Really cool collectable store with an awesome selection! They had everything from Swarovski pieces and Christofer Radko ornaments to Pokemon cards and some much more. I was especially impressed with the Pokemon card selection. There was a great variety and plenty to look through. The Swarovski x men pieces were really impressive, especially the Wolverine piece, which was so cool that I ended up taking it home with me . It's a really unique collectable and looks amazing in person. Defiantly a great spot for collectors or anyone looking for something special read more

pros: this is the best crystal place ive ever been to. They had all kinds of themes here including Disney. They also had a toy section which consisted of Funko pops and action figures. prices were reasonable and the quality was present CONS: The staff was nice but one lady was just pushing sales onto us. She kept trying to convince us to buy things which i'm not a fan of OVERALL: As long as you're not bothered by pushiness i highly suggest coming here for toys or mainly crystal figures read more

Don't trust these people. I ordered an item online and received confirmation of the order. After a week with no shipping update, I called the store and was told they had sold the last one right before my order was placed yet they made no attempt to notify me. I wouldn't have known if I hadn't followed up because the item was meant as a Xmas gift and the woman I spoke with said I should have expected it because the company no longer made them. They continue to list the item for sale on their website read more

They carry an array of collectibles. I have been on a hunt for a crystal castle. Swarvorski made them way back in the day and they are now hard to find. I don't trust Amazon or eBay to ship mainly because my mail carrier has been seen tossing my packages from the end of my driveway to my door if he gets lucky and if it's not packaged to withstand heavy tossing, my castle will be in little shards. Needless took day, the sales person packaged my castle securely. Paid a fair price for it and I would definitely go back. I'm eyeing the Asian Swarvorski zodiac set. read more

I go there sometimes they really nice people but I'm a pop hunter and their cheapest pop there is a 30 dollar figure when it's only worth 11 dollars and the chases that they have to go towards from 70 to 80$$$ when they are usually 30 to 10 $$$ but overall very good read more

been here several times and this place loves to charge full price for items allegedly 'on sale.' uncomfortable that owner seems to vet her own customers. agree w/ other reviewer that she talks way too much, even to the point where i assumed it was on purpose at the register so her daughter can quote you one price yet charge you for more. also, the back toy area is a mess and not well lit. a shady place literally and figuratively. never going back. read more

Use caution shopping at Crystal Palace! I purchased a Precious Moments Figurine online that arrived cracked. Crystal Palace refused to acknowledge the damage, stating that was how it was manufactured..? Crystal Palace refused to let me exchange or return. I filed a dispute with my credit card company. Crystal Palace replied to the credit card company, they would refund once I returned it. So NOW they will allow me to return it! OH, but I have to pay over $20 in shipping. Crystal Palace then sends me a email to ship it back and they will refund the figurine and shipping. So I do what they ask. Now they have the figurine back and they REFUSE to reimburse me for shipping! I forwarded all emails to my credit card company. I am still waiting for my permanent refund from my credit card company who told me I should have kept the figurine and they would have still got my money back. At the time I did not think that was right if I get the refund they get the figurine. I realize now they lied to me to get me to pay to ship it back to them. I got shafted! This is the WORST customer service I have experienced in a long time. My Husband tried to order another figurine for me as it was something I really wanted. Crystal Palace cancelled the order saying the item was out of stock when it is still listed on their website. Crystal Palace I hope you are happy with yourself! What goes around comes around! read more

My friend purchased a bracelet about a year ago and it broke in half. She brought it back with her receipt and immediately the owner became defensive and belligerent. She insisted that my friend stepped on it or did something to break it. It was not the point of getting her money back rather the fact that the owner of the establishment was so unhelpful and just plain rude!!! I will NEVER EVER purchase anything from this business!!! She also had an excuse for my other friends repair, which they never called her to update her on the status. When we asked the owner about it she claims the office and back area had been changed around and she didn't know where anything was. These items were not cheap items and have sentimental value and the owner could've at least gone to the back to look and see...but NO!!!! Save your money on this place and shop elsewhere!!!!!!! read more

"We have money" is what the owner said when I asked what was the best they could do on two items, implying that they don't need to make the sale cause they're rich. Wanted to buy a couple keepsakes that totaled around $275 and asked what the best they could do cause Amazon had both items for cheaper. I was not looking for them to match Amazons price and willing to pay the price they had for one item but the owners Socially Awkward son wouldn't budge on the price for the other item. Long story short, bought both pieces at Amazon for $25 less. Oh well, I guess they "have money" so they'll be ok. read more

I am rather shocked by the other review. I have been shopping at the crystal palace for several years, and not once have I had a sour experience. The owner and workers have managed to give me a pleasant shopping experience each time I went there. TRUST ME when I say, they have the best deals in town (specially compared to the mall). read more

If i could give a zero star, I would. I never do reviews, but almost a month ago, I had a terrible experience...This place is a horrible place to shop. The owner talks like an uneducated person. She was disrespectful, impolite, and rude. She talks so much, and when you ask her questions, she seems to be so defensive of her answer. Worst customer service ever!! Horrible!! Horrible!! Horrible!! Really disappointed by the way I got treated. Save your money and buy somewhere else! Their online sucks too!! Everything is showing in stock, but everything is out of stock! read more

Came in about a month again. Beautiful collection of items and friendly staff on the floor. However once I was ready to pay, I received a different experience. The middle-aged blonde woman behind the counter was so rude! She tossed my ornament into the box and when I asked if I can fix it before she tapes it up, she says do whatever you want. I asked to get it wrapped and she ignored me. If she's there again, I'm not coming in. read more

Best Store ever!!!! Love going here to shop here especially during the holidays. They always put out a bizillion christopher radko ornament s. read more

I was looking for a Swarovski piece and called them. They were extremely nice on the phone and put the item on the side for me to pick up. The price was the lowest around. My wife will love this gift. read more

Crystal Palace without a doubt has the best prices for the top of the line Swarovski products. I get most of my xmas shopping from this place. It gets incredibly busy even before thanksgiving, but workers are polite and helpful. read more

I purchased 5 Christopher Radko ornaments by mail in September 2018. One of the ornaments was broken when I received them. The owner, Mary, told me to take a picture of the broken ornament and send it, which I did, and she told me she would put in a claim with the mail service and refund my money. I have called at least 6 times and each time Mary (owner) has told me she would refund my money when her "Internet person" gets in. It has now been 6 weeks, and I have received no refund. I would not shop here or purchase anything by mail - if there's a problem, you WILL NOT get your money back. read more

Avoid this merchant! Save yourself time, trouble, and money, and shop elsewhere. They will purposefully ship you the wrong items when they are out of stock of the items you ordered (which they admitted), then refuse to refund your money when you return the items. So, they have possession of the returned items and kept my money. They won't respond to their company email. It is difficult to get them on the phone. When you do get them on the phone they are rude and unhelpful. Then they fight when you contest the charge on your credit card (a 2+ month process). They told me they never received the return but they told the credit card company they did receive the return but two days too late. The return was handled and delivered as per their own guidelines, no small feat considering their lack of response to emails and phone calls. Life is too short to waste time on people who behave and conduct business in this manner. Rude, obstinate, unreasonable. I have since found the items I tried to order through Crystal Palace, I found them elsewhere for less and hassle-free. I hope you can do the same. read more

Extremely disappointed with this place. I went to this store in anticipation of a good assortment of Funko Pop vinyl figures. Although this was true, the bad customer service was a huge factor in my negative review. I went two different days and had a bad experience both times. The first time I went there I was looking through their selection and heard the workers in the back swearing profusely and talking about drugs. I was extremely offended and appalled, since I was there with my little sister and these "employees" were talking about drugs and sex loud enough for the whole store to hear. When I told the owner (or whoever was in charge, I use these terms lightly), she didn't even take it seriously and told them to "quiet down" even though I said I was offended. One of the employees was named Atilla. When I mentioned to him how I could hear him swearing and that I was offended he completely ignored me. The owner ended up telling us that they were "playing a game" and the people swearing were from the game and not the people in the back, which was absolutely not true because I'm a gamer and I know this for a fact. The "employees" were the ones being vulgar and it was clear to me and my little sister, who is way too young to hear that kind of talk. I decided to give it another chance, as the Pop vinyl figure collection was good (the only redeeming factor of this place). I went back the next day and when I asked about the price of a figure, the employee was clueless and had no idea. She said we had to wait for "Atilla" who was the person being vulgar the last time I was there. I did not want to wait for someone who ignored me anyway the previous time so I just left. As I was leaving the owner asked if we still couldn't find what we wanted. We told her that the employee did not know the price of an item, and she did not offer any help or solutions. Overall, awful customer service, and vulgar employees who ignored me or had no idea what the price of an item was at the store they worked at. I was extremely disappointed because they had a good selection, but the terrible service two different visits is enough for me to never go back. Rarely do I write Yelp reviews but I was so appalled that I just had to let others know. read more

Have been a customer for a long time, Mary the owner and her staff have been nothing but thoughtful and helpful. I have read what others have said on yelp. All I have to say is experience the crystal palace for yourself. You will not be disappointed. Make up your own mind, instead of letting online reviews influence where you shop ,eat etc.... reviews are only just that reviews. read more

My experience at crystal palace has been absolutely great they sometimes have to go and look for boxes which takes time but it's def. worth it ;). Anyway for new and retired Swarovski it's even better that u find on the web which is pretty cool. Idk what's wrong with this other lady must have been cheap or something what a troll lol anyway when I was there I was treated really nice they even offered me a water or coffee. So I'm only on here to let people know because they only really advertised by word of mouth. I'm tired of good people being burnt by a few bad apples and they don't even know about it. So if u want to get any cool stuff (no lie even better sales than amazon/ebay & last minute too lol) u should go to them u won't ever be disappointed I promise u ~ valued customer for over 7 years :)) ~ John S. read more

The content of my order was beautiful but one of the boxes the Waterford Christmas tree came in was broken both top and bottom. I just sent a note to Crystal Palace asking for them to send me a new box for storage purposes. We will see. The person packing this crystal could not have missed this. read more

We are a once a year customer at Crystal Palace over about 8 yrs. The owner, Mary is a very good business person, who shows interest in her clientele, even if they only come in once a year and/or only spend a small amount of money compared to corp clients or more affluent customers. The store sells at a set % discount off retail price depending on the product...they do not say they can do any better than that (they do have suppliers to pay and answer to, in order to keep selling that product line). What I read in a previous review is a person threatening to go to Amazon, therefore bullying them to bend their pricing just for them, and then referring to the sales person as "socially awkward" because they couldn't get what they wanted (convenience of having it NOW, at price THEY wanted, not what a store could sell it for- thus there is Amazon) sounds like "sour grapes" from a bully. Oh, from seeing the owner in the store over the years, I tell you, she's not rich; she's just trying to run a business-and she truly loves her business. And appreciates her customers..... read more
