    Exterior of Astro West in New York City Upper West Side. 4 Sept 2016 by Lucinda Lewis
    L L.

    Astro West is a fabulous new store on the Upper West Side near Central Park and the Natural History Museum. The owner was onsite the day I went for a visit and he could not be nicer. He is eager to build his business and do what it takes to accommodate shoppers. The store is big and wide, and very family friendly. I would say that for future geologists in the making, this one stop shop is where to go for a great selection. I am having the store check into some items that they didn't stock and am excited that they were willing to go the extra mile for me in today's times where most stores won't bother.

Reviewed the return policy ahead of time, because you know, it's 2026 and customer service is paramount when ordering expensive things online. However the item delivered was not of the "custom" quality described on the website. As a matter of fact, the item pattern matched the images on the website to a T... so clearly not custom. Not only was it not custom, the design printout was of low quality and looked cheap. When an item is not custom and of low quality, it doesn't warrant a custom price tag. I engaged owner for a return within 10 days of delivery, which is outlined as their return policy, and they gave me a weak excuse "we are a small shop" as if to imply that I was rude to ask for a return and hurt a small business. After two email exchange, the owner stopped responding to my emails. Suffice to say, don't buy their beautiful looking lazy susans. They are overpriced, not custom, and are low quality. Not worth a $325 price tag. Avoid this shop and owner. They don't deserve your business.

It made my visit to the Bazaar all the more pleasant. I've been coming to Grand Bazaar for more years than I care to remember, having taken a break for ten -- okay twenty -- years. Can't put my finger on why, perhaps I'm not as interested as I used to be. While the market is vibrant and busy, it's not as it was. Perhaps not as much diversity in wares. (I used to get a lot of pottery, art and vintage jewelry.) Back in the day, my friends and I would go to the East Village and buy funky old fur jackets for a song. I kind of had that in the back of my mind coming here. (There are many vintage coat vendors.) But prices have risen considerably. (What hasn't?!) The market is open Sundays, year 'round. Despite buying nothing, I know I'll be back. (Maybe coats get cheaper when it's warmer.) Plus, I like strolling around on the upper westside, which has a different flavor than the eastside, where I live.

    I was lucky enough to wander across this market and was blown away by how large and diverse it is…read moreonce you enter. There was such an array of goodies from home goods to clothing to candles and more in all price ranges. Everyone was friendly and talkative about their products. I picked up some early Christmas gifts and I am so excited to show my family. I think this is such an easy way to get unique finds for an array of people all in one spot or just to shop for yourself. I heard they also carry some really cute vintage clothing so you can score really cute pieces here in a nice open air space so there's a relaxed shopping experience.

My experience was super fantastic at the Upper Westside location near the Lincoln Center. From the moment I walked in, the store, the atmosphere is always warm, inviting, and beautifully decorated, love the way each area is styled, it's honestly inspiring just to browse. The staff is always helpful, attentive, and available to help you transform your space or home into the vision you dream. I think the prices are great for the value. The selection caters to everything from furniture to home décor. The store itself is spotless and organized, which makes it even more enjoyable to explore. If you are looking to elevate your home with stylish, well-crafted pieces and exceptional customer service, this location is a must-visit. Personally prefer this store or the White Plains location over any other location in Manhattan.

The fact that they don't have reviews on their website says everything you need to know about this company. The absolute worst experience I've ever had dealing with a company after spending thousands of dollars. Maybe hire a manager who isn't looking to do customers or refuses to even listen to people's concerns. Stay clear of their leather goods. The manufacturing is lousy in the material cannot withstand little to no use.
