First of all, I would give zero stars, but everybody there was understanding and communicative…read moreEXCEPT the "head" jeweler with "40 years of experience" (which he gladly gloated about when we showed him the ring / told him another shop didn't feel comfortable resizing the due to being a tension setting). Not mentioning names so I don't get my review flagged, but S.E. is either the Grinch incarnate or a merely a small, angry man... either way, the ownership is too complacent or lazy to do anything about it. My now fiancee and I brought her engagement ring there to be resized after being recommended to do so from the store we purchased from. Their website mentions "most resizing done within an hour", so we figured we would give it a shot. Upon arrival, as mentioned above, the jeweler saw it, and gave us a time that it would be complete by, "give me a couple hours", cool, we can walk around the mall, eat, kill time. About 15 minutes away from the time we were given for pickup, seeing as we were walking right by the store, we decided to check and see if it was done. We arrive and ask, and the jeweler scoffs "it will be ready closer to when you were told it would be ready". We explained to him we were told 3pm, and currently it was nearly 2:50pm. His reply? "I guess I better get started on that then". We are in no-rush, so we tell him okay, and that we will go next door to the restaurant there for a couple drinks and a snack. Before we are even finished with our single drink each, and a small plate of wings, he is in the establishment schmoozing with other bar patrons. We then return to the store and, thankfully the ring is done. We look at it, and well, it's good enough, but we've been in the mall around 6 hours at this point. I explain that I had planned on proposing that night, and while I appreciate the quick turnaround on this type of job, I will likely be bringing it back to have it corrected and returned to as close to it was when we bought it, to which they agree is fine. That Sunday, about 2-3 days before Christmas, I return with the ring. I am discussing with the jeweler that, for as confident as he was, this (small) resize does not exude "40 years of experience" and I would like him to correct that and fix the issues with it. Issues being, when resizing, he did not cut evenly or did not bend it in evenly causing the settings to basically be lopsided when the ring was on the finger, the diamond itself was far looser than when we brought it, and, worst of all, in resizing, he added metal to the tension setting as it had opened up a little. This metal not match, nor look consistent with the white gold on the rest of the ring, it was not built up, nor sanded enough to not look like a sack of potatoes (shown in pictures). He agrees that it isn't his best work and will fix it up for us. I proceed to ask him about when he thinks he'll be able to work on it / general timeframe, as once again, I know it's close to Christmas. I mention it's not a huge rush and I don't want him to think I'm rushing him, as that may have been the case initially, causing him to perform less than stellar work. He mentions "It'll be done Wednesday"... puzzled I reply "Oh, on Christmas Day? You're not taking the day off?"... his response "I'm f-n Jewish, I don't give an f about Christmas, I'm going to work and make some cash". Somewhat shocked by the delivery, but hey that's his choice to work Christmas, I smiled and nodded and left the ring with him. Christmas passes, it's Thursday so I am expecting to get a call that it's ready. Nothing. Towards the end of day, I call. One of the other staff members goes to look and then informs me he can't even find the ring, and he would ask the jeweler and get back to me. Doesn't get back to me. Now it's Friday evening, I call again. "It's on the bench ready to be worked on. It will be ready for Sunday". Sunday comes and goes as we traveled to do a late Christmas with my fiancee's family, no call Sunday. Monday we return, later in the day, figuring we would give them a final chance to rectify the situation. We get there, the ring is still on the bench and has yet to be started, and to boot the jeweler isn't there. The nice woman at the counter tells us that she thinks he just went to grab a quick bite or use the bathroom but should be back soon. We wait around, and he finally returns, and it STILL hasn't been started. There is finally some back and forth, a bunch of excuses, and I ask for the ring back. "I guess you want your money back to?" "Yep, thanks for making that so easy'. I then mention that if it can't be fixed, I will hold the business liable for refunding me the cost of the ring itself to get a replacement. "Sure thing buddy!" as he hands me a business card, with his personal number written on the back with "text". Would 100% avoid this place if you want anything other than cheap/theater jewelry fixed lest deal with this payaso.

Bailey's Fine Jewelry was very kind and accommodating with my initial return after my husband…read morepurchased gold and diamond earrings for Christmas. I decided that for the investment, I would prefer an updated wedding band instead and was looking at a two-tone style. The sales process started smoothly, and sizing seemed straightforward at first. However, the communication around ordering and sizing became confusing. I was initially told the ring would take 5-7 days to come in, then 12 weeks, then suddenly it arrived. When the ring came in, it was still too large. After returning to have it adjusted, I was told the wrong size had been ordered (a 5.5 instead of a 5), and that it would need to be reordered again -- potentially another 12 weeks -- with no clear confirmation whether it could even be sized properly once it arrived. Ultimately, I requested a refund, which I did receive, though there was some hesitation due to timing even though the delays were outside of my control. The staff was polite throughout, and I genuinely liked the ring, but the inconsistent communication and sizing issues made the experience more frustrating than it should have been for such an important purchase.

As a jeweler, they should know scratch tests are not meant for higher carat gold but a xrf or pmi gun. Took it to a pawn shop for testing and even the jewel recycle and they both confirmed it was 24k. Them being jewelers, they should know this and not try to scam customers. Their work is amazing from what I have seen but I can not trust them. Beware.

From the moment I met one of the owners, this gem of a store got my attention. Before setting foot into the shop, I was impressed by their proactive, organic social media campaigns. The visit to Jewel Smith of Durham blew our minds. The attention to in-store customer service was most refreshing and sadly unique. They know how to make the jewelry purchase experience fun and memorable. Each piece is created by talented architects with impressive tools and timeless machinery. There are exquisite pieces that are one of a kind with gems carefully purchased from every part of our planet. I realized after my first visit to the local mall here how I'd never again attempt a purchase at a chain jeweler. It's not too late for Christmas with their fully staffed extended Holiday hours and a dedicated parking lot. And then there's always Valentines Day.
