As she let me touch the ring she grabbed it from my hand and took it right back as if I was going to take the ring and run away with it or something which Honestly as a jewelry business you should have better customer service but now I can clearly see why your business is not doing so well and is going Out of Business. They claim to have a 70% off but they seem to have marked up the jewelry so high once you add the discount it's still as if your paying regular price for it. I had the money to buy as it was my birthday but thanks to them I rather go to a big store like Macys instead of giving a small business my money when their being quite rude, disrespectful and racist to top it off!!

While we were waiting for the person working at that time to finish up with another customer, we waited at the front & looked at the back of the rings displayed in the window. We were NOT behind the counter but off to the side to give the couple in front of us room when the person working stopped her conversation with another couple to instruct us not to stand behind the counter & to come to the front. She treated us as though we were about to steal or didn't have the money to purchase an item. Basically, if you don't "look" like you have money, be prepared to not look "suspicious." We chose to take ourselves (and our money) elsewhere.

Well, visiting one of my favorite stores down the street I thought I would browse some of the silver. I immediately found two pieces. I was interested in and immediately had a lovely young gentleman blonde with a little mustache come and open one of the wall cabinets and then one of the glass tables. Easy Peezy I was enjoying my experience. I said I will definitely take that piece. I said I'm not quite done shopping yet and started to look around about five minutes later, I was done, but the gentleman who had been helping me was helping someone with a watch so I was waiting until he was done. while waiting for the guy to be done with the lady with the watch I noticed a ring that matched the pendant, you see in the pictures and realize it also matched a pair of earrings. I had there were two very similar rings, both size 10, but in different display holders, but the same cabinet. I went up to the register because the gentleman who helped me originally was still busy and asked to see two rings from two different display trays. He pulled the first set of rings out and said he could only take one tray out at a time which was not a problem. I was surprised when he wanted to go all the way back to the front of the store instead of on the jewelry table right there where the rings are and I said could we please just take the one ring out of one of the displays and that ring so that I could look at both of them I'm only interested in those two rings that's when I met Jennifer Jennifer was on her way to lunch and I really wish now that she had gone on her merry way because she inserted herself in ways that mean I will never walk into the store again. Literally I was not going to be able to compare the two ring. I could look at one ring at a time at the front of the store but separately So I went ahead and said never mind. I will just purchase what I've already decided on and walked back to the original gentleman. He was super nice at this point Jennifer came walking from another part of the store because the gentleman helping said I don't mind showing you the rings ma'am that's when she lost it. She told me that maybe I didn't need to buy something from the store today. The gentleman pursued and continued to help me. I said let's not even bother looking at the rings. Let's just purchase the pendant instead of leaving for her lunch hour. She continued to harass me and follow me to the register. At which point I asked for her name, she gleefully thrust her card at me and said that she was the assistant manager and I said I didn't care if she owned the store the way that she treats customers is not OK. I went ahead and purchased the $78 pendant because it's so well matches a pair of earrings. I already have. It's too bad. I don't have the ring also to match it, but I am never stepping foot in the store again. I would also like to mention Jennifer the assistant manager for a third time said to me maybe I didn't wanna shop at the store she didn't ask me to leave but the threat was clear three different times she says maybe you shouldn't shop here. To be fair I understand being short staffed to be fair. I understand only wanting to take out one display at a time, but not allowing a customer to compare two rings to decide which one they are going to buy is absolutely ridiculous. Super clear that I was only interested in the two size 10 turquoise rings. Unfortunately, they were in separate cases in the same locked cabinet. I'd also like to point out. These were not expensive rain. It's not like we were talking about diamonds and sapphires here we're talking about rings under $200. I'm really hoping Jennifer finds lunch because she's not really very pleasant when she's hungry. A huge shout out to the gentleman who helped me because on three occasions, he literally paused, helping me because Jennifer was telling him maybe I shouldn't be purchasing. I have never in my life had an experience like this.

I originally came in hoping to redesign the set (as it was damaged), but after exploring several options, I realized a full redesign wasn't financially realistic for me at this time. Rather than pushing me toward something outside my budget, Thomas worked with me to find a solution that honored both the sentimental value of my original ring and what I could realistically afford. He repaired my original setting, replaced my stone with a beautiful lab-grown opal, and helped me creatively use inherited family jewelry toward the project. The end result feels deeply personal and absolutely beautiful -- I now have my wedding set back in a way that feels meaningful, unique, and affordable. What really stood out to me was how much personal attention Thomas gave throughout the process. He took time to walk through options, answer questions, and genuinely get to know me and what I was looking for. He's warm, funny, easy to talk to, and the experience felt very much like working with an old-school local family business that truly values relationships with their customers. If you're looking for a jeweler who will take the time to work with you, think creatively, and help you find something that fits both your vision and your budget, I'd absolutely recommend stopping in to Scotts Valley Jewelers!

So I must say this review is so LONG overdue. ( Try over ten years! ) As I celebrate my ten year…read morewedding anniversary AND being a bridal consultant too I can honestly say that my ring still makes my heart flutter! When the big day is over and the cake is eaten and the flowers die there are few precious items that can take you back to your special moment. And with my occupation as a bridal consultant I see amazing rings EVERYDAY of my life. So when I get compliments on my ring it makes me feel so special! When my now husband on the hunt for the perfect engagement ring he knew it had to be a antique piece. I am a lover of vintage clothing as well as antique furniture. So there was no question in my mind that the engagement ring that I would wear for a lifetime would be a antique piece. I gave my husband an idea as to time frame I wanted for the ring. If you are buying a vintage or antique engagement ring it is important to know the era in which you want to focus on. Since with each era there are different little details as well as the stone cuts are different from stone cuts of modern rings. I love the Victorian and Edwardian eras but not not anything 'newer' than the Art Deco Era. My husband went to many stores including Lang Antiques, Dianne's Old And New Estates and a host of others just to name a few. But nothing seemed quite right. He knew that I wanted my dream ring to have a hearts and flower motif on the filigree metal work on the ring. (I know I am that detailed!) But Judy kept my husbands information since he did not find 'The Ring' on his initial visit. Judy went on a buying trip to the East Coast and when she returned she called my husband to say that she may have my ring. My husband went to look at it and it was quite simply the one. Since our magical day ten years ago this ring that has lived a past life continues to see a life with me. And it makes me feel special and beautiful and special every time I put it on. I have taken it recently to Judi Wyant Antiques to have the diamond tightened and reappraised and much to our amazement and delight it appraised for more than what we paid for it. And it was a significant price increase as well. I have noticed that buying a antique or vintage engagement ring has been in vouge lately. I feel that if you are looking for the perfect antique or vintage engagement ring please start your search at Judi Wyant Antiques. Her staff is excellent as well as knowledgeable in the various eras as well as the diamond cuts of the eras. You will not be disappointed to visit such a elegant and well curated store. I have sent many brides to Judi Wyant Antiques who have admired my ring and they too have been nothing but delighted and have come away well informed. Thank you Judi and staff for taking the time to not only educate my husband on the world of antique or vintage wedding rings but finding my dream ring. I cannot thank you enough for helping us find a ring that was just so perfect. It has carried me through ten years and will go on through our lifetime together. Thank you for your passion for what you do as well as your excellent customer service. Jane who also works with you has always been gracious and courteous every time we have ventured into your store! Thank you again!

Too bad all the reviews here are heavily influenced by personal vendettas and some reviewers here don't even discuss the experience of the shop. The most horrible review on here is from someone who tried to illegally use the parking lot and got upset when the employees here told him not to use it; he didn't even walk into the shop! How can you leave such an in-depth review on a shop you didn't even patron?? On the management: Khoshal and Osamah are genuine people who take their business seriously. They are quick witted and always are helpful when trying to find a certain product. And of course they are always willing to work with someone who comes correct. Graffix has everything from your $5, inexpensive get-the-job-done sort of products up to the headiest and most advanced smoking products and glass in the game right now. Do not let these emotionally incensed reviews turn you away from the best smoke shop in Santa Cruz. With the largest selection of glass in Downtown Santa Cruz, along with tons of jewelry, clothing, and other misc. products, you'd be foolish to not stop by the shop. Just make sure you actually come in the shop, and not just use their parking lot and post a huge review bitching about being asked to move :). read more

Absolutely appalling experience. I have genuinely never been treated this aggressively by a business in my life. I was sitting inside my car, with the vehicle running, on my phone when a man came out of this shop and immediately started screaming at me about being in the parking lot. Instead of simply asking me to move--which I would have happily done--he escalated the situation and called me a bitch. Over a parking space. While I was sitting in my car. There is absolutely no excuse for a business owner or employee to speak to someone that way. Screaming obscenities at a woman sitting alone in her vehicle is completely unhinged and unnecessarily intimidating. I wouldn't spend a single dollar here after being treated like that. If this is how you interact with members of your own community over something as insignificant as a parking space, you have no business dealing with the public. One of the nastiest, most hostile interactions I've ever had with a local business. Avoid this place. read more

Let me start off by saying I was greeted upon my entrance at this business not like Pipeline where they are completely rude and unhelpful. By far The best store in Santa Cruz. They have tons upon tons of glass and it just doesn't end... Went in the other day to grab a piece and found everything with ease. The staff was very helpful and knowledgable regarding their products. Sam and Kush, the two guys in the back, were super chill and hooked it up!!! Apparently they do body piercings here too which was great because i got to kill with two birds with one stone. My girlfriend got her belly button pierced and it was done very professionally.

Graffix is the best import shop in Santa Cruz. There are others, but this place is the most fun. It is not your standard operation. All of the prices are negotiable. Remember that. If Khalid or Raz are there, deal with them. They will cut you a good deal. Expect to get at least 30% off of the price listed on the sticker. They also have the best selection of stickers in the county. If you are looking for some artwork to show off to your friends, go here! They are good folks. They are originally village people from Afghanistan. Don't expect them to have a whole lot of typical American business methods. Just expect a good deal. read more

Once I got into the room my piercer was friendly and very thorough. My previous piercing was not even on both sides and he took the time to show me several placements for my second hole to create the look I wanted. He walked me through some breathing exercises to preform to help decrease the pain. Before my visit I checked out the website which included the cost of the piercing ($80) for a second hole. Additionally, the website mentioned walk ins are welcome from Thursday - Sunday. My only complain about this shop was the lack of transparency on cost. Personally, I'm someone who prefers everything to be clearly listed black and white so I can review the information and make informed decisions without feeling pressured. At this shop, you need to ask about the price of each individual piece, which can be a little uncomfortable. I asked for quotes on a few jewelry options, and when I made my selection, I was told the jewelry would cost $30 but it ended up being $28 per piece, which came out to $56 for both ears. There was also a $36 charge for two titanium threadless labret posts (the backing, I believe), which I hadn't anticipated. On top of that, I was charged $10 for saline spray for aftercare, something that wasn't mentioned beforehand. In my head, I was estimating around $150 total, factoring in the $80 listed for the piercing and some variable jewelry cost. So walking out with a $211 bill was a bit of a surprise. I really wish the full breakdown, especially the add ons, was made more transparent either online or displayed clearly in the shop to avoid that kind of sticker shock. With that said, I'm very happy with my piercing and the overall experience. The staff was professional and kind, and the shop was clean and clearly run with care. I plan on coming back for future piercings and recommend it to others.

This yelp review is long overdue- my husband and I have been coming to FU for tattoos from Nick for…read morea long time, and every time walk out not only happy with the art but with the whole experience! All the artists at FU are great people, and it's obvious they all love and respect each other which always makes for great energy in any space. I have 5 or 6 tattoos done by Nick Vargas, and I love each one more than the one he has done before. I was new to tattoos when I first saw Nick, and he is just such a kind, approachable human, and has made each tattoo even more meaningful with the positive experience and memory associated with getting it. I am always so excited to get to sit and chat with Nick for an hour or two. Like I said, the shop is filled with great humans. Get tattooed by Nick, Derek, or Amanda and you will not only get great art, but support great artists and people. Thanks Nick, and the rest of the gang at FU for being so wonderful, we love you!

Great shop! So many talented artists. I've gotten amazing tattoos from both Nick and Derek. Nick…read moredoes nearly all flash (take a look at his work!!) and Derek does both flash and custom.
