Gunjah the Bead Forest

Rude wanna-​be hipster behind the counter likes to eye roll and sigh when asked anything. I refuse to give my money to a place that employs such inconsiderate «help» and I use the term loosely. Sad too because I went in to drop $ 80 on a new board game. Their loss.

I had such a great experience on my last visit here to Gunjah. So I ask my husband to make a stop there on our way to our family reunion. I really wished I hadn’t.
We walked in and we were the only customers in the store. I walked to the back door where the «smoke shop» is hidden. My husband noticed the sign asking to check our IDs before we entered. So we walked back over to the two people behind the counter. They both didn’t even look up at us. We stood there for at least a minute until one of them acknowledged us and looked at out our IDs.
We entered through the «secret» door that keeps all the smoking accessories and other interesting items hidden from the kids.
It didn’t take long for me to find what I wanted, but I was still waiting for someone to come and help me. Finally, they did and I was instructed to go back out the door to the register. Both people that helped me almost seemed annoyed that we were there. I even had to ask for a bag that the cashier begrudgingly gave to me.
This place has great potential and on my previous visit had great customer service. I get that they have very few smoke shops in Cedar City, but still a smile and a bag for my purchase aren’t to much to ask for. I definitely will not be stopping in here again.

This place is a bead, jewlry, gaming shop. I went in with my kids looking for a fun game to pick up. Immediately we were given a warm welcome. The gentleman benhind the counter was warm and genuine with plenty of ideas, and he knew his stuff. He even kept the attention of a hungry pouty 3-​year old. In the end we bought several sets of dice for the kids and left with free dice bags. Rarely do I meet shop owners these days who know their product, walmart is killing expertise for low wage, could-​care-​less employees. This was a breath of fresh air. Nice place, friendly, knowledgeable, and local. I will definitely be spending more money here in the future.
