I didn't feel pressured to purchase and the lady working was so nice. My son is in a very serious rock and gem phase. He examines everything top to bottom and asked a hundred questions. The gal working knew every rock and where each was sourced and was so knowledgeable and sweet with my kiddo. Everything was nice quality and they had some nice things. We ended up with a few bracelets and a bit polished rock for my kiddo. I'm sure we'll be back for more.

A couple of the vendors are instructors for this association, adding an extra layer of expertise. I snagged a beautiful blue apatite for only $25, which I'm planning to turn into a ring. It's a bargain hunter's paradise, definitely cost-effective.

After seeing a large and the most beautiful amethyst as a base for a table, I had to have one! I was totally taken by the store.

But regardless of not finding what I was looking for I still walked away with a gorgeous chuck of raw ruby. Planning on having it made into a necklace. Unfortunately the way we came in through the building CCG was the last shop we hit and our meter was about to run out. So I had to leave before I really got into browse and shop mode. Good news is that there's a garage for the building so will definitely be parking there next time. If you're in search of crystals at wholesale prices I would highly recommend CCG.

This was my second time visiting this weekend mineral show, and I had also met them once before at…read moreanother show they were exhibiting at. They offer an incredible selection of high-quality crystals -- everything from small, affordable pieces to stunning, museum-quality specimens. While chatting with them, they kindly invited me into their warehouse, where I got to see even more amazing options. It's not often that you get to see crystals on this scale at regular shops, and one of the best things about this company is that they offer great quality pieces at almost wholesale prices. I spoke with the owner, Mr. Kai, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He patiently answered all my questions about the crystals -- their quality, grading, and pricing -- no matter how many times I asked. Kai clearly has deep knowledge and passion, and he happily explained what makes each stone valuable and unique. The entire staff is also very friendly, and I really appreciated how family-friendly the atmosphere was -- kids are definitely welcome here, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The warehouse behind the booth is full of beautiful crystals that haven't even been displayed yet, and I'm really looking forward to seeing more of them in the future. I also follow their Instagram, where they often sell new crystals through live sales. Things sell out quickly there, so being able to take my time today and choose stones while hearing about each one was such a treat. Today, I found a beautiful fluorite that they kindly gave me a discount on -- such a great deal! As I was leaving, Kai even ran after me to give me a free bonus piece -- it was absolutely gorgeous and made me so happy! Even though it takes me about an hour to get there, it's 100% worth the trip. This is truly a gem of a crystal shop, and I'll definitely be back again!
