We have been using this store as our go to when we need presents for a birthday or other similar…read moreoccasion. As the parent of an elementary school student, we typically go there quite often. The manager, Nancy, is very sweet and a whiz at wrapping anything in the store. We are members of the rewards program and have made use of many $10 rewards certificates. This business has two locations, Westport and Stamford. We like to support local businesses and have chosen to shop them despite some lower prices at cheaper chains like Target, Walmart, or Amazon. We achieved a $10 rewards certificate just prior to the local school closures and statewide lock down. Clearly, during the lock down and the pandemic as a whole, we have done our best to avoid crowds and low ventilated areas. There have also not been ANY birthday parties since March. Today, we took the opportunity to venture into the store to get a present for a close friend (again, no party). After completing our shopping, with Nancy's help, I was astonished to learn that my now expired reward would NOT be honored. I tried to call the corporate office three times to speak with "Nick", but I was sent to voicemail each time. During the pandemic, I have been given extensions on airline miles, travel points, hotel reservations and various other rewards, coupons and now expired benefits. On their website, this company has a tab that claims to support local communities. If they truly want to support communities, the policy of not honoring rewards that expired during the pandemic must be scrapped. The day after we shopped, Nancy called me personally to say that she had spoken with corporate to fight for the customer rewards. Her persuasive efforts apparently worked and she reported that, the next time I come to the store, my expired pandemic rewards would be honored. She is great at her job and I hope she is treated as she deserves to be.

So I was trying to buy a dumpling, u know those viral ones. And then Kevin came up to me and said…read morethat the dumplings were all glitter dumpling, u know those viral ones. So I bought a lot because the glitter on are really rare, and sell for $100. But then when I got home I opened them and they all were the white ones the least rare ones, u know the viral ones. And I went to return them because I got scammed, and then they didn't let me. Then Kevin came out and said too bad 4 who? Too bad 4 u! So I said grown ahh man btw. So overall I think it was a horrible experience and I definitely don't like that cringe cornball Kevin. 1 star for Kevin's performance, 3.5 star for everyone else's performance.

My four children and I visited the store while traveling through the area. Three employees were…read moreworking. One employee (maybe the owner) was behind the counter, two other employees were stocking. No one spoke to us. We passed by them multiple times to get around to the other side of the store. No one said a word. My son was looking for a specific new item. We found it, only to find that it was marked THREE times higher than regular retail price. $50 collectible cards were priced at $150. $6 packs of cards were priced at $15. I was under the impression this was a toy store, not a price gouging collector's showcase. We will happily spend our money elsewhere.

I know that a business has to stay in business which means that they have to sell what the people demand but a few more tasteful options would go a long way.

RC cars are designed to break in certain areas to prevent other areas from getting damaged, and ordering parts and repairing the RC cars and planes is a HUGE part of the hobby and an important learning lesson for kids. That being said when I went in there were only kids working the shop, but one of the gentlemen/kids was pretty knowledgeable. I think for what it is this is a good shop with a variety of things to offer. A 1 star review about not being able to use the bathroom is just rude and should not be warranted. I also thought for the stores location being in a upscale neighborhood the prices are decent. Also, about 3 years ago I stopped by with my younger brother and they let us drive the RC cars around in the parking lot which was fun.
