I have left many voicemails and sent numerous emails and he will not respond. I now am out the cost of $700.00 and have to hire another appraisal company. I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau and States Attorney's office.

Paul responded quickly to my inquiry for a real estate appraisal and his rate was comparable to others in the area. Paul arrived promptly, took pictures and answered my questions.

He had retired and was "Helping out a friend". Guaranteed that all the pictures of the interior of my home would not be put out on any emails,etc. Said they were just for his use only. Showed up 40 minutes before our appointment- I wasn't home from work yet. End result- he sent the pictures to my ex, his attorney, who sent them to my attorney and then myself. Compared my home to houses not even close to the size/rooms of my house. Priced it exactly what my ex told him to. Only took pictures that avoided problems in the house. I would not recommend him.

I'd gotten a quote (which took about 10 days) at another local jeweler and felt strongly I was being very over-charged. At Bryn Mawr I was attended by Emmett, who was friendly and helpful. I wanted to do a fixed pendant for the diamond in the engagement ring and make cluster earring from the small stones in the wedding band. Emmett helped me pick a chain and ensured they had a clear picture of what I wanted for the reasons, then provided a full quote including the purchase of the scrap gold. It was about 40% less than I was previously quoted. I paid the deposit and hoped for a good outcome! I picked up my new jewelry Sunday and couldn't be happier! It's all beautiful and exactly what I envisioned. The pics don't do it justice. These are lovely and can be passed down one day.
