What a lovely local bookstore! My first visit to Moore Books was for an author talk. When I walked…read morethrough the door the first thing I noticed was how small the space is. They've really made the most of the space though without making it feel at all crowded or cluttered. The selection is amazing. You're likely to find what you came in for on the shelves, but if not they can order it for you. The employees are friendly and helpful, and the store vibe is relaxing and comfortable. They host a wide range of events like author talks and sip n' shop nights. And there's a parking lot right out front. Definitely stop in here when you're in the neighborhood!

The end of May I bought my daughter 2 pairs of earrings for part of a birthday gift. Wasn't sure…read moreshe would love both pairs but was told she could exchange for something else. She went in today to look around & find something else she liked better. She was told could only exchange for 2 weeks. That is a very very short exchange window. I am sure she would have ended up spending more money on whatever else she choose today. She said there were 2 workers & they were so rude to her. Have always found cute things in this store but won't be shopping there ever again. Very disappointed. Wish they had verbally told me about the 2 week window originally when I asked & I probably would have only bought 1 pair of earrings & not spent $100 on 2 pairs as I often have different taste from my daughter. I knew if she came in to exchange a pair she would have found something she liked better. I just don't want others to have the same bad experience we did.

I have seen and heard about Merritt Gallery since I moved to the area about year ago, but this was…read moremy first time going inside. It is an impressive, contemporary space with a very wide selection of art including wall and free-standing sculpture. When asked for prices the range was quite wide from $900 to $50,000 (yes, $50k). Given some of the pieces displayed and artists represented I imagine that range goes well beyond $50k as names like Picasso, Matisse, and Warhol come up on their website. The gallery has three locations and represents around 175 artists meaning that what you see in store is only a very small sampling of their actual collection. Though I always am looking for new pieces for my collection, today I went in to have a small print framed. Caitlin, one of their consultants, ably showed me an incredible selection of frames ranging from contemporary to hand-carved, hand-detailed wooden frames worthy of the Louvre and works of art in and of themselves. Having chosen to forgo a mat (not needed with this piece) and a fairly simple thin frame, the price caught me off guard: $216. While the financial part of my brain said "no!" the artistic side said "give it a try." I paid the fee and was told my print would be ready in about two weeks. Caitlin offered to have it delivered to me and installed which I may take them up on. Conclusions: Merritt is a great gallery and framing shop. The price lowers my rating to 4.5 stars (I'm a budget conscious art collector). The only issue I had was when Caitlin and I went upstairs to figure out my invoice she left my print exposed on a framing table. I didn't think much about it till I had left, but I wonder when/if someone went down and secured the print from damage. This lowers my ranking to 4 stars. Otherwise a good experience.

There were three separate police departments giving away back packs, school supplies, groceries and SWAG. It's great to see the police and the community working together. Now, the bookstore is filled with several titles by black authors, both new and old. There is also a small selection of oils, black soap, and other items. The owner is extremely friendly and willing to help you find any title he doesn't have. I will definitely be back not only because he ordered a book for me, but also cause why not!?! Five stars all the way!

This is my bookstore of choice at West Chester University, where I'm currently taking classes. The…read morestore is very big, so they not only have all of the textbooks required for all classes at the university, but they also have a great selection of West Chester clothes as well. While the store is expensive, they offer a rewards program where you can earn a store credit once you accrue a certain number of points. You also have options when it comes to ordering you books. They list the books for each class online, so you do have the option to shop elsewhere, but when convenience is key, they can have your books ready and waiting for you to pick up in-store or have them shipped to you directly. You can also go into the store and pick out your books on your own. The layout of the books is by class and that can be a little confusing, but they always have a ton of staff available to assist you. Their returns and buyback processes are well run and efficient. They are also very clear and up front about the deadline for returning textbooks, so there isn't any confusion about when a book needs to be back by if you decide you don't need it for a class. There are certainly a lot of options when it comes to buying your books, but it's good to know that if you need a textbook quickly, you have a convenient, well run store right on campus.

They actually had a huge selection, or at least huge to me, as a newbie, who did not anticipate so many options of bundles, each with a different mix of herbs, for various different energy purposes. The woman who assisted me was helpful and informative. She genuinely wanted to help raise the energy in my home. Sold me a wafting feather, as well, and they also had other components needed for a typical smudging, if you don't have them at home. I believe my total for the 2 smudging bundles and a feather, was just over $20. One bundle more than covered smudging our whole house, over 3000sf, incl basement, just to give an idea, and since it was our first time, we kind of went nuts with getting smoke everywhere. * * * TIP * * * Our house smelled like schwag weed after smudging, so beware that you don't do it before having people over or something, unless they enjoy that. And yes, we did it with windows open... 7 hours later it still smells, though much less, and the scent has changed to a pipe-tobacco smell!

(It's really helpful to see handbags and purses in person so you can get a sense of the size and the feel but not many retailers sell Hammitts in this area.)
