Customer service issues, but great once you make contact!

I also found the item to be lovely, however was missing one of the figurines. We immediately notified customer service upon finding this out and have not received a reply. I’m sure the missing piece was not their fault but from manufacturing as the box appeared unopen on arrival. Again, beautiful item, and very well constructed…if it came complete, it would be worth every cent.

Update (and rating/title revised).
Was able to finally make contact with customer service and they were of great help. They tried reaching out to manufacturer but had now luck. They did make things as right as they could and to that I applaud them. If/when you can reach customer service, they are first rate!

Countdown to Christmas Advent Calendar

I really like the Advent Calendar and received it really fast after ordering. The only problem is that when I received it and put the figurines in the drawers, I found out that the #2 drawer had #4 on it. I ended up with 2- #4 drawers and no #2 one. I sent an e-mail the day I received and then called about 4 days later. I was told the person responsible for answering the complaint was ill and I would hear back in 5-10 business days. It has been at least 10 days and I have not heard anything from your company. I am not happy with the customer service I have received. I even sent a picture of the Calendar as instructed, but have not had any results. I understand they may be backed up, but I paid a lot of money on it and cannot even enjoy it because there is a drawer missing.

Central Perk - Platinum
davidmcmullen61@gmail.com (Elkton, US)
Too Picky

I wish I could have given Central Perk a 5 star rating, but sadly I could not. This piece fits very well with Christmas in the City. The height is similar to many of the older Department 56 CIC buildings such as Woolworth's (retired in 2008) and the Coca Cola Soda Fountain. Many of the newer pieces are less than 9 inches in height. The detail is also great. What I like about Christmas in the City are the crisp lines, shape details and flat painting, which works very well with my taring layout. Central Perk has the same type of details and fits the layout well. The bricks appear to be individually placed and the railing adds distinct contrast giving the piece a more realistic look.

This is my first non-ceramic Department 56 piece, and this is where my slight disappointment is derived. Though this material is more durable and impact/chip resistant. I like ceramic buildings better. I noticed the subtle sag in the roof when I placed a straight edge on it. I also noticed that the thinner walls on the building allow light to illuminate through the sides. This is only an issue when the building is lit at night.

In summary, I like Central Perk and will definitely display it frequently. I may begin to appreciate it more after I chip another ceramic building.

But one last comment, CountyNMoreGifts is the best seller of Department 56 I have purchased from in years! Their prices are very good, shipping is excellent (I have never received a damaged product or box) and customer service representatives are helpful and always willing to speak with you prior to your purchases. They get 5-Stars+!

Excellent!

Wow! This gnome is spectacular! The detail is amazing as Jim Shore does! I love that I can keep this out all year with the interchangeable baskets of the seasons! Thank you CountrynMoreGifts for the deals, fast shipping and overall selection of products! Will buy from again!

Deluxe Aurora

It was a must have on first sight

I saw this Aurora in person at a local show and knew I had to have her. I love the large size, and the sparkling jewels bring it to life. The facial expression is not 100% accurate for the character but that is to be expected on a Jim Shore piece. I still highly recommend!
