Next year when I come back to Quartzite I might buy some sandwiches and chicken to bbq back at camp.

On a work trip to Quartzite, I had a day off to go adventure and see what cool things I could find…read more A lovely local pointed me in the direction of the Main Street, since I was looking for some cool crystals or even some native jewelry. I found Main Trading Post, attached to Outback Pizza, I was instantly intrigued by the enormous "Worlds Largest Belt Buckle" hanging out front, along with some cool wood carvings, and a bear in the window with an amazing crystal necklace hanging from its neck. I think I may have found what I'm looking for! Upon entering, I was greeted by Jim. He was super helpful and answered any questions I had while there. I was able to take my time and take in all the different and unique items on offer. From native jewelry, bows and arrows, knives, crystal jewelry galore, moccasins, beaded animals, lots of beautiful items and great selection for gifting! In the glass cases there were many items that were real silver, and each had a sign stating they were 50% off their sticker price. I ended up getting several rings, a beautiful beaded hummingbird to hang in my car, and some cute little Knick knacks for my toddlers, really happy I stopped in this store! I will definitely be back when I pass through Quartzite again. Main Trading Post is definitely worth a visit if you want a good deal, and a unique piece for yourself or a loved one.

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.

It's gritty and real, far less commercialized than gem shows you typically find at fairgrounds. A large majority of the vendors here are true rockhounds, who have a passion for what they do. Many of these guys are the ones that found the rocks they are selling. So you will find much more raw material here, bulk rock, and other wholesale-type deals. There are giant amethyst stalagmites, barrels of agates, large quartz crystals, fossils, and every kind of stone you can imagine. Since the people are real and own the stuff they are selling, the prices can be negotiable, too. So if you like to haggle, haggle away. Especially if you are buying large amounts of stuff. The show is also huge, and it's unlikely that you could finish in one day. I know there's no way I could, and didn't when I passed by even though I wished for more time. Maybe it's because I have always marvelled at the amazing number of permutations that nature creates with what is essentially, dirt. Millions of years in the ground cooking and bam, awesome crystals, intricate patterns, beautiful colors. I only made it through about one third of the show in two hours. Overall, if you are up for an adventure and looking for something fun to do, the Desert Gardens Rock, Gem, and Mineral Show will definitely be worth the trip. Five stars all the way.

Love that there were papers with descriptions for many of the stones. My next stop to Quartzite, I'm headed straight to Road Runner Rocks to get some more cool gifts. Definitely a must see place if you're in the area!
