So grateful for this place. I buy, sell and trade a lot at Jewelry and Coin Mart. When I leave the…read morestore, I always feel good. Talking about selling a piece of jewelry when you're in need is a delicate matter. Even embarrassing to admit you need the money. Other "We buy gold" shops leave you with a demeaning of morale. I used to get the same scripted answer from other places: "How much do you want for this?" You name your price and they practically laugh at you and tell you you're not being reasonable. So they offer half of your asking price. Upon further inspection, they say they have to call their [ non-existent manager ] for approval. Then come back to say that they can only buy your piece for 1/3rd or less. They pick at any reason to make you believe your piece is nearly worthless. They tell you that you're getting a great deal. When you are not. Irene is kind, straight forward and upfront. No judgment or belittling. Either the shop can buy it or not. Irene has often redirected me to other shops who bought my items. Good ethics is good business.

I've been to Piccard several times now. Once, we went to sell some gold coins, another time we went…read moreto change watch batteries, then a third time to help my mother pick out new earrings. Piccard has a small selection, but they all appear to be good pieces. These days, I understand why a jeweler wouldn't want to have a lot of stock - robberies or the cost of goods being high, it really doesn't make sense to have much in stock. But, they do have a lot of catalogs you can review, and he will order anything you want. More so, I trust them. When we went to sell our gold coins, they were US Coins, proof. They said he would buy them by weight, but we would probably get more from a coin dealer. They could have just given us the money and marked up the coins, but they didn't. That earned my trust and my business.

We weren't pressured at all to upgrade to more expensive options. In fact, we decided to not do diamonds all the way around my wife's band based on Joe's recommendation. He also did a sizing readjustment for me super quickly. We're really happy with our decision to buy from Piccard!

The store is a bit of a time warp, but you kinda have to love that. I'm not a coin expert, but I needed to sell some silver coins my dad had for MANY decades and after doing a good amount of research I called Arlington Coin who said over the phone they were buying then offered what I'm confident was a very fair price after reviewing the coins. Downtown Arlington Heights has changed a lot over the decades, but this place is still the same and a great option for supporting a local business and get great prices if you're in the market to buy or sell coins.

The customer service is approachable and friendly without being intrusive. I feel comfortable taking my time looking around in here, it has a nice ambiance. They have plenty of things apart from jewelry, some very nice musical instruments, power tools, and awesome electronics. Prices are more fair than any other shop I've been to by a mile. I love my two new pieces of jewelry and look forward to going back for more.

Made a quick stop for a repair. I've seen this place but never stopped in before…read more April welcomed us and was able to do the repair immediately! Mind you, it was minor and even then, I thought we'd have to leave it. It is a lovely jewelry store with some beautiful items! We browsed while waiting on the repair. April was done quick and the cost was reasonable. Thank you April, and Leonard's Jewelry! We would surely come in again and recommend you!

I went in to Leonard's the last week of July to get a battery replacement on my mother's watch. My…read moremom passed away recently and her memorial service was the following week in southern IL. I wanted to wear the watch in her memory. I knew I wouldn't have much luck getting a replacement down south and I was in a hurry to get packed and on the road, so called Leonard's. They were closing in about 30 minutes, but I was a bit desperate and asked if I could stop by. The woman on the phone was so incredibly nice and said she could get me in despite having other customers at the time who were being serviced. She mentioned there is a battery shortage, but she'd see what they could do. I ran over and leave Chiluba they had the right battery. They got my moms watch done in maybe ten minutes. Both the women were so sweet, considerate and friendly. They were very attentive to the other customers and I could see that they truly care about their business. The one woman even showed me how to change the time and date on my moms watch and carefully instructed me so as not to break the turner. They both asked me about my trip (I didn't mention it was for my moms memorial), and about the area I was headed to and then wished me safe travels. I can't thank these two women enough. They have no idea how much it meant to me to be able to wear the watch and that their kindness put my distressed and saddened heart at ease even for a few minutes. Thanks ladies! You made my entire week better than you could ever know.

Their scale showed my bracelet at only 17.26 grams, and they tested it as 18K gold, even though I know for a fact that it is 21K gold. Based on their results, they offered me only $2,200. I then went to another pawn shop in Arlington Heights, where my bracelet weighed 25.7 grams and I was offered $2,600. The large difference in both the weight and offer raised serious concerns for me. Because of that, I will not be coming back.
