5.00They treat you like they know you! It was an awesome experience from walking in, it wasn’t busy, so they placed us near the heat(Nov), we panned our bucket of sand & rocks, to where we had our Aquarium, my husbands birthstone, they sent off to be cut and mounted in a silver pendant and earrings! We had the most fun. Also purchased a bucket of rocks for our Grandson. Thank you
