I managed to drop in to Saks as well, I like this store but never seem to buy anything from here. Great selection of brands, well run and mantained.

Beware of your pocketbook - this store is very expensive but worth a trip if you are visiting NYC. Reminds you of the days before superstores, when shopping was meant to be an elegant experience.

Couldn't afford a thing but just fun to walk through a famous institution and see elegant old fashioned shopping!

Ive always wanted to go there as everyone was raving about this store.. It's almost a tourist attraction but too expensive for an average person to shop at. A very clean & well organised place with polite but a bit stuck up staff. All in all worth visiting.

We wanted to browse and show my boyfriend's daughters how the rich live- this was fun! Looking at $10,000 watches and $2000 purses was actually a blast! Everyone was friendly and answered all of our questions. Definitely take your family here just to browse and dream a little...

We went to Saks to purchase a prom dress for our daughter, and found the perfect one (and it didn't break the bank). We were treated to very good service by professional staff.

I love Saks!! And if you do too, this is the Mecca of all Saks. It is Saks fifth avenue on the 5th avenue. You just gotta visit! Shopping till you drop here? Well you have a choice there, don't ya?

Exactly what I was looking for when I headed to Saks! From the friendly interchange with the doorman to the excellent service from the staff. I felt very pampered and enjoyed my shopping experience!
