My dog chewed my lamp cord and cut it into half. It was a designer lamp and i was scared to bring it into a random electrician to fix it- what if they butcher it and make it look nothing like the original? After doing some research online, I brought in the lamp here and got it re-wired. Dropped it off at 12:30pm and pick up at 4:30pm. It is a little bit pricey but did a great job & the cord looks the same as the original one. Fast, immaculate work and friendly staff- a little bit pricey but worth it! 2020 update: my first review was from 2017. It seems they moved out of NYC and now in NJ.

Great shop. Specializing in vintage lighting, they have a huge selection of anything you might even need to light your home. I've also used them to rewire a couple of old floor lamps. Service was quick (1-3 days) and very reasonable (around $55 for a pretty simple lamp).
