I was very pleased with my 1st order from this company. I ordered 5lbs of ocean jasper and 2lbs of royal imperal jasper. I was so impressed that I placed another order!  The ocean jasper was nice, big pieces. No small chips or dust from this company. The royal imperial jasper stones have such a unique, shape and color that I decided to keep them in their natural form and order more to slab and polish. I just wanted to share this with you if you are wondering about ordering from this company. I'm sure you will be very pleased! |

What is really nice about the gem shop, is the fact that I live about 50 miles from them, and can go wander around and look at and touch all those beautiful rocks.
The wife and I went there for the first time, last month. It was still cold out (about 25) so all we did is look around at all the great stuff they have on the first floor,
then, we made the much anticipated walk down the stairs, to, the basement where you can pick through all some of the rough rock they have. They still have a buttload of rock outside in back of the shop. We will be going back up there when the weather gets warmer. Oh, yeah, the two women I talked to and dealt with there, were great, and patient with me. Can you tell, that I recommend the Gem Shop?

Hi 5 for this company! I've placed 3 orders with them now. Each time I received my order in 2 days!!! I think that is a great response time for a company. Each time I have been pleased with my purchases as well. |

I also ordered the 5 pounds ocean jasper from The Gem Shop. Very satisfied. Ordered on Saturday, it came on Monday. Don't know how you can get it quicker without going there.

Speaking of the Gem Shop, has anyone ever purchased the Morrisonite Jasper from them? I've been trying to find some but all of it seems way too high priced. They seem to have the most reasonable price! Any other places I could look for some good quality rough Morrisonite?

Does anyone have trouble navigating their web-site? On my computer the buttons on the left side of the screen are always 'X'd out. Great rocks, but I don't find the site user friendly.

I can't even get their page loaded. It will partially load, then stops responding. Don't know what the problem is. So, yes, their site is difficult to navigate!

Thier site is soo huge- that is where High speed is nice! When I try to go there at home (dial up) I have the same trouble! But I call them and they are very helpful and take time to discribe what they have!
