We really enjoyed this little shop. The set up is quirky, the cats have a lot of character, and there are a lot of other cute pins and magnets and such for sale as well. There are almost no prices listed on anything around the store. We found these awesome ghost cats upstairs that we were excited about, but couldn’t find prices. All the prices we found later were listed on a sign at the front counter. When we finally saw the prices and realized how expensive they were, we decided to put them back. Generally I don’t pick up and carry things with me that I don’t intend to purchase - but the price listed was a lot more than I had anticipated. Having more information about pricing around the store would be helpful for setting up realistic expectations. I respect that handmade items cost money and I couldn’t anticipate the time it takes to make each ghost, therefore I won’t comment on whether the prices are reasonable - but they were more than I was willing to pay. So overall, cute little shop, expensive items, lack of signage and pricing. But I’m still glad we visited.
Not cheap. My daughter bought a ghost on a swing a one off. Unfortunately the chain of the swing broke on the way home, we didnt expect that. There were no phone number to ring so I had to email instead. Due to us living 40 mins away it wasnt practical to drive back. But that wallet a problem. We got a full refund with proof of the damage. Absolutely brilliant customer service. These things happen and we will be back! We will bw back, 1 little mishap won't put us off x
Went in, saw the AI Art on the walls and walked straight back out. Edit: This part of my review is edited to respond to the reply, I didn't miss the Ghosts that were hand made, but your use of AI art is the tragic aspect as you could of easily of had a sale out of myself and my other half, but you choose to be lazy and as "an artist" I would of thought you'd understand, I'm even more glad I never gave this place my money.
Pricey and not vfm. I believe the term handmade is a stretch, possibly hand decorated would be more accurate? It seems like resin from a cast. Anyway I did not buy anything as I felt it was not worth 33 pounds for a small resin ghost.
Nice little shop with some lovely little items on sale. My issue is that they don't seem to have prices on anything, meaning it's a complete surprise how much something is going to cost. Also, if you have children with you, be very mindful that this is quite a small shop that takes a bit of navigating if it is busy and it has some fragile looking items on sale.
