I always love going into the store when I visit the Jersey shore. variety changes frequently, and the staff there is always so helpful with me finding the perfect items. It is a fun place and you shouldn't miss it on your next trip. read more

My daughter visiting picked up a sweatshirt with price of $58 - Was supposed to be 20 percent off/ on the tag was x 25- 25 bucks extra for the "design " on it. Shady is the understatement of the year. Never saw anyone price an item like this . Never going back. read more

I was just looking and was approached by extremely arrogant employees. They were physically removing children for looking at toys, and I was removed for simply walking around the store. Truly the worst experience I've had in a store. read more

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. The owner was so obnoxious. She kicked my 11 year old out of the store and basically accused her of stealing. I wish I would have read the reviews before I let me daughter go in there. Stay far away from these animals. read more

I went into the store with my children and grandchildren I have never had such a rude experience in my entire life The employees were down right ignorant and rude. The way they spoke to me and my family was disgusting. Two other customers over heard the entire conversation and were appalled. They also walked out and said they will never give them another dollar. We vowed to never shop there again! read more

The service was horrible. I was taking a selfie on my phone and the manager of the store accused me of stealing and was extremely rude to me and friends as soon as we entered the store. Do not recommend read more

The Employees are rude, They act like you're gonna steal from them and they stare at you and watch you the whole time you're in there and make you uncomfortable. I was looking at squishys with my girl and the lady was like haven't you had enough time looking at squishys while she was staring at us the whole time and we just walked out and went to another store cause this was crazy. read more

I have shopped here for the last 5 years and have spent thousands of dollars here. I bought two shirts today and walked home to find one with a hole. My husband walked it back to the store and the owner said "what did you stick your finger through it?" We literally took it out of the bag and I went to wear it as pjs and noticed the hole. First of all if your clothes are so cheap that if I stick my finger through it, a hole occurs I guess it makes sense why you have the 50 percent off sale then $10 sale. You were incredibly rude and all we wanted was an exchange. This is not the first time you were rude either. You have lost yet another customer and we already know you do not care. I have never seen a small business owner like you. You have zero customer service skills. I am mad at myself for spending as much as I have in your store over the years and I promise to never step foot ever in there again. read more

me and my friends were simply shopping and we found a phone on a shelf. We thought someone must have lost it so picked it up and bring it to the front desk. We told the front desk lady that someone must've lost their phone and she proceeded to tell us not to pick up other people's things and then it was one of the staffs we said we were sorry and put it back. This was when we started getting weirded out by their service. She then started yelling at her employee to " watch what we're doing watch what we're buying watch what we're stealing". This lady was insane as we were just teenage girls shopping in the shop. I would not recommend going to the shop at all the front desk lady was probably the rudest person I've ever met. read more

Was just in the store shopping . We had 3 outfits to purchase . And a squishy bear. The owner I believe came over and said I'll put that at counter insinuating that we weren't going to pay for it . Not hey let me take that do you don't have to carry . Know your audience . The other two women were lovely . Nastiness doesn't work . Customer service 101 take the course read more

I was walking around the store with my friends when I picked up a squishy that was on display with the rapper already half off. I did not touch the rapper just squished it a few times and then she came over to me and ripped it out of my hand and told me to put it down because i was breaking the packaging even though it was already broken. She then continued to stand around my friends and I lurking so weirdly. Looking at my friends pockets as if she wanted to steal a cheep squishy from her store. My friend also took a sip of her water and was told to get out in a rude way as if she was going to take her water and dump it all over the floor. I will make sure to never purchase something from this store in the future. read more

Zero stars from me. Three negative experiences. 1) they follow you around like you're going to shop lift, 2) they misrepresent their prices and increase them when you go to pay, 3) and the lady with the head scarf is not nice to customers. I'm boycotting this store. read more

Told my family to get out if they're not buying anything? Get out and come back when you're ready to buy something? Literally psychotic behavior by a business owner. Also said "don't ask the staff anything they're busy" meanwhile they swarmed my family. Would never spend my money at an establishment like this. read more

This store is VILE!!!! Cute stuff,but so overpriced. The owner is a PSYCHOPATH!!!! She's rude and mean. She and the other old women yell at customers especially young kids to buy something or get out of the store. They follow you around like you are going to steal something. Who does that. I had to walk out of the store is was not a pleasant experience So inappropriate. Avoid at all cost read more

Just walked out of this establishment (that we had supported for over a decade) after my wife tried to return a matching sweatsuit set that was purchased this summer but only just worn recently as "who wears a sweatsuit in the summer"? This item was defective and unwearable after the first wash. Unfortunately we were helped by an individual (possibly the owner) who at best was rude and could not have cared less. Wondering if the item is actually real or a knock-off. Will be reaching out to the manufacturer to discuss and will take necessary steps if confirmed as such. Obviously only care about $ versus customers. Should have known that when I saw a tip jar in a retail store. Really?? HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU STAY AWAY. SCARY BAD!! read more

Accidentally walked in the store in a good mood from a really bad week. Just had a fire at my house.. Had a closed plastic Poland spring water bottle in my hand and I got halfway through the store and one of the ladies could not have been nastier. I said I'm so sorry I'll finish it she said No! I said Ok, I'll go outside I didn't read the sign and she said No! Again and then while I was outside she glared at me and straightened the sign.... I'm really sorry for the water. Won't happen again because I won't be coming. Thanks for upsetting me. read more

Staff is here if very rude - In particular the old lady with gray bun. They are old strung out hippies that don't know how to interact with customers. The store is not worth the bad attitude and disrespect read more

This place SUCKS so overpriced and the old lady who runs it is so damn rude she kicked me out for just trying on sunglasses and she kicked me out because she felt "uncomfortable" don't ever go to this place unless that lady retires. read more

The rudeness, the loudness, the insults, the acting like we rule the world and you are just a peon coming in here being permitted to shop if you don't leave a mess. I've tried to overlook this for about 30 years but, it came to head this year and I amongst others are no longer shopping there, especially with their new nasty vicious manager. I love supporting all the stores in Margate and I am friendly with many of the owners and workers. I attempted politeness, which meant nothing. I even wrote very kindly to say I prefer kindness and they attempt to say they do too. There was no response to my letter, reminding them of what happened. I feel they think they deserve to talk down to people whenever they feel like. It's a shame I do like their merchandise. But, I can get plenty of wonderful things many other places. I opened the door for reconciliation, though I'm not quite sure why I did, but basically there was no response because I don't really think they get how offensive they behaved read more

We are fortunate enough to own a house a couple of blocks away from this store, and have frequented it for many years. Just today I went with my mom to check out their sale. I found a cute little $5 bracelet for my son which I picked up before continuing into the second room. I said "'scuse me!" as I squeezed past an employee in an aisle (heavy set middle aged blonde woman with frizzy hair in a low ponytail - only providing the description so anyone who works there can know who I am talking about) but instead of letting me past she stops me and says abruptly "No. Go put your drink and jewelry on the counter I don't want you walking around with it." Now, lots of stores have no food or drink policies, which is fine, but never have I seen a sign saying so at Jamaican Me Crazy not have I ever been told this before. The implication that I was trying to steal a $5 bracelet (worth noting I am a mid-30s attorney and don't exactly present as some kid who may be trying to rip her off) is what really set me off, along with her delivery. The level of condescending is something I haven't experienced since the narcissist I dated in my 20s - ha. Anyway. I replied "you know what? never mind." put the jewelry on the counter as she asked, and walked out. Only giving it two stars because of the previous incident free years. That woman needs a new job. Not customer facing. I will never spend another dime there. read more

Jamaican Me Crazy - how she responds in private. - Jewelry Near Me - Margate City, New Jersey

Today I witnessed a horrifying sight. 4 teenagers walked into the store while i was shopping and looking at sweatshirts. They couldn't walk forward because there was another family trying on clothes in front of them. The owner Roz decided to stop the 4 teenagers and rudely share that they can't socialize and that if they want to be there they can only shop. They had items in their hands and were only talking at a low volume like the rest of the few costumers in there. Very rude service and I walked out right after in disappointment. I will not be returning and neither should you. read more

I read past reviews which were very interesting. I admit when I visited I was on my guard to see if i witnessed any of the same treatment. I was there on a busy weeknight about an hour before closing. The owner actually went out of her way to try to find my size, hunting through out her shelves. Most rows and piles on shelves were in order, many by size and labeling; Ventnor, Margate, Longport. I had only a good experience. One of the items I bought did not fit well & 5 days later, I went to exchange it. They did not have my size after one saleswoman searched the entire store for the size needed. 15 minutes later she went in to the back and came out with 2 last shirts in my size! Awesome - all a pleasant experience. I was happy that all staff wore masks. A basic simple preventive measure. read more

Every time I visit this store, it becomes more clear why it has its name. Within 15 seconds, you'll be swarmed by a salesperson, likely before you've even had a chance to look at anything. And after you shoo the first person away, another comes to take her spot and watch you make your way around the store. It is BEYOND irritating. Even if the salespeople don't speak, they follow you around and watch your every move so that as soon as you pick something up, they can offer to hold it at the register. Aside from these incredibly discomforting presences, the owner is always screaming at her employees. read more

Quality of the clothes are perfect! However when I spent more then ten minutes in this store I was constantly approached by workers asking if I needed help or wanted to try on items. After saying No four times they continued. I felt like I was not welcome to look around. read more

Omg! The WORST customer service EVER! First of all let me start with I love shopping local I've shopped in the store several times and never ever had a bad experience. I stopped in today to purchase an Philadelphia Eagles T-shirt. When I got up to the register to pay, I asked the lady that waited on me. I said do you take Apple Pay? She responded with yes now keep in mind a new law went into affect in New Jersey back in August that is supposed to notify the customer of the 3% surcharge on Apple Pay ,credit cards ,debit cards etc. etc. unless you're paying cash you're going to get that 3% charge on any plastic used for that transaction. I realized once I left the store I looked at the receipt it said $21.17 so when I got home I checked all my phone and I checked my bank and I was charged $22.42 . I called the store to get some clarity on this and she's like oh that's the 3% surcharge. I'm like well I didn't know about it she said there's a sign at the register OK well I didn't see it the first time I've been in the store in quite a while so That being said, the girl on the phone was incredibly rude was talking over me was arguing with me telling me she wasn't being rude. She wouldn't let me speak. It's just absolute worst customer service experience I've ever had it would have been nice if you would let the people know that they're being charged the 3% because as I stated earlier, in this review, I said I was using Apple Pay and she could've notified me right then and there of the 3% surcharge it would've been so simple and clear!!! but guess what I'll never shop in the store again incredibly rude customer service I've never ever had this kind of customer service in any local store and I am born and raised here and I shop local 90% of my shopping is done local. read more

I love this store! Lots of great quality products and I love that they have so many options with our local shore names. I was searching for some Xmas gifts with Ventnor on the shirts and I found everything I needed. The staff was great to deal with also. I'll be shopping here again and again. read more

Just made a great purchase of a new hat designed by one of the staff. Very friendly employees and reasonably priced merchandise. Already received many compliments on my newly designed chapeau. read more

Over priced and poor quality. They run sales a couple x a year but the prices are so high to begin with that 50% off is not a bargain. Bought a long sleeve tee-shirt and it's so cheaply made. Brands are cheap! The sales help are nice but they follow you around and it makes you feel uncomfortable. The vibe in the place is bad. Stay away unless you don't mind paying top dollar for mostly poor quality goods. read more

Stopped in here during our tour of Margate. A cute little shop with a wide array of cheap jewelry, beach essentials, and home decor crap-o-la. Worth a walk through when in town. The funny part was a huge sign in their window boasting EVERYTHING $10 or under, but upon entering, there were more things that were OVER $10. Go figure. read more

See all

Love this store! Always fun to stop by the in the summer and see what they have in stock and if I'm ever in town during the fall or winter, I try to swing by for their crazy sales. The employees are always helpful and walking in there on a summer afternoon has a fun, party atmosphere. I never leave empty handed and my nieces and nephews are always when they get their new Margate sweatshirts every year! The owner is well...different. She's a bit of a local legend. Definitely comes across as a bit crazy, but I guess that's where they get the name. She helped me out for over 30 minutes picking out gifts for my family one time while the store was packed. And if you catch her at the right time, she'll always have some cool stories or insight to share about the community. Definitely not for the sensitive types though! This place is a Margate institution! Don't let the biased reviews turn you away! People always fear those who are different and do their own thing! read more

Wow. I read some other reviews so I know I wasn't targeted. I had 5 minutes to spare before my nail appointment next door so I thought I'd walk in and browse. Big mistake. I was immediately followed around by one girl and then when I walked into the next room, another girl! I told them I was just looking but they followed me around like I was planning to steal something! Not a good feeling. read more

Lots of cute t-shirts and sweatshirts, really comfy, perfect for lounging. All the stuff is super trendy - great gifts for kids.

Staff is extremely rude. Merchandise is over priced and marked one price then more at the register. Owner is rude and will tell you to go shop somewhere else if you bring any concerns to her. STAY CLEAR OF THIS STORE NOT WORTH IT!!!!! read more

Great , great place!!! They always have incredibly, creative gifts and treats. From snazzy signs to pickle ball outfits, we love this store!! Always a fun experience as we are always finding new gifts and products to purchase! read more

Adding another review that was the mess of shopping here last weekend. We were screamed at the moment we got in the store until the second we left by the owner. They needed to close the store for an hour to restock and have lunch. Have they heard of taking breaks? Having people restock during store hours? She screamed at every customer. She was screaming at her own staff. Every customer was in shock. This store had a long line with customers willing to deal with her horrible behavior and still buy. I highly suggest this woman sell her business to someone who might know anything about customer service. read more

Wish there was zero stars. The rudest, most awful salesperson/owner I've met. Terrible crappy clothes

I can't even begin to explain my appalling experience here yesterday with my family. I have been in retailing for 40 years and have never witnessed a store owner that was more rude and unprofessional. We were followed wherever we went and were told to leave when my two year old granddaughter was a bit loud playing in the store. The owner was rolling her eyes behind our back and talking about us to other customers. It may be time to retire when you don't have patience for children in a store geared towards them. I will never shop here again and be careful if you do! read more

Honestly, $70 for a poorly made beach chair? The piece tag was conveniently hidden but other similar chairs were half the price, so of course I thought the chair I was prepared to buy was about the same. Imagine my surprise when the clerk ran through my purchase, and then said he didn't know how to process a return. He instead offered me an "upgrade" - an upgrade that has already fallen apart after one use. Sigh. Yes, it's the summer and in a beach town I would have to expect there to be a mark-up. But this is criminal. read more

My daughter and I decided to do a little shopping at 8:30 pm last night. We went to Jamaican Me Crazy. It's a fun store with lots of kid friendly stuff. Too bad the staff makes you feel so uncomfortable! They are rudely unfriendly and miserable! We purchased quite a few things and if it wasn't all for my daughter I would have left! Hopefully these woman can get happier with their life and find a job that makes them happy...... read more

I have been shopping at Jamaican Me Crazy for over 20 years. This morning at 9:15 AM, I tried to exchange two items I had purchased earlier in the summer. When I purchased these items for my daughter I specifically asked if they could be exchanged and was told yes if within the month. Before I was ever rudely welcomed the owner of the store had an issue with the woman Susan behind the counter about some tubs of items that were really "bugging" her and honestly couldn't have been much rougher with her tone. Well, the tone came right to me at this early morning hour. I told the owner I didn't need to be spoken to in this manner and our conversation just escalated where I walked out of the store. I returned with my other daughter to see if we could find something else to replace the items I bought. When I entered I happen to have a cup with coffee me. And, I was asked to leave the coffee at the front. I said I'd leave it outside and returned into the store. This time, the owner said she needed to speak with me and I said there really wasn't much to speak about other than her tone in which she had spoken with me 20 minutes earlier. Naturally, she pointed the issue back at me which only escalated my tension and I rose my voice so EVERYONE In the store could here what was happening. If you are happy doing business with rude proprietors help yourself. If you like to be spoken to with kindness walk away from this place. #kindness matters. read more
