Saw very happy people on Instagram, encouraging you to come to the shop. We waited all week to go. We did not spend anywhere near the time that I thought we would be spending in the store. Let me just say as a former cast member I miss Cast Connections terribly, and was hoping to score a few pieces to add to my collection of Disney furniture. I was sorely disappointed. Don’t get me wrong, the store was stocked completely, from floor to ceiling with Disney items, however they were grossly overpriced. Apparently we weren’t the only ones that felt this way, because we saw lots of people leaving empty-handed. One guy grumbled to his wife saying ,”Honey, I love you, but really? $15 for 1 bar of soap, and $75 for a dusty Bambi pillow?”
Definitely some vintage items as far as the figurines. Most of the items that have been cleared out of the resorts look like they have been sitting there for more than 10 years… and at the prices, they are asking I can see why they are still sitting.
If you are interested in owning a piece of Disney Resorts history, and money is of no object, then this will be the place for you. Otherwise, do a wee bit of research, and hit the Antique Mall in Lakeland… exact same items for a fraction of the cost.
