Popped in with 3 watches - the nice lady said 10-15 minutes, so I came back. (Was offered coffee, water, soda).

I was heading on a dive trip and wanted to bring one clip for a friend. They weren't finished a full week after the scheduled pick up. I was - - incredibly sad and disappointed. Giving two stars because staff were friendly, apologetic and offered to mail them back to me since I won't be home to pick up for three weeks. UPDATE 9/13: I'm home. The clips were not shipped as I was told they would be on 8/26. I had to drive to the store - 30 minutes - to check status. They were still just sitting here. I waited weeks for engraving that never happened. I waited weeks more for shipping that never happened. Not once did the store contact me. Not once did they do what they committed to doing. I will not, again, work with this jeweler.

A knowledgeable staff person examined my ring and saw the bent prong. She took the piece straight to the jeweler doing repairs and in a quick moment, my ring was fixed. One lovingly performed cleaning later I was out and on my way in 15min, treated royally and efficiently. So grateful as I was dreading doing this errand. If I needed a jeweler again for either repair or purchase, I would go there first as their selection was impressive and their service first rate.

Sharon was my go to person and she has been retired for several years now. Brown's has moved their location from a side street in Freeport to Main Street. I was there for the first time in several years to buy a pearl drop necklace for a recent graduate. My limit for spending was 1000.00. The selection was small but that was okay. The graduate was with me and we both found one that she really liked. She wanted white gold and it was shown in yellow. The person helping us was so pushy. The graduate has just barely tried it on and the person asked if she could wrap it up for us. We told her that we wanted white gold and she didn't know if it came in white gold. She said she would find out while we were at lunch. We never went back. Also a note for the owner. One of the pieces we were interested in was a necklace with a single pearl resting on a curved gold bar. We both loved the necklace but it wasn't centered on the bar. It wasn't a piece made there I guess but someone should have inspected it before it was put on display. The atmosphere was different in the new building, not the elegance that I experienced in the old building. Hope that you do okay and that your brand is something the traffic can tolerate.

I had chosen to pick through and purchase some coins in their "world silver coin" box, but I (after purchasing a large number) have disappointingly found a few coins that aren't silver at all - but copper nickel. Their pricing on this box was also very loose with the cashier taking a "rough mental average" of the purity of the coins and adding a "small" premium over spot. While I should've known better to pick only coins I'm familiar with and trusting this undisclosed "small premium", they shouldn't have had any non-silver coinage in the silver coinage bin. I'm sure it would be a headache, but separating the world coins based on purity and not a "rough average" would provide a MUCH better experience for the customer.

We called to check on the bell and first were told the girl who could work on it didn't come in until 10 one morning and they would call us with an update. I'm sure there was some confusion with myself calling and my husband being the person they called back however, after we called to check again on the bell, we were told that they engraved it, didn't like how it came out, buffed it, and would be re-engraving it. Once again, when we called to check on it, we were told that the girl that did engraving didn't work on Mondays. Then, next thing we know, they are telling us they can no longer engrave it. I understand that unpredictable situations occur and perhaps my perception of the experience is a bit different, but we were told they could do something and then after apparently doing work, could no longer perform the service requested. It just felt a bit off... everyone was friendly when we would call so nothing against the employees, just ended up being a situation that set us back on this project (a gift) a few weeks longer than we would have liked and just seemed like we were being given false information.
