Incredible service and an actually perfect, unique gift for my partner's 40th - the owner, Gina, helped me shop virtually (via facetime) since I was out of town (and shopping last-minute). A highly professional experience -- I suggested a mug I liked, and she filled in the gift box with a really meaningful set of items -- all local -- tea, tea infuser, honey, a roadrunner tea towel -- that made my partner's birthday really special. She also helped me print a handwritten note for him, since I couldn't be there in person and was running too late to send something by mail. I also found a print in the shop that he already hung on his wall. We use all the tea items on a regular basis. It's all local and super special. I also flew through here the other day because I needed earrings, and they had a perfect pair that Gina helped me pick out. They know what they are doing, and I've never been disappointed. It's one of my go-to places when I want a gift that someone (or myself) will use over time. They've always been thoughtful about price points too (if I want something nice but really don't have much to spend, versus when I'm willing to spend more). Couldn't say more about how happy I am that Albuquerque has this special community space down at...
Read moreWow, I am so glad I picked-up Flyby's business card from a local coffee shop this past winter! Flyby transformed my Christmas giving - and now I use them for all occasions. My experience with Flyby was truly exceptional. I recommend them to all my friends, and now to the WORLD via this review!
Their selection of upscale culinary and artisan goods is seemingly inexhaustible. Their attention to detail is first class, which is reflected in the thoughtful organization and presentation of their boxes
I'd like to specifically note their amazing custom service. It is a breeze to order multiple boxes to multiple addresses - and they called me personally to help when I had an issue. Additionally, I made several errors with my brother's addresses - and they kindly helped track down my packages and even resent one.
In summary, I used to send gifts from various national companies, but I am now a Flyby convert! What a pleasure to send my business to a locally, women-owned company who operates at the highest level of goods and services. Thank you Flyby! Please don't...
Read moreI was impressed that everything seemed like things I would use myself or things I could give to someone, knowing they would really actually use it,. I found two tea towels for my new place (one with gingko leaves and one with chiles that says "red or green?"), a few cards that feel really perfect for the people I gave them to, and I'm looking forward to coming back when I need something perfect. I think everything or nearly everything is local. I feel really good about supporting this little place, especially as it is woman-owned. I liked the experience of being in the shop and looking around, too. It just felt different than typical gift stores -- more focused on meaningful things and on how it felt to move around the space, and not at all...
