I took in three broken wrist watches and an old mechanical stopwatch. Brian dealt with three of…read morethem while I waited without charge. Of the wristwatches, one he showed me how to reset the timer function myself, one is a really cheap watch with a broken strap that could only be replaced by the maker (I got it in Japan), and one needs a new movement, I got a quote with a warranty included. The old stopwatch belonged to my grandfather, he opened it up and found a screw had come undone and was loose inside. he fixed and gave it back to me working. All of that while I waited and no charge. I'll think about the movement replacement, but I'll probably take it back for him to do it.

my fiancé and i recently got engaged and we were shopping for a ring together. prior to going to…read moreAshley Jewelers we went to two other stores, one was good for teaching us about what we were looking for, and one (Michael Hill) made us feel like our budget wasn't enough- which left my fiancé feeling quite bummed out. when we got to Ashley Jewelers, we were greeted immediately by Gene (Jean? i didn't write her name down unfortunately) who shared our excitement for our engagement- something the last store didn't do at all. she congratulated us, asked about how it happened, and showed genuine interest in our story. she educated us on products, and also let us know that she could work with our budget- no matter what it was. she mentioned more cost efficient options should we be interested and let us know that things can be rearranged to help us stay within our means. we got lucky and found a beautiful canadian diamond ring that suits me completely. everyone says how the ring is "so me" and i couldn't be more in love with it. thank you for such a great experience, and for turning my mans frown upside down. id highly recommend this company and i would certainly take any future business there before anywhere else. thank you!

If there were 10 stars, I'd gladly give them!…read more Last week we walked by the store, saw this stunning Douglas LaFortune Jr totem in the window, and within minutes, had the measuring tape out. Today, we made arrangements to pick up this behemoth (how much does thing weigh!!!) and to our surprise, Jimmy (co-owner with wife Pam) ran down the street to get his dolly from the car, helped us put it in our truck, drove behind us all the way home, and helped us up the elevator and to place it. I mean, really??? that's outstanding. Hours of his time, completely unexpected. Truly a pleasure. And the selection of native art, native jewellery, is really remarkable. I was particularly happy to see Salish first native art represented since Gastown is on Salish land Can't say enough...and when COVID is over, I'm bringing a bunch of friends to shop for the silver jewellery :)

I brought in my jewellery that a Cash-For-Gold place had offered me $1500 for... but I didn't want…read moreto sell it; I only want to pawn it, so I could get it back. The man that dealt with me treated me like I was homeless, despite the fact that I was wearing a suit after getting off of work, and was very rude... He initially toldme he would give me $400, before I told him I had already received a quote from the Cash-For-Gold place... when I told him that, he went up to $600, but wouldn't go any higher, and was really cocky about the fact that if I needed more, I could just go sell it, instead of pawn it... I desperately wanted to keep my jewellery, so I pawned it, but I was treated with such disrespect that once I receive my items back, I shall NEVER return there again.

I'll admit the business is small and the given selection is modest, but Kevin has been a skilled craftsmen in his trade his whole life. Patience is a virtue, and having witnessed a few customers in the store while I shop needlessly creating difficulties for staff, it makes me feel that no-one who leaves 1 stars have ever worked retail. Kevin and his staff have only offered me respect and welcomed my business with warmth and understanding.
