We were blown away by the service today from Shelley the owner and Sam her right hand lady. We have never panned for gold but have been thinking it would be a fun thing to do with our 12 year old. When we walked in the shop we felt totally out of our element. I’d never seen a dredge before and the amount of books, tools, metal detectors etc was a sight to see. I’m sure they get beginners like us in there, but they treated us like VIP’s and spent a ton of time talking through options, helping our son learn to pan for gold, etc. Wow… you would have thought we’d paid admission to get this sort of treatment. I can’t recommend this shop more highly, truly sets the bar in sporting goods customer service.

What would you do if I sang out of tune, Would you stand up and walk out on me? Not armadillo. They’d probably tell me to shut it and then help me with some mining gear with a smile. Nothing but helpful. I live in Olympia and got my gear fast. Everything i needed was in stock. Thanks.

Wow! We were in town on a Sunday & thinking about panning for gold – just something to do with the kids after the jetboat rides. My husband called to see if this shop was open. Shelley answered & said they weren’t normally open but she was at the store delivering a dredge so we should just come on by. Not only did she sell us some great beginner pans, she also gave both my kids gold panning lessons – and they got to keep the gold they found! Super, super nice folks & shop. My kids said they would give it six stars if they could!

These guys have a wide selection of mining tools and equipment to help anyone from the tenderfoot prospector to the old sourdough miner find their gold. I’d recommend them to anyone looking to get equipment at a fair price.
