They are experts in their industry and have been in the business since the 1980s! They had a very wide selection of crystals and all were very reasonably priced. They had cards out to help guide you towards what you were looking for. Wish we lived local so we could continue visiting and purchasing from them, but at least they ship throughout the US!

We not only will never buy from them again, we source elsewhere. What is wrong with their marketing and senior management team?

I have a long history with Vision Quest Metaphysical Bookstore. Maybe since 1997. I wrote a Yelp…read morereview for this store years ago but maybe 40% of my older reviews just disappeared from Yelp. I used to go to this bookstore when they were in Scottsdale on Thomas Road and Oak Streets. I make and sell metaphysical jewelry that I design mostly necklaces from semi-precious stones for healing and well-being. I used to consign my jewelry at the Scottsdale store and everything sold within 3 months. It was so easy I just bring it there and then pick up my check later. But when Vision Quest moved to the Phoenix location, the clientele there was vastly different from Scottsdale and it's tourists, and Phoenecians didn't want to buy my jewelry at the $60 prices for necklaces that the store sold them for. Owner Apryl told me Phoenician customers bought candles and incense and got readings. So April didn't let me consign jewelry anymore as it would stay in the store unsold for a year. But I go to the Phoenix store now and get regular readings by psychic reader Toney He's very good and accurate in business matters. Sometimes I talk to him almost every week or two times a week. My life is very in need of direction right now I'm making big financial ventures which Toney advises me on. Apryl is a good reader too but the staff tells me she's not doing readings for store customers now.

Vision Quest was my gateway drug into all things WooWoo. Back when it was on Scottsdale Road, I…read morewandered in and basically fell headfirst into crystals, incense, and candles like some kind of spiritual Alice in Wonderland. It was my first real intro to this world, and honestly, it launched me into the practices that are now just... my life. So yes, Vision Quest and I go way back. Then, like any long-term relationship, the shine wore off. I started hearing whispers in school about them not clearing the space, and once I noticed it myself, the vibe felt a little off. Combine that with discovering other shops that had better prices and fresh energy? Yeah, I strayed. Cut to tonight: my go-to WooWoo dealer (aka my favorite candle spot) was CLOSED. Dire situation. My altar was looking at me like, "You really gonna let me go dark?" So, I dragged myself over to Vision Quest. And you know what? The whole vibe felt different... lighter, fresher, like someone saged the place within an inch of its life. I actually caught myself thinking, "Wait, why did I stop coming here again?" Candles acquired. Yes, they were a whopping 50¢ instead of my usual 30¢ (so, call me thrifty), and the wax felt like it came from a slightly less fancy bee or paraffin farm. But in an emergency? Totally did the job. And so, Vision Quest is like that ex you bump into years later and think, "Huh... maybe they got their act together." I may not be back every week, but I'm definitely glad it's still around when the WooWoo emergencies hit.

**July 2026: Thursday Afternoon Visit**…read more My friend and I were visiting Phoenix during a 110-degree heat wave and desperately needed something to cool us down, so I went searching and came across Sphinx Date Co Palm & Pantry. The date milkshake sounded too good to pass up, so my friend and I made the drive out to Scottsdale for a little afternoon treat--and it was absolutely worth it. As soon as we walked in, the shop owner was incredibly warm and welcoming. She offered us a sample of a Medjool date, and wow--it was plump, rich, and had this deep caramel-like sweetness that instantly sold me. You can really taste the quality. We each ordered a large date milkshake, and it was everything I hoped for. It tasted clean and simple in the best way--like it's made with just dates, milk, and ice cream (which is typically what a classic date shake includes). It was creamy, naturally sweet, and super refreshing in the Arizona heat. I also loved that the store carries a variety of Arizona-made local products, which made souvenir shopping so easy. They had everything from BBQ sauce and hot sauce to wines and cactus candy. I ended up picking up a few sauces and some jumbo Medjool dates to bring home as gifts. The owner also shared that they carry different types of dates depending on the season. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their Sphinx dates, which she described as having a thinner skin and a more honey-like flavor--apparently available in late summer. Overall, I really loved this shop, its mission, and the quality of its products. This is definitely a spot you'll want to bookmark for your next Phoenix trip.
