DEBBIE!!! The absolute best ! We went in on Christmas Eve to look at upgrades for my engagement ring. From the second we sat down with Debbie we were comfortable, not rushed, and confident in her suggestions. She took the "assignment" seriously and knew exactly what I was looking for ! I left that night with most gorgeous ring , far beyond my expectations!! Debbie you are a Saint, a wonderful person to not only have as our Sales associate, but to have a great conversation with as well. Thank you again Debbie . I can't stop staring at this gorgeous ring on my finger I would recommend the Gold and Diamond source to anyone that ask, it was the easiest process/purchase we have ever made ! Thank you again, Todd and Whitney read more

Let me start with the good news. My wife is happy! When I went to purchase a Christmas present for her, I was greeted by a knowledgeable, patient, and professional salesperson (Matt B). The experience was great (but don't try biking to this place). Now the bad part. During the original shopping experience, only a few of the retail price tags were visible. Only by chance were some visible so I was annoyed to continually ask what the item cost. Prices should be visible so you can judge what works in your price range. A bit of good news, both my buddy and I received discounts because of our professions. Things went sour when (after the Holiday) my wife wanted something else only to discover that there is only a 10 day return policy. This was clearly indicated on the receipt but being a guy, I didn't look at that until after the fact (that one is on me). However, the receipt also had a 30 day credit for an exchange. So back we went, and my wife got something she liked. Again, very friendly, and professional. After talking to Mary, we ended up with surplus exchange credit which I was assured would never expire. Here is where things really went sour for me. When we came to pick up my wife's item, I decided to use that surplus credit to get myself a small gift (which I picked out and was ready to purchase) I was told the credit did not apply to the item I choose. Really???? So please be aware of this misleading exchange policy and the fact that you need to know you only have 10 days to return your item for next Christmas. read more

My fiance had proposed to me using his great-grandmother's ring as a placeholder until after we moved to the Tampa area and were able to pick out a more permanent ring. So we stopped in on a Saturday a couple weeks ago. This place was packed. Then we realized it was the weekend before Valentine's Day. Definitely understand the crowd now. Regardless, we were sent back to the bridal area right when we walked in, and they set us up with a saleslady (can't remember her name) and the diamond specialist, Veronica, who was amazing! They really took the time to understand what I wanted in a ring and brought me many different options until I found the one that was for me. And after Veronica put the center diamond in the setting, I was done! It was amazing. Then they go through all the things that come with the ring. Lifetime warranty, twice a year cleanings, even if the center diamond comes out they'll fix it for you. They were also very accommodating to work within our budget and made sure that we didn't pay more than we wanted, which was nice. And Veronica made sure we got the best diamond for our money. I couldn't be happier and the ring looks amazing! We will definitely come back in the future. read more

Gold & Diamond Source - Love my ring! - Jewelry Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

My hubby went shopping here for some earrings for my birthday and had a very pleasant experience here. Now mind you, hubby is now a jewelry shopper. Usually I mark spot in a magazine and he goes find it, but this time he was on his own. They were very helpful and helped him pick out a lovely pair of ruby earrings that just made me shriek with delight upon opening (YEs, I really shrieked!) When he told me about his experience here I was very glad to hear that they were very helpful and courteous to him. You can even bring them back within a certain time frame and credit them toward an upgrade. (not that I would, I love these babies) read more

This Store is the ultimate of all jewelry stores. The staff treated us with the utmost respect. Cale treated us very very kindly. I would definitely recommend coming to this place to shop for jewelry. read more

I am not sure where all these positive reviews came from? But they suckered me into driving an hour away for nothing. I brought in a 2 CT Hose' Hess Ring....a blue diamond rind....and a ruby ring for trade, and was offered $500.for all of them. What a rip off. I got more for them in a update jewelry store. I felt offended, will never deal with this company again. read more

Well I guess they know what they are doing, My FI went over budget but I LOVE MY RING! I told my FI I was happy with a low color (j/k/l)diamond (Its in a yellow gold setting) but when he went back on his own Tony again helped him and showed him colorless E and F diamonds next to the K and L I looked at. No surprise my loved the colorless stones. I ended up with a 3ex F SI1 and Love it so much. I have had it almost a year and have been back 3 times to have to clean/inspected/polished. Each time I have gone in I have been helped and treated respectfully and nicely, and I have yet to buy anything else. But I'm sure one day I will. read more

Went to the store to sell some jewelry, the guy was a joke!! He just told me this was fake stuff and was kinda rude!!!!!!!!!! Left the store drove a half hour towards home and stopped at another place. Wow this guy gave me 3,600.00 dollars for my fake stuff really dude, this stuff was real and I knew that he treated me like I was so hillbilly. Never will I go back, not only that my brother and sister were with me and they also left the store with no deal and sold our stuff to the other guy! Thanks Gold and Diamond Source. read more

Great source for jewelry. Prices, quality and selection can't be beat. I was able to exchange my diamond solitaire I purchased from them 20years ago(still had receipt) and got full credit to upgrade. Other stores offered only a small fraction of the price for my old ring. You can feel comfortable buying from them knowing they will always back their products. read more

Just wanted to take a moment & sincerely thank Kathleen Law for the wonderful experience we recently had. Lori & I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary this July 6th & I wanted to "ring" in the milestone with a very special gift to my bride. Kathleen took the time to get to know us, truly listen & present Lori with options & ideas until just the right item caught her eye. Kathleen was patient, thoughtful & transparent which helped to make the entire experience such a pleasure. Lastly, the G&D Source is such a community icon & it is clear (& very much appreciated) how seriously you take your reputation as you haven't let us down as your clients for decades now. read more

I was robbed. Were it not the day before christmas eve and an hour drive, i'd have left with my original merchandise. 7 years ago I purchased an engagement ring; diamond and sapphires (from them). The original price was $799.00 I went back to upgrade it. Because of the late hour, it couldn't be done. So I was offered an exchange; for a $900.00 ring. However the trade value I was given was $300.00. They discounted the upgrade $100.00. Yet in still, my $799.00 ring was drastically devalued despite it being great condition needing only a cleaning. Plus gold's price has only risen over the course of seven years, and diamonds never loose value. I gave up a $799.00 value plus $500.00 So I can feel nothing else but cheated. read more

Very poor customer service and have a 'I'm better than you' attitude. Have bought there a few times but never again after today. After bringing the rudeness behavior of one of the sales reps to the managers attention, all he said was 'oh, sorry'. I gave 1 star because I couldn't post without giving at least one. read more

So pleased with the experience my fiancé and I had at Gold & Diamond Source! My fiancé brought me here to look at engagement rings and we were paired with Joe. He was so helpful and gave us such great advice in regards to diamond selection. I was absolutely blown away with my engagement ring when my fiancé proposed! They made the process so easy for my fiancé and the ring was ready pretty quickly as well. We will definitely be recommending GDS to our family and friends! read more

Gold & Diamond Source - Jewelry Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Well I have been to gold and diamond source multiple times and have spent an insane amount of money worth of jewelry from them. Today my wife and I went to get her rings bonded together and we had Pat. I have never had bad customer service from them until today. He was rude, he acted like he didn't care and he made me not want to be there. I am giving 2 stars because of the other great times I have had there but if it wasn't for those I would give it 1. If you go here do not get Pat. read more

my husband bought my engagement ring and wedding band from here. I love , love , love my beautiful set. there are many staff members and the business is usually busy. also for free i can bring it my rings twice a year for a deep cleaning and they check the diamonds to make sure they aren't getting weak. we come from Ruskin it's a pretty far drive but i don't mind because they have an antique shop close by i check out while my ring is being checked. read more

Nice showroom and was definitely crowded! I was shopping for a ring and was passed along to an engagement ring 'expert'. We found a spot to sit at the far end of the showroom and discussed budget and what I was looking for. I had an idea with what I wanted, but all the salesperson would talk about was the price, and how she could get this and that price lowered. That's all well and good that we can get the price lowered, but how about finding something that I told you I wanted? I was shown things I didn't want, which was a waste of time. I did, eventually, find something that was a possibility, it turned in to a gigantic sales pitch about how if I don't buy it now then it will be gone. She was not happy that I was taking notes about the ring I may have came back to buy later that afternoon. I mentioned I wanted to think it over since it was a big purchase. She asked what there was to think about. Maybe I should have asked for a new salesperson, but it was so crowded I didn't want to deal with it. read more

The best way to review the Gold and Diamond Source is to compare it with the store right next store, the International Diamond Center, which is why I will put this review under both stores. To put it bluntly, the IDC is for people with a higher income. All the engagement rings are designer and quite beautiful (you can go on its website to see which designers they showcase). I am very impressed with their selection and I never saw a ring and thought, "who would buy that?" They sell the diamond and setting separate, which is, in my opinion, the best way to do it. (It gets you the most bang for your buck, but a lot of lower quality, i.e. chain stores at the mall, do not do it this way, because of convenience for the less informed customer.) They are aimed at a higher clientele, which is apparent from the selection. I was only looking at settings (since we already have a diamond) and I found ones I liked from as little at $995 to as much as $4,000 (although I'm sure there are ones at higher and lower prices, though probably not much lower). I was told that their Askher collection is the cheapest. You can find a setting in the Askher collection that looks very similar to the designer settings for a lot less. They have a huge variety, so as long as you have the money you will definitely find something. In comparison, the Gold and Diamond Source has cheaper jewelry. You have the choice of looking at settings with the diamonds already attached or settings and diamonds separately. (Just the fact that they sell settings with diamonds already attached signifies that they are targeting a lower income clientele than the IDC). At the Gold and Diamond Source you have a much larger variety of rings in the hundreds of dollars (as opposed to the thousands). In regards to customer service, again, it is very different based on the clientele the locations are serving. At the IDC, the salespeople are very professional. They answer questions thoroughly and are very polite. At the Gold and Diamond Source, the salespeople act like family. I went a couple months ago and when I walked in a couple days ago, the saleslady who helped me the first time remembered me and acted like I was an old friend. It may be different that I have always had a male help me at the IDC and a female at the Gold and Diamond Source. However, I have noticed that the salespeople at the Gold and Diamond Source have more bubbly and warm personalities. As for atmosphere, the IDC is generally empty. I've always seen only a couple people in there. On the other hand, the Gold and Diamond Source is always bustling and busy. It all comes down to what you are looking for. If you want a huge selection of designer rings then go to the IDC. If you want a lower quality, but less expensive gift/ring then go to the Gold and Diamond Source. read more

I have visited GDS a few times since I got engaged and the customer service has been consistently great! Someone is always at the front door to greet you and show you in the right direction. The sales people I have been paired up with always seem happy and eager to please! Besides the customer service, who wouldn't enjoy themselves while looking at all the shiny diamonds? I had the pleasure to work to Alexis (the brunette) about what kind of wedding band would match my uniquely shaped engagement ring. She gave me so many options and went above and beyond by requesting a price quote from the designer who made my engagement ring for a matching wedding band. She emailed me on her days off to keep me in the loop!! Alexis was with another customer when my fiancé and I came back in to buy, but Veronica took care of us as if we'd been working with her all along. She made the check out experience painless and quick. I will always recommend GDS when a friend is getting engaged. We've already sent two happy couples their way! read more

I ventured in on a Sunday afternoon to sell a .5 carat engagement ring and a detailed ruby and diamond necklace. At this point, I was just wanting to get rid of the things and not go through the hassle of selling on craiglist or ebay. It's located across the street from an airport, and very close to their competitor, International Diamond Source. So, if you want to compare prices and offers, you could easily go to both places. I did not do this, because, I just wanted to be done with the jewelry! Upon entering, you go through a metal detector, but they don't really check you. The place has a nice saltwater aquarium, some birds, and even cookies laid out for customers. They have a separate section in the back for bridal jewelry, and also coins and other limited edition type pieces. The place was quite busy. A consultant greeted me and cleaned my jewelry up and inspected and weighed it in order to give me an offer. I was offered $112 for two pieces that were purchased for about $1,000, which I'm sure I could've done better at a pawn shop, but it's better than the jewelry sitting in my jewelry box collecting dust. They quickly wrote a check and I was on my way. EASY! They do custom pieces, and have a lot of unique offerings, so I'd possibly go back here to look for jewelry. I'd love to compare it to the International Diamond Source. read more

What a wonderful store! A while back when my husband and I were just dating (over 10 years ago) he bought me a beautiful promise ring from Greece with large amethyst. The ring was made with yellow gold and since I usually wear white gold it was siting in my jewelry box most of the time. A good friend of mine got her wedding band from GDS and said they can create any type of custom jewelry. I met with the sales associate and the designer to go over the ring design. Shortly after I received an email with pictures of initial design. We went back and forth on the design until I said 'this is it'. The ring was ready in couple of month and it was spectacular! The craftsmanship was amazing - if you look at the ring from the top, any of the sides, etc you could only see diamonds! The pave technique used to create the ring was exceptional! After that we've been back to purchase few more jewelry pieces (for myself and our daughter) as well as bought gold coins for Christenings as well as other special celebrations. From management to every single associate I've met, everyone is helpful, knowledgeable, and very nice! One last thing I would like to mention is that the store is family friendly! I bring my kids with me when I go there. read more

Looking for jewelry in general is about as easy as trying to find a needle in a haystack. There are so many options out there and so many jeweler a, however that being said, they all provide the same things. I'm trying to look for an engagement ring, it was always "This is what we have in the store, but we can order these items with a deposit and bring it in to see what you think". When I am making an investment like this, I don't want to throw money to a store and hope it looks great. Then I came upon Gold and Diamond Source. Initially I was a little hesitant since it wasn't a large chain. What would happen if I moved? What are the benefits like? As soon as I sat down with Christy Wise however, she answered everyone of those questions and more. Also, I was extremely impressed at the wide selection of options for the ring and the diamond. The thing I was most impressed about though was that she didn't try and sell me on the most expensive ring. She listened to what I told her and showed me the options that would best fit what both I and my fiancé wanted. This meant more to me than anything. Ultimately the ring I bought here got amazing reviews from her friends and family, despite it coming from a local store. I was very pleased with the service I received then and have received since. Well done Gold and Diamond Source. read more

My husband and I had the pleasure of doing business with this establishment today and from the moment we walked in, everybody we came in contact with was extremely courteous and professional, especially the gentleman named Matt that spent well over an hour and a half with us!

Oh my God! Darrell Cox is an amazing individual! He took such good care of us and really looked out for us. We originally went in to get an engagement ring, after some time, we finally found it! The ring In the picture is an old ring we had fixed as well. Since I can't see my engagement ring yet and after a week, we got a gorgeous ring and the old ring at a reasonable price! He is meticulous and has an impeccable eye for detail. I would recommend him to anyone and he was also able to get some great money back for me on my old jewelry!! We will definitely be long time customers! Thank you so much and see you at the wedding!! read more

I searched for the perfect engagement-ring setting in New York, New Jersey, and even Arkansas before finding this "gem" of a jewelry store. It was recommended to me by my cousin who lives in Florida and really knows jewelry. At first we were very disappointed because I had called to ask if they had any Tacori settings, and the man I spoke with on the phone said they had a few, but also similar designs. So off we went, traveling 40 minutes out of our way, only to arrive and find out that they didn't have any Tacori. That was upsetting -- at first. We soon got over our initial disappointment as Veronica and Hala brought out several beautiful settings that were thousands of dollars less than Tacori would have been. (Of course, not as haute but stunning nonetheless.) Each ring they brought out was more breathtaking than the one before. I really felt that Veronica and Hala understood exactly what I was looking for as they helped me decide. After a while, they began to feel like good friends and not just salesgals. They were extremely patient with me, maintaining their professionalism while relating on a very personal level. We spent 2.5 hours at G&DS before I unexpectedly lit upon the absolutely perfect setting for me. It was exactly what I had been looking for! We were all so excited about the end of my long search, that V&H offered to pour us some wine for a toast, and took our photograph for posterity. I really like the store's warranty and service policy. I was also able to get an appraisal that day to take to my insurance agent. Because I was leaving Fla. the next morning, they sized the ring and shipped it to me the next day via FedEx. It arrived in a well-protected and beautiful box . The only problem was that the 18k mark had been removed during sizing, which was only a minor annoyance. Overall - despite the initial phone faux pas -- I enjoyed the experience immensely, thanks to Veronica and Hala. The store itself is clean and well laid out, and there are plenty of selections at extremely reasonable price points. I will definitely return the next time I'm in the neighborhood! read more

This establishment was recommended to me when I had some side diamonds fall out of a ring that no one would fix as it was an invisible setting which is apparently very hard to fix and secure the stones in place. I decided to venture up and see what if anything could be done. The initial person took my ring to a jeweler out back and came back and said they would have to send it out for an estimate. This is a pretty expensive ring so sending it out was not an option I wanted. A manager soon came over and assisted the clerk, taking my ring to inspect. I soon had several choices including repairing it but he said they have found one company who does that type of setting so it would have to be sent out. He also said because of the ring being previously sized it caused the stones to be unstable and there was no guarantee they would not come loose. At least I felt like I had several options now. The staff were very helpful and the store has a huge variety of options for any buyer in any price range. Security is in place throughout the store and plenty of staff who are very attentive as soon as you enter. I am having my jewelry reset and will certainly post more once I see the final product. read more

We just purchased my Engagement ring from the Gold & Diamond Source. I am SO glad I did. I was helped by Debbie Tiliakos in purchasing the ring of my dreams.

They will be our jewelry store from now on. read more

Wow! Just wow. I stopped in today to have my ring dipped (white gold) and cleaned, and was so impressed! The service was amazing and professional. My salesperson was 3SH according to my receipt. She tested my diamond for authenticity, then measured the diamond and then photographed the diamond for their records. My ring was ready in 2 hours and they even tightened the prongs. Great professional experience! read more

We bought our engagement ring here and it is now the only place I'd ever go for jewelry. My fiance was with me as she wanted to pick out something unique and specific. They helped us pick out the perfect ring, ordered the correct stone (pretty quickly) and never tried to upsell me- which may not have been too hard considered my fiance was right next to me. Troy was our main salesman and he was an absolute pleasure to deal with, and just a down-to-earth guy. 10/10 experience. read more

In January 2014 I visited the Gold and Diamond Source to shop for an engagement ring for my soon to be Fiancée. Wow what a beautiful selection. My eye was drawn to a halo ring with the most beautiful diamond and although the two saleswoman assisting me showed me many other choices I stuck with my first choice... and proposed to Annick on February 17,2014 with success. Earlier this month I returned with Annick to pick out our wedding band and once again a special dual band ring caught my eye. Alexis Pheil, the store specialist guided us through the collection of beautiful options but once again my first choice prevailed. They will join the engagement ring and wedding ring to create a masterpiece!! The choice for my wedding band,(probably not as glamorous) was also made with the expert guidance of Alexis who also to into account the wear and tear of my chef job. Thank Alexis Sesto Ramadori read more

Very happy with our experience at Gold & Diamond Source! We went to many places trying to find the perfect ring and this was the only store who had a wide selection of heart shaped diamonds which was exactly what we were looking for! Our sales rep Sue was very patient as we went through the hundreds of choices of bands to fit our gorgeous Diamond. Sue made us feel at ease, letting us take as much time as we needed and even mentioned "how could she mind as she was getting to play with beautiful diamonds the whole time!" Great experience and I love my perfect ring! Thank you Sue and GDS! read more
