Quirky but with QUALITY & WAY ACCOMMODATING
by boopbedoo at Citysearch 5 A Shoe-A-New
Even though I have wayy too many shoes, I was in a real bind....
I needed A pair of shoes shined and a heels on my favorite Pradas for a wedding the next day.
No other shops in the area were even willing to consider it in the 'busy season' I was told.
These guys at shoe-a-new were obviously swamped. I mean , like ,
there were hundreds of shoes in various stages of repair.
Even though they were obvuously slammed with work and scheduling incoming work for 5 and 10 days out,
They assured me they could 'rush' the job on overtime, after hours .
I offered double the regular price and was told "thank you but that is more than the standard rush fee" ,
which I was happy to pay.
I walked past the shop later that night and saw them working on my shoes at 10:30 pm.
I picked the shoes up the next day.
The shine made the black shoes look like new, and the heels on the other pair were
better than when I bought them [plus they shined them for free as well].
This Place ROCKS!
I don't know when the 'elves' rest,
but being accommodated like that, when I was in a real bind was so refreshing....
I will always take my leather and shoes to shoe a new from now on .
Pros: free parking right in front, Rockin helpfull, Honest,open late
Cons: had to wait in line for 4-5 min., the shop is small and a bit crowded with products. |
