coming back to paint something else. The staff were helpful and the products are good quality. I know I could've easily bought a ceramic tree instead of painting one. It might have been less expensive and definitely easier to just buy a finished tree. However, I'm proud to say that I painted my tree!

The challenge was how to move the table! Luckily, several helpful people on social media referred me to Dave's Billiards. Dave responded to my email inquiry promptly and we set up a move/install date. Dave and his co-worker, Martin showed up exactly on time at the sellers house and got right to work. Within an hour they had the table moved to my basement! After another 1.5 hours, they had the table perfectly assembled. Both Dave and Martin were friendly, courteous and easy to work with. They made the whole process so simple and worry-free. Thank you David and Martin for the fine work you do. Both my wife and I were very impressed.

Yes I was in a rush, and tried to pay but the staff manning the cashier is helping another customer. I asked for help from another staff but got ignored. Cashier gave me attitude and said they are understaffed. If you are a business delivering service, priority should be helping customers as this translates into business. Staff is not trained or not willing to multitask. My friend and I left the store fuming, mostly with the staff's attitude.
