Crystal River Gems

This place us amazing to say the least they had exactly what I was looking fir Amethysts Galore....you have to stop in this place you will not want to leave!!! Take a look at this stuff and the absolute beauty our earth has to hold!!

I had not been here in awhile. Place is much more organized than last I was there. Prices have gone up, but that is everywhere. There were some good deals still also though, just not on what I was looking for.Its worth a trip though just to see some of the incredible pieces they have!

Really decent rock and crystal shop. They pack in as much product as they can in such a compact space. Good selection of crystal points, specimens and semi-precious pendants. Ill definitely be back to take a closer look!

Great store with friendly staff and a very wide range of products available for purchase. They had a lot of stuff I hadnt seen before and I felt the prices were very good.There is certainly something here for every member of the family

I was so excited when I went here. They have GREAT prices and so much to look at. If Crystals are your thing, DEFINITELY check out this store. I will definitely be a regular customer from now on.

Excellent shop with excellent service the perfect wide variety of stones

Good selection and great prices that wont break the bank, Ive been able to get bigger pieces for my collection. You can also go on line and find really great deals.. The staff is knowledgeable and have a wonderful personality.

This location has a great selection of precious stones!

An excellent selection of quality rocks and select minerals. Excellent price point.

Never found a shop in Pittsburgh like this until now. Fello brujas would love this place. Real gems for a real price

So much stuff with great prices. Great for gifts.

Fast shipping and Excellent quality. Very professional. The lady I spoke with over the phone at the store was exceptionally knowledgeable and very helpful. Can’t wait to order more!!!

I’ve never been to the store before, but I order online. If I place my order in the morning they ship it out that day! With 2 day shipping! Now that is fast. Everything arrives safe and sound and thanks to Crystals River Gems I have started a side business selling crystals! I look around at other wholesale websites and CRG has not only has great prices but a huge selection of crystals and wire wrapped jewelry. I am happy returning customer.

This was such a great find while visiting family. I had a dream about a black tourmaline and came here and I found such a great selection of stones!! The girl who helped me was so nice and answered all my questions. I got a beautiful black tourmaline for such a good price for the size! Pleasantly surprised and will come here when Im in town visiting family!

This place blew my mind in terms in crystal places I have visited. Their prices are so affordable that I walked away paying only $60 whereas other places I would have easily spent nearly $150 for the same crystals. The quality of the gems are rated and shown in many places. Staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Its a drive from where I live, but I doubt Ill be buying crystals anywhere else from now on.

The best crystal shop in Downtown Pittsburgh. Customer Service was great today. I always visit in person. They have SUPER 7! Omg I wanted more of it and at the BEST price I have seen for a Super 7 yet!! Not kidding. The price for Super 7 here even beat Etsy prices! And I love keeping my purchases local.I got some AMAZING Labradorite eggs! Seriously how often do you find Labradorite in that shape right? Had to get it. They were huge and only $6.50 each!Got some amazing banded carnelian for $2.00 a piece.Amethyst lover? This place is a MUST. From spheres to druzy to cages. You gotta see it for yourself!I have been a loyal customer for 10 years now.

Im a spiritualist, and go here every month for supplies. Would not go anywhere else.

I had such a great experience with Crystal River Gems. Once I placed my order the items arrived really fast and they were in great condition! Definitely will be placing more orders from here soon.

A wide selection of crystals! Raw cut and polished. Just the stone or made ready to be put on a necklace. This place has got you covered! Great pricing and wide array of options to fit your needs! Friendly, helpful, and knowledgable staff!

A very good retailer of gemstones. I do not recommend ordering anything on their website. I ordered some gems off of their website years ago and they will not stop sending me spam mail no matter how many times I unsubscribe. Not a great business practice

Awesome place for finding wonderful gems both polished and unpolished. Very reasonable prices. You must stop in even just to be amazed by the selection.

Incredible selection. Amazing staff. Insanely good prices. Cannot say enough good things about shopping online and in store. Love this place.

A beautiful place with lots and lots of options to buy from. The staff is also super helpful and very friendly. They have some amazing beautiful pieces. If u are looking for something different, then this is the place to go.

This is my happy place! If you are a gem collector, they will never disappoint. Always a substantial inventory. Great and knowledgeable staff. Worth a second and third look - always.

Do not buy the cab assortment, it is bad. The picture is not an accurate description. We received junk, some items were very badly pitted, others were actually tumbled stones, not a flat spot on them! Some of them were broken, the quality of this is so poor they are good for nothing. I tried to call them to talk about it, no answer and the voice mail is full. I will not buy from them again unless they make this right. Also note, I bought other cabs that were supposed to be higher grade, they are still not good quality. Beware.

Incredible selection and prices. Awesome employees.

The prices were good and very large selection but the staff almost seemed uninterested and didnt want to be there.

I walked in for the first time today around 1:30pm looking for something very specific, I was overwhelmed with all the small bins everywhere you turn. I observed at least four women in the store talking about Game of Thrones. I looked around for at least seven minutes as employees walked pass me not saying one word. Finally another woman walked in and within the first minute of her entering she was asked if she could be helped. I was appalled! Disappointed at the obvious, I walked out refusing to spend my money in such a place. I could say more but I’d rather not, at the very least they have very poor customer service.

Definitely leave a lot of extra time to pool around, because theres a ton in here! Staff is very nice and knowledgeable. Also, store is open until 4 on Saturday, not 3!

Favorite place to shop. The people are grreat! Very knowledgeable and helpful!!

Ordered 15 agate slices online, they all came safe and looked so beautiful! Very happy with our order and would order from Crystal River Gems!

Beautiful, unique gifts, many of which are wonderful examples of naturally occurring materials.

Ive purchase multiple times and was never disappointed.

Has a wide variety of ever growing/changing inventory. Definitely one of my top places to shop!

Such an amazing choice and really helpful staff - highly recommend a visit

Absolutely wonderful! Well packaged and quickly shipped. Everything is the quality that was described online, and they refunded me for the one item that was out of stock. I will definitely be placing another order in the future! Thank you all so much!

The store is such a fun place-loads and loads of beautiful loose gems and bins of pendant gemstones, bracelets, and so much more. Such great prices and friendly staff.

NOT ABLE TO HELP WITH METAPHYSICAL QUESTIONS, NO OTHER SPIRITUAL ITEMS BUT I AM HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASES

Amazing customer service!!!! Management will make sure your satisfied.Great selection of gems and minerals.

Its a good place to get you gemstones

Great location and stock. Definitely coming back.

Huge selection and nice to deal with. we make a trip there from Cleveland a few times a year

Always a pleasure coming here! We are life long customers ️

Great stones, but the customer service is upsetting. The store manager does not seem to care about retaining long-term, loyal customers. They made a mistake on the pricing of some items, and they would not honor the price listed on their website. I was told to either pay the difference, or cancel the order. This is very unprofessional. While they may not have listed a price that was beneficial to them, it was their mistake and the seller should honor the listed price. This goes against all basic rules of customer service. Really disappointing given that Crystal River Gems had become my go-to store for crystals. Crystals are used for positive energy work, and I like to buy my crystals from people who are fair, kind, and who do what is right when they are in the wrong.

A very awesome place for me and my wife are not to take your kids because they dont know what they like everything is shiny and beautiful and youre like worser than kid a candy store seriously million-dollar Investments

Love this place

Surprisingly affordable, staff was very nice and patient. i got a piece of a 15 mil year old meteor for twelve bucks

Ive purchased many items from this shop, and have had absolutely wonderful experiences each time. I am an avid repeat customer, and will continue to return, as the service is always prompt, the items are always well packaged, and the contents are always beautiful and high quality. I had an issue with USPS stealing the items from one of my packages. Once I contacted the shop, they were extremely quick to respond, resolve the matrer, and send a new package. I highly recommend this shop for high quality and affordable treasures.

This is a fabulous one of a kind store. The rocks are high quality and beautiful!! The customer service is excellent and the owner has always been helpful when I have been in the store. I would highly recommend it for unique gifts. There is no other place that compares if you live gems and other pretty things

By far hands down the BEST place in the city to find crystals and tumbled stones..Awesome selections even some hard to find things..I stop every time I am in the city

My name is Krista and I own an Apothecary and Coaching business. I have chosen to consistently purchase all of our crystal rings and crystals from Jim and his team of amazing, friendly rock lovers! My son (age 8) picks out our crystals and Jim’s crystal selection is received by our Apothecary community the fastest . Our clients are happy and post consistently (on Instagram) the crystals and gems they invest in. Our favorites so far are the agate rings, serpentine, pink tourmaline polished rocks, and pyrite. So many amazing rocks. Finally, this is our crystal shop choice moving forward. We have had one full restock recently and are thrilled with selenite plates and palm stones we just picked up. This place rocks! Thank you for helping us bring our soulful dream to life at Live True! See more of our Apothecary and crystals @livetruehealing on Instagram.

I placed a very special and specific order for and arrowhead, to be used in our grandson s Boy Scout crossing over ceremony. I received my order very quickly. The arrowhead was exactly what I needed. I want to thank TAYLOR for taking the time to hand pick the stone that I needed. Please let him know that I thank him for his extra attention!! I would definitely order from here again!

Cool stuff great prices

First off I hate that I feel that I need to write a review. My first and last experience with Crystal River gems leaves me with mixed feelings. Starting with the positive the agate slices are absolutely beautiful and the shipping was extremely fast. As for the negative aspect of my experience. Immediately after ordering online I realized I did not input my coupon code that was emailed to me. I quickly emailed the company to see if they could add the coupon code and included a screenshot of my email I had from them with the coupon code. I received no response! The next day I spoke with a girl named Bunny and explained my situation and she told me that the owner Jim would call me back. no response! The next day I call again and spoke with Bunny and she seemed shocked that I did not receive a response and left another message. Yet again no response! I finally received agates. 5 out of the 6 are exactly what I ordered. As for the 6th agate that I had cherry picked, (an extra $1) was completely replaced by a different agate color other than what I had requested. Yet again I call to inquire why the agate was sent in the first place and why no one called me to tell me they could not find that specific color. Another message was left for Jim. I wait till the end of the day to hear from him and no response. I finally get a ding on my phone stating that $1 (cherry picking fee) had been refunded. I am so disappointed. I find the business ethics to be cowardly and sneaky. Forcing customers to purchase items they did not request and put them in the position to be charged a 15% restocking fee due to their unwillingness to properly correspond or take responsibility is shameful. Beautiful product but poor business practices. I would even be scared to shop in store if this is how they handle discrepancies.

I ordered rocks from this company the shipping came to be 30.00 the rocks were 40.00 I received damaged rocks that looked nothing like the picture. My tracking number was switched during the process so my order was lost in the mail. It finally came to my house 3 weeks after ordering and the rocks were broken. My total came to 100.00 with exchange rate. This company is a rip off and do not sell what is promised. I weighed my rocks and 4 of the 13 packages I received were UNDER weight. Overall horrible experience and I do not recommend ever do business with these people. It was like they picked the ugliest rocks from the lot and sent them, and save the good ones for pictures. When I complained they directed me to their website and told me they couldn’t help me, to contact other people about my issues. I told them my order was lost in the mail and they told me to contact the post office and that “oops” my tracking number changed. Never will buy or reccomend this company to anyone. Rip off.

Ive bought many items here, from rings and necklaces to gemstones and crystals. Jim, the owner, is knowledgeable about his inventory and the staff are helpful as well.

I love this place and the people took care of me was wonderful this place is amazing

Staff was very helpful. Great sales

Awesome selections of gems and minerals. Staff was very nice.

Ordered online, sent me two incorrect items. Refunded me for the one (chrysocolla), and never responded for the other (flourite). Dissappointed. When you order online, you should be able to expect the items you paid for.UPDATE: reached out to me and sent me the correct size, all other items were correct and great

Great selection and great prices

I really liked this place. They have a rather large selection of rough cut stones that I havent found anywhere else yet

Tons of cool things to choose from for your future geologist.

Awesome selection of crystals, stones, minerals and other neat things. Prices are reasonable. I love this store, wish it was closer for me!

Awsome experience!! Sales peoples were very curtious, non pushy, knowlegable, and helpful.And overall selection was impressive. Highly reccomend

Great place great prices.

They have gems stone earrings or mske your own supples place

Loved the energy there!! Wonderful service

Nice Crystals not so good service

Great vibe and great assortment of soulful loose stones to adjust your mood.

It is a very neat place, if youre into gems and things that shine

Great selection, and helpful staff

Was going to check out another place nd almost every review said it was the worst energy walking in so Im really excited to check this place out tomorrow!!!! Yea!!

Excellent selection. Fair amount of beads on strings. Lots of gems and stones. Great prices. Friendly staff.

Im a huge rock buff, and before discovering this store I would often trek to other shops or order online to get my rock fixes. Often when I did, what I found were overpriced specimens that varied wildly in quality and were often mislabeled or misidentified as something else that was rarer/more mystical. Not so here! Crystal River Gems is my new go-to -- everything in the shop is labeled clearly and accurately, and if there are any questions about stone ID, the owner can answer them adroitly with no uncertain dithering. Plus, their rocks and minerals are some of the most affordable samples Ive seen on offer anywhere -- you can literally buy a five-pound hunk of jasper for twelve bucks. The loose tumbled stones are also well worth a visit. The quality of these is top-notch, plus they often have larger pieces and jewelry findings on offer as well. My only critique is that I wish there were more large palm stones or unique offerings (like stones with inclusions, etc), but honestly, this is the most top-notch gem shop Ive ever seen, and Ill be back many times to come!

I recieved my order very quickly and the amethyst crystals I bought from CrystalRiverGems are beautiful. I am very pleased and will definitely be a returning customer

My wife’s rock heaven! Great selection. Excellent prices.

Love it! They have it all!

They have great stones but TERRIBLE customer service. Their gold necklaces are gold plated and crap after one day. I received broken stones and have had no response to my complaints. Their website says my shipping orders dont exist and they dont answer the phone. Dont order online from them.

When I had my wedding there was no doubt in my mind where I should get my gifts for my bridesmaids, something for everyone and absolutely wonderful prices. They also are always generous enough to help people out when they have an issue with something that they own. Just today I asked them to place fix my grandmothers bracelet and they did it for no charge. Wonderful ppl and wonderful autmoshere.

Travel a ways to get here and well worth the trip. Great selection!

I ordered online, and Crystal River Gems exceeded my expectations. Shipping was fast, and the stones I selected were more beautiful in person!

Very disappointed with their customer service. Their mailbox is always full and they will not add any items to your order once you place it online. This will be the last time I ever buy from them. I have 3 other suppliers and always chose them 1st for my biz, never again.

Best shop for the industry and place to work.....we have dedicated and high customer return rate

I NEVER write reviews but I HAD to let you know how happy I am that I gave this company my business. I live in California and I ordered on the 17th & received my gems on the 20th, mind you this was over the weekend. I was not expecting them to come so quickly. Also, the pictures online only display half of the beauty of these gems. I fell in love with them when I opened my package. I could tell the handling of these gems was extremely careful by the way they were wrapped. Everything was in tact nothing was broken. I ordered several items and they were all labeled as I had requested. Thank you so much from my business to yours. I will continue to order online here! - Jamila_Namaste

Awesome hidden little gem and rock store.

Great selection of crystals and friendly service.

Was lots of help with what I needed.
