They could improve on some honesty They lied to me about paying top dollar for gold,silver jewelry,coins , proof sets. Basically they lied about everything they told me Don't let David Ellis steal your gold or silver because they did steal mine!!!! read more

Lowball offer! I just went there and they were hundreds of dollars less than the next place. I was selling silver coins and their offer was $500 and I went to the next place and got $850. Seller beware. read more

We had them replace a diamond in my mother's ring. It took a long time due to diamond shortage. Once they got it, they lost the stone. Whoops. They replaced the stone and charged us 1/2 of what they thought they should charge. Nadine is lovely and kind and sweet. They did what was right and we are grateful to them. read more

One of the oldest and well established buyers and sellers of precious metals, jewelry and estate pieces in Cherry Creek. In the many years of working with David and his staff I've always found them to be scrupulously fair and straight forward. Of those reviews where people may have felt disappointed in the offer provided to them especially for jewelry, the unfortunate fact is that most people buy their jewelry from chain stores where the retail mark up is often excess of 300% or more.. much more., thus when looked at for resale they get a shock. read more

What a wonderful group of customer centric, fun, fair and the best in the business! I highly recommend this organization not only for the gold and silver exchange but also the beautiful, available jewelry and other heirlooms. To all of you, thank you for a perfect experience! read more

I fell on some financial hardship. I presented, to sell, a beautiful blueberry tourmaline and diamond ring made by Levian ring that retailed for $5,800. They wanted to give me $250. So basically I felt like he wanted to rip me off. I also present a natural emerald and diamond ring with the Levian. The $250 would have included the emerald. DON'T GO HERE! read more

First, the service is better at a self service gas station. Man who was working couldn't be bothered to put down his sandwich to even greet customers. Once I finally got his attention, he was shady. Told me he couldn't get a quote on my jewelry because the owner wasn't there and then low balled my jewelry that was appraised that morning. And when I informed him of the value i was told that morning, he told me that I didn't know what I was talking about. Overall shady, dishonest, and customer service is SERIOUSLY lacking. Would avoid if you don't want to be ripped off & disrespected in the process. read more

David Ellis Jewelers did such an amazing job on my wedding band!! They were so accommodating and helpful and kind. AND affordable! I was able to use my grandmas diamonds and they made me the perfect ring. read more

My experience selling flatware couldn't have been better. They accurately identified the sterling from the silverplate, discussed the amount offered and process, had a bit of negotiation and it was Win-Win. It was done in 15 minutes with compensation in hand. This is a family run business and they are very courteous and friendly. They treat you well and hope for your return business. read more

I had A diamond ring that was cracked and couldn't be fixed so I took it and another diamond ring to David Ellis to see about setting the diamonds from both rings in a new ring. I ended up designing the ring and their goldsmith custom made it for me and it turned out beautifully! I used the gold from the 2 rings to put toward the cost of the new ring which was really great to be able to do. I love love my new ring! read more

Fantastic shop and fantastic people. Attentive, friendly and helpful this is a great place. Fair, curious and they ask questions to get to know your wants and needs. Highly recommended. read more

This place seriously sucks. They were rude and condescending right off the bat, questioning my friends and I why we were there and who sent us. The staff kept insinuating that certain items were out of price range and the shop was not well maintained as there was crap all over the place in disarray. Some of the selection was good but I'm not supporting a business that doesn't treat their customers well. read more

This place gets a 0 from me! I had to give them a one star because you can't post a review without a star! They lowball you and they are very rude! If you want to sell jewelry or silver or gold, do not go to David Ellis! If you tell them that another jeweler gave you a higher bid, they will tell you to go back to the other place! They are very disrespectful and have no compassion! They shouldn't be in business! read more

We found some silver serving sets and coins so we took 3 boxes of stuff down to David Ellis Cherry Creek. We were lucky to find an open parking spot in front of the store, which was good for my elderly mom as well as my back for toating in the boxes. Max greeted us right when we walked in the door and let us know we were safe while he was on duty. The staff began going thru all the silver serving sets we brought in, setting aside those items they deemed as having a market value. Nothing left our sight. We had lots of coins and the staff separated out valuable coins with silver vs coins we should just take to the bank and put back into circulation. After about an hour, they totaled up an itemized value of what they would pay my mom and offered me the calculator to check their figures. My mom was very happy with the offer and accepted. They wrote out a check, which my mom deposited later in the day. I would refer anyone to this establishment for great service and what would consider as fair value and honesty when it comes to helping and elderly parent turn coin collections and wedding gifts from years gone by into cash. If you were to feel uncomfortable carrying in valuables by yourself, go into the store first and ask if Max could help escort you and your goods into the store. read more

Great experience. They traded all my bits and bobs for a gorgeous sapphire to replace a lost wedding ring. 3 days later I found my lost ring. That's just good karma all around. Thank you! read more

I went to David Ellis and they gave him top dollar for everything I had others pawn shops and would not even come close he will now be the only place I go to sell my items thanks David Ellis read more

I left a previous review on Google and I just deleted it. Mrs. Ellis is a sweetheart. Mr. Ellis is an asshole. He treated her like crap in front of me and said to her " well now we're not gonna make money on that person on the phone, we're not going to make money off of this guy (referring to me), the next person you better double the price to make up for it." I recently took my rings that I had them upsize for me to a different jeweler because I wasn't happy with the way the ring was done and the new jeweler told me the there was a chip in the main diamonds and the several prongs were broken and 3-6 diamond were fake. So before the ring was fixed, it was flawless because I had appraisals from 3 different jewelers and everything was fine until Mr. Ellis got ahold of it. read more

I took my jewelry in last week to have it appraised and it was a BREEZE! Everyone there was lovely and I walked out with a check.. It's easy to get to in Cherry Creek and I felt like I'd "made a friend in the jewelry industry " () Thank you David! . read more

I went in to inquire if the store would be interested in purchasing an expensive high-quality diamond wedding set. I was treated so unprofessionally, I would not recommend visiting this retail store. Originally thinking they were located in Cherry Creek and that I would receive great service, upon leaving the store the owner told me to come back when I was tired of shopping around my item. CONSUMERS read his review Responses- he's constantly calling customers desperate. I am not desperate or dumb enough to do business with this man/business read more

This was hands down the rudest experience I have ever had in a place. I went in to get a ring appraised and the woman looked at the ring and instantly shook her head in disgust (my ring was beautiful!). I asked if she could give me an assessment instead of just shaking her head. She then handed my ring to another man in the store who looked at it and asked invasive questions like why I was selling it, etc. He gave me a lowball offer and said "Good luck with selling it." I have never been so appalled by an experience. Don't ever go here if you want a fair or pleasant experience. read more

David is easy to do business with. He is very knowledgeable and fair in business transactions. He is my go to jeweler for buying, selling, trading and jewelry repair. read more

Has always treated me well with repairs and purchases! I have been shopping there for 2 decades. Good people! David is fun and smart!

I did have a great experience with David Ellis store. Jamie, Nadine and David were professional with me and I felt they worked with me. Great experience and I will let my friends know of this store. read more

I don't expect to be in the position of needing to sell jewelry very often. I have a 1.02c diamond, 14k white gold ring that I bought at Shane for $2090. I also had all the accompanying paperwork. I understand I won't get what I paid. They offered me $500. I kept the ring. Everyone was nice enough and they bought some scrap gold from me that I wasn't expecting. I have to laugh at some of the reviews. This place does seem oddly sketch for being in cherry creek. Maybe all places that buy and sell are a bit, uh, stereo typical? Anyway, I just wanted to post specifics so readers could assess on their own. read more

I brought in 12 items appraised at over $50,000. They offered me $800.00. Fair, I don't think so.

David Ellis stayed open during the coronavirus/COVID-19 stay-in-place order -- in order to help people like me. I'm not wealthy, and don't have any savings. Staying home is getting harder and harder with no income, and I wanted to sell some gold jewelry. David Ellis gave me a good price for my jewelry. I was really impressed and pleased with how careful the company and the people were being. Everyone was in gloves, and a large transparent panel was suspended from the ceiling, so that we could talk and not worry about any droplets! He was also very kind and understanding, knowing that I was selling jewelry I'd rather keep, knowing how poor I was, knowing the terrible situation. I highly recommend David Ellis jewelers -- not just good business, but good people. read more

Went in for a ring appraisal and the old white man couldn't have been more rude and spoke with such a condescending tone. Completely low balled me on the price and hardly looked at my piece, didn't even ask about the prior Appraisal paperwork I had in my hand. read more

I had a great experience shopping here. I needed a gold chain in a length that isn't very common or available (14"). I was worried that this shop would be super expensive because they're independently owned (and located in Cherry Creek), but that wasn't the case at all. Not only did these guys give me a great price for the chain, but they also shortened it to the length I needed while I waited and didn't charge me extra for it. They were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be going back for any future jewelry purchases. read more

I had the most disturbing experience today, and I will never return to this jeweler. My mother and I brought several silver serving pieces and some jewelry to sell. They advertise all types of silver welcome. We made an appointment. A man in a back room with an aggressive German Shepherd kept snapping orders at the gentleman helping us. He said, "No silver plated!" They would only buy a few jewelry items for $25 total, and they turned away thousands of dollars worth of beautiful pieces. As we were completing the paperwork, the man in the back room started shouting obscenities at our helper and chastised him violently for spending 40 minutes with us for twenty-five f***ing dollars. It was the most unpleasant and unprofessional business experience I have ever had. I will never return. read more

They untangled my necklace, which took awhile, and wouldn't let me pay them for their service. I'll definitely return to buy jewelry in the future. read more

i have never been to a nicer, friendlier place in the jeweler sector. you feel a part of the family the minute you walk in the Door. Their knowledge is incredible as well as their customer service. This will be my Jeweler as long as I am in Cherry Creek / Denver area. so glad to have found this place. by the way, David paid me the highest price for my jewelry. read more

Dishelved staff and a messy shop environment. I am also disappointed in my ring repair.

Sold a large amount of silver to David Ellis. Spoke with him on the phone to confirm he would buy this amount. Offered me a price over the phone sight unseen. Was very friendly when I arrived at the store with my silver. Gave me the price quoted over the phone and close to market value. Exceeded my expectations. Barry read more

Love this jeweler. I initially went to get rid of some gold I didn't want. The next time I needed a repair which was done perfectly. I'm in my way back with two more repairs and know I'll be pleased with their work. They treat their customers like gold which I love and they don't rush you!! read more

The team of extremely professional individuals that work at David Ellis remind me that there are still honest and helpful people in the world. Especially during Covid when people might need to sell things they never thought they would. I have found the staff at David Ellis to be exceptional. I believe they give a fair price and I believe they're honest and straightforward. I have been a client with them for eight years and I don't plan to go anywhere else because loyalty between client and owner is essential during these unprecedented times. I trust them with my Grandmother's jewelry which is saying a lot in my books. Be sure to check them out - it's a beautiful store and they have a wide selection of everything you've ever needed and then some! Thank you David Ellis for making my day during a difficult time! read more

This is the second store I brought my wedding ring set to, and was given a similar price for them, but conducted in a way nicer atmosphere. Granted, I just wanted the set gone and didn't negotiate prices. But the store is nice and there's a lot of pretty jewelry everywhere that's easy to get distracted looking at. They were all older gentlemen and didn't seem judgmental when someone needed to borrow against their valuables, which is appreciated as another customer just chilling by trying not to eavesdrop. read more
