He quickly purchased the materials and went in to hammer and stamp his own pendant. The experience ends up being a bit cheaper than actually buying the pendant because of tax or fees and how they're applied, so there is truly no reason not to go an make something while you're in town! As the items get bigger and more expensive, the experience also gets more thorough. The men at the register showed up the block of metal that you can fashion into a knife if you go that route. Definitely something we would do again if we're back in town.

I called Cal Prime only because my plumber, John Wesolok, recommended him. John said Cal was a good…read moreguy and wouldn't rake me over the coals. He was so wrong!! I had Wesolok Plumbing install a new water tank in April 2023. My water pressure previously was at 60 and 40. After the new tank was installed the pressure was at 40 and 20. I called Wesolok Plumbing back after the installation for 4 months to get them back out to fix the water pressure. Finally, mid August they came back out, but couldn't fix the problem. They told me that there could be a problem with the well, and highly recommended Cal Prime. So I called Cal. He said he was working drilling wells in the thumb area and he could only make out here on the weekend. I had no idea where he was from, John Wesolok said he was from Bay City area. So, Cal shows up on Sunday. He checks the well. There's no problem there other than it's a low producing well, which it has been since 1996. He then wants to see the water tank. After a few minutes of checking it out he begins to let the air out of the tank then adjusts the screws for the off and on pressure. All the while telling me how he has fixed the pressure in hundreds of tanks that Wesolok Plumbing installed because they don't change it. The air pressure is preset he said. My thought was, preset to what and does that mean every house has the same pressure? I had asked him what it would cost for him to come out and check the well. He couldn't give me a price, understandably, because he didn't know what was wrong. BUT WHEN HE KNEW IT WAS THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TANK HE SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME TO CALL WESOLOK PLUMBING BECAUSE IT WOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY! So the water pressure is back to what it was previously to the new tank installation. But, Cal charged me $400. to do it! I called John Wesolok and told him what happened and how much Cal charged me. His exact words were "Holy $hit"! He said he would call Cal and talk to him. Ten minutes later I get a phone call from Cal, and he says, "why do you want to ruin a good thing?" He then tells me that someone in my house probably put air in the water tank! I'm the only one living in my house. So I called John Wesolok back and he said he wasn't going to reimburse me for even half! After I told him that Cal said someone put air in the tank, he told me it was probably a defective tank! Thank you for NOTHING BUT BAD SERVICE!!! SCAMMERS!!!

It looked like an 8 yr old hand-hemmed it and as a result, it hung wrong. I took it to Quality Sewing & Alterations, and they took the hem apart, and made it look perfect, like it came from the store where I bought it. it required a lot of work because of the lining. We had a tight turnaround, too, as I was leaving for the UK. She went above and beyond what I was expecting, considering the mess I gave her. I highly recommend this business!!!!!

However we parked at the mall across the street on this trip and this was right across the street. My husband really wants a grandfather clock and he was very excited to check out the selection. Prices seemed kind of high to me but to be fair I don't know anything about grandfather clocks, lol. They also have a nice selection of Frankenmuth magnets, they ranged from like $4 to $10. I ended up buying one of the $4 ones. The reason I'm bumping up this review to five stars is because I lost my Fitbit there (Fitbit Zip, an old one that sits on my waist, not my watch) and when my husband and I got to Kern's and realized it, we rushed back to the store to check there first (it was 530pm). The (owner? Employee?) welcomed us back, and another customer immediately pointed to it on the floor. Saved us a lot of hassle and had they closed immediately at 530pm, the doors may have been locked. Looking forward to checking this store out again the next time we are in town.

Always a great conversation and an education in time pieces. The group in the back can repair or restore most anything. We've had two intricate grandfathers restored and they do incredible work. One took six months and the other seven. The wait was well worth it. Back to the store. They have clocks of all sizes and price ranges. On our initial visit to the store we spent over an hour, like it were a museum. This isn't the dime store, so know that you'll be paying a hefty price for most any clock here. Again, it's an investment that justifies the price. This is also your place for authentic German Christmas pyramids. We bought the pyramid with Seiffen church for under $100. A neat little wooden pyramid with a German church, carolers and a Christmas tree. When the tea lights are lit, the rising heat causes the blades to turn.
