I stumped the Yale masters!…read more.. I have this cool Titanium bracelet that needs to be shortened a bit. Brought it in to Yale. The women behind the desk looks it over, sizes it to my wrist and says let me take off just one link and it will fit best. She says it will cost $15.00 and take about 30 minutes. I say take your time, I will sit here on these nice chairs and do work on my phone. She goes to the bench with my bracelet. About 20 minutes later, she consults with the man behind the counter who I think was the owner. She goes back behind the counter and he goes to the bench for about 10 minutes to work on the bracelet. He come back out and changes places with her for another 5 minutes--she works on it again. Then he call me up to the counter and says she is the best, better than me at these things, but we can't figure out how to unscrew the bolt that is holding the link. He says they have the right tool--it just will not turn the bolt, sorry. He did not charge me because they could not do the job. So I asked him since you have been in the Jewelry business so long do you know another place or jeweler that may have the tools/knowledge to shorten this bracelet? He said, "No."

I am older now and no longer wear my watches, diamonds and gold jewelry as much anymore (it literally just sits inside my safe at home ‍. I decided to sell it and started investigating where to go to get an appraisal / to sell some of my pieces. I found "Pacific Jewlery Buyers" in Westgate, CA. I texted the number from google to Pacific Jewelry Buyers and asked if I needed to make and appointment ("mind you it was a week day", not to sure about needing an appointment on the weekend). Paul texted me back and said I wouldn't need an appointment and sent me the hrs of operation for the day. I then texted Paul pictures of the jewelry pieces that I wanted to get appraised and sell, he texted me back and said he was interested. I went to the shop and was pleasantly surprised! Paul was not only friendly but professional and informative. Paul broke things down to a science and educated me on the things that I needed to know about my jewelry (gold/diamonds) and much more. He offered me a fair price to buy my jewelry pieces from me. I left feeling satisfied and informed. I am glad I was fortunate enough to find this place, instead of having to go to multiple places and run around to sell the rest of my pieces. I will be back to bring the rest of my Jewelry "Pacific Jewelry Buyers" as well tell my friends and family! It feels good to build a relationship with someone you can trust in the jewelry industry. From my experience Paul is honest and has integrity and that is a rarity in the jewelry business! What a great experience & what a great guy %

I brought them beautiful rings with precious stones and assistant in back room smashed the stones to only include the gold, not the value of the rings.

Well I guess I was wrong because the price I was given was very low. Trusting this buyer I sold it. The thing is, I forgot to get a quote that included the diamond. The buyer did not even mention to me that it was there. The buyer took a picture of the piece with the sellable gold, but hide the diamond by having it on the bottom.
