Deja Vu Love Boutique Vista — Local services in Vista

If I could give this place negative stars, I would. Deja Vu Love Boutique? More like Déjà Poo, because stepping into this place is like reliving a bad decision over and over again. This store is the seventh circle of hell, except instead of fire and brimstone, you get flickering fluorescent lights, sketchy products, and the overwhelming scent of cheap plastic and broken dreams.

Let’s break it down.

Customer Service: I’m convinced the employees were either zombies, government test subjects, or summoned straight from a summoning circle of apathy. One guy was playing on his phone the entire time, only looking up to grunt at me like a caveman who just discovered fire. Another employee had the attitude of someone being held hostage, staring at me like I personally ruined their day just by existing. Asking for assistance felt like an act of war, and when I did, the response was a mix of confusion and barely concealed disdain.

Product Quality: If you enjoy spending money on overpriced garbage, this is your place. Half the inventory looked like it was recovered from a dumpster behind a failed carnival. The selection was questionable at best, with packaging that looked like it had been through a flood, a fire, and possibly an exorcism. Batteries were leaking acid, materials smelled like a chemical spill, and let’s just say I wouldn’t trust anything from this store near my body unless I had a death wish.

Cleanliness: Calling this place filthy would be an insult to filth. The floors were sticky with an unidentified mystery substance that I didn’t dare investigate. The shelves were dusty, the display cases had fingerprints that told a horror story, and I’m pretty sure I saw something scurry behind the counter. I don’t know if it was a rat or an employee’s soul trying to escape, but either way, it wasn’t comforting.

Atmosphere: The lighting is straight out of a horror movie, flickering as if the store itself is powered by the ghost of bad business decisions. The music selection was an awkward mix of outdated club beats and eerie silence between tracks, making the whole experience feel like a fever dream. And the smell? A choking blend of cheap rubber, expired perfume, and regret.

Overall Experience: This store is an insult to capitalism, a crime against retail, and a reminder that some businesses simply should not exist. If you enjoy being ignored, overcharged, and traumatized all in one visit, then by all means, waste your time and money here. Otherwise, save yourself the trouble and set your money on fire instead—it’ll be a better experience and at least you’ll get some warmth out of it.

In the end, a complete and utter disaster. This place should come with a warning label and a hazmat suit. Do yourself a favor and avoid it like an ex who still...

I kind of wanted to also write a review for their old closed location by TriCity, but oh well this location is actually much bigger, much nicer, but sadly also creepier.

Coming here at night is sketch with the lack of lighting and the confusing layout of where exactly the front door is. Not to say the it’s not safe, but if you are a woman I would not come here by yourself or at least park as close to the front door as possible.

It may look like it’s 2 stories, but it’s really just a huge main floor sectioned off and catered mostly to women. I get it, men don’t want to go to a brick and mortar shop, they prefer to do their thing online for purchases and for other stuff……I’m pretty sure the section of upstairs labelled “employees only” may be more of the “private” kind of restriction versus an establishments policy, but that’s speculation.

The staff is super nice and helpful and their prices are pretty reasonable considering they stock a ridiculous amount of items. Anything your looking for that’s not illegal they probably have it. Don’t fool yourself into coming here for “gag” gifts, just own it and you’ll be much better off. I haven’t ordered anything they didn’t carry in store yet, but they will hold items you call ahead for.

Military discount people, use it if you have it.

Late hours for those unexpected moments where you have to run out and get something. It’s also convenient if your coming from many of the breweries as you head back to the 78, or the Mexican food nearby, or the 24...

I come to this shop whenever i need to purchase anything. I drive about an hour to and from, not only because of the selection but because of the people. This was the first sex shop I've ever been to and at the time I was very shy and kinda not wanting to speak up, the employee's not only understood my embarrassment but really spent the time to help me feel comfortable and find what I was looking for. Since then I've be going here. But on my last visit I was a little aggregate. A woman, I believe it was Petra or something of the sort. Followed me around the store in the most obvious of ways as if I was going to steal the small bottle of lube I was holding. really? Do you REALLY think I would steal a 4$ bottle of lube. I understand that people do steal and it is easy, but I had spoke to this same woman earlier in the night for help( and to add she was incredible unhelpful) and now she's following and watching me? I've been going here for a long time and I have never been treated like this. She did not help me, she did not make me feel comfortable and it took almost every inch of me to hold myself back from telling her off. I love the store, like I said I drive an hour to and from. I believe its worth it. I give them a 5/5. But to that one employee, 0/5. I don't believe she should be working there. Her job is to make the customer feel comfortable and be helpful. She failed at both of...
