Took my ring for repair. They claim it broke. They never called me to say it broke. They rebuilt…read moreto satisfy me. I was told after the math. They asked me I could walk away without paying..... My ring didn't look the same, and sadly I did not wear my glasses at the time. I wanted to remain polite and I paid for the resizing. When I went home I realized they chipped the stone on my ring. If you are not professional do not touch peoples valuable. Good manners and being supper polite does not cut it, when you destroy someone's ring. I will not bother going back, to say what. The ring is damaged anyway. I wouldn't ask you to stay away, I just had a very bad experience, and I will never go back.

I was going to call in and let Katie and her folks know just how much I appreciated and valued the…read morehigh quality custom smithing they have provided the last few years. Over the last 10 years me, my family and some friends have been thrilled with the work the shop does. From resetting stones in new bands, sizing rings, and supporting me in the creation and repurposing of cultural themed jewelry. A few years ago, after working with my indigenous clients, I realized that I had no cultural jewelry. So I scavenged the net for Nordic silver. I found a brooch of a Viking long ship, bought it from Scotland, took it to Katie and asked her to make me a pendant. She also recommended a sturdy chain. It was perfect! I received many compliments on the necklace. So for this Christmas I did it again, but this time it was for matching earrings. Katie did it again! Beautiful work, oversized custom hoops - beautiful! Thanks so much! I will be back - and recommend you to everyone.

From start to finish they really listened to all my concerns and wishes. Many photos and videos were sent so I could visualize the whole process. When the ring arrived I was very impressed with the quality and workmanship of the ring! I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful ring! During the customization of the piece I found them to be very friendly, honest and professional! It was easy to trust them with this large purchase. I also found their prices to be more than fair. I also purchased other jewelry from their shop and have been very pleased with the purchases each time. I highly recommend Goldsmithshoppe in Chilliwack for any of your jewelry needs! They have gone above and beyond my expectations and will definitely do business with them again in the future!

My fiancée took her engagement ring in to have a companion wedding band made for it. She said she…read morewanted to look at the wax mold before the ring was made. The mold was promised to be ready three weeks later. That date came and went with no communication from Jewelry Affair. My fiancée called a week later and the owner explained they were running behind because of snow, which was a lame response (I own a business two blocks away and still managed to take care of our customers during the snow days). He also said his wife had been sick, which would have been easier to be understanding of if someone had at least called us. He said he would have the mold done soon and get back to us. Another week passed with no contact from Jewelry Affair. Three more days passed and the owner's wife left a voice message explaining again that they were delayed owing to snow and her not feeling well. She said the mold would be done in another week. That week passed with no word from Jewelry Affair. I called at this point and spoke to Beth, the owners wife. I said my "patience is exhausted." She said she would look into it and get back to me, again leaning in on the excuses of snow and health delays, this time adding that it's just the two of them (as though their staffing problems should be my problem.) Four days passed with no contact from Jewelry Affair. That Friday my fiancée and I walked into the store and expressed our frustration. Beth explained that she wasn't able to call me back because my name is not in the invoice. She did not explain what kept her from calling my fiancée instead. We were offered no apologies or accommodations. The owner, Rodney, appeared at the top of the stairs to further argue our position and explain away their horrible customer service but could not be bothered to come down and speak with us. I was very angry at this point, and though I did not use profanity and merely suggested they try communicating with their customers, he said I was "being nasty about this." I demanded they return the engagement ring (a $20,000 piece of jewelry). He said he needed it to finish the wedding band, which he had already poured, skipping the agreed step of allowing my fiancée to first look at the wax mold. Rodney said the ring would be done by noon the next day. We came back the next day and the ring was ready. Beth was quite pleasant. The ring was beautiful. It was a better ending to a frustrating experience that should have been joyful given the circumstances. It's too bad, really. The guy is a decent jeweler but, in my opinion, a crummy business man with an attitude problem. We won't be back.

I brought the same anklet in twice for repair of the chain itself, and the second time, left with it in my purse instead of putting it on. When I returned home, I noticed that the clasp was loose. When I woke up in the morning, the anklet and charm were lying in my bed. I expressed concern when I brought the anklet back, saying I could have lost the $1,000 piece and also suggesting that Hammond Jewellers should pay for the replacement clasp since it was damaged when the anklet was in for repair. The manager squeezed the clasp together with some pliers and told me it was fixed. I questioned her, saying that it didn't seem like a reliable solution. I also told her that we were good customers and to know that I wouldn't be back if she didn't replace the clasp free of charge. She asked for my name and allowed me to walk out of the store. Terrible service.

I was so excited to discover that Mission has a crystal shop and braved the downtown parking to…read morecheck it out. unfortunately this shop was so disappointing! They had very little product almost all of which was locked away in glass display cabinets. When shopping for crystals you need to be able to handle them and it was really awkward to have to ask the sales person to open the cases and take out one or two specific stones. Literally each glass display case has 20 small tumbled stones spread out, also no prices visible so you have to ask for the case to be opened, point out which small stone you want to see, and then awkwardly turn ot over to find the price while the sales person hovers over. I wont start into the prices but they seemed to be at least twice what the same thing would be at other shops. Everything was so exorbinently overpriced I wonder how they stay in business at all. Shame because there is no competition around for miles, a lot of wasted potential here. Don't waste your time, make the trip into Coquitlam or Langley where there are proper metaphysical/rock shops.
