To whom it may concern, I have been a regular customer for quite a while at your business establishment. The incense and t-shirts have always been the focus of my attention when it comes to purchasing the products that your store offers. On the matter of personal belief systems and decent ethical value principles, I am persuaded that unfortunately your stores cannot receive my patronage anymore. I'm sure I will not be missed, considering that the majority of your customers and your proceeds are established from the prevalent drug addiction epidemic in the greater Charlotte area. I understand and I am knowledgeable of North Carolina laws and statutes governing such sales as well as Federal current laws. So by law, your business is protected by your employees' thorough training to not give sales, to anyone underage or of legal age, using drug-related jargon and references when shopping at your stores. Awesome, you are safe from prosecution. The reality is, that by just offering the sale of these specific accessories for smoking ,(non-tobacco style pipes, rolling papers, brand names, marketing marijuana leaf promotional products, and gas mask apparatus'; you are aiding and abetting in the distribution, substance abuses, and drug addictions to crack, marijuana, hashish, and many more destructive harmful illegal substances. The rationale and justification, that it is only sold for tobacco and E-vapor type substances, and I am within the close boundaries of the legal mandates. However in all sincerity, in my long experienced life, I or anyone I know have yet once, ever witnessed or heard of anyone ever smoking "tobacco" from a gas-mask apparatus! But you are safe from prosecution. It's justified then?! How many young college students, underage youths receiving "smoking accessories" from legal age purchasers, older adults and children's' lives have to be scarred and torn apart through drug addiction and its' wreckage; until your store's owners feel even one slight bit of remorse and accountability in this state of our local and national drug epidemic? Yes, marijuana is legal for recreational use in a handful of states, and yes it is legal and does provide some medical benefits for individuals who "really" have a medical need in some states. Why is it that it is legal in only some states, and not in all of the United States? I have no problem in its use for that one purpose. Marijuana has thirty known carcinogens, it de-motivates young and older men and women, and usually serves as a handy gateway drug for harder substances such as crack cocaine, etc. It, like alcohol, also destroys the brain cells quite effectively, and leads to a host of physical and mental neurosis' side effects, not to mention the lives that have been destroyed because of substances abuse and automobile driving judgments and impairment. Our tax dollars, your tax dollars, also go into portions of the funding, of Federal and state drug rehabilitation programs throughout the nation and in our prison systems. Alcohol is also a drug and should be treated the same. However alcohol sales are not illegal in the state of North Carolina. Marijuana, cocaine, crack, heroin, hashish, opium, etc. are illegal. Wonder why that is federally and state mandated differently? Your stores do not sell the actual drugs, so you're rationalized and justified, right, in your personal constitutions? It's not your fault that people come to your establishment to purchase the pipes, hookahs, gas masks, rolling papers, grinders and seed separators, etc. that are "ONLY" for tobacco/e-vapes use. You do not make them purchase these items. However, I am certain you do not mind the large percentages of revenues received from the majority of sales in "smoking accessories". You business owners have proven to be very resourceful entrepreneurs. Do you ever imagine those business skills and acumen could be used to sell other products and services, not related to substance abuse accessories? Do you really believe that offering the products at your stores, does not encourage, promote, and at the very least, influence what the minds of young impressionable adults view as American society "norms"? Being an advocate for marijuana use does not justify the sell of drug abuse accessories. But hey, "I don't have to shop at your store if I do not like it", right? As long as it's legal and you make profit, right? As if, that reality alone contributes to a better quality of life for our citizens in the greater Charlotte, North Carolina area. read more

My daughter and I visited Buddha's Bazaar on 10/7/16 and we were supremely pleased with the customer service. We were able to browse without being stalked and everyone was very knowledgeable and displayed patience as I had a plethora of questions. Danielle was AWESOME!! She really knows the products and was able to answer every question I posed without hesitation. I didn't interact with the other two on staff as much, but they too were very professional, but very warm and polite as well. So....KUDOS TO THE STAFF & when I called back to personally thank them, Danielle remembered me immediately. That really says a lot and speaks to the culture of the store. They will continue to get my business and perhaps they need to also consider conducting customer service classes here in the Charlotte area as "excellent" customer service is a rarity in many places. read more

This store is absolutely amazing! The range of products that they carry will satisfy the needs of anyone who walks in. Great gifts, glass, essential oils, tea, and so much more! The look and feel is that of a high-end smoke shop, but with reasonable and competitive prices on everything that they carry. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and can assist anyone's needs. They also have the best craft soda selection in town and they are always bringing in the newest and coolest stuff. Easily one of my favorite places to shop! read more

This place is super rude. The black girl that was there today would not service my party. Did not even ask what we were trying to buy. Seeing that covid is still in full effect they made shopping very difficult. Very unprofessional and ignorant. Violated rules and made up rules I'm sure doesn't exist anywhere but the freaking White House. Instead of being violent we decided to leave. I did not get her name but whatever black girl that work TODAY 3/13/21 was very disrespectful. Think twice before supporting this business. read more

I've had several amazing experiences so I'm going to mention TWO outstanding employees, Becca and Michelle. they were incredibly friendly and helpful.
