I love this store for many reasons:…read more the vibes are high. some of the first things I saw were religious based /Catholic items. followed by some trendy "witchy" things, and even a section for African spirituality. no one was left out. all things were positive and high-spirited, nothing sinister or cold. the staff is great! my 11-year-old son and I were warmly welcomed in... the kind of welcome that is not always extended to kids in crystal stores. he was even offered a free choice from the loose stone bin. the staff was kind; friendly & attentive, but not overbearing. the prices are fair. I got a little brass bowl, a loose, bulk type specimen, a nice sized specialty stone, and a very large display piece -- free candies, cute fortunes, and tiny freebie stones at the register -- for less than $250. I was happy with my purchase and my entire shopping experience. the selection is phenomenal. there are crystals at every price point from just a few dollars on up to the hundreds. a vast selection of tarot cards, statues, jewelry, incense... there is something for everyone. I bet no one walks out empty handed and I also bet no one regrets their purchase or ever feels like they were ripped off. we are tourists from California but we would visit Downtown Sarasota again, and if/when I do, this store would be among my first stops. five stars across the board.
