A Broader Concept

A Broader Concept is by far the ultimate crystal and mineral shop in the southern nh region. The couple who own the shop, Craig and Sharon, are absolutely the most knowledgeable and honest people that I know in this industry. They take great pride in offering only the best quality merchandise, and they are always very fair on pricing so you never have to worry about spending more on something than it is worth. In fact, I can guarantee you will walk away with a great deal! They make a fantastic team and a lovely couple too! They have filled their shop with many gorgeous one-of-a-kind pieces. It is truly a lovely shopping experience! Please honor their request to leave the cell phones and small children at home when you visit. There is a good reason for it, and you will enjoy the experience much more if you do. Kathleen Wilder

Absolutely never coming back. I went there once before they closed to just check it out and saw some neat stuff. I told a few friends, then came back today with one of my friends. We drove all the way out just to go to this store and I had intended to purchase a couple of things. While browsing, my friend noticed a very tall, around 10 foot geode they have in the store. Thinking it very impressive and pretty cool she took a photo of me standing next to it. "Did you just take a photo?" A woman from behind the counter asked. We replied yes, and a man ran over and said there's no photos in here. We apologized, my friend said she would delete the photo (and did), explaining that she just wanted to show her husband. After she deleted said photo, the man asked if it was her first time in the store. She said yes, and he demanded to know "WHY WOULD YOU TAKE A PICTURE WITHOUT ASKING FIRST?" . I replied because other stores let us and he said well this one doesn't and proceeded to go on and on about how rude we were for taking a photo. We promptly left within five minutes of arriving. Will never come back, these people are SO rude and you just lost two if not a BUNCH more customers because of your rudeness. It s OK, I'll get my crystals, minerals, and fossils at Gardenia's. Also, there were NO signs saying anything about "no photos" in the store.
