I've been going to Burnie's forever, had their cool bumper sticker on my last car. Parking is a problem, but not too bad. I don't like that they are closed are Mondays, I've been there a few times on Mondays because I forgot. I like it better when they were more into Crystals and less into just jewelry and their prices for jewelry are very high, but their service to fix stuff is the best. No where else in town can you get a jump ring put on or have a chain repaired like Burnie's and fairly reasonable! Very helpful and nice staff - well staffed too! Great prices on tumbled and rough stones/crystals but staff is totally not knowledgeable of stone attributes or are playing dumb for some kind of legal reasons(which is what I think!). So that's a drag.
I'm a Crystal Healer and love crystals and stones so not being able to ask the healing properties of a particular crystal/stone that caught my eye is frustrating.
