In response to the previous comment I totally disagree. Thornton's tried to tell me one of my…read morerings had white sapphires rather than diamonds. I'm not fond of Thornton's at all. I've purchased several pieces of jewelry among other items and their selection is much better than Thornton's Pawn. A jewelry store may have more jewelry to choose from but you will pay much more. I prefer to purchase at Gateway and one other pawn shop for jewelry. I receive a much better deal. Gateway has two locations with jewelry to choose from. They are far more reputable in my opinion. The owner and staff are so friendly and accommodating in every possible way.

I can't express over a simple written review how amazing the staff here is. Gavin and Briggs have…read morehelped me every time I need help with my firearms. They have always been courteous, respectful, knowledgeable, timely and overall just a good hang. Every single time I'm here there's a reason why I don't mind driving over 2 1/2 hours, to come back to see these guys at this location. No matter what, I will continue to always use these guys for any firearm service or purchasing.

The manager charged me for all the months back and didn't even offer a break since I am out here working on making American lives better! LMAO. Stay away from this place! They have nicer ranges in Lawrenceville! On the other hand, they rarely run the extractors, so you come out of there with an irritated throat and eyes!! Shells aren't swept between customers. Ridiculous to say the least, charged me 174 dollars and he had the nerve to let me know that I have another bill due before the 30-day cancellation so that I had to pay that in order for the cancellation to keep processing! Damn if you are that needy for money close down the store, get a job! And the most stupid par of all, you have to come into the store to sign and cancel the contract. It's a damn gun range for God's sake!!! I am going to say a prayer for these people tonight! WOW

Used to be the best jewelry store in Athens. Customer service was top notch. They always stood…read morebehind anything they sold. As of July 2026, some other people have bought them out. They're still operating under the same name, but they are nothing like it's always been. One of the new owners said they would no longer offer their lifetime warranty. The woman was so ugly because they had to replace a clasp on a chain I had bought there. She said the chain wasn't purchased there and was gonna charge me over $160 to replace the clasp and clean it. When I went to pick it up, I showed her the receipt where I had purchased the chain there. She was not happy. She said they were not going to keep paying for these things.After 30+ years, I walked out for the last time. Such a shame.

Truly DISGUSTED with the fact that I chose to give them my business. We purchased a ring guard from…read morethem and had it resized and were essentially guaranteed that everything would fit and be perfect. Not only does in not fit but properly but the back of the guard doesn't even touch her finger because the opening will not let the ring sit properly. To make things even better my Fiancée was told to take it home and wear it and it would "feel better after a few days" Look at the photo and tell me why they let her walk out of the store like this after she tried it on and voiced her concern!! Crap customer service and THEY HAVE A NO RETURN POLICY!! Even if you buy it from them and THEY do the alteration they still will not do a return!! BEWARE !! Essentially stuck with a band that I have no use for $2,500 DOWN THE DRAIN !!

They have a "repair bar" where you can bring your power tools or mower, etc... and they will diagnose it on the spot. Thomas was very helpful in getting my lawnmower issues resolved without me even bringing it in. I just had photos and described the issue. Tiffany helped me find a replacement part for my auger and now it works again. These folks know their stuff! Before going to Lowe's or Home Depot, try out your local Ace Hardware first! They don't have everything the big box stores may have but they have the home town feel and can always order it. The prices aren't outrageous either.

If I had known the average time to certify a Form 4 was 5-7 weeks, I would have taken my business elsewhere. It wasn't explained to me it would take so long until after the sale was made.
