Bill Malone Trading is the place to go if seeking Native American arts and crafts in Gallup, New…read moreMexico. Bill has many years of experience. He is very knowledgeable about the items he sells and is a recognized expert in Navajo Rugs. His shop sells jewlery, paintings, kachinas and many other crafts. I don't bother shopping anywhere else. His prices are very fair and what ever he quotes is more than reasonable. His family business is one of the highlights I look forward to visiting. Several generations of family provide excellent service. There is absolutely no pressure to buy. All of his products are authentic and genuine. Some from his personal lifetime collection. I have purchased goods from Bill since before he opened his trading company. His store is rated as #1 of 14 things to do in Gallup. I probably visit his store 3 to 5 times each year and have never been disappointed in the many items that have been purchased.

These are some of the nicest people I've met in awhile, and I love the vast selection of jewelry…read morethey had in the store. Everything was so beautiful and well priced. My cousin brought me here to shop and they gave her the key so she could show me things I liked in glass cases; they were so trusting and friendly. I like to put things on and walk around a bit, to see if I find something else to replace it by the time I am ready to check out, so a lot of switches happened. However, after I had chosen my treasures, I noticed I still had a ring on my finger! I would have walked out with it. They laughed, examined the ring, and actually threw it in with all the other purchases. So nice. My dad offered to pay for a more expensive set I loved, and I would pay for some smaller items myself, but when we got up to the counter he shoved everything to the salesman (habit, I guess) so I thought he was just going to pay for everything after all. Typical of him. While he was settling the bill I was asking the names of all the stones so I could write them down. They put them in boxes and we left. A few minutes later my dad asked if I had paid for the other pieces; he didn't recall shoving everything to the salesman; we checked the receipt and they had only charged us for one set, so we called my cousin. She said they had just called her because they forgot to charge us. We were horrified! I joked that I guess I was determined to steal something from them! But it's no joke, it was awful! my dad dropped us at El Rancho hotel because we wanted to look around and he went back to pay them. They were so nice, he said. A few days later, we went back to pick up my fathers' broken turquoise watch band they had fixed for him, and also were hoping to buy some bracelets for my niece since the ones she loved in Santa Fe were high priced compared to what we paid in Gallup. They invited us in to shop some more and laughed about the incident a few days earlier. They said they didn't think for a second that I had stolen it, they understood what had happened. That made me feel so much better, I would hate for them to think I would do that to them! Anyway, I hope to shop here again, their merchandise is lovely. I have not stopped wearing it and I get compliments every day. :)

I ask him general questions only for him to rush me while he helps sell more fragile equipment to more customers buying into his charasmstic character, whom I was once until I seen the impatientence and annoyance of helping me test out my amp.

If you go on a weekend and the senior aged lady is working there run away! My husband and I both have an un-healthy infatuation with watches and visit this shop to have the batteries replaced when we have accumulated a few. Our current visit we had 6. They were quick and efficient and we were told that out of the 6 watches, 2 of them already had lifetime battery warranties so they were free. Yay! Out of the remaining 4 only 3 of them qualified for lifetime because one of the watches had a screw on back. Then, senior aged lady proceeded to charge us for 4 lifetime batteries. Wait, what? You can't change it because you already rang us up? Huh? Minus 1 star. Then when my husband informed her that he also receives a military discount as he has been given on numerous occasions at this location, he shows her his Veteran status ID. She asks for his military ID. He doesn't have one. He served 14 years active duty, he is s veteran. He protected our country and her behind for 14 years and she proceeded to tell him that unless he's Retired or Active Duty he doesn't deserve a discount. . Minus 1 more star. She reluctantly gives the discount and informs him this is a one time deal. My husband didn't serve in the USAF for 14 years to be disrespected. I know that the manager/owner of this location is retired Marine and he would be appalled at his employees behavior.
