If I could give this business no stars I would. Three women were leisurely shopping at this "upscale" retail gift shop. We all purchased merchandise-some regular priced and some on sale. When I inquired about gift wrap for an item I was informed that no gift wrap was available for sale items...no problem...then the sales woman proceeded to wrap a two piece crystal glass and bedside carafe in one piece of tissue and I asked her to rewrap it so that it wouldn't break. The owner Stephanie Finklestein stepped in, grabbed it out of my hand and said," Maybe you just shouldn't buy this". We were all shocked at this behavior from the owner of the shop. Another customer was purchasing several angora wraps for gifts and simply asked to be reminded what colors were available (after being forbidden to open the plastic bags to look at them) and Ms. Finklestein replied, " I just told you..." What is really interesting is that on the website Ms. Finklestein was a former social worker and "She takes pride in creating an intimate and personal shopping experience inspired by an unspoken but deep tradition of gift giving to strengthen bonds and honor memories." She talks about her people skills, deep insights into people and desire to "really know" her customers. All I can say is it must have been a rough season for Ms. Finklestein. Avoid The Elegant setting like the plague...just walk on by....there are plenty of upscale gift shops in the Hamptons where the owner really appreciates your business. read more
