We just got some magnets, stickers, and shot glasses, but he treated us like we were buying hundreds of dollars of merchandise. He gently packed our items and even threw in some Mardi Gras beads. Very limited metered street parking. Paid lots nearby. They don't open until 10am but are open 7 days a week as of November. I would highly recommend this establishment for your souvenir, gifts, local artisan items and Mardi Gras needs.

I even spotted a small Easter decor section. I did notice some pride holiday decor and some ornaments that were same sex couples, though none of color. They did have some representation of different colors. They even had Bernie in his now famous seated position wrapped in Christmas lights. And they had some of my gnome friends on display and for sale. So many variations of nativity scenes, snowy city displays, and just oh my goodness so very much. If you are ever in the area, I would suggest stopping by. Friendly employees, lots and lots of inventory. If you can not make it, just look at their social medias and their website. Freaking amazing. Some items are a bit expensive in my opinion, but I think that most are reasonably priced.

Please stop with the AI slop. I'll buy an overpriced shirt if it was made by a human artist.

I've called and used their website portal multiple times and it seems there's no one there. Essentially, you buy anything from them, you're stuck with it even if it's defective. In August 2025, bought a beautiful premium long sleeve tshirt. Before giving to my daughter to wear, I washed in on cold delicate with a few minutes in a low heat tumble cycle. The gorgeous lettering just flipped off halfway--it wasn't like a corner here or there--it was most of the letters. It's December. The purchase was made in August. STILL NO RESPONSE. Here the FIFTH email I sent to them and still no response: Hi, I've contacted your store several times, using this email portal and via phone calls and voicemail that have gone unreturned. I'm hoping this time, it will get through to someone who can and will follow through on customer service. I come in every year and buy my daughter something special to remember her family vacation. My family has a condo across the street. We've been coming in since the days Ilan and his college age daughter were running the shop. We've been loyal customers. This summer, I bought my daughter an Existing Kids Tshirt in pink with a lovely PK and turtle logo. I washed it on cold delicate partial tumble dry low before she wore it and the letters were flopping off of the tshirt. I contacted the PK Trading Co using this online portal and left voicemail. No response. Another two times, no response. Months later, I attempted to low heat iron the letters back on and it didn't work. I contacted PKTC again. No response. This tshirt is a nice quality and the right color and it isn't wearable. How frustrating. I have photos I'd like to share with you and sincerely hope that someone does respond and make good on this purchase. I plan to update this review IF I receive ANY response from them. If this review hasn't been updated, it's just because there is STILL NO RESPONSE.
