This is actually inside the Avalon Antiques shop…read more The owner has a table where he inspects the records by hand for scratches and other flaws. He cleans up the records and puts them in a plastic record bag with pricing on the outside. Everything on the top of the table is guarenteed to play and are all the cleaned records. Everything is sorted by genre and are in alphabetical order making things easier to find. All of the bottom "bargain bins" are $2 or less and aren't inspected but of the few I've gotten from these bins work just fine. You could spend over an hour in here looking and still find something new. I highly recommend coming here and looking for old records.

This local business in Kuna is perfect for you if you want new books at a good price, which are lightly used, or if you have books that you just don't have room for or aren't reading them anymore, bring them there! Plus, when you do bring them there, you get credit that you can spend by a certain date in the store, or your kids could pick out some croc charms for free! Overall, my experience was great, and I got rid of books that I don't read anymore, and I was able to pick out new ones just like that!

It was a pleasure to meet with Marvin Tanner. He was kind and I was treated as a very valued…read morecustomer. Not something I experienced with a different gold dealer in Boise. Marvin explained every step to me as he performed tests on my gold jewelry I was there to sell. He answered every question I had. He showed me the difference in plated gold, filled gold and how many karts of gold, were in each piece. I had a lot of German gold and that was unexpected and fun to learn how he could tell. I found the whole experience fascinating, even exciting as each piece was evaluated. Marvin really does show you the SCIENCE, MATH and VALUE of your refined gold. Everything was OPEN and HONEST. If you are looking for HONESTY and INTEGRITY, GEM STATE GOLD & SILVER is the place and MARVIN TANNER is the man. I will be doing business with GEM STATE GOLD & SILVER again! Robin A. Boise

I had called and spoke with other gold buyers, and then I called Gem State gold and silver Marvin answered the phone I told him the things I had been told and how much they would pay and that they didn't remove channel laid Diamonds. Marvin told me he could remove them safely, pay more for the gold, and about his ability to give me confirmation of exactly what I had with his high tech equipment. He explain the process. He made me feel so confident in his knowledge and skill in his trade I met with him the next day. Not only was he honest and did everything he said he'd do. Such as let me watch and he explain to me exactly what and why he does each test. He never once made me feel ignorant he explained things scientific as well as in layman terms. As an additional bonus he is funny, and quick witted. The floor show was worth paying for...he kept me laughing. I think anyone who wants to feel safe, and confident in the person your dealing with Marvin is your guy. Everything he told was true and honest. I highly recommend Gem state gold and silver. Marvin thank you.
