The owner was super friendly and welcoming and there was no sales pressure.

I walked out with the cute hair clip only, but worth the browse if you're into vintage/thrifting.

I've been on the hunt for a reclining couch. I searched everywhere and felt pretty disappointed by…read morethe limited options and high prices. But then I remembered New & Again! Can you believe I bought my very first couch there about 20 years ago for just $137.25? That couch was my favorite. Over the years, I've tried different sectionals and luxury leather Macy's couches, but nothing quite eased my lower back as I hoped. When I walked into New & Again, I saw her, my perfect lazy boy reclining couch. She's just right for me, works wonderfully, and truly brings me joy. I also spotted a gently used Kate Spade purse near the register and had to take her home too! The best part? The incredible kindness and friendliness of the staff. I'm so thrilled with my new purchases and can't wait to visit again!

It's worth the drive. Be kind to one another

My favorite Jeweler. I got my ring and necklace here and they are a perfect custom-made match set…read more Unless you go to this jeweler you won't find another like it. If you are looking for a unique ring here is the place to go. They are very patient as you pick out your jewelry and don't try to upsell you. They listen to what you are looking for and help you find just what your heart desires. Their jewelry is truly magical I love that they have free cleanings and they always check to ensure the stones don't come loose. We try to come once a month or every other month depending on our schedules. Run don't walk as they are closing their doors around Christmas as it's time to retire. They have a big sale going on now and I'm hoping to get some matching earrings. It's going to be a sad loss to the community when they close their doors.

It was my first time visiting Old Sac so it was interesting visiting here and finding Skalet tucked away here. Street parking (if available) is cheaper than the garage as FYI.

I was really excited to come in and look at wedding bands since my fiancé had my engagement ring…read moreset here and previously had a great experience. Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing and honestly confusing. I came in with my newborn son and my mom, and after waiting a few minutes without being acknowledged we walked up to the front desk to ask for help. A staff member assisted us and showed a few bands. When I found one I liked, I asked if it could be made in yellow gold. She said she would check with the vendor and offered to clean my engagement ring so I could look at the bands with my clean ring. After a few minutes, she returned with my ring, and when I asked to try on another band, she told us she was now helping someone else and couldn't assist us further.This was surprising since she had been helping us the entire time up to that point. I was ready to move forward with purchasing a ring but never received an answer about pricing and was told no when I asked to see another option. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

I bought my very first Seiko watch here: 100% New and Authentic at a reasonable price. Most importantly, I spoke with staff who have a genuine adoration and respect for watches, which provided a meaningful and memorable experience. I'm so glad and will always remember having purchased my first Seiko here. Additionally, the staff also helped my partner get set up with her first Seiko too! They adjusted both our watches already to wear out the door, as well as demonstrated how to maintain and adjust them. Definitely coming back here again on my next visit and will purchase further watches from here. Thank you so much! #watchbroswithmygf

I'm about to go there to have a watch cleaned and a new strap put on. I trust Simon and his wonderful staff, in particular the charming brunette who works in front.
