Visiting from out of town and decided to take a look. I am a collector and have purchased stones at every level of the trade from mine to retail. This shop is selling stones at criminally high prices even for a retail location. I cannot fathom the justification for this kind of gouging. I would not buy a thing and left after a few minutes of looking around. There were stones in there priced at $16+ that I can get for a few dollars at other retail locations. There were stone chip necklaces priced at $100+ that are usually a fraction of that price retail. It s obscene.
