We are from the Erie area but live in Pittsburgh now which presented an issue and going into the store to look at rings and stones. Kat did the most fantastic job of communicating with me via text call and email. She sent me pictures and quotes on tons of different rings. She also had me looking through websites of jewelers they work with. When I finally decided on the right ring she was fast to make it happen and took my payment information over the phone. The next time I was in town I was able to swing by and pick it up. So easy! She also helped me set up the insurance policy and care plan for it! I came into the store over Christmas to thank Kat in person and ended up walking out with a new watch as well! I will absolutely be making the two hour drive for any and all of my jeweler needs!

I had looked up "rough" going rates on eBay, etsy, etc knowing those are "best case wish" prices and brick-and-mortar stores have overhead so their offers will be lower anyway. Well, the offer made for everything was a fair offer and was pretty much in line with my expectations. It is great to be able to do business with reputable and HONEST merchants. I would recommend Dempsey and Baxter anytime because that is who they are!

They took the time to find the maker (something another jeweler had not told me) and even called the maker to learn more about it. They've replaced watch batteries and even a small stone on a ring I purchased on Etsy.

Great selection of vintage items in the back room, all decently priced. I bought beautiful earrings made from vintage buttons for under $10. Overall nice pieces and an eclectic variety of offerings. The store is laid out nicely and is very open.
