    The image shows the interior of Macy's Backstage store in Elmhurst, NY, featuring shelves stocked with perfumes, skincare, and beauty products. The store has a modern industrial ceiling with hanging lights, and checkout counters are visible in the background. The shelves are organized with various brands and packaging, and customers are seen shopping and waiting in line.

    Cashier was unprofessional and dishonest. My friend and I after paid she tend to forget an item that was already charged. The item was behind the glass screen at the counter, so we weren't supposed to reach it because it was a cash register area. I asked her to give the item to us and she acted like she gave all to us but didn't. I had to point out and told her that item was belong to us. I have no idea what wrong with her. The reason why I didn't give lower star was because another staff help out and the stuff, they sell was interesting and the price point was good.

    How about a getaway?

    What a wonderful addition to Queens Place. Macy's Backstage took over the old Daffy's location. Although the have the same concept I actually prefer Macy's Backstage over Daffy's any day. The prices here are significantly cheaper. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the cleanliness and the bags displayed oh so neatly in the left hand corner. I'm a sucker for cleanliness. Throw a bag or two in the mix and I'm all yours! I was pleasantly surprised with the aesthetically pleasing presentation of products. So pleased that I went downstairs to compare their prices to DSW and came back up to MB to purchase a makeup bag for $6 cheaper. One thing I'll have to say is that there's no sales associates walking the floor to help you should you need it. You're left alone and not harassed until you check out.

    Ordered a mattress & box set on 11/10/18, and the next available day was two weeks away. Okay that's not that bad right? I accept and wait the two weeks. Today, 11/24/18, the mattress and box set NEVER ARRIVED. Yesterday, I received a text message confirmation saying it would arrive today early morning. I look up the order number and it was CANCELLED. Received 0 emails about that. Called off my morning shift to be home, ready to accept the shipment. Turns out their vendor never shipped it to them Wasted my morning & now I'm 1 hour on hold, trying to set up a new delivery date. My new delivery date is on December 8th, another 2 weeks from now. Now l'll have to continue sleeping on the floor for another 2 weeks, that's a month in total. Thank you so much Macys, I know I can rely on you guys ! Never again. "The merchandise you have ordered is promised for delivery to you on or before 11/24/18"

    Signs are not always correct here but you can figure stuff out yourself

    Do all discounters of major retailers have to distinguish themselves from the original by using lighting that makes you look a vampire, and even worse, a hollow eyed one who hasn't had a bite for days? If you can handle grey lighting that seems to suck the vitality from you, then this can definitely be a place for bargains. You can get the rosy flush back later, when you realize how much you've saved. I don't have much patience to do discount shopping, so I usually run in to a discounter that has atrocious lighting with the intent to look for a particular item, and dash back out if I don't find it. Here, the inventory display, along with the lighting, would give me a migraine within a hour. The racks seem to be placed in an unorganized manner. Many racks have so many clothes jammed on them that makes it difficult to look through for sizes. I picked up an exercise top only because it was hanging on the end of the rack and it happened to be my size and looked cute. My strength had already waned and I didn't even bother to look for another color. I was in here looking for sneakers and after a few minutes checking out the racks, gave up! On another occasion I came in to look for a coat and once again, only tried the one hanging on the end of the rack. If you are sturdy guerrilla shopper, go for it, because one lady on line told me they have splendid bargains here. She even told me they have Coach bags and other expensive handbags for cheap. Queens bargain hunters are friendly and like to share their money saving tips! You can find much of the stuff here you find at the regular Macy's a few block's down--active wear, shoes, jewelry, housewares, except these are past seasons and I guess stuff that didn't go even at clearance. Staff here, as one Yelper stated, seem to be slow handling transactions. They are however, quite friendly and pleasant. The store itself doesn't seem big but is jammed with merchandise. If you like deals and don't mind plowing through tight racks, prepare yourself by getting caffeinated and dive right in!

    This shoe store, right down the street from my apartment, is owned by a classic shoe salesman right…read moreout of the 1960s, and he has been nothing short of AMAZING to me and my husband. He and his assistant are diligent about fit and are totally willing to spend whatever time it takes with you to ensure you leave with boots or shoes that fit like a glove. Do you have a broad, wide foot like me? Well, they'll go find you a wide and/or only recommend styles with a roomy toe box. Do you have long, skinny legs like me and my husband? Well, he will find you styles that run slim in that area, and is also totally willing to add extra holes to the straps so your fit is absolutely perfect. Slim feet, muscular calves, and any other fit challenge you may have will be considered if not solved by this dedicated, friendly fitting team. The owner of Simon Shoes is so successful that he now has five stores: two in Queens, two in the Bronx, and one in the city, on the Upper East Side. Give this store a ring and ask which location the owner's at before you go. He is usually in Ridgewood on Sundays, and I should know. I was just in there this afternoon, asking for business cards to hand out to the half-dozen female co-workers I'll see tomorrow who love the crap out of the three pairs of boots I've bought from him in the past year and want to come by themselves. Simon Shoes: what more could be said? It's fun to shop at. It's staffed with friendly, caring salespeople. It has an impressive collection of fashionable women's shoes at rock-bottom prices (and a smaller selection of men's and kids' shoes for equally unbeatable bargains). It's...ah, screw it. Just go!
