Nothing to say about the shop itself. It's nice, organised, it has a wide choice of articles of good quality. Absolutely gutted to give 1 star for the way me and my partner were treated by an older employee. We had been wanting to go to this shop for weeks after it being recommended by a friend who accompanied us, sad to see the way some people treat their customers.
My partner was checking out some rubber rings while I was on my phone googling about a spicy card game we intended to buy, until this person approached us quite rudely and asked my partner to "stop doing that", which left both of us quite puzzled. This person kept repeating "yes, but stop doing that" until they referred to the fact that taking videos of the articles were not allowed, verbatim to my partner "you're making fun of these things (the rings, I guess?) while he's filming, no?".
Once we had shown to them that I was simply Googling stuff they didn't even apologise and proceeded to ask in an annoyed tone if we needed anything else, at which point we turned our heels and left.
So, a couple of remarks I really wished I had formulated on spot to tell that rude person myself:
1. My partner suffers from chronic anxiety, she had to run out of the shop to avoid getting an attack, so maybe next time treat people a bit better when you have no idea wtf they re up to. I would have never expected such a treatment in a sex shop, also, as I had imagined they would be quite welcoming places for people to explore new ideas and things.
2. We know why photos/videos are not allowed in sex shops, and I initially did not even get mad at this person's request because I realise that with tourists being around it is something bound to happen in a shop of this kind. But to not even receive an apology after I have showed you that we did nothing wrong is just plain rude.
3. To not be able to distinguish between your local and foreign clientele is your own problem, but I strongly suggest you start approaching your customers in a more well-behaved manner. You lost 3 potential buyers for yesterday and for the future, and you only have yourself to blame for that.
In the end, I bought the card game my partner and I were eying up online, for a cheaper price, and without having to deal with any of this. read more
