“Been dealing with Robert at coastal coin for some years now and this place has built a reputation, with me and in the community, for being honest and respectable. It's extremely hard, these days, to find persons/businesses with values and integrity. By far the best coin shop in the 941 area... hands down. I am not a paid spokesperson. Haha. But in all seriousness, if you're looking to buy or sell precious metals, this is the place to go!!”
“The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime is one of my favorite spots for local shopping in Sarasota. It’s an indoor indie market in Sarasota with a rotating mix of local vendors and artists, so it’s easy to find creative, unique gifts—and half the fun is hearing the stories behind what people make and sell.
They also do a great job keeping things fun with events throughout the month, so there’s always something new happening.
And don’t skip Hamlet’s Eatery in the courtyard. The burger and fries are excellent, the specials are always worth checking out, and the vegetarian and vegan options are so good that even a meat-eater will be happy.
If you’re looking for unique gifts in Sarasota and want to support local makers and small businesses, The Bazaar is a great stop.”
“Rick was absolutely wonderful to work with and talk to, very nice, easy going and knowledgeable about many things, he's been in the business 40 years and as I observed just being in the store for several transactions, pays top dollar if you have coins, gold, silver or jewelry to sell. Highly recommend, I'll go back to him, it was a pleasurable and fair experience which he made very easy.”
“Thank you to Jim at Suncoast for his help reviewing my stamp collection. He knows his stuff and doesn't play games. Very direct and straightforward. The shop itself is small but trust me, it's a goldmine of expertise.”
“I am from California and I’ve been doing business with this shop for maybe a little over a year or so. If your looking for Quality, This is your go to shop. They provide Quality customer service, Quality merchandise, very reasonable prices and trustworthy! I rate Lorin and his employee (Madeline) who is fantastic to deal with high ratings ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Ben at Sarasota Numismatics was excellent to work with. They have a nice quality, unique and highly diverse inventory. All the pieces were properly described and the items were packed with great care & fast shipping. Every nuance and inquiry of the transaction was handled very speedily with quick email responses in great detail. Will do business with Sarasota Numismatics again for certain. Many thanks, Steve”
“Always my first stop for craft supplies. Good staff on the floor to help. Only wish is that they call for cashiers a bit quicker for long lines. Even with lines it's worth shopping here.”
“Any kind of craft you could care to do the supplies are here. I appreciate the fabric and sewing section now that Joanns is gone. Love the self checkout. Intuitive and quick.”
“This shop has been around as long as I can remember. Great guys in here, super friendly and are super easy to talk to. I'm not into model railroading, but I am into model kits and supplies that are shared and they have the stuff I need.”
