I was told about this place from a person where I bought my ring. It is sterling silver and it's…read morehard to find a place to size sterling silver. Here they sized it for me and also were so honest and told me about the risk of changing the size. They gave me valuable information about this type of metal, it has a history of loosing stones eventually bc it is a soft metal. Also, when the size is changed bc of the design of my ring, it may then rub on the sides of my other fingers bc it will be brought down more to get the correct size. I got it sized. They did a beautiful job and I am glad they were so honest. Hard to find that in companies any more. Everyone was very knowledgeable. I definitely recommend this business.

I would be careful before going forward with an item with Patterson's. My fiancé and I went in to…read moreget a wedding band, we wanted it in platinum and were told we would have to go the custom route. In doing so they gave us a verbal estimate of how much it would cost so we could give them $150 to do a drawing and get a more accurate estimate. Before I was willing to go forward and risk my $150 they assured me it would be close to that estimate. Industry standard is a 10% change on verbal estimates. I gave them my $150 and they came back with a quote 50% higher than the number they convinced me into giving them $150. I was wanting to go through Patterson's but they gave me no good explanation on why they would go up 50% of the original estimate. They said there is nothing they could do and I would have to pay the 50% increase or loose out on that $150. This shop was very deceitful and I no longer trust them. Be cautious!

I had a coin and paper currency collection that I started many years ago. However, it became time…read moreto sell it because I knew that my kids did not have an interest. I visited at least six different local dealers and got the best purchase offer from Gary Adkins. Gary is one of the few local coin dealers that is not just a gold and silver buyer. He truly interested in numismatics and has been in business for over 50 years. Unlike most of the people I visited, he was very transparent, and took a generous amount of time to evaluate the entire collection and make a very fair offer. I believe that he is very honest and trustworthy, based on the interaction I had with him. Whether you are buying or selling, I recommend making an appointment and discussing your situation with him.

These people aren't trustworthy and will exploit you if you're not sure what you're doing. They're like those used car salespeople from the 70s. These guys will pull some sneaky moves and take advantage of your inexperience. They seem friendly and super helpful, but they'll happily take as much of your money as you allow them if you're not cautious. They have been reported and hopefully they'll be investigated
