The map page he used for the property had the map page for another property in another city. I had another appraisal done due to the errors. The appraisal Nathan did was 17 pages.

Left voicemails and still heard nothing back. Have tried calling 2 more times and just goes directly to voicemail now as if I've been blocked? Unsure why this is so hard to get a hold of anyone at this business who is able to get me info about this Bernhardt couch I have, or just get info in general from anyone even though after doing online research how high demand this brand is. This is the main person/option that comes up but no responses. I think maybe he is closed permanently and has yet to update the info? Either way very frustrating.. 2 stars because I have yet to have a real experience or really any experience at all since I'm unable to get a hold of anyone or get a call back.

I had her redesign our wedding set, because we had "obtained" a bigger center stone, and I wasn't going to trust Zales to do it. So Elizabeth sat with us, and she did a great job showing me what my marquise would look like in a bezel setting. She was patient and understanding. She had sent me a "video" of the wax casting with my stone in it, so I could get a full visual on our design. Picked up the finished ring today, (see picture below) and I almost cried... it was beautiful, the new diamond shines, and sparkles.... It is a beautiful ring, and I am so happy I found Elizabeth. I will always look to her for any of my jewelry/appraisal needs. Elizabeth you rock..... :)

Gary is knowledgeable, meticulous with his records, honest, truthful, very, very competent and has an outstanding staff.

My family needed help with some jewelry we inherited and found John through Yelp. We called him…read morefirst to learn about how he works and immediately felt like he was the right resource for us. We also liked that we didn't have to park and carry a box of potentially valuable jewelry downtown--the trip to Lake Oswego was worth it for that reason alone. He was terrific! We met him as a group and used his "triage" service, and he swiftly went through a multi-generational jewelry collection and tested and separated pieces that had significant potential value or simply contained gold that could be melted down. As he was going through everything we brought, he educated us about gemstones, how the jewelry and auction industry works, how to maximize value when selling and his connections/resources for selling items and more--he was a wealth of information. It was obvious that he was a total professional who's been doing this for a long time. Plus, he was a really nice guy! He also took care of getting the gold pieces we didn't plan to auction or sell melted down and gave us a very favorable commission rate compared to what we would've gotten from a jewelry store or other company that liquidates gold. We had a check in less than a week after seeing him. Highly recommend him!
