Mexican border towns have what’s called«Curios», which are basically tchotchke shops. Del Sol is not a tchotchke shop. It’s a cool south of the border cultural ware store, where you can buy blankets, clothing, and even the rare Oaxacan Alebrijes, which are these small colorful wood carvings made by indigenous folks on spiritual peyote or mushroom induced highs. I often stop here on the way to my favorite Guatemalan restaurant to get Christmas or birthday presents. This time around I bought a t-shirt for $ 8.00 with the images of four famous Apaches and the logo«Original Homeland Security». Gotta love being an indigenous American. Highlights: — Silver jewelry(low prices) — Native American /Mexican crafts — Fourth Avenue location My overall thoughts: A nice place that treats it’s customers well.

I called Del Sol from San Francisco, CA, because their website was not allowing me to place an order for their Piñón Salve. Ann, who answered the phone, asked me to call their office about the website because she could not take an order over the phone. When I called the office I talked with two different men, Gordon being the second. Gordon then asked me if I could call back the next day to tell their web guy(who is on vacation until then) about the website being down. I told him I would not call back but he could take my number down and have the web guy call me back. Gordon then asked me to hang on. While he was covering the phone with his hand he said to someone in the office that there was«some bitch» on the phone. When he came back on the line I told him that I had heard him tell his co-worker that there was«some bitch» on the phone. Based on how I was treated, I decided to take my business elsewhere and want others to be aware.
