Huge thank you to South Coast Jeweler for saving my finger today!…read more My trinity ring was completely stuck and causing severe swelling, and they were able to cut it off safely, and carefully so that I can at least get it repaired. The whole process took like 1 minute, so I appreciate how quickly it took. Lol They were very welcoming and friendly the moment I walked into the store.

My fiancé began his ring search knowing almost nothing about diamonds but was willing to explore…read moreand learn. He visited several jewelers across OC, from large retailers to family owned stores and even some that were recommended by other friends/family but none compared to the genuine care and honest customer service he received from Kathy and Jenny here! I came with my fiancé on his first visit here to get sized and choose some shapes that I preferred. Kathy patiently walked us through sizing and explored different shapes with zero pressure and so much patience. We loved how relatable she was and how natural and genuine our convos went! When he returned on his own, Jenny took her time to educate him fully and showcased her expertise (being in the business for 30+ years) and made sure he truly understood every detail, not just the 4 C's, but things other stores never even mentioned so he could feel confident making such an important decision. They actually encouraged him to even take his time and check out other places to make sure he was confident in his decision. This kind of customer care made all the difference! I didn't see the ring until the proposal, and it was absolutely perfect! But what makes it even more meaningful is knowing how much thought, care, and intention went into choosing it and how much of that came from the guidance he received there. I really can't thank both Jenny and Kathy enough for making his experience so smooth and seamless! If you're starting your ring journey and feel overwhelmed, go to South Coast Jewelers. They don't just sell you a ring, they make you feel confident, excited, and taken care of which makes this kind of experience so much more priceless.

So as far as looks go this location is pretty on the inside but their customer service is pretty low quality which is sad when they are dealing with high quality jewelry that is meant for special occasions. I honestly keep going to this location because it's the most convenient, meaning it's the closest one. All though by the time I get anyone's attention at this location I could have just driven to the Fullerton location and I know I'll get better service there. Also the one in San Diego has great customer service also but this one is the worst. I was in the store ignored by the employees, not even a " Welcome, we will be with you shortly" nothing and I ended up waiting for 10 minutes inside the store that I ended up calling from inside the store and still no answer. The employees don't answer the phone. They hear it but don't answer. 3 times I called and it went to voice mail. I do my best to get my ring's maintenance done once a year. I understand one of the employees was with a couple so she is trying to give them her full attention. She did however take the time to assist me after 10 minutes but it was definitely rushed and the way I was spoken to was as if I was a nuisance. I'm sure that's wasn't her intention but that's how it came off. It was pretty much hand me your ring and I'll take it to the back to get it cleaned. No documentation was taken, I wasn't even asked my name , just come back in 15 minutes. I stupidly gave the employee my ring only after I left for a few minutes I realize they don't know who I am or if I even got the ring there. I came back 15 minutes later and my ring was never serviced and the employee who took my ring hurried back to clean it and then handed it to me. Again I know she was dealing with a couple helping them purchase the most important jewelry they will ever purchase in their lives but also my husband and I have spent good money here. I wasn't asking for much. Also a cleaning isn't a thorough inspection. This store needs lessons on customer service. Also this is my most recent experience but even the last 2 times I've gone the service was not great just this last time o feel was the worst.

Liberty Diamonds is the best jeweler!…read more I did tons of research before choosing a new jeweler, and Liberty Diamonds exceeded my high expectations because of their: --Excellent customer service --High-end products --Many years of experience --Reasonable prices --Trustworthiness I was in need of a new jeweler because my original jeweler went out of business, and then the jeweler I found to replace him didn't do as good of a job and, lately, was referring everything to junior jewelers who didn't give me the best service. So I went on Yelp and found Liberty Diamonds based on all of their 5 star great reviews, and I am so happy that Yelp steered me in the right direction! Liberty Diamonds is now my go-to jeweler, and I've actually done multiple things with them, which have all turned out perfect, including: --Ring repair: My grandma's antique platinum and diamond ring broke, and Liberty Diamonds fixed it for me and resized it so it fit my hand better. Amazing! --Jewelry design: I wanted a pair of multi-strand pearl and white gold earrings, glammed up from an older version I used to wear when I was in college, and Troy helped me design exactly what I wanted! The finished product was perfect and of the utmost quality! --Diamond ring polishing and maintenance: It had been a while since I had my rings professionally cleaned (other than a quick dip in the ultrasonic), so I dropped them off for a few days and got them back looking polished and shiny, like they were brand new instead of many years old! I really liked how Troy showed me my rings under a magnifying lens and then gave me options for repairs I could do. I chose to preventatively strengthen a prong, and everything turned out looking incredible! --Custom necklaces: Now I am designing coordinating necklaces for my daughters and myself with the help of Liberty Diamonds and it's a great process and I have tons of options at reasonable price points Liberty Diamonds is located in an office center near SNA Airport (off the 405fwy and MacArthur) and there's plenty of easy/free parking! I am soooooo happy with Liberty Diamonds and highly recommend them to anyone in need of a trustworthy, high-end, bespoke jeweler with outstanding customer service!

The first time I went to CNC I was surprised how much more money they paid me for my scrap gold ,almost twice as much as the other two places I went to first .I was also surprised about all the knowledge Andy and Kirsten had about silver gold and diamonds. The amount of time they spent with me explaining values of the nick nacks and scrap I brought in is amazing . To find this level of service in a coin or jewelry store is unbelievable. I would highly recommend CNC if your looking to sell coins or jewelry. no one in southern california pays more!!!! P.S. They are really nice people to read more

Was getting interested again in coins, partly due to the gold and silver value fluctuations, Checked out a couple of other shops in the area before coming to Andy and Kirsten's shop on Tustin Ave. They treated me so nice and are so personable that I haven't bothered going anywhere else since. Their pricing was a little better than competitive, and I've been very satisfied with their help in making intelligent decisions for selecting coins and bullion. On my own volition, I recommend them to friends who show interest in coins, gold and silver. Check them out, I'm sure you'll agree. read more

When trading/selling any rounds or coins the price was above par and without any issues. Thank you both and take some time to enjoy the beach and ocean. read more
