We were here for the Tyson Wells Gem Show and Swap Meet but we found this store right off the main drag. It's a small gift shop full of Quartzsite souvenirs and it's also a very nice game shop for all those snowbirds from Canada. If you're looking for every expansion set made for Catan and Ticket to Ride then this is your place. - Family-Friendly! Probably the best part about visiting this shop were the friendly and courteous owners. - They also have a nice selection of gourmet and hard to find bottled sodas.

One of the many rock and mineral shows held during January/February in Quartzsite Arizona. This was…read moreour first year at the Tyson Wells show. Tyson Wells can be best described as a swap meet focused on rocks and minerals. But unlike the Desert Gardens show ( down the road), which is focused only on rocks and minerals, the Tyson Wells show has many more vendors selling junk items made in China. That's probably the biggest negative about this show. You'll find everything here from animal skulls, to glass pipes ( like the ones you see on Live PD), and they even have a grocery store that sells mostly expired food items that were discarded from grocery stores. Perhaps one of the saddest things I saw was that one vendor was selling stalagmites and stalactites in one of the dark alleys. It's illegal to collect, buy, and sell stalagmites in several states. So should you still go here? If you're driving the 10 in January, definitely! It's free to park and visit and they have so many interesting things for sale here. You'll probably spend more than hour here, but it's worth it. Note - Earlier in the week we visited the Desert Gardens down the road and if you're looking for strictly rocks, minerals and fossils to add to your collection that's a better choice. The Desert Gardens show was family-friendly, Tyson Wells is like a true swap meet so you should treat it as such with your kids. Tip - You MUST visit the actual Tyson Wells Storefront. It's on the main street and you can't miss their sign. It's mostly a gift store and a MASSIVE selection of board games. The owners are soooo friendly to kids...

It's been about seven years since my original review. Good time for an update!…read more I stopped by Gem World last week, and overall, it's still one of the best places around for minerals, crystals, and rocks. The selection is massive. Whenever looking for minerals, this is a highly recommended place to go to. The main issue here, and it's a big one, is unclear and inconsistent pricing. A lot of items simply aren't labeled properly. For example, you'll see trays of quartz with vague Quality ranges like "from A+ to C," but no explanation of what that actually means. Because of this, prices often get decided at the register instead of on the shelf! Ouch! This leads directly to the real problem: whoever helps you can quote you a completely different price for the exact same item. !!! There's one older Asian lady you really want to avoid like plague, for example. no matter how high the prices are, she will always charge a triple the amount it cost. Very greedy. The upselling is aggressive and constant. Prices going up overall is understandable inflation happens. But when pricing isn't transparent, it opens the door to situations like this, and that's frustrating.
