Not mentioning names so I don't get my review flagged, but S.E. is either the Grinch incarnate or a merely a small, angry man... either way, the ownership is too complacent or lazy to do anything about it. My now fiancee and I brought her engagement ring there to be resized after being recommended to do so from the store we purchased from. Their website mentions "most resizing done within an hour", so we figured we would give it a shot. Upon arrival, as mentioned above, the jeweler saw it, and gave us a time that it would be complete by, "give me a couple hours", cool, we can walk around the mall, eat, kill time. About 15 minutes away from the time we were given for pickup, seeing as we were walking right by the store, we decided to check and see if it was done. We arrive and ask, and the jeweler scoffs "it will be ready closer to when you were told it would be ready". We explained to him we were told 3pm, and currently it was nearly 2:50pm. His reply? "I guess I better get started on that then". We are in no-rush, so we tell him okay, and that we will go next door to the restaurant there for a couple drinks and a snack. Before we are even finished with our single drink each, and a small plate of wings, he is in the establishment schmoozing with other bar patrons. We then return to the store and, thankfully the ring is done. We look at it, and well, it's good enough, but we've been in the mall around 6 hours at this point. I explain that I had planned on proposing that night, and while I appreciate the quick turnaround on this type of job, I will likely be bringing it back to have it corrected and returned to as close to it was when we bought it, to which they agree is fine. That Sunday, about 2-3 days before Christmas, I return with the ring. I am discussing with the jeweler that, for as confident as he was, this (small) resize does not exude "40 years of experience" and I would like him to correct that and fix the issues with it. Issues being, when resizing, he did not cut evenly or did not bend it in evenly causing the settings to basically be lopsided when the ring was on the finger, the diamond itself was far looser than when we brought it, and, worst of all, in resizing, he added metal to the tension setting as it had opened up a little. This metal not match, nor look consistent with the white gold on the rest of the ring, it was not built up, nor sanded enough to not look like a sack of potatoes (shown in pictures). He agrees that it isn't his best work and will fix it up for us. I proceed to ask him about when he thinks he'll be able to work on it / general timeframe, as once again, I know it's close to Christmas. I mention it's not a huge rush and I don't want him to think I'm rushing him, as that may have been the case initially, causing him to perform less than stellar work. He mentions "It'll be done Wednesday"... puzzled I reply "Oh, on Christmas Day? You're not taking the day off?"... his response "I'm f-n Jewish, I don't give an f about Christmas, I'm going to work and make some cash". Somewhat shocked by the delivery, but hey that's his choice to work Christmas, I smiled and nodded and left the ring with him. Christmas passes, it's Thursday so I am expecting to get a call that it's ready. Nothing. Towards the end of day, I call. One of the other staff members goes to look and then informs me he can't even find the ring, and he would ask the jeweler and get back to me. Doesn't get back to me. Now it's Friday evening, I call again. "It's on the bench ready to be worked on. It will be ready for Sunday". Sunday comes and goes as we traveled to do a late Christmas with my fiancee's family, no call Sunday. Monday we return, later in the day, figuring we would give them a final chance to rectify the situation. We get there, the ring is still on the bench and has yet to be started, and to boot the jeweler isn't there. The nice woman at the counter tells us that she thinks he just went to grab a quick bite or use the bathroom but should be back soon. We wait around, and he finally returns, and it STILL hasn't been started. There is finally some back and forth, a bunch of excuses, and I ask for the ring back. "I guess you want your money back to?" "Yep, thanks for making that so easy'. I then mention that if it can't be fixed, I will hold the business liable for refunding me the cost of the ring itself to get a replacement. "Sure thing buddy!" as he hands me a business card, with his personal number written on the back with "text". Would 100% avoid this place if you want anything other than cheap/theater jewelry fixed lest deal with this payaso.

Jewelry displays present. I'm so glad I beat the crowd because after I was seen, there was a line. Service: exceptional, excellent, exceeded my expectations! Ms. Donna was amazing! She examined all the jewelries I brought, explained the process of jewelry repair. Provided great insight and recommendations. I felt I can trust all staff here just with my encounter with Ms Donna. Watch battery change took 5-7 minutes. They even cleaned the watch for us. Price: now this is the important part - alongside service, quality of work, you also shop around for the price of service. When I came here and got the quote I've realized I've been getting overcharged and getting ripped off at other places! Like the repair shops in chapel hill, Durham and south point mall For example: battery change in other places were $50-75- we got all sort of excuses that it is a special watch, need special battery from other places. Here $15 + tax. Informed us the battery should last (+/-) 5 years. Repair quote was fraction of the cost we got quoted previously at the other places. Very satisfied and will be definitely coming here!
