The moment I stepped inside, it felt like walking into a time capsule -- where old school charm meets modern creativity!! With vintage Jet magazines to the classic vinyl records, glass dishes, and unique clothing pieces, every corner carried a nostalgic energy. It brought back that feeling of when things felt free, fun, and authentic. Big Emotions isn't just a shop -- it's an experience.And soon, they'll be offering sewing classes! I can't wait to join and finally learn how to sew more than just a button

Every single person on…read morestaff is incredibly friendly, very patient when I have questions whether it be about what kind of modifications on a piece are possible, pricing, or even if I'm just curious perusing their stunning displays of jewelry. I love that they also deal in vintage items as well as Rolex sales and maintenance. And no brand or need is too small! The watches I wear to work are not particularly fancy but I like them. Sizing, new batteries, etc. Every time I have been here with any type of item I'm very pleased. Including the restoration of the necklace my grandmother wore for her 1952 wedding! I send all my clients here when they mention a need Mayfair Jewelers might be help with and hear glowing reviews from many of them as well.

We went for it and tried it out and boy am I glad we did! As soon as we walked in we were immediately greeted and asked if we needed help. I said we were there for engagement rings and the woman pointed us in that direction and stated she would get someone out to help us. Not even three minutes pass and a woman came out to help us. I had no idea what I liked, wanted or style I was looking for. She had a lot of patience, was very good at explaining things, took her time and most importantly listened to what we were saying. Our experience here was absolutely wonderful.

I happened to be shopping here with my daughter who bought a lovely pair of diamond earrings with…read moreLynn's assistance. We were so happy with the service that my husband and I returned to buy a woman's Omega Constellation watch. They adjusted the links to fit my wrist. At the time of purchase, they did not have the international warranty card for said watch. This raised a red flag, since any luxury watch without the warranty card is practically worthless. Upon purchase, I was told that they would mail a copy to me. This is not the norm as I have purchased luxury watches before. I happily wore my new watch out the store, That same evening, the link suddenly fell off the watch. To my dismay and horror, this has never happened to me before. I was lucky to catch the watch before it fell to the ground. I was extremely upset all weekend and the jeweler was closed on Sunday. I was unable to remedy the situation until early Monday morning. It's quite a drive back to Northeastern Fine Jewelry as I don't live near there. When I explained what happened to the salesman, he was unapologetic and made no attempt to make things right. After such a traumatic experience, I completely lost faith in their workmanship and decided to return the watch. The salesman silently and awkwardly processed the return transaction and was very unsympathetic. This has been the worst shopping experience and it makes me wonder how they are even an authorized Omega watch dealer.

I was happy to find gift items I usually can only find online but I love much more to support local and see what I am getting in person (and not have to pay shipping fees.) I picked up unusual gift items that I can't find online as well. I was only in the area to visit, but I will definitely make my way up here again if only to visit this store because it's worth going out of the way for.

For a thrifting shopper, this place was nice to find while on a road trip in upstate NY. I wanted small dishes and they had them. They also had furniture but it was closing time when I got there; didn't have time to see it all. The shopkeeper was really cool to stay open for me though. I suppose that's worth another star, though he said that the items were there from 140 sellers and some of them take shifts to watch the store. So don't know if it's policy to stay open if there's a late shopper. Since there are so many sellers represented, the stock was quite varied with a range of prices. Some items were things I had been looking for, like a cooking turner with an angled handle for flipping food in deep pans, a ceramic pate dish, and a tabletop salt dish. There were lots of salt dishes for $5 each. It was worth it for me, not having to search thrift shops for one anymore. It was worth the stop and would definitely go back.
