The store has an excellent selection of new & vintage pieces, and the staff are welcoming and always remembered us on repeat visits. Heather has a great eye and figured out my taste quickly, making it easy to find a vintage engagement ring setting I loved - then worked with us to customize the stones, remaining patient throughout a lot of back and forth. A year later, we found a vintage wedding band that matched it perfectly. As an added bonus, both pieces happened to be discounted during their annual summer sale (which I highly recommend checking out). She also found the perfect wedding band for my husband-to-be. No matter what your budget is, you will be treated well and find something fantastic here. I absolutely recommend supporting this local business.

He visited several jewelers across OC, from large retailers to family owned stores and even some that were recommended by other friends/family but none compared to the genuine care and honest customer service he received from Kathy and Jenny here! I came with my fiancé on his first visit here to get sized and choose some shapes that I preferred. Kathy patiently walked us through sizing and explored different shapes with zero pressure and so much patience. We loved how relatable she was and how natural and genuine our convos went! When he returned on his own, Jenny took her time to educate him fully and showcased her expertise (being in the business for 30+ years) and made sure he truly understood every detail, not just the 4 C's, but things other stores never even mentioned so he could feel confident making such an important decision. They actually encouraged him to even take his time and check out other places to make sure he was confident in his decision. This kind of customer care made all the difference! I didn't see the ring until the proposal, and it was absolutely perfect! But what makes it even more meaningful is knowing how much thought, care, and intention went into choosing it and how much of that came from the guidance he received there. I really can't thank both Jenny and Kathy enough for making his experience so smooth and seamless! If you're starting your ring journey and feel overwhelmed, go to South Coast Jewelers. They don't just sell you a ring, they make you feel confident, excited, and taken care of which makes this kind of experience so much more priceless.

She walked us through the process, answered everything we asked, and never made us feel rushed or like we were taking up her time. What we appreciated most was her honesty. Erica was clear about what was realistic and what wasn't, and she never oversold our chances just to keep us hopeful. And she followed through. She said she would reach out if the watch became available, and she did exactly that. The morning she reached out, my wife and I just stared at each other, and then we were jumping around the room like a couple of kids. When we came in to pick it up, she still remembered the details of a conversation we'd had months earlier. It never felt like a transaction. The handover was relaxed, nobody rushed us, and the whole team was welcoming. If you get the chance, ask for Erica. Whether you're buying something straightforward or hoping for something that takes time, you'll be in good hands. We can't recommend her enough, thank you Erica!

I couldn't be happier with the final result--I catch myself admiring my ring every chance I get! They have become my go-to jeweler. Communication is always clear, their lead times are excellent, and they are an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. I also love that they offer complimentary diamond cleanings, which is such a nice added touch. I highly recommend Liberty Diamonds to anyone looking for engagement rings, wedding bands, or a jeweler they can trust!

Had a very negative experience here. I came to get an item consigned…read more First immediate red flag was them asking how much I wanted versus how much they think it could move on the open market. They looked at my piece and said it was worth about $200-$500 for the stone (which was GIA certified with documented origin) plus scrap value for the setting. The process didn't feel transparent. An explanation was given for their valuation, but it didn't align with the certification or current market pricing. I took it to another market participant who valued the stone only (not including setting) for over $6,000 dollars. If you are interested on a consignment or sale option, I would highly recommend getting multiple opinions on pricing before settling on an option especially if you are not familiar with pricing of precious stones. 2 star for good location and decent parking.

Ok let's see...this insulting experience with CDM was so bad, I'm not sure where to start. 1) First…read moreoff, I'm traveling and so I emailed Jules on 7/10 through his online comment form to find out about consigning 2 luxury pendants, from Antonini Milano (limited-run, couture finely crafted pieces from this meticulous Italian jeweler who has been crafting fine Italian jewelry since 1919- many stars love the brand-and my sister and I met him personally in Ohio at the jeweler we frequented) gave him the appraised value and asked if I could send my partner in to show them to him. He agreed. My partner took them in, and out of the gate, Jules insulted the appraiser from Dana Point, indicating he must have made a mistake on his appraisal because these items could not be worth that much. Mind you they were gifts to me from my sister purchased at a very high end jeweler in Ohio several years ago. Jules offered $1000 for the smaller piece and $2000 for the larger pendant and recorded it in his book. After this initial visit, is when the bottom fell out of the communication process. Jules told my partner that he was going to email me that day, which he didn't. Out of at least 6 additional emails I sent between 7/10 and 8/14, I received no additional response from this jeweler to any of the questions I had, and he lied to me telling me he didn't get any of them. The only response I did get, was on the next visit to Jules by my partner to sell the smaller pendant, to which Jules reneged on the initial pricing offer he had made, even though it was written down in his book, again insulting the appraiser and pretty much treating my partner in way that raised many eyebrows and questions as to whether or not he was being discriminated against due to being an older African American man. Jules treated both of us like we didn't know what we were talking about each time and was quite insulting. He asked me to email my DL to him to complete the transaction, and I replied, this is the same email address I've been sending emails to, but I bet you'll get this one. Of course he did. He also would not honor the $2000 price he quoted originally on the larger piece, instead quoting $1621. So I held off-- and he repeatedly said we didn't know what we were talking about regarding either piece. Now a day ago, on 8/20, because Jules had quoted such a good price on the larger pendant, we tried once again, despite the initial humiliation, to see if he would be a man of his word and give us the $1621 he had quoted the 2nd time on the larger piece. He again insulted my partner, this time offering only $960. He also insulted the appraiser from Dana Point again, and this time the actual jeweler himself - (jeweler to the stars who has been in business since 1919) saying that the certification I got for the pendant, directly from Antonini Milano, was wrong and said they must not have sold me that exact piece, and that even Antonini didn't get the carat count on the diamonds correct.) Again, knowing where the item was purchased, having met Antonini himself, and now knowing first hand from my partner how Jules insulted everyone involved as well as this beautiful piece of jewelry that I had such a fondness for, was too much for me not to come write this lengthy review. If you are caucasian or wealthy, your experience may be different, but we were treated in humiliating fashion each time. The only reason my partner returned was upon agreement with me to see if Jules would honor the pricing he'd quoted and documented. Jules is not a man of his word, his integrity is questionable and he may also not enjoy working with you if you are not of a certain color persuasion. This was our experience. Never again.
