We went into this store today because we were in Hayward for Fall Fest. As soon as I walked in, I…read morerealized this was the type of place where I could spend a lot of money. There were even dogs who greeted me! My husband and I needed to use the restroom, so we went to the basement where it was located. As I was walking back to find my husband, one of the employees (maybe an owner, some younger guy) was dragging one of the dogs by the collar. I noticed that the dog had made a mess in the floor. This guy scolded the dog and hit it three times. At that point, I lost all desire to spend any money in this store and we left. The guy knew I was around, too. I can only imagine how he treats that poor dog when there aren't witnesses. I hope karma finds that guy quickly.

Most used record stores these days just have piles of chum to slog through, but this store is a gleaming shining example for every other record store to follow. Todd is very picky about the collections he buys, so there really isn't a clunker in the whole bunch. I really appreciated that, because my time is valuable and who wants to look through a bunch of crap just to get to the good stuff? Well here it's all good stuff! Todd is also very knowledgeable about many genres of music, and he takes the time to source high quality records and look up what each one is worth and price everything accordingly. I loved the "Buy two get one free" sale, of course I am a bargain hunter so I left with nine records plus a bonus record. Super happy with my purchases, I examined each record before I bought it, but it turned out it was not necessary. Todd examines them and does not sell anything that isn't stellar quality. I highly recommend this store, both for buying and selling, as I was told he gives a very fair price when buying Collections, if they are sought after and of high quality. The shop also sells books and I think DVDs and some other things, but I only had time to look through the main section of records. There was also a section of new records, but I didn't look through that section. Todd was great to talk to as well, and pointed me to an AWESOME authentic place to eat just down the block, Main Street Tacos! I am telling all my record friends about this store, and intend to come back to Hayward just to patronize this place again. Rock on, record dude!

10-year-old me would have loved this shop. When I was young I went through a rock phase -- as do we…read moreall, I'm sure. I had my rock collection, kept in an army green tackle box, which included pretty gems and stones bought at stores and others I found that I thought just looked pretty. I know what you're thinking: Yes, I was one of the popular kids in school. ;-P Anyway, decades later, I still get a bit giddy when I come across tiny boxes with miniature cards in them with the scientific name of a newly polished rock originally found in nature. Hematite's pretty tight, amiright? So I was excited to stumble upon Jack Pine Rock Shop while on vacation in Hayward. This shop packs lots to look at in a small space. It has the boxes with different stones and crystals classified, along with the woo-woo mystical traits they supposedly possess. It also has some more artistic and carved pieces in glass cases to gaze upon. There were some marble items that would look pretty on a bookshelf or table as a statement piece. The prices seemed to range from inexpensive to luxury. It was fun to peruse it all, and I hope my son is as totally cool as I was when he grows up and that I can take him here to get a few rocks for his special collection.

This tiny little shop just off the main drag in Hayward is totally worth the stop. Even if you are…read morenot really into rocks, it's a fun place to visit, with lots to see, touch and inquire about. The Jack Pine Rock Shop offers a really nice variety -- from rough stones that are just a dollar or two to large, expensive polished rocks and other pieces (most recently I had to stop myself from buying a $300 lazy susan made of the most beautiful marble). There's lots to touch and talk about, which makes it a great stop for kids. And the staff is extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. They always indulge our family with advice, tidbits and a wealth of information about their products. This is a must-stop place for our family each summer when we visit Hayward. Though I rarely buy anything, many of my family members look forward to bringing home a little gem from the rock shop each year. One other thing to note: they do an extremely good job wrapping the items you buy -- something essential to getting them home in one piece and definitely not to be overlooked.
