Thom Duma is a gem in the Mahoning Valley…read more My family recently had a big milestone in our family business, and we decided to mark the occasion with some timepieces. I met with Santino, and he took the time to learn about our tastes and let us try on several different Rolex models. When we decided what we liked, he set realistic timeframes and let us know he would call us when they became available. We got the call sooner than expected. When we picked up the watches, Santino made the whole afternoon an experience. This level of personalization doesn't happen in the big chain stores, you need to trust your local mom & pop jeweler with really going above and beyond. We have a big wedding anniversary coming up soon, and I know Thom Duma will put the same level of care for this day as well.

A diamond that has been a part of our family since the late 1930s became a strangely discolored…read moreyellow color. Took it to my local jeweler who cleaned it and seemed puzzled that it didn't get rid of the yellow. He tried to tell me diamonds can't get discolored and implied it was always that way. But it hadn't always been that way. I searched for a gemologist to look at it to see what could have happened to cause the discoloration and was led to Thom Dumas Fine Jewelry. After looking at the stone in its mounting it was taken in the back and cleaned while I waited. It came back looking clear again and as good as new! I was so thrilled! Everyone there was so pleasant and I was sent off with a wish of "Merry Christmas" and there was no charge. I am a happy girl! Thank you so much!! Feliz Navidad! :)

My husband (boyfriend at the time) went here to custom build the ring he used for our engagement…read moreand it was amazing! He (sneakily) got a picture of a ring I adored from a friend of mine and brought it in here (I promise I knew nothing about it!). Barba Fine Jewelers did an absolutely amazing job, and even educated him on how to buy a ring properly. The first two times he went in, he was shown various kinds of diamonds and quality so he would know how to shop around if he wanted to. Being the kind of guy he is, he shopped around and realized how many jewelers were trying to rip him off. BFJ went out of their way to build the ring beautifully and at a very good value. It was so good we bought my wedding band as well as my husband's wedding ring there, too. When I went in to buy the wedding band Bill, the owner even taught me a few things I didn't know about taking care of a ring (like how being in a pool with your ring makes the diamonds more likely to fall off). I cannot emphasize how patient and wonderful they were with my now husband! He knew nothing about rings before he went here (Example: he didn't know he was supposed to buy a band, too. lol) and by the time he left he was confident knowing he got a great value.

My husband and I came in for some Black Friday Shopping with the intention of looking for a pair of…read moresolitaire diamond earrings for myself. We had been to Kays, JB Robinson, and even Thom Duma (we won't go to Zales, we had an absolutely horrendous experience with my engagement ring there) before we came here to look. I shopped with Zach's help and he was such a great salesman! I was very anxious and indecisive and he remained so patient and calm, it really helped through the whole experience. My husband and I even felt comfortable enough to ask him about redesigning my engagement ring and he showed us options that fit our budget and what I've wanted for years! So we ended up being able to purchase my diamond earrings AND redesign my ring all for a price we could afford. I'll update this review once I've received my ring back from repair but for now they are an absolutely stellar jewelry store in my opinion!

Yes this past August 2018 I purchased a pair of earrings for my girlfriend...they were $400.00 30…read moredays later they broke ...I purchased a $50.00 insurance plan when I bought the item...I returned to the store and asked to exchange them but the supervisor refused .. even though on the back of my receipt it says 30 DAY MONEY BACK GUARNTEE AND 90 DAY EXCHANGE I WENT BACK WITH BROKEN EARRINGS OCT.

Stopped at Second Chances Antique Gallery in Warren to see what interesting things I could find…read more From the outside it Second Chances doesn't look like much, but once you get inside it is impressive; there are 3 rooms of a wide variety of stuff. Lots of variety, collectibles, antiques, instruments, toys, and just about anything you could be looking for. Talking to the owner I found out that he had recently bought out the previous owner and was getting things organized and cleaned up. I was impressed with the wooden masks and assorted carvings they had; most were very high quality and vintage. The back room has a wide variety of items, from the usual flea market trinkets to really nice items. I found a really cool walking stick with a hatchet head, it was unpriced and the owner was great about negotiating a fair price. Overall I was very impressed with the variety and selection at Second Chance, well worth the drive. The new owner was very friendly and willing to deal. If you are looking for something vintage or antique go and check them out.
