"Extremely rude man working there on 7/15/2023. Very condescending. Your customer service skills are 0. I will tell everyone I know to NEVER visit this store. EVER *EDIT* I just found out from another shop in this area that he's the owner. That makes this even worse! Apparently he's disliked by almost everyone in this shopping district and treats people... customers AND fellow shop owners...with much disrespect. Sir, maybe it's time to retire and be bitter in your own personal space, away from the general public. This is definitely NOT your calling!"

"We saw shirts on display outside the store and decided to purchase one. The man behind the counter was extremely rude to us. We asked for a shirt size and he brusquely replied they didn't carry the size, yet the window advertised otherwise. Initially we pondered and thought maybe he was having a bad day and shrugged it off, giving him the benefit of doubt. We proceeded with perusing another item. When we went to pay for the shirt, he responded "These are cheap shirts". It was his tone and attitude that was uncalled for towards us. In addition, why would a would a store owner or employee readily make a derogatory statement a product which is sold at the place of business? (Rhetorical question). We were in disbelief about his attitude and left the store without purchasing anything. Out of curiosity, we did a Google search, then took pictures of the store. The man exited the store and inquired why we were taking pictures. We addressed his mannerisms, poor use of word choice, and behavior that was deemed rude and unnecessary to customers wanting to purchase merchandise from his store. His cantankerous attitude didn't change. He retorted "stop taking pictures and get out of here!" We wouldn't advise shopping here, but it's your prerogative."

"Very rude. Brought up politics while I was trying to shop and made me feel very uncomfortable. He blamed his high prices on politics and told us how he couldn’t believe a friend of his political views and no longer speaks to that person. My mother stopped him and said she disagreed with him and he then became very rude. We just wanted to shop. I asked to take a photo of the shirt I was going to buy my husband and he told me under no circumstances was a photo allowed? So my money went elsewhere. He should stop blaming politics on his poor sales because it’s really his own angry, nasty attitude which attributes to that."

"Had been two years since my family and I were able to be in the area but two years ago I left this store with two of the best shirts and memories of a great sales experience--and I really don't like shopping for clothes. The owner sells quality and knows the product lines he carries very well. Fast forward and we were passing through Tarpon Springs on vacation. Luckily, the store and owner were still there. I happened to be wearing a shirt I bought there two years prior. He immediately recognized, determined my shirt size without asking and started helping me by pulling the shirts that would fit. He also talked with my wife and grown daughters while I was trying shirts on to get their opinions. Overall, an excellent experience and I left with four new shirts! Highly recommend."

"Nice clothes, purchased a pair of pants, price was fair, and owner John Tripodo was very pleasant, he told my son to try on the pants first to be sure he liked them and on the receipt it very clearly states "NO CASH REFUNDS exchanges only within 10 days of purchase" so there was no misinformation. I felt the store did an honest business and appreciate that. This is a must stop and shop if you are visiting tarpon springs sponge docks."
