It reminds me of a "Home Depot" or another huge big-box store in America. Not that there's anything…read morewrong with that, it's somewhat overwhelming here in Amsterdam. It's like getting a bushel or huge Blue Crabs but when breaking them open, not a lot of meat inside. Although a lot of inventory, it's not cheap but if you're shopping here, price is not your concern. Most of the plants outside don't have prices in front of you.
