I checked the Mariner for sundries on my February trip this year, they had an okay selection at what I thought were acceptable prices.

The shops are now stocking high quality items with matching high prices. Some really beautiful stuff but you have to be Karen or Olivias size to wear it.

On this trip on the Voyager I bought some real bargains of just "fun things"

Pendant Eggs (like those you get in St. Petersburg) for only $25, best price I have even seen on these.

Multiple thread neck chains I really like for $15

Chokers, velvet and leather (imitation I am sure) at only $3.00

Regent tee shirts for $12.50

They had a sale desk each day outside the shop and it was always pretty busy.

So much better than it was but still not a place we will be rushing to find great bargains on quality goods.
