It's also not hard for me to spend a lot on one of a kind keepsake items. I purchased a really cool motorcycle for my Yelp Friend Jim C. I still miss him especially during this time of year!

Over the past year, the quality of their customer service has declined significantly. Phone…read moreinteractions are abrupt and unprofessional, and on multiple occasions calls were disconnected before my questions were addressed. The most recent interaction the women who answered the phone had a very nasty unprofessional attitude. This can be extremely dishearten if you are in crisis. It creates the impression that customers are an inconvenience rather than a priority. In addition, their selection of 12-step program literature has become extremely limited. Materials that were once consistently available are now difficult to find, which is particularly disappointing for those who depend on these resources. Overall, the level of service and support no longer reflects the standards they once maintained. Based on my recent experiences, I cannot recommend this business and would suggest looking elsewhere for more reliable assistance and access to materials.

Please do not go here. I was walking around the Upper East Side a few days ago when I passed by…read morethis store. It was 5:40pm, they closed at 6. I just wanted to browse for 5 minutes to kill time before a dinner reservation. I walk in, and immediately the girl working the register says "Just letting you know, I'm closing up now." I said "Oh, I thought you were open until 6?" And she gives me the most condescending smirk and says "You've never worked in retail before, have you?" I immediately left. For a crystal and metaphysical shop, the vibes were so terrible. What a weird thing to say to someone, let alone a customer (and for the record, I have worked multiple jobs in retail).

We went to many souvenir shops but this place was a clear stand out. Greeted warmly upon entering,…read morelots of items (there are a lot of things in a close space, so you to have to navigate a bit). Prices were comparable to other shops but had a good variety of items (shirts, magnets, pins,etc.). The man working also gave us two stickers with our purchase and was kind. Definitely would recommend!

This souvenir shop was highly rated so I came here based on Yelp and Google reviews and honestly, I…read morewas kinda disappointed in the selection of clothing. It was the same stuff everyone else was selling, but like less variety. However, I can say their prices were a lot lower than other shops. For example, I bought a pair of pink I Love NY pajama pants for $19.99 in size small. It was the last one. I needed a medium but they didn't have one. I ended up getting it for myself and figured I'd find a size medium in another souvenir shop. Well, I did but the same pair of PJ pants was $29.99! So I can confirm the prices at this store is cheaper (at least for PJ pants). I also ended up getting a lighter for my brother in law last minute and all the lighters by the register were just meh. I bought a lame one anyways. And then just as we left the store, they had all these other cooler lighters in the window on display. Too bad none of those were actually out on the shelves.

They change the inventory seasonally, so this time they had holiday-themed things. I bought a wine bottle ornament for an oenophile friend, a footed teacup labeled "tequila," for a friend who may or may not drink during Zoom meetings (one side of the cup is blank), and fun cocktail napkins. On previous trips I've bought a mirror that charges your phone (for my daughter), and a small lunch tote and matching wine bottle tote for a friend who loves picnics, among other things for other people. The selection is very well curated, the sales associates are pleasant, and the prices aren't terrible. It's perfect for small "hostess" gifts or gag gifts, when you don't have time to run all around town. These are mainly things that people wouldn't necessarily buy for themselves, but are wonderful gifts for others. They have soaps and candles, too.

Recently on a Saturday , I realized I didn't bring the cards I already purchased for my dad for Father's Day with me. I was staying over the night before Father's Day. I didn't want to end up with a drugstore cards. I called up the Paper Source and they would be closing in 15 minutes. I told them it would take me ten minutes to walk over. The employees were incredibly kind and said they would wait. Once I arrived the staff was very patient and I didn't feel rushed at all. I purchased the cards I wanted, some wrapping paper and a lovely candle for myself.

Just received my second order of cards from Dempsey & Carroll; (beautiful, as expected) but…read moreunfortunately, it will be my last. I live in Europe, so a $79.14 order costs me over $155 with shipping and tariffs. As for the price, it comes with the territory - literally - but when the delivery process is so screwed up, and I wind up having to make calls and write emails and letters to receive my order, it's not worth it. As I told Kara, UPS screw-ups are not their fault, but the partners with whom a merchant chooses to work are their responsibility. D & C's mail server weeded out the very civil complaint I wrote, so I was forced to send a letter if I wanted to be heard. I wish them well, but I'm heading back to Smythson's.

The lady working the counter was also really welcoming and was nice to chat with.
