I took my original 1/4 diamond engagement ring my husband got me back in 1991. I wanted the diamond…read moreput into a pendant and Mr. Lomax showed me this pendant he had with the pink/blue tourmaline stones and said he could put my diamond in this pendant. I fell in love with it and picked up the pendant this past Saturday. It turned out great and I will love wearing this everyday. I have a beautiful pendant with sentimental meaning that I will be able to pass down to my daughter one day.

On August 26, 2024, I hired Mr. Lomax to work on a few different projects. He fixed a gold chain…read morewhile I waited and did a great job. Next was my daughter's ring. It is a small promise-type ring in a swirl design. She caught it on the washer and lost one of the tiny diamonds, pulling it up and out of round. He was to replace the diamond and make it round again, lowering the swirl that was lifted up. Then came my project. He was to remove the head (diamond and prongs setting) of one ring, place it in another ring, and move the swirls out further on that ring. He would also need to remove the smaller diamond from that ring. I would have the platinum shank left from the first ring and the smaller diamond from the second. This would take 3 weeks--a bit long, but okay. The invoice says it was promised on the "15th." After 3 weeks, he called me and asked me what he was supposed to be doing because he couldn't read his own writing on the invoice. I explained it to him, and he seemed to remember. He was having some family issues and said it would be another 3 weeks. I think he could hear the displeasure in my voice. He texted me on the afternoon of Saturday, Sept 21, with a picture of my finished ring. I thought it came out great. I picked up our rings the following Monday afternoon. I asked him for my ring shank and loose diamond. He could not find them. He said he would look and get back to me right away. I was very concerned because the ring shank is platinum. When I handed my daughter her ring, and she put it on, she realized that he may have replaced the diamond but did not fix the ring because it was still out of round. The swirl was still lifted. I discovered that my ring wasn't sized. I realized it must have been an oversight as it wasn't listed to be done on the invoice either. We decided we didn't want to wait another 3 weeks for him to "fix" something, so we went to my out-of-town jeweler. They were able to fix her ring within minutes. Mine- well, that's another story. When they went to resize it they discovered that the prongs were so loose the diamond was spinning around inside the setting. Since I now live out of town, they fixed it for me that afternoon. I texted him on September 24 to inquire about my missing shank and on September 25 to remind him that I was also missing the diamond from the other ring. I did not receive a response. I texted him again on September 28 to ask about my missing parts. I did not receive a response. I texted him again on October 10 and realized he must have blocked me. I was not harassing at all in my inquiries. On November 25, Mr. Lomax called me to say he had my ring shank. He didn't know why he had it, but it was there with my name on it. I asked about the loose diamond and he was confused and said he knew nothing about a loose diamond. He said he would be open the Friday after Thanksgiving and then back to regular hours. I picked up my ring shank on December 2. I couldn't believe my eyes. I have no idea why, but he cut my platinum band. I'm left with two-thirds of a ring shank. I was shocked. There was NO reason for him to cut my ring like that to remove the heading. He didn't use any platinum in the ring he placed the heading. I asked him again about the diamond, and he had no clue. There is no talking to this man, he dismisses you.
