I went in to get two watches resized and my ring prongs tightened and was in/out within 30 min! Price was VERY reasonable and way better than typical jeweler. Employees were very kind and 110% satisfied what I needed to get done! Will be back in future! read more

Lavdas Jewelers - I love my 11.5 carat engagement ring ! Thank you Nick - Jewelry Near Me - Warren, Michigan

I would give 100 stars if I could! The service and quality can't be beat. They stand behind their product for the life of the product. Their cost is better than their competitors. Our 11 year old son has wanted a gold chain with a cross for a long time. This year he asked if we would consider getting him one instead of a birthday party with his friends. We agreed. We took him to Lavdas Jewelers which is where we bought our wedding rings 20 years ago and a few pieces of jewelry through the years. We hadn't been in since March 2020 before the lockdown to repair my ring. But yet we were greeted like family by Nick, the owner. He and Tom spent over an hour with Andrew picking out the perfect chain and charm. Andrew felt very special. Nick also cleaned and checked my jewelry and even repaired my ring for no cost. Truly exceptional service. And at a fantastic price too! read more

Nick and staff are the absolute best! Amazing quality and friendly! I'll choose lavdas forever

My husband and I will celebrate our 50 year Anniversary in June and we were looking for a Anniversary band. The staff at Lavdas were so nice and welcoming to me. After looking at tray after tray of rings I finally made a choice. The owner Nick gave me a great price and even sized my ring while I waited! I highly recommend Lavdas Jewelers! read more

I visited the store Jan. 2 with my daughter. She was trying to get the value for an engagement ring that she has. Sadly, she was trying to get rid of the ring because the relationship ended. My daughter was persistent about going into the store because it's local. I told her that I prefer not to patronize any of the Lavdas family businesses. And guess what...they proved me right! This young woman goes into the store to sell a ring that is tied to hurt and disappointment and a man comes out who I'm 99% sure was the owner and yells across the store, "Did you get this from one of those mall stores?" My daughter was mortified and hurt all at the same time. And if she did get it from a mall store...So what! Does that make her less than ?! She replies with tears in her eyes, "No I didn't." He then says to her, "To get the best bang for your buck, you might want to sell it on eBay or something." This guy literally had the ring for not even 5 minutes. He gave no attention to the ring that he treated like a bubble gum machine ring. Needless to say they are the worse. Horrific customer service. And I had heard this from many people. Although, it's been said if you're dropping thousands you'll receive top notch service! Hum....Well this is why I buy from Diamond Jim's in Madison Heights! Great family business. You can come into the store to shop with your pj's on and they treat everyone the same! Which is why they will continue to get my business. Lavdas needs to understand any and everyone that walks through their doors is a potential customer. My daughter could have turned right around and purchased her future engagement ring from Lavdas. Arrogance equates to stupidity. To lose 1 customer is too much in our current economy. No one has to buy jewelry. It's not a necessity! In the end, Diamond Jims took time to clean and grade the ring and gave her several options! Thank you Diamond Jims for your years of service in the community and for treating your customers as humans. read more

They don't even deserve one star but it won't allow zero stars. My mother's widower took her wedding ring for an appraisal as part of settling her trust. When I reviewed the document, it was almost entirely inaccurate! When I took it in to question it, their only solution was to CHARGE ME for a new appraisal. The original is so off that I have to wonder just what piece they were looking at. read more

Best damnnnn jeweler in town! To know Nick is to know him. He always gives you more then you expect to leave with. Reputable, honest and to the point! Love his place and his staff!! Cant wait to see them again next year!! read more

Lavdas Jewelers - Jewelry Near Me - Warren, Michigan

Wow, what a "gem" this place is! We have been dealing with Nick Lavdas for several years. My husband bought me a lot of jewelry from this store when we were dating. All beautiful pieces! He bought my engagement/wedding ring there also and 28 years later I am still "dazzled" by how gorgeous it is. I have referred people to Nick because of the quality service and product and pricing Nick offers. He's the best!!! read more

Lavdas, Nick specifically, was recommended to my then boyfriend and I 22 years ago. Nick and my husband designed my engagement ring from scratch, a true original along with my wedding band. Nick went over everything with him...diamonds and quality/ratings, the best metals for engravings...my ring is in a platinum setting with engraving all the way around it. Absolutely stunning! Now, 22 years later and it is STILL stunning! Last week I stopped in to see about upgrading my center stone and had the pleasure of meeting and working with his wonderful wife too. I was given multiple options, no pressure whatsoever. The diamond I chose was the one Nick recommended...1-because I loved it and 2 because I trusted him when he said it would fit perfectly in the setting I have. I picked it up today and it EXCEEDED my expectations, which were already pretty high because that's the way they roll. I upgraded from my original diamond, he stood by the original guarantee and appraisal...no surprise there. I did not think it was possible to love my ring more than I did before, but I do! And I felt that they were just as excited as I was! And as an extra bonus it was awesome to deal with an owner who obviously loves what he does and takes pride in his work and inventory. I couldn't possibly be happier than I am with my ring and his work. read more

My Fiancé purchased my ring from Lavdas Jewelers. They did an incredible job of making the photos of my dream ring come true and exceed my expectations. We live in California and Nick was so amazing working with my man every step of the way. I will have to have him write a review to describe the process of an out of state purchase. Nick Lavdas you have outdone yourself and we can't thank you enough. read more

So helpful and kind! I went engagement ring shopping here and they taught all about diamonds and what to look for!

Thanks for all the help with creating a simple ruby necklace for my daughters 18th birthday. It turned out perfect and she loves it!

My husband an I have been selling some of our gold. Herman's Creations has been giving us the highest prices to date. I recently visited Lavda's on 12 mile and Ryan. I had 2 small 18K gold metals to sell and 1 small 14k gold cross (they offered me $100.00), so next I visited Herman's Creations and ask for a quote on the same jewelry. I didn't tell them I was previously at Lavda's. $228.00 was there offer, and I accepted. I told them that Lavda's was under offering me by $128.00! The sad part is, is that we have been buying our jewelry from Lavda's for over 3 years now and I trusted them (I guess I was wrong to put my trust in Nic Lavda and his staff). Thanks again Herman's!!! read more

My fiancé just proposed and bought the ring from here and it is GORGEOUS! Very pleased

I would not recommend Lavdas to anyone and would give them zero stars if it was possible. We've had nothing but problems with my ring since the day my fiance' proposed and Nick has been nothing short of difficult to work with. For starters, one of the prongs broke off of my ring within the first 2 hours of wearing it. We were out of town and there was no way to get it fixed until we returned. No one wants to leave their ring in the box the day they get engaged, but I was forced to in order to ensure that the diamond didn't fall out. We took the ring back to Nick upon returning and he 'helped us out' by redoing the prong and building up the other three to ensure the diamond was secure. We also raised concerns at this this time that the stone wasn't centered within the halo setting. Nick assured us that he used a caliper to place the diamond and it was perfect. We were still not happy with the placement and took the ring to a very reputable local jeweler to have a look. To our surprise, they told us that there were PORES (actual holes which they showed us) in the prongs and this results from placing solder on top of existing solder. Nick failed to tell us that while he was building up the prongs (again, 'to help us out'), he was actually creating tiny pores. We also learned that Nick sold us a 1/2 carat halo setting for a 1 carat stone. For this reason, the diamond sits too high in the setting and therefore needs extra support on the prongs to keep it secure. Our new local jeweler told us this is similar to squeezing a size 8 foot in a size 6 shoe. We've brought these concerns to Nick and he's done nothing but deny our claims saying that he has to see the ring to believe it. He also went so far to say that 'jewelers will tell you anything to make a buck'. Looks like that's exactly what he was doing when he sold my fiance' a halo setting that was too small for the diamond. He also said there's not much difference between the halo needed for 1/2 carat diamond or a 3/4 carat diamond. Too bad he sold us a 1 carat diamond and there is a big difference! I'm now going on two weeks without my ring as the local jeweler fixes all of Nicks mistakes. Nick is nothing but difficult to work with and I'll never buy anything from this store again. Find another jeweler if you want to save yourself the hassle! read more

Nick and his staff are amazing!! I am really surprised to hear bad reviews. I have been going there for years and would never dream of going elsewhere. All the people we send there also say how wonderful their experience was. My engagement and wedding band as well as my husbands band was purchased there are they are one of a kind and just stunning. I have people stop me daily to comment on it. If you want really beautiful jewelry at amazing prices this is where you should go! read more

Bought my wedding ring from them and got a great price and god service. The owner is Nick and he knows his stuff. Also bought some bracelets and watches from them as well. Very pleasant and good looking staff. read more

Nick and his staff went out of their way to assist me with the designing of a rather difficult ring. They stuck with it until I received a ring that I just love. I've been doing business with Nick for years and my parents did business with him for many years before that. I would recommend Lavdas Jewelers to anyone with confidence they will be completely happy with their visit. read more

I've purchased items here before and never had this type of experience before. They buzzed me in and no one spoke to me and there was only one other customer. Then finally a very nonchalant man asks if I need help. Really? I told him my necklace needed checking because a diamond was sticking out. He checked said it's fine. I asked him to clean it. He took it to the back came back a minute later with the charm and necklace. Of course it wasn't clean. Then I heard the owner tell the customer he was with that he's had to work for everything he has instead of some people and then they all turned and looked at me after I'm assuming he focused on me when He said that. I was actually there to purchase my fiancé's wedding band now they've lost a repeating customers business forever. By the way I'm black and work everyday for all I have. What an asshole. read more

Lavdas is the worst ! Nick is the last person you should trust! Just like other reviews, I thought my ring was beautiful and received many compliments. Little did I know, After spending over 10 grand with him he wanted to charge me for a cleaning and when I took my ring somewhere else they pointed out a crack in the ring! Hes so nice when you first walk in but once he has the money he treats you like dirt! Im sure all his rings are damaged from the start so that you come back for repairs!! He should be ashamed of himself! I agree with others, he doesnt deserve a single star. GO TO LUCIDO !!!! Not Nick SCAMDA! read more

My fiance bought my engagement ring from Lavda's from Nick... They were amazing to him! We recently went back and bought our wedding bands... they gave us an amazing deal since we were repeat customers. They have a great selection and their staff is extremely helpful and not pushy at all. I would absolutely recommend them!! read more

I brought my engagement ring here and had the bands done, also purchased my husbands ring and had his watch engraved all around the same time. The custom work they did on my ring was horrible, I can't believe that an artist would do work like this and say "I'm very happy with my work". When I had my husbands watch engraved it was engraved wrong and after a few weeks my husbands realized that he was allergic to the wedding band and could not wear it (they were no help at all). NOW 5 months later I had a diamond fall out and they said, "It does not fall under their diamond guarantee because it was from wear and tear". Give me a break! I could see with my bare eyes from the very beginning that the bands are uneven, very poor work. I can't believe I spent a bunch of money at this place. I will never go in there again and will be getting my ring done where I should have got it done in the first place...Elements in Royal Oak. read more

Went here to buy a birthday gift for my boyfriend. Staff was super polite and owner really worked with me and my budget! Will definitely be a return customer. read more

Like many other people have said, this plAce doesn't even deserve a star. Nick Lavda should feel ashamed and embarrassed to be running a business like this. My fiancé got my engagement ring from here and we've had nothing but problems with it. I've only had it for 3 months and it's already been in for repairs 4 times. Stones fall out left and right. One time I drove there to pick up the ring only to find out it wasn't ready when they said it would be. I left the store and drove all the way home (over 30 minutes) just for them to call and say it was ready the whole time it was just misplaced. I've had my ring appraised by two separated and reputable jewelers (niether of which had anything to gain by appraising the ring) who both said there were crooked stones in the halo and that they would trade it in as soon as possible. My fiancé called Nick and told him what they said and Nick said "come on in and trade it in for something, we want you to be happy." Then when we got there Nicks response was "I challenge whoever said that to you to call me and say that to my face! There is nothing wrong with this ring!" I came into the store with a serious concern and nick made the problem about himself. He's extremely unprofessional and once he has your money he doesn't care about you. I would do anything to never set foot in Lavdas again, but in order to keep my warranty valid I have to go every 4 months for a cleaning. And we all know I will need my warranty because the ring falls apart every time I move my hand. So a giant thank you to Nick lavda for making what is supposed to be the most special time in my life, a giant headache that makes me Sick to my stomach everytime I think about it! read more

I've been going here off and on for 5 years and Nick has been very professional. I have compared prices on some items from nearby jewelry stores and he's been able to beat them. Nick always gives me a better deal. read more

I thought my wedding set was beautiful and people complemented me on it often. However, I had no idea that they had sold us a ring with a fracture in the diamond!!!! After my divorce I brought it back to them to see if they would buy it back and they didn't want anything to do with it. I went to another jeweler and they told me that the diamond had a fracture in it!!! I would never send anyone to this place and if you think your ring is beautiful you might want to take a better look. I have to give one star in order to leave this review but they really don't even get that from me....they shouldn't even be in business. read more

I went to Lavadas Jewelers this morning to have a clasp replaced on my diamond necklace my husband bought me while we were in St Maarten for Christmas. I was informed by Dana that the price to replace the clasp would be $65 and it would take a week to have it fixed. When I hesitated, she said they could have it back Monday after 5pm would that be better. I said ok. I never thought it would cost $65 to just replace the clasp. After leaving it with Dana, I called my husband and he agreed with me that the price seemed unreasonable. I asked him to call Lavadas and let them know we would pick up my necklace and take it elsewhere. When he called up there he was informed that they could do the clasp for $48 and it would be completed today. To me this does not make sense, when I physically go into the jewelry store and am quote $65 and it will take a week and he calls on the phone and is told $48 and it would be done today? Absolutely, crazy. I told him this seems very shady to me tell them we will pick it up and take it elsewhere. But amazingly enough as I was calling around to the other jewelers that I know, which I should have taken it to the prices ranged anywhere from $30-$40 but could take anywhere from a day to two weeks. I missed a call from Dana, who left me a message saying my necklace was ready to be picked up, not even 45 minutes after I had dropped it off. Please do not get me wrong, Dana did seem like a very nice young girl but the business aspect of this company is completely shady and I would never recommend them to anyone. The only reason why I went there was because it was closer to our home. Never again.... read more

I wish i didnt have to give a star. My boyfriend purchased my engagement ring here. After i received it the main diamond was slightly crooked so we took it back and he tried to fix it but it was still slightly crooked so we again took it back finally he made it right then a week later a stone fell off so we had to take it back again. I swear the first month we bought this ring i had it for maybe a week. Now a year and a half later we took this ring back to see if he would buy it back because we were doing really bad and needed money. My boyfriend waited in the store for about 20 mins untill nik comes out to pass him up for some kids who just walked in because they had like 16,0000 dollars worth of jewlery. The lady that works there had to pull nik aside just to get him to come over and assist him. He then said i cant buy this. We payed 2,600 for it and it retailed for 3,900 and he wouldnt give us a penny. Also our paper work said we had a 18k gold band and it was actully 14k. After all we have been through and this is what he does. He said go home and sell it on ebay. We also found out the diamond quality was not right. He basically sold us a cheap diamond and even on paper it was wrong. I had it appraised somewhere else and they said this is not the right at all. I wish I had money because I would have gotten a lawyer. Nik is a money hungy man who wont give you the time of day unless your speding a lot of money and to nik 2,600 is nothing. I went to a couple of jewlerys and everyone sad of lavdas riped you off. i have 2 kids and cant make ends meet. I was really hoping for even 900 dollars. he wouldnt offer us nothing. I have lots of family who went here since im italian i have a big family. He lost a good amount of people. Dont go here please i dont want to see anyone else get riped off! Im seriously sick over this thanks a lot nik. read more
