A very solid five (plus) star experience; I am posting to share my appreciation for the excellent service we received at Hope Diamonds & Company. After deciding to part with mom's jewelry collection, which no one in the family wanted.   We found Hope Diamonds on Yelp and could not be happier with the experience. We were taken care of by Jimmy and truly appreciated the time he took to evaluate each piece, clearly explaining both the positives and negatives of every item. Since we had checked the spot prices for gold and silver beforehand, we felt the offers we received for each piece was very fair, accurately reflecting either the melt or resale value of our items. Hope Diamonds & Company will be at the top of our list for any future jewelry needs. read more

Jimmy was the diamond expert who stood out during my search for a specific type of diamond. I found him to be honest, direct and knowledgeable. I ended up purchasing a custom ring designed by him that exceeded my expectations. read more

I'm so grateful to have met Bill and Jimmy with Hope Diamonds & Co. to create the custom design ring I've been wanting for quite some time now. I took in three rings with the hope of taking all of the diamonds and putting them into one ring. These three rings were all part of my wedding set from my late husband that I wanted to simplify and continue to wear comfortably in honor of him and our marriage. Bill gave me an estimate in no time and was incredibly kind. Jimmy's work was done exactly as I had envisioned and completed before the time estimate he gave me. The cost was nearly half of what I was quoted with another jeweler. I couldn't have asked for a more seamless experience. Needless to say, they brought this dream to life for me and I will continue to recommend them for years to come. read more

We were very pleased with our recent transaction. My wife had a large stone set in a custom setting. Based on our positive experience, we can recommend Hope Diamonds with confidence! read more

Jimmy at Hope Diamond went above and beyond to source the most beautiful natural diamond. He designed a custom classic setting that perfectly complimented the solitaire. I will definitely work with Hope for future custom pieces. Thanks Jimmy-I absolutely love my ring! It's perfect! read more

They did an amazing job repairing my wife's ring. Highly recommended. Very friendly and quick turnaround.

My (now!!) fiancé and I went in, and we were greeted by Jimmy, who was personable, patient, and knowledgeable. We initially stopped in for an appraisal of a few pieces and lightly searching for a ring for me, and I tried on a few rings and ended up falling in love with my ring. Jimmy walked us through many options, gave professional insight, and was able to use some trade in value to make it an easy choice. Now, not too long later, we are engaged and I have much to be happy about! read more

Fantastic service! Made my ring look new again. They cleaned and set a new diamond, great price, helpful with making final decision

We worked with Jimmy to locate our special stone for our engagement ring. He took the time to walk us through an understanding of what makes a great stone and emailed us several options including videos of the diamonds. We went back to meet him and he took great care of us and showed so much care and patience. We bought our GIA CERTIFIED stone from him and he even gave us an appraisal for our insurance weeks after the sale. I would only buy from Jimmy and Hope Diamonds and Co in the future. We are thrilled with our experience. read more

I was looking for a vintage Rolex that my husband has had his eye on for a couple of years now. I was having trouble locating it in orange county. I contacted Jimmy and he got back to me right away. He had found the watch and beat any of the prices I had previously gotten. Not only was it in prestine condition, but it had all the original documents, price tag, and box. He then went a step further and got it serviced by an official rolex dealer and had it delivered all in time to surprise my husband for Christmas. I was super nervous about buying such a big ticket item but Jimmy was so professional and knew what he was talking about, it put me at ease. Jimmy, thank you for making it such a memorable Christmas. I couldn't have done it without you. read more

Hey Yelp why did you remove my review. I was at this location hello. If you don't believe me. Call the business and ask them yourself. This is unbelievable that Yelp removes reviews from other Yelpers that been at a location. Hello I follow you're rules Yelp. Maybe you Yelp should focus on people who slender other places of businesses that they have not been there. Here is my email from Yelp and the original review. I can't believe this. This is not cool. I'm so mad at Yelp. First off I'am a customer. I will keep putting this up. Oh by the way. There's another review of a person. That never been at the location reviewing her experience from her husband same as mine. Are you discriminating me because I'm a mom. I wanted to feed my son. I deserve to show my appreciation for this business. I wanted to tell a story about MY EXPERIENCE. Second I have freedom of speech. Don't infringe it either. MAY 01, 2018 | 11:44AM PDT Hi, I'm reaching out to let you know that our moderators removed your review, photos, and video of Hope Diamonds & Co because it wasn't clear that your review described your firsthand experience as a customer of Hope Diamonds & Co. We typically remove reviews that don't focus on the reviewer's firsthand experiences as a customer of the business (such as secondhand experiences, observations from the perspective of a non-customer, or complaints about the business's practices or politics). To learn more, check out our Content Guidelines (https://www.yelp.com/guidelines). Removed Content: My family and I were shopping at the mall. I was at the family lounge with my son. My Hubby came in asking me to take off my wedding ring. So he takes off with it. Comes back later on while I was still in the family lounge. He said we're coming back tomorrow. He let me know that he has a present for me. He showed me a picture on his phone. I literally started crying. He upgraded the diamond on my wedding ring. He told me how much he paid for it. Since I have jewelry in my background. He mentioned it to the jeweler. He give him a good deal. The guy give him exceptional customer service. My newly revamped ring would be ready the next day. So the next day we went back. I was so surprised by a lot of shine of the diamond. I kind of feel guilty he wasn't making the money he wanted at the time. I know that he has the smaller diamond and he can make some money off of it. So I'm here to give this place a five star review. How happy I'am with my new revamped wedding ring. They treated my Hubby very well. I just want to say to them. Thank you all so much. I will buy stuff from you whenever I'm in the desert. Forever customer. Thank you so much.

We had the absolute best experience at Hope Diamonds shopping for my engagement ring. We started here first and my fiance wanted to check out the other stores near by before committing. While at the other locations we honestly just could not wait to get back to Hope Diamonds. The service was absolutely amazing! Jimmy was so patient with us and did excellent listening to what we were looking for and only showing us rings in our budget. The quality of the diamonds in the set we choose are absolutely gorgeous! And the price we paid for both the ring and the wedding band was literally half or more then half of just the ring alone at the other stores. We will definitely be recommending Hope Diamonds to everyone and will absolutely be going back again! Thank you again Jimmy! read more

Jimmy and staff have been ABSOLUTELY amazing overall. My fiancé proposed to me with a beautiful custom ring from this location. I was always so nervous at the thought of him surprising me with a ring because we are so different with our tastes lol but Jimmy helped him completely shock me! The ring is everything I could have ever imagined. He helped my fiancé pick out a beautiful custom diamond and created a dazzling ring around it. Getting it resized and appraised was extremely simple and quick as well. We look forward to buying our wedding bands and more jewelry here. We will never go anywhere else again! read more

Jimmy was great! Helped us design the wedding ring she wanted. Was very patient and let us make our own decision. Very happy!

There is no other jewelry store that competes! I drive from Huntington Beach just to get my jewelry from Jimmy! After already spending $13,000 thus far and he doing my brothers engagement ring has gained him my respect. Don't buy your jewelry from lame stores like Kay or Jared that will give you low quality diamonds. You know when you find that right guy that is the hook up and you keep him in your pocket that's him! I'm glad he put up with my perfectionist to this custom ring he made me as well. This ring competes to any $50,000 Tiffany's yellow diamond ring! See for yourself the picture and ring tells the whole story! read more

I searched for months for the perfect diamond to propose to my girlfriend of 4 years with. I went from jeweler to jeweler, store to store, and was never fully satisfied- until I stepped into Hope Diamonds & Co. I was treated with respect and Jimmy was just as excited to help me on this journey as I was to begin it.

I was introduced to Hope Diamonds & Co around 2012 at their Moreno Valley location through my aunt and uncle so I was thrilled when they opened up a location in Palm Desert around 2015. Jimmy and his family are the BEST in this industry, hands down. After the numerous pieces he has designed and built for my mother, aunts, cousins, and most recently, my engagement ring, I can say, without hesitation, that there is no other place you should be purchasing jewelry from. Their attention to detail is unmatched, and I can promise you that you will not regret doing business with them! read more

We vacation in Palm Desert a lot, and won some money at the casino... so I wanted to treat myself to a pre owned Rolex... shopped up and down El Paseo and could not find any good deals. I checked on Yelp and found my way to Hope Diamonds and Jimmy the owner was so nice and accommodating. I got a great deal on this Men's Datejust 2 with a diamond bezel! We came back a month later to upgrade my lady's ring ... thank you !! read more

All I can say is wow. My Mom passed and left me her diamond engagement ring. I brought it to a few places and they all quoted me ridiculously low. I knew it was bigger that what they told me and I knew it was worth way more than I was quoted. I decided to find a certified gemologist who specializes in diamonds. I went and saw Jimmy at Hope diamonds. He gave me almost 5 times more for just for the diamond than I was quoted at the other "fancy" jewelry stores for the whole ring. I was more than pleased. I kept the beautiful setting for sentimental reasons and together we picked out a beautiful blue sapphire to go in the setting. I went to the store not dressed up at all and unlike the other stores, he did not judge my worth by my appearance. He treated me with respect just like he would someone dressed to the nines dripping in diamonds. He offers me a fair deal and went above and beyond. If you have jewelry to sell, don't waste your time going to other places. Hope diamonds is the way to go. They also sell beautiful jewelry. read more

Giovanni is honest and educated in his craft. Excellent customer service with vast knowledge. Highly recommend

My wife and I were shopping in the mall for a 15 year Anniversary Ring.... we looked at 4-5 of the jewelry shops in the mall. None of those stores we looked at had anything unique or different; as I wanted this ring to be full of diamonds and I knew it would grab us when we found it. We liked the Vera Wang collection at Zales, but it's not the diamonds your paying for at that point your paying for the name. Then we walked into Hope Diamond Co, and I was a little taken back at the large selection of beautiful rings and jewelry! I met Jimmy immediately and I told him we were looking for something different and that we would know it when we found it... Jimmy was a no-pushy sales person and showed us about 6-8 rings that we had an interest in. The rings were Gorgeous' and we would have been lucky to have bought any one of those rings... but then we found it, and I knew it was the ring for my wife. She tried it on and I fell in love with her all over again. She light up with excitement and I could feel the energy of the moment. Then we talked pricing and I was ecstatic to see how much I was saving vs. The other stores in the mall. Jimmy was extremely knowledgeable, patient and friendly. The perfect type of person for the position... Turns out Jimmy is the owner and he' really knows his Jewelry !!! --- I'll be back one day to buy another Diamond ring for my wife when the next big event hits, and until then I'll tell all my friends and family that come to Palm Springs to call Jimmy. Thank You for making our Anniversary so memorable and special ! - Your 5 Stars _ Jimmy. read more

One of the highest caliber of jewelers in the desert!! My friend and I came to Jimmy to look for an engagement ring, he was extremely attentive and never pressured us during the process. I cannot speak highly enough of his integrity, honesty, and caring nature. Jimmy created the dream engagement ring for my friend, it was of the highest quality and at an extremely reasonable price. Thank you so much!! read more
