    Oh Artifax, you will forever hold a very special place in my heart for this is where I met the…read morefirst guy I every loved. I was so young (and looked so much older), he was working behind the counter with his deep voice and long blonde hair. We still remained friends after 20 plus years and stepping back here would surely bring back all of these amazing memories!! In fact, I think I'm going to stop by soon! The next time he's in from Hawaii maybe we'll have to meet up here just for kicks :) The patchouli smell and perusing the carefully selected goods placed in this tiny shop across from Roosevelt Mall would be so nostalgic! This review is probably useless to those who vape or use e-cigarettes as I know nothing about that and am strictly writing this for selfish reasons. Anyway, I used to come here for patches, tie dyes, all things Dead and Nag Champa. Ok, and maybe a few other pretty glass items way back when. This was THE hot spot back in the day and and I'm glad to see it remains so even as the neighborhood has changed. If I still purchased these items I would absolutely make the trip up here and recommend if you need anything similar, you do so too! The prices were always fair and the quality, excellent. There's no other place to go, really. I promise. So glad to see Mindy and Larry still work here decades later. They were always the sweetest! They know what they're talking about and can definitely answer any questions you may have. They are very professional yet very chill people. I hope Artifax in all it's grooviness lives on forever. Fun fact: the owner opened the business in this spot which is part of the basement of his mother's house back in the 70's. Way cool. That's one hip mama! Go Mrs B.

    Not surprised to hear they finally closed. Unfortunately, I only remember the bad experiences I had…read morethere. Got a bad vibe from the place. Guy asked me my age when I tried to buy my first bong (these days it's okay to use that term), and I lied because I was underage. Then he asks my birthdate, and I get the year wrong. He's good at math and realizes I'm lying. DENIED! Had to have my mother go in for me and buy the bong. After that first experience, I never liked the place. It was easier to buy weed (another term that's fine to use nowadays) than it was to buy from there. Also, like many other people noticed, they were expensive. With the environment around marijuana these days and remembering my experiences there, their policies and attitudes seem even stupider. But I do understand why they had to be that way after reading the news article about their closing and the busts. For me, it was a place to avoid if possible. Good riddance!
