"Each Christmas for several years Markels has been my go-to place for gifts. The customer service is without equal and my “personal” shopper these past years has been Linda. She knows my relatives and just seems to have that wonderful knack of picking out the ideal gift. The beautiful gift wrapping is well-known and the total package is without equal in the gift shop universe!"

"Favorite place to shop for me. I can always find something suitable for any occasion. I recently had to purchase a retirement gift. Mark walked me through some ideas and problem solved. Of course the gift wrapping (free) is always a hi-lite and just as the jewelry ad says "he went to "Jared's". Anyone knows when they see the gift wrapping - - it says "they went to "markel's""

"This past Christimas season, I was visiting my sister in Bluffton. We went to markel's. It's one of our regular stops when I come up. While browsing, My sister saw something she loved that I wanted to get her for Christmas but of course couldn't buy it while she was there with me. I called the store when I got back tto Florida and asked if there was a way I could purchase the item and have it shipped to me. I spoke with Mark. Wow wow wow...He was awesome!!! He found the item, customized a box for shipping (so I wouldn't have to spend a small fortune on shipping) and let me pay for it all over the phone. He was awesome and I received the item either the next day or the one right after that. She was soooo surprised & happy when she opened it. I will continue to visit the store each time I go up there and will likely order from them as well. They have amazing customer service. Thank you again Mark."
