There is a crackolicious ghetto-ocity to the Midway Mall but I beg that you overlook that for this little diamond in the rough: D Master Jeweler. I brought Dan, the owner, an antique copper box that needed repair and he did an amazing job.
However, before going to D Master Jeweler, I tried a different repair shop near Austin first which had estimated 150$, for a superficial repair, and 350$ for a thorough repair. This place was called Fast Fix in the Barton Creek Mall. I chose the superficial repair for 150$. This swanky place, referred to me by the even swankier "Jade Galleria", jerked me around repeatedly and failed to start work after having had my box for over a week. As a result, I drove all the way to Austin, 5 hours, in order to pick up the box (un fixed!) and return it to Texoma.
As a result, I researched options in Texoma. That's when I met Dan of D Master Jeweler. His operation is no frills but he does amazing work! He fixed my copper box completely for 45$. This is 8 times cheaper than the "fancy" Austin repair shop. Furthermore, he did it in a matter of 2 days. The work is beautiful and I am very happy with the cost, professionalism, and craftsmanship which he has offered. I'll definitely take any such repair to him in the future. I strongly recommend that you do the same! read more
