What People Are Saying About Mxyplyzyk Inc

Featured Review

Contributor

In Short – A recent expansion turned the once-tiny Mxyplyzyk into a spacious style emporium stocked with everything from prettily packaged soaps to retro-looking clocks. Shoppers like the toothbrush holder that's shaped like a mighty molar, but can't resist sweetly scented candles, groovy glassware and piles of design-related tomes. If you can't find something for your gift recipient here, they deserve coal.

Obnoxious

by tlajb

The people who work here are beyond rude. You ask them a question and they answer you with contempt. I said that I wanted to buy a set of glasses and they sneered that they didn't have any more left (then why were they on display?) I asked if they would be getting more in and they practically laughed at me and said they didn't know if or when they'd get more. They are the most obnoxious people on earth. Forget it. You can go to Alphabets, Bigelow, or Flight oo1 in the neighborhood for nicer gifts. Everything they have at Mxyplyzyk you can get somewhere else. NOT original.

Too Bad

by allys

It's really too bad their customer service stinks, as the store has such variety and selection. Great products for gifts or funky home decor, but the staff is just so rude and condescending. I mean rude rude rude. I'll never go back there again, which is unfortunate -- thought I'd found a gem. I'd rather take my money somewhere else than support this type of place.
