FOR TRAVEL AND LIVING STORE ONLY!!! BUYER BEWARE!!! I am beyond perplexed as to why there aren’t more negative review on this company! I’ll try and narrow it down to the most significant issues I encountered.

First, this store is lucratively located inside the Venetian Hotel and have various flashy items for sale to lure people in. I of course was immediately drawn to a beautiful black studded panther sculpture set atop a glass table. I asked the attendant, Moses, what the price was and he immediately quoted me $5K. I was taken aback by the price so I asked him what exactly justifies this price, he literally told me ALL items in the store were handmade by local artists in Las Vegas, then he asked if I would consider buying it for $3500. I told Moses I had a concert to attend that evening, I would think about in the interim, I told him I’d be back afterwards which I did. He assured me they’d be able to ship said item anywhere in the contingent U.S. free of charge, along an additional item from a rack containing ceramic figurines.

Upon purchasing item, I noted the bottom of the receipt said “No refund, exchange within 14 days” – which was NEVER disclosed to me, I immediately broughT this to Moses’s attention and he assured me this didn’t apply to my purchase, he assured me the item was fully insured should anything happen to it and I would be able to return or exchange the item should ANYTHING happen to it.

Long story short, I ended up purchasing the sculpture. (The return/exchange policy was NEVER disclosed prior to purchase mind you,) I was still in Las Vegas after a couple of days had passed and I hadn’t heard anything from the company, so I contacted their number and left a message. I later received a call from a Patricia stating that she will be my point of contact during the shipping process.

Almost 3 weeks had passed by the time the sculpture got to me, (via UPS)when Moses initially promised me the item would ship from their warehouse within 2-3 business days… The box was heavily damaged – I contacted Patricia and she assured me there was a box within the box that protected the sculpture. I took pictures of everything.

So as suspected, the sculpture was damaged, there were holes and missing paint, missing studs- But upon further assessment, I noted the sculpture was NOT resin at all (as told to us by Moses), the sculpture was made of complete foam with a light shellac shelling. THE BEST PART of this all, at the bottom of the sculpture there’s a sticker that reads “MADE IN CHINA”!!!! THIS IS NOT A “HANDMADE” ITEM BY A LOCAL ARTIST AS STATED TO ME BY MOSES & PATRICIA!!!

THIS IS FRAUD!! ITS ALL A SCHEME! Not only do you get bamboozled into thinking you’re buying a one-of-a-kind item handmade by a local artist, we found the same item on HOME DEPOT for $430!!!!!!!

We are now in the midst of disputing the purchase and possibly going to court, this is false advertisement at its finest and fraudulent scheming on their part!!!

Please be aware when going into this store! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!!!! MOSES WILL LIE TO YOUR FACE TO GET THE SALE! SWINDLER!
