    1st time here, loved the gems. They do need more signage for newbies. Watch out for the vendors…read morethat only take cash...just throws me off as I don't ever have cash. To the Thai food vendor! Thank you so much for going above and beyond. Was amazing.

    This is definitely my favorite rock show! It totally rocks! And there aren't even any bands. Just…read morerocks. 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.

    I gotta say right off the bat: The product that I received was absolutely amazing, hands down. Now,…read morethe three star review isn't because of the quality of the product or anything, it was more or less the customer service that I've received and the shipping times. My girlfriend and I made the purchase of these acrylic blades at around November 21 last year, and albeit, it was during the holiday season AND the pandemic has been running amok, I understood why they had to delay their progress by a week. When the team emailed us to directly email them if we wanted to receive our product before Christmas, I decided to take that shot. If they couldn't, then I wholeheartedly understand, since there are other customers that they had to deal with. After I get a response saying that they would try their best to ship it to us before Christmas, I figured it was said and done. A couple days after Christmas go by and no email notifying that it was shipped, so I figured it wasn't ready yet. It's now January 6, and there still wasn't any notification, so I decided to email them again to see if there was any status or update on the blades. A day after I send the email, I magically receive a notification that the package is ready to get sent. Uhh, a little odd that it just so happened after I sent an email in regards to the status of it, but I guess it's on its way now. January 14 rolls by and I still haven't received any updates, it was still under pre-shipment. I send another email to ask if anything wrong happened to the item, to which I magically receive another notification that it's officially been retrieved by USPS. Again, I found it kind of odd that they sent it a day after I sent and email to them, but I'm still stoked that I'm receiving my package! After almost two months, I finally retrieved my package in the mail. Overall, I just hope that they start becoming a little more responsive to their customers in case a shipping problem goes wrong. I will definitely buy from them again, since their products are high quality, regardless, but I hope things improved since Christmas! UPDATE: I just found out that one of the two members tested positive for COVID and I never knew that it was the sole reason why it took awhile for the package to show up. I feel really bad.
