I really needed money to pay my mortage, so stupidly I took my grandmother's engagement ring (2 carats) from the early 1900s in a platinum setting, and other pieces of really nice find jewelry I collected over the years. They asked me what money I needed. I told them the amount (less than $2,000) and that's what they gave me. They saw a fool a mile away, and took advantage of me. I admit I was desperate and they knew it from the look on my face. I later went into the store to see what they priced one of the rings. It was a ruby surrounded by diamonds. I was shocked that they called it "an estate piece" when it was purchased new about two years before. Never ever go to this place!!!

The manager of this place would not service me due to my religion and he wasted my time and played me and my mother for fools. He wouldn't give us prices for the jewelry, he would leave the store and we would wait for him to come back because he was the only one who had the prices, and after almost 2 hours we finally decided to purchase two rings. As the sales woman was filling out the receipt he YELLED at my mother and I from across the store embarrassing us to death, and stated that the rings were not for sale. It was evident from the moment we walked in that he was prejudice because he gave us dirty looks and wouldn't give us the time of day what-so-ever. Never give your money to people like this! There is only one manager who works there all the time so you can't escape him!
