I struggled choosing a category for Yellow Shop... I just went as vague as shopping! I had to,…read morebecause this place sells so many odds and ends its hard to classify... Batteries, photo frames, clocks, toys, can openers, torches, cigarette tins! Yellow Shop is a place you go not knowing what you want to come out with, and its owner knows that, feeling happier than most at you having a browse about without buying anything. He seemed quite the friendly sort of guy, and busied himself with a bit of casual tuneful whistling while helping with a customers order. The funny little shop didn't exactly make me fall in love with it, but its fun design and eclectic collection of products means I wouldn't be adverse to going again. And if I need to by mains adaptors, I'll know where to go!

She abruptly told me that I need an appointment, despite the shop being empty. I told her that I had driven from the other side of Sussex specifically to put the watch in for a service.She went to speak with a man, who was sitting at a desk at the back of the shop (he wasn't with any customers, as the shop was empty. She came back and told me I would have to make an appointment to come back at 4.40 to book the watch is.... as it would take 20 minutes. That twenty minutes could have been given to me right there and then! I went elsewhere and the watch was booked in within ten minutes, immediately, and the costs were less than 50% of what WofS would have charged me. The lesson of this story is .. don't bother using this place - they have NO idea how to treat customers, who have plenty of disposable income. Disgusting to say the least!

Wishing Well Jewellers is a traditional little jeweller tucked down a side road off London Road…read more Its selection is fairly average, comprising, well, exactly what you'd expect from a family jeweller with the odd bit of bling thrown in as an effort to bring it up to date. The reason I like this place is the expert behind the counter, who mends things skilfully (sometimes while you wait), and peruses things through a jeweller's glass as you browse, giving the whole place an air of Dickensian authenticity. He won't blink were you to take him an intricate old pocket watch, for example - he can put his hands instantly on the correct tools, and clearly has the knowhow to deal with pretty much anything you might need fixing. I took in a bracelet for a friend once in which the filigree clasp was the focus of the design, and had fallen off at a gig and been trampled on by a succession of excitable sixteen year olds before being rescued. He merely whipped out a succession of miniscule needle nosed pliers and almost by magic, restored it to perfect working order. He didn't even charge. He felt it was too easy. Altogether then, it's probably not worth the visit for the stock alone, but it would be an excellent choice for restoration and repairs.

The RUDEST owner. He actually threw his toys out of the pram when questioned about a price for…read morerepair and he shoved back my chain and said he NOW doesn't want to fix it! It was laughable his reaction at what was a reasonable question. Obviously go there if your want an ego driven irritable moody A**hole to deal with. He didn't even know what metal the chain was made out of? And when questioned about another repair he had no idea what he was talking about. Go here to buy tacky secondhand/stolen rings. That fact that he has to buzz you in should have been warning enough that this wasn't in anyway a friendly welcoming premises. Stay AWAY!!!

I asked why and she showed me the page in the book. I pointed out that was for a full service, I only needed a battery changed but she insisted that was all they would offer me as my watch was an older model. I refused she got quite nasty so I told her to forget it and left. I went down to The Lanes, asked around & was directed to Ocean Jewellers in Meeting House Lane, what a difference! They fixed my watch within a few hours, rang me to pick it up and only charged me £30!!!! Avoid Goldsmiths if you have any repairs or just need a battery - they're complete rip off merchants!!!!

The general stock is always quite 'light' and not gaudy. Certainly not a store to frequent should you require some Bling! Whilst the majority of the stock is the kind of thing you would be buying for your girlfriend, there are also enough bracelets and necklaces of jade and citrine etc. for the more bohemian gentleman. I have bought myself a very nice amber bracelet from here before and more importantly received the thumbs up for presents to girlfriends. There is not always quite as much stock as some of the larger jewlers, but as the saying goes sometimes 'less is more'. The staff have always been helpful and will box up your purchase nicely, so that those who are lazy or inept at wrapping would be able to get away with giving the gift as it comes from the shop. The price is kind of wide ranging with nice pieces available for those on a budget, but also some fine items for shoppers wanting to spend out of something that will draw compliments at relevant functions. They regularly rotate their stock and display a nice range of items in the window. Highly recommended.

My boyfriend, his sister and I were walking around the lanes of Brighton when we happened upon the charming storefront of Regents. I cooed at all of the marvelous antique rings displayed in the window when I happened upon this beautiful Edwardian piece that now resides on my finger. All of the rings here were in marvelous condition and spectacularly displayed! The woman inside was fabulous and very patient, especially when the boyfriend insisted I try the ring and the moment of shock/terror that followed. She checked to see if the ring fit properly and it did! I could not believe the ring fit so well! The woman also guaranteed a resize if I ever needed it. I am very impressed with this store and am so happy that it made a special day even brighter in Brighton!
