    For context, I rate products and businesses on a simple scale: 5 stars means I love it, 4 stars…read moremeans I like it, 3 stars is okay, 2 stars means I didn't like it, and 1 star means I hated it or think it's unsafe. 5 stars earned here. Wits End in Clifton Park is a really neat, very expansive store. Every time I go in, I feel like I could walk around for an hour and still not see everything. They have all kinds of decorations, and if you are looking for unique Christmas ornaments or special decor pieces, this place is absolutely worth checking out. It is not just seasonal either, there are gifts and decorative items for all times of year. They even carry clothing. The prices are not cheap, but the store has an upscale aura and I personally do not mind paying more for items that feel unique and well chosen. It does not feel like a big box store, it feels more like a specialty shop where you find things you would not see everywhere else. I have heard people say the staff walk around and watch customers closely. Honestly, I can understand why. The layout has to be a security challenge, there are multiple rooms, different levels, and even an upstairs. I would imagine shoplifting could be an issue in a store set up like this. For me, the staff have always been friendly and helpful. I actually wonder how they keep track of where everything is in a place that big, that alone is impressive. Around Christmas time it gets very busy, which says a lot about how popular it is. I usually make it in about once a year during the holidays, but you could shop here anytime for unique gifts. The only thing that feels a little off putting to me is the number of signs about broken ornaments and being charged 50 percent if something is damaged. I do understand why they have them, a lot of people do not watch their kids closely and accidents happen, and adults break things too. Still, seeing the signs all over the place does change the feel a bit. That said, it definitely does not stop me from coming in. Overall, I really enjoy this store and always find something interesting when I visit.

    I've been going here every year for probably 6 years for Christmas shopping. I purchase ornaments…read morefor my family. This is the first year that they not only removed the price strip on the ornament tag and replaced it with a higher sticker price, but they also now charge you for the BOX THE ORNAMENT CAME IN. I also noticed they jacked up the price of some of the more affordable jewelry. I like to support local but next year I just will not be able to support this business and will purchase online from somewhere else.

    WORST customer service experience I've ever had. A week and a half before our wedding the suit for…read moremy 6 year old nephew fell through and we went to Jos A Banks in Clifton Park and asked if we would be able to get a suit in time. They told us it would take a week but they could do it. They measured him for over 30 minutes and had him try on jackets, shirts and shoes for another 30 minutes. They assured us that when it came in if there was anything that didn't fit they'd be able to fix it right then and no matter what we'd walk out of the store with a perfect suit for him. The suit came in and was so small he couldn't even try parts of it on. They told us the only option was to remeasure him and they would overnight a suit to the store and bring it to us because we would already be at wedding events the next day. The man there was extremely rude to me throughout the process. The next day we got a call saying oops the suit never shipped and wasn't going to come in at all that day but not to worry they would drive it to us the day of the wedding! We were very upset. We were promised a bunch of options would be brought to us to ensure he had something perfect to wear. The wedding day came and they showed up an hour later than promised (only 2 hours before pictures were supposed to start). She brought only one suit and 2 shirts. The jacket was HUGE on him. So her solution was to use a dozen safety pins to pin it to his length. Those safety pins poked him through the whole ceremony and caused him to cry and have to be changed into other clothes immediately. The pants were so huge he looked like a clown. The shirt was so big she just rolled the sleeves up a bunch of times. They could NOT fit a suit on this kid after a combined 2 hours of measuring and making him try things on. They could NOT meet any deadline or promise they made to us. And they ruined our wedding day for a 6 year old boy who instead of matching the wedding party like intended had to be changed into his shorts and T-shirt for our wedding and photos. And worst of all they could NOT have been rudder or more unprofessional throughout the process. When I say we were actually laughed at when we voiced our struggles that is just the tip of the iceberg when it came to the terrible customer service. We returned the suit and told them how absolutely terrible he looked. Everyone at the store made it clear they did not care at all. All of our wedding guests, wedding venue and vendors were so disgusted by this they are guaranteeing us they will never use this company ever.

    Went in 2 weeks before a wedding and asking if I was too late. Jay said "no, well help you out…read more "Spent 600$ on suit 2 shirts and 2 ties with alterations. Explained to jason that i wanted the suit to be slim fit when he was fitting me, he told me "it wont be skin tight but it will look good". Saturday before wedding he calls and tells me its ready. I go in on Sunday and Desiree is there, I try on suit and I'm unhappy. Jacket is too wide and pants are not slim fitting, Desiree says shell put a rush on alterations and have it ready for the wedding the following Saturday free of charge. Tuesday the manager calls and tells me they cant do full taper on pants before wedding but will take in from waist too knee around the thigh, bring in the jacket from the sides not the back like Desiree marked and to drop off for the rest after wedding (suit will be ready Thursday night). Friday i come in and Jason says bring in suit after wedding and they'll do all the alterations. They didn't do anything and suggested that I am lying because he was standing next to manager when he called me Tuesday and that they wouldn't do alterations without payment. Also told me Desiree does not know how to mark alterations!!!! Then why is she in store alone on weekend! ?? Asked where the manger was, "not here". Awesome!!!! Spent 600$ on something I don't like and will have to pay another tailor to alter since Ill never return to this store. Jason was unapologetic and just wanted me out of the store. He got his commission and well see if he tells the manager to call me like I requested.

    This store has seen better days…read more Years and years (and years) ago, this was one of my go-to stores for many items, chief among these were men's clothing and housewares. But the "feel" in some of these areas has gone downhill; a few times while I was walking around, I had to remind myself I wasn't in Marshall's. But the experience here is not all bad. Their curtain selection still remains among the best anywhere I've shopped, and they continue to be my go-to store at least for those. I suppose you could call all the cracks in the floor tiles "artistic," but I expect it's too much of an expense to repair those. Unlike some of the chains considered more of a bargain, the shelves here were always well stocked and in order. The problem in many cases is that a lot of items just are not competitive in price, and it's less incentive for the customer to have to go online to obtain a coupon for a discount, as per signs on many shelves throughout the store. I'm glad this store is still open, because I do want to consider it as an option. But... for how much longer??

    This is the second time we've come into this store to get family and children photos done. The…read morefirst time we came in, there were two photographers in the same room, one of which seemed to have experience, and the other did not. You can guess which one we had. (I should preface that I used to work for a photography studio, so I DO have some credentials here). This was not a time to be training someone, when a family of 3 with one very young child comes in, during a busy day right before a holiday. Neither of the photographers had any idea what to do in terms of ideas, or props, or any way to get our daughter to smile. Very limited in terms of how many shots you get, regardless of whether the pictures would have great or not. I counted at least a dozen photos that would have been fantastic, IF the photographer had not had the camera face down in her lap. Today, we went in, hoping that maybe things would be different on a quiet day, and now our family has grown to 2 children, but essentially the same thing happened. Except we had 1 photographer in the room, which is fine, but the same issues applied. No attempt to bring props out for them, or any real posing ideas when one didn't work. I understand that when its just the kids, we as parents are free to help get them to smile or laugh, but i'm still unsure how to do that while being IN the photo. Afterwards, felt very pressured to sign up for the jcpenny photos membership. The sitting fee is also ridiculous. $20/person regardless of age or whether we got photos. It seems that there is minimal effort put in when they know they have your money just for showing up. Will be going to iSmile or a similar place in the future, where there are no sitting fees, (and because of that, the photographers seem to WANT to get good photos for you, since that's how the business makes money), and anytime we've walked by, everyone seems trained on how to take photos of kids. i.e. HAVE THE CAMERA READY AT ALL TIMES TO TAKE A PICTURE, SINCE KIDS ARE UNPREDICTABLE.
