The H&T Pawnbrokers of Leeds is a fairly reasonable place to browse for shiny things. I can't speak…read morefor their pawn brokerage as such, I have nothing to sell and am certainly not in the business of borrowing money either, and so would always suggest sensibility and caution when it comes to that arena. However, when it comes to shiny glistening jewellery, I am somewhat of a seasoned browser. Oh yes. It was such items that laser beamed my eye as I was walking to the charity shops along the same street in Leeds, so I stopped by for a quick browseroo. Delightful! They had several vintage style rings and other items and their prices were dirt cheap. There were several second hand garnet and emerald rings, 9ct gold, for between £50-£100 which I thought wasn't too bad - not exactly great gold, but it's always been the gems that I like best. They also had a range of watches, pendents, sovereign rings, bracelets and more - all under the second hand bargain signage - for reasonably cheap prices. It's not exactly somewhere that I might frequent having been there, but definitely I'll be on the look out for a cheap vintage style ring!

Well... we may have been looking for a ring. By 'a ring', I mean, the ring. I know a lot of…read morepeople may not find it romantic to go shopping for the ring together, but if you are spending money on jewelry, you want to make sure that it is something the other person wants AND that it is quality. Having worked in jewelry while I was in high school and college, I like to think that I can at least see when I am being ripped off. I actually found this store online while searching for 'jewelry stores in Manchester'. The store is in Leeds and the other branches of the store, also not in Manchester. However, I am glad I looked and glad that Mr. Snarky was up for a trip to Leeds. If you call the number at the bottom of the website it goes to their head office and they can provide you with the number of the store you wish to contact. I didn't realize there were multiple locations. And if you are shopping online, I don't believe they include which location a particular item is at. While I realize it might be a security issue, driving an hour and a half (traffic was a bit of a nightmare) to Leeds to hear a staff member say, "Not sure if that one is here at this store" made my heart sink. If you are looking for a particular item, you may want to call ahead to make sure you end up at the right store. This location is in the Crossgate Shopping Centre with a couple of car parks available. From the outside, I saw that they do a bit more than jewelry... like pawnbroking, cheque cashing, etc. The store is small, but it is very nice inside. Mr. Snarky suggested we have a look at the window display and see if there were any rings I liked the look of that weren't on the website. After having a look, we buzzed to be let in and were warmly greeted. We did have to go back out in order to show them what rings we were interested in looking at and I did have to pull up a picture of the ring I was interested in so they could locate it. Fortunately the other staff member recognized it as soon as she saw it and said that she had seen it just the other day! Phew! I got to try them on and the lady told me more about each of the rings... the one I was very interested in was a previously owned ring, but was specially made... meaning it is one of a kind!!!! That's what I was looking for as I don't want the ring everyone else has. They offered free ring sizing, but were unsure of when it would be ready because of the holidays and offered to call me in a day when the man who does repairs and ring sizings would be in. First thing on Monday morning, I had a call and my ring will be ready this week! The two staff members have been so helpful and friendly and really made the process quite easy. They also asked what I was looking for and what the budget was and were able to provide some other options to look at... because every girl enjoys trying on rings! While I know they want to sell jewelry, they seemed genuinely excited about the ring I chose over the others because of its uniqueness. I am excited to go back and pick up the ring and we are even considering getting our wedding bands there!

Purchased a Brietling watch Xmas day from this company via their website…read more Paid the deposit, went through the agreed finance process, order placed. Delivery expected within 21 days. At very nearly four months after several emails & calls telling me it wont be much longer, I receive an email out of the blue telling me they've refunded my payment & will be cancelling the credit agreement. I cant remember a time when I've been treated so badly by a company. The watch I ordered is still freely available in reputable retailers not buying from the "Grey market". This company should honour their agreements with customers, but don't feel the need to treat customers with the respect they deserve. I'd avoid this company like the plague in future, opting instead to purchase from a reputable source. Disgraceful to say the least!
