Went to Davis for Woodstock's wilde bread and looked to see if there were any crystal shops around…read moreand found this gem. There are very few decent crystal shops in the bay area, and this is definitely one of the better ones. Really good variety of good quality stones in various forms (Palm Stones, loose small pieces, spheres, towers, carved animals, etc). Spoke to the owner and she hand picks the selection and she's got a great eye. Good selection of labradorite with nice flash. Nice selection of deep purple amethyst forms. And the prices are very fair, which can't be said of many other shops I've been to like in Los Gatos, Santa Cruz, and San Francisco. A lot of SF shops have horrible quality stuff unfortunately. They only restock new stuff once a year it seems but it's worth visiting this shop if you're in the area. The owner was very helpful and opened up any display case I wanted to see without a fuss. I ended up picking up a great malachite sphere.

Such a charming bookstore with some great selections! I love Avid Reader and occasionally get my…read morebook fix here~ They have books of many genres. I'm sure you can find something you like. They also sell small items, such as games, totes and more, for gifting. I always like to walk in and browse and see if I'm drawn to anything new read~ Today, a delightful new book was right infront me and after skimming a few pages. I knew this is it. Service is absolutely amazing. I have this weird habit of having to make a book cover for my new books. Staff kindly offered me a few options for my book cover and I eventually decided to use brown paper. I got my new book and covered it with protective paper on the spot. They are very accommodating. I really appreciate that. Looking forward to stepping in again for my next read~

Vastly overpriced, but that is to be expected given that it is a college store meant for excited…read morestudents and parents. Good place to get something in an emergency (like if you forgot a calculator and have an exam), but you will likely be charged well over market price. The store has a wide variety and nice selection of goods. You can find plenty of products from most categories. Academic supplies, clothing, food products, books, toys. In terms of service, I really wouldn't expect anything one way or another. Not because they are bad or anything; the employees here are predominantly students of the school itself. This means employment is a bit of a revolving door, so they may not be able to help if you need something specific. Overall, I quite like this place. It isn't cheap, but it is certainly useful and convenient.

I found these beautiful, hand painted mole-skin notebooks that was perfect! I found painted scenes that spoke to each of their loves and personalities! The gal at the checkout was very helpful in wrapping my items for gift giving and she even marked the bags for me so that I would gift the correct bag to the proper recipient. I can't wait to head back over to browse again for myself. The prices seamed quite reasonable and the art selection wonderful.

They didn't have any small sizes, but I figured I could make a medium work since I didn't wanna go home empty-handed. Over the years, I misplaced all of my stuff from my college days, so I jumped at the opportunity to find a replacement while on my way to Sac for the weekend. The store doesn't offer posters of the university or of anything really, except the egghead sculptures. No thanks. They do offer plenty of gifts and accessories though, including a collection of UCD sanrio products. Being on campus, of course they sell electronics as well as textbooks downstairs. When making my purchase, the staff ran into technical issues at the front counter, but they eventually found a resolution without too much of a delay. Parking is free on Saturdays and Sundays.

They are very help and owners care! They're recommendations are accurate. Without them I'd be up a creek. They have saved me from hiring a pool company. When I need a pool part they typically have it in stock. The prices are not necessarily a bargain. However if we don't shop here they'll go away. Have to shop local. Amazon doesn't do water analysis and doesn't tell you if you have too much metal in water.

The owner, Eric, yelled profanity at our 2 year old while we were attempting to shop for blinds…read more He, word-for-word, said "Are you f-ing kidding me? That's a $5,000 table- F*CK!" and stormed off; grabbing the toy trinkets my child was playing with from right in front of him. There is absolutely no excuse for that response in any setting- let alone a professional one. Eric had ran to hide in the back when my husband wanted to confront him. There was no apology, no explanation, nothing- from anyone. We would absolutely be reporting to corporate but upon further research we found out he is an owner. I also can't help but feel this was a racially driven attack. I, a white woman, had come in prior to my husband and had been greeted warmly by Eric. But my hispanic husband who came in later was not greeted at all- actually, he was cussed at! Money can't buy class but apparently Eric has neither of those since he was so worked up over $5,000. I would spend my money elsewhere. There is nothing "Ma and Pa" or "family owned" about this place. Just some wanna-be capitalist white supremacists who think it's okay to cuss and yell at toddlers and potential customers.
