Black Market Minerals — Attraction in Hilton Head Island

Honestly its just a rock and overpriced jewlery shop.

If youre looking for a metaphysical store youre better off going to Savannah or trying Etsy. Very little incense and zero herbs & a laughable used book section of which they were charging full price for obsviously used/donated & tattered books. No CANDLES AT ALL? lol. Lots of overpirced mid-tier tumbled crystals and laughable prices for the crystals behind glass. I bought some essential oil made by them but its so watered down it smelled like nothing in my diffuser after using 1/4 of the bottle so I just threw it away.

Its a gift shop in south carolina so its exactly what you'd expect honestly. Tacky/no theme. Overpirced. Pseudo-metaphysical with literally zero focus on diveristy, anti-cultiral appropriation, or any wellness/pracitce whatsoever. Staff had zero knowlege a out anything.

Oh, and the 5$ fake cryatal carvings at checkout of the animals & mushrooms cracked me up. You can buy 48 mini carved mushrooms on Amazon for $22.

Anyway youll get exacltly what you pay for which is way too much for what little they offer.

Not to mention The "music" was a distracting series of ads and childrens video game sounds. Because the best thing to listen to when youre shopping is video game characters moaning & screaming!

Like I said, its a mid tier rock/cryatal store at best. Bad vibes. Staff have zero metaphysical knowdlege. Bad smell. Dusty inventory. Overpiced. No music. You can tell its mostly from amazon/cheap wholesale. Try Esty. Or even amazon and skip the middle man!

I cannot reccomend against this place enough. What a total waste of...

I love this store and have been visiting for years, I've probably spent several thousand dollars in the store over my time living in Hilton Head. Whenever I've visited all of the staff has been super kind and helpful, but recently I did not have that experience. I met the owner recently and she was incredibly rude and I could tell she thought I was a stupid foreigner because English isn't my first language and I have accent, even though I'm fluent in six languages so I wouldn't really consider myself a dumb foreigner (you try having six languages flowing through your brain all at once, you wouldn't speak perfect English either). I could tell that she wants people around her to feel less then and beneath her, and because of this I will never return again. Telling all of my international friends to avoid as we shouldn't feel like we're idiots because we don't speak maybe as fast or fluently as the owner may like. If she talks to customers like that, how is she talking to her employees? That makes me very scared as she had no problem being rude to me, so how is she going to talk her workers. So very disappointing as this store used to be one of my all time favorites, but there are clearly better shops on this island that are welcoming and kind to people of all backgrounds and don't make us feel like we're stupid foreigners even though I live here and am an...

My family and I went to this store a few times while on a short trip to Hilton Head in January. We loved it! It had so much cool stuff! My dad bought a large butterfly on a stand to give to my mom for Valentine's day. When my mom opened it, she noticed it had a lot of cracks in it. We live near North Myrtle Beach, so I called the store there to exchange or return it. The manager informed me that I would have to take it 4 hours away back to the Hilton Head store, which made absolutely no sense to me. I called the Hillton Head store and let them know what happened. I spoke with Ivy. She was incredibly friendly and helpful. She took pictures of the other butterflies at her store to see if we wanted to exchange for any of those. We wound up sending Ivy pictures of the cracked butterfly and our receipt, and she sent my dad a refund. She immediately turned a very frustrating situation around, and went above and beyond to demonstrate fantastic customer service. I'm not sure about the NMB store, but the HHI store gave us an all around great experience, and we will...
