Crooked
Park10 minutes agoThis business is a complete FRAUD They stole my bracelet From the store to the Corporate off CEO they are crookedand need to be prosecuted They lie and they pass you off from salesperson to salesperson with no one being honest toaccountable I believe I was treated poorly because I am an African American female senior I took my 4 95 carat bracelet to have all of the links reinforced Wore my bracelet twice and it broke So therefore theytook my money and didn t do the repairs Fast forward 4 2022 I took my bracelet back to them and told them mybracelet broke again after they supposedly repaired it They took my bracelet back in for repairs 4 26 I called andchecked on the status of my repairs Two days later I received a call from Kathy the manager telling me that my braceletwas lost They told me I can come and pick one up or they would make one exactly like mine but they would get backwith me in a week or so When they got back in touch with me after about two weeks they told me my bracelet wasready so I was not given an option to pick one out Went to pick the bracelet up it was missing the safety chain Sobracelet had to be sent out again for the safety chain another 2-4 weeks When I finally went to pick the bracelet up theframe of the bracelet was very small the diamonds looked very tiny and they included a very long thin safety chain Itappeared to be a child s bracelet Called corporate talked to Mark Doddridge who stated that the frame of the braceletwas much smaller than my original one and to send it back ASAP So you see they knowingly tried to deceive me Markstated that due to the year that I purchased my bracelet in 2005 that they no longer carried that frame and that if he hadto give me a 7-8 carat bracelet no expenses to me he would to compensate for my losses They did have my exact framein the store but they were unwilling to put the 4 95 carat diamonds in the frame After that date Mark stopped taking mycalls and I spoke with Moein and Gino The two stated that they were willing to make me a different design or I could goin the store and pick out one I was unwilling to take a different design I went in the store and picked out one and theyintimidated and bullied me into spending 1532 00 to get my bracelet back otherwise I would not have anything So theirintent was to steal my bracelet and force me into spending a large sum of money or taking one of far less value than my Original one

Don t make a big MISTAKE
I really don t want someone to make a similar mistake I bought my wife s wedding set at the jewelry exchange in Norristown My first big jewelry purchase ever Really the WORST financial decision I have made I carefully selected the diamonds and the settings I listened to the promises the manager made me I looked at their EGL appraisal of the diamonds and made the purchase after haggling i received about 800 off the sticker price I thought I did pretty good After we got married I wanted to make sure my 8500 I was not a rich guy was 9300 Investment was protected so I opted to add a rider to our insurance They demand an appraisal so I offered the EGL cert it comes with but they stated they only accept real appraisals Unknown to me EGL certs are not real go figure So i got my first real appraisal and it was for 4100 I was thinking BS I went and got two other real appraisals and they were 4000 and 3950 from reputable appraisers in the industry They are appraisers recognized by the insurance industry Their real appraisals are accepted by the most stringent for the accuracy of their appraisals I did not tell either about the appraisal before them After each completed their examination I showed each appraiser the EGL cert of value and they also replied they re not real Understand that the appraisals are what it should cost to buy a new set at full retail price The truth is the value of their diamonds and rings at full retail replacement value is half what they charge That s very bad compared to most any other jewelry store not in an alley So bottom line is they re charging you twice what the industry charges for the same thing And when I brought them back to the jewelry exchange and demanded restitution they simply said ohh sorry all sales are final Its in the contract you signed but they offered me a STORE CREDIT of 2500 towards the purchase of something else if I wanted to return them 6000 less than I paid Before you buy do research about the BS appraisals certs these corrupt stores offer and buy from a real jewelry store not used car salespeople in cheap suits Now i go to a local family owned store that every appraisal matches or exceeds the price I paid I hope you find a reputable jewelry store It should be a happy and wonderful experience even after your purchase

Buyer beware HORRIBLE QUALITY
Buyer beware Don t buy trust me I ordered a yellow gold diamond ring I never buy on-line but did this time they sent me a white gold ring I ordered a SI 1 grade ring they sent me a I 2 ring The diamond is cloudy and not brilliant and clear like I was told by a CS Agent who I trust and spent 1 hour on the phone with him I called to discuss the disappointment and they took no accountability They did say I can return and get it replaced but I d have to pay shipping and they d have to build the ring I need it by a certain date and no matter what I do they won t meet the time line The ring looks cheap after spending 3000 00 If I could rate them a 0 I would Don t waste your time or money Definitely don t buy via the internet Even with my issues I can t return the ring at one of their stores Inconvenient and horrible experience THEY AREN T HONEST QUALITY IS POOR

I have been buying jewelry at The Jewelry Exchange in Bethesda for years The people who work there are great Yes they do have some diamonds that are not great but look at the price You can t expect a stone for 500 to look like the one for 5000 They will show you the difference and you choose what to do
