Although this place has mostly Chinese Christian books and Chinese bibles (that I don't need), but it does have random small cute things that you can buy. Bookmarks, water bottles, wall hangings, a few pens, decorations etc. Not a lot of quantity of every item, so get it while it's still there. Staff is friendly. The lady who helped me is super nice and I really like her a lot. They have Chinese Christian Calendars every year which I didn't know many people order from them. Their customer service is superb. I think all the Chinese churches in LA and OC all come here for their products unlike the other place I went to that closed down near by. I only found this place because of Yelp. So happy and so thankful. I'll be coming here whenever I am in town.

My father in law recommended this place when I started getting into crystals. They carry such a…read morelarge variety of crystals for all types of energy and fend shui.

They do also carry affordable selections. The staff are very knowledgeable and can give you advice. They also cleansed and purified my bracelets I bought before leaving. Taught me how to care of them to keep the energy. Will be coming back soon when I can get more crystals!

Or if I need to replenish any of my toiletries, make up, or skincare, this shop has such a great and huge selection of goods. We were killing time before our dining reservation and decided to go window shopping here. It's located on the second floor of the Tawa mall where Daiso is. Our friend ended up buying an armful of hair care items here, so it didn't end up being only window shopping. Crazy thing was that we killed around 30-40 minutes here and WE DIDN'T EVEN GO TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORE. We had to speed run that section. Definitely warrants another visit to go check out everything thoroughly. There's everything you could possibly think of needing here: electronics (karaoke machines of all sizes, keyboards and peripherals, miniature washing machines and dryers), things for your car like dash cams, tools and other hardware items, kitchen items like frying pans, rice cookers, grills, and much more, household cleaning items and electronics, organizational and storage items, tables, traveling luggage, stationery, cups, dishes, utensils, there's a $1-2 table section, cute items, and the cosmetics and beauty products are brands from Korea, Japan, and China. Whole entire wall of sheet masks and pads. There's so much to look at the deals are decent too. Comparable to what you'd find in like ShibuyaLA or Ebisu Life, so shop around. A lot of the electronics are like the off brand ones you'd find on Amazon after they're discounted down, so that's nice. Excited for my next visit!

The prices are highly reasonable. We bought some kitchenware and practical household products. They also have a great selection of Asian skincare and cosmetics. I picked up a beautiful eyeshadow palette and some soothing eye masks. The Vibe: The store is well-organized, stocked with essentials, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit.

Review for My Thanh Jewelry…read more I came in around 1 PM to have two pendants checked after finding this place through Google. It had good reviews and was close, so I decided to give it a try. After being buzzed in, I stood right in front of the employee. He looked at me, then got on his phone and didn't acknowledge me while I was standing there. There was also a woman on the phone, which I understand, but even after that, there was still no greeting or basic acknowledgment. When he finally spoke to me, his facial expression and tone felt dismissive, like I wasn't worth the time. He did give me the information I needed, so I got what I came for. But the overall interaction didn't sit right with me. It felt like I was being judged based on how I looked or what I brought in. A customer is still a customer, no matter what they walk in with. Just sharing my experience so others know what they might expect.
