She came referred to us through a trusted family member when we were looking to have existing jewelry turned into an engagement ring. She immediately made us feel that we were in good hands, taking care of every aspect of the project so that everything discussed in our consultations were turned into reality. She was always available, flexible, and genuinely excited about doing the work required. The ring produced was absolutely stunning - my fiancée and I were and are extremely happy with her work. I was always told that if you wanted something done properly, you should do it yourself. Gem Scope is the exception - they'll do a better job than you could even imagine.

The rings were of great quality, didn't tarnish, and we received several compliments on our rings. We were really sad when my partner lost his ring. I happened to drop by the store and spoke with Arra, a sales associate, who said that those rings were not in stock because they were from an old collection, but they would look around. A few days later, I received a call, and Arra had found one! We were so thrilled and happy with the exceptional service at Melanie Auld. We will consider purchasing pieces in the future, given the great experience with their service and pieces.

When I contacted Melanie Auld, I was informed that they do not offer guarantees. I was offered a replacement for an additional $50 on top of the original $150 price, or a clasp bracelet for an additional $75 that would only cost $100.00 - all this after we spent over $1000.00 on product. Personally I found these options unacceptable given the short lifespan of the original product. It is disappointing that Melanie Auld does not stand behind the quality of its jewelry. Reconsider your purchase.

I will never go back to someone who is not able to stand behind their word even if they have good prices or products. To me principles are more important!

The thought of buying an expensive diamond ring scared me. A friend of mine recalled a good…read moreexperience he had at Gente Jewellery so I went to check them out. I spoke with the owner Angelo and he basically walked me through the steps of buying a diamond (4 Ks etc). He had lots of stock so I was able to easily compare diamonds and there was no upselling at all like I experienced elsewhere. In fact he told me not to go too expensive. At the same time I was selling another piece of jewellery that I didn't need anymore. He offered me a price which basically came from a chart he had meaning that he offers everyone the same price. There's no game playing. Even though I was happy with the diamond purchase I told him I wouldn't be very smart if I just accepted the first offer and he said no problem. After going to one of the slimy jewellery buyers I saw on television (who offered me half of what Gente offered) I raced back to sell it to Angelo. I have been back several times and continue to recommend Gente Jewellery whenever I can.

I went to DFL to exchange an old gold bracelet for some 18k white gold wedding bands. Serko gave…read moreme ~$1k less for the bracelet than what it was worth. Then he said I owed him another $938 for the bands in 18k white gold. The bracelet was 35.5 grams of 14k gold. On May 27, '25 , 14k gold was $85.40/g, totalling $3031.70, ..he gave me $2000. When I realized the mistake 1 hour later, I called him and he said he had already sent it to his refiner and the refiner said it was only 11k gold. This was after Serko did 2 acid tests on the bracelet right in front of me. Yesterday I went and picked up the wedding bands, I gave him the $938 as I cannot admit to my fiance that I have been scammed. The 2 bands have a total weight of 12.5 grams, and as 18k white gold is 75% gold and 25% nickle, that is a total of 9.375g of gold, or $800.63. With the theft of $1000 in the sale of the bracelet and the additional $938, I paid $3938 for 2 rings that have ~$800 worth of gold in them. Of course there is labour in the making of the rings , but not $3k. I feel dumb and duped.

I was honestly so traumatized by my experience here…read more The first time we came here, it was because we were in the area. We didn't have an appointment, but we were still greeted by Armen. Armen was nice and he gave us a quick overview on how Diamonds for Less works. He told us it's usually the last stop for people who've already shopped around a bit and know what they want. With that, we left and visited more shops to get an idea of what we wanted. Then we booked an appointment and came back a few weeks later. This is where it went downhill very quickly. Our appointment was with Serko. Based on other reviews, we thought it would be a great experience. It was quite the opposite. To start, he didn't even greet us or ask for our names. We awkwardly entered the office and took a seat (without him offering us one). He actually didn't even say anything and just stared at us. So we started the conversation, telling him about our search so far. We told him that based on our chat with Armen, we think we're ready to take a look at Diamonds for Less' inventory. Again, not much prompting of questions from Serko. I was honestly just so uncomfortable at this point. He didn't seem friendly or helpful at all. He didn't even seem like he wanted us to buy anything. He asked us characteristics we're looking for and we told him the 4 Cs. So he showed us a few. We were looking for GIA certified, which limited the amount of inventory they had. Out of the few he showed us, we liked one and asked to see the GIA report. We noticed it had medium fluorescence and we wanted none. We brought it up and asked if he had any with none. He went on a whole spiel about how fluorescence isn't a bad thing. You can only notice under black light. Why don't we want it? His wife has one with fluorescence! Why didn't we tell him from the start we didn't want fluorescence?! We need to be straight with him. We won't find one with no fluorescence here. I don't even know how to describe how we felt. We wanted to just get up and walk away. Had he asked us in the beginning our preference for each characteristic, he would have figured it out. But instead, he just asked us what we wanted. Fluorescence slipped our mind. Anyhow, we stayed and asked more questions. We asked to compare a few of the diamonds with different characteristics. He asked us why? You're not interested in that one, so why do you want to see it? We thought, "Well, maybe if you let us see it and we like it better, we might?" But we didn't say anything. He then told us he had a diamond in his other location overseas with no fluorescence - Wait, I thought he just told us we wouldn't find one with none here?.... After looking at the GIA report, we thought it was a good option. We were going to another store after and wanted to see their selection first before committing to this purchase. We asked Serko if we could call the day after to see if it's still available. He said it won't be. Someone will probably buy it. So we say okay, can we call anyway to see? He said sure, gave us his card and we left. That's when I could breathe again. There were many other little things that happened or was said during the experience that just made it even more terrible. I wish we had a better experience because they do have good prices! Just not the people we want to be dealing with for a very special piece.

But what really sets them apart from other Toronto jewellers is they are also an AD of two notable German watches, Sinn and NOMOS, which seems to be a rare thing to be in all of Canada from what I've seen. Was informed that if for example there's a Sinn model or reference they don't have, they can look into ordering for you. A spacious and brightly lit shop it is. They offered me some water as I browsed around; on a couple subsequent visits a couple associates actually remember me. They've been all patient and respectful as I try on a few pieces or try to discuss a deal; honestly the impeccable service and knowledge here couldn't be commended enough.
