They did some…read morework for me a few years ago that was fine, so when I needed the setting on my engagement ring fixed, I came back. He charged well more than I've ever paid for that repair at other jewelers, took something like 6 weeks, and when I got it back he'd built the points so high that the ring was constantly snagging on things. Six months later, I took the ring in for a different repair elsewhere, and the jeweler pointedly asked if I needed the setting fixed, because the points were too high. Now, a few months later, one of the points has come off again and I'm back where I was a year ago, needing a new setting.

I had an awful experience calling to ask about jewellery repair. I had two rings in need of repair,…read moreone purchased at People's jewellers and one old family heirloom. I think the name of the woman I spoke with was Monica. As soon as she heard I had a ring from People's, all she would tell me is that I had to go there to have it repaired. I told her that I would rather pay more to have it fixed locally because People's sends it out East. I kept trying to mention my family ring (because I absolutely would NOT send that anywhere in case it got lost) but she refused to listen and just kept saying, "go back to People's!". I literally almost cried because I'm so attached to that ring and it breaking was already so stressful. Anyways, I went to Independent Goldsmith, paid twice what I would have at People's in order to keep it local, and received excellent service. I would not recommend LL Private Jewellers at all, absolute crap service.

When looking for a jeweller to resize my (brand new!) custom engagement ring (bought online, didn't…read moreknow my size) I was initially scared and overwhelmed - until I talked to Monika! I had quotes from 2 jewellers that were much higher and that included up to 10 days in wait times. When I called LL (open til 9pm! so convenient for us 9-5ers!) they said to come right in, and as soon as I found the building (it's that old one on Granville you always pass but never noticed) they buzzed me in to their little studio. They were real, honest and friendly during the consult, quoted me MUCH less than the others and said they'd have it 2 days later! I went to pick up my ring today and it fits perfectly, I realized the reviews were all true, they made me feel comfortable and extremely satisfied with the end result. I'll definitely recommend their no-nonsense, amazing work to my friends and go back to them if I need anything else!

For our tenth wedding anniversary, it was time for a ring upgrade. Coming from California, where we…read morehad been loyal customers to a single jeweller for years, it was time to find someone new in our new forever home. It started with some simple repairs, sort of a test. I gave them a broken necklace and an heirloom bracelet in need of repair. They were quick, communicative, and did quality work, so we moved forward with my custom rings. The process of designing my dream set was better than I hoped for! I made an appointment with Linda, the daughter of the family business, and omg I ADORE her! Every design detail and curveball I threw her way she met with a "yes, and!" Euroshank? Excellent choice. Mixed metals in 14k instead of the more expensive 18k? We love durability! Lab diamond and moissanite? We're not snobs, bring on the double-refractive sparkle! It all started with choosing my center stone. Linda guided me through their supplier's inventory in a super personal process and gave me plenty of time to choose "the one". Then, I said goodbye to my current 5-year anniversary band so the stones could be integrated. Once everything was measured, it was inputted in their system for a design render. They got the engagement ring spot-on on the first try, completely understanding my vision! We went through maybe 5 different versions of bands to perfectly complement it, tweaking to my description until it was perfect. Then, they let me try the wax model and see my diamond, which was a surprisingly emotional experience. Then, with my written approval, it was time to build it. There was a tiny hiccup in sourcing the marquise-shaped moissanite stones, so they offered lab diamonds at no additional cost. But I was happy to wait the short two weeks to have them custom cut. (They were so sweet to avoid inconveniencing me and were on TOP of the communication this whole time! Linda was happy to text quick updates, which was my preference over email.) Less than 3 months after my initial appointment, my dream rings were on my finger. I cannot stop staring at them, they are so exquisite! Anthony, Linda's brother, facilitated the handoff, and he is a delightful young man with the hands of a craftsman. He removed the remaining stone from my old ring with tremendous care, which I took home for a future project. Plus he gave me very fair credit on my bill for the gold in the old setting (I didn't want it). I told them, and I meant it, that they have a customer for life. Linda told me to come by for free cleaning and inspections any time, and I will certainly take them up on that and sing their praises to anyone who asks. P.S. they are very good about asking to validate your parking lol

His knowledge and suggestions were very helpful in shaping the design ideas I had into the perfect ring. After working with him over a number of weeks and now seeing the finished product exceed my (high) expectations, I could not be happier with the process and the beautiful, one of a kind ring now on the hand of my fiancee. Bottom line: Dustin creates amazing custom made pieces of jewellery. He's very easy to work with and has a great ability to shape loose design ideas into working concepts that really hit the look and feel of what you're trying to accomplish with the piece.

Dustin is awesome to work with because he has the ability to listen to what you want and also add…read morehis own artistic and technical opinion. He helped me define a ring design (based on an engraving from Jules Verne's novel From the Earth to the Moon) and helped my wife design her very different and more abstract sapphire studded ring. He used our gold (old french coins) and he helped us determine the purity in order to get it refined to 24k and then alloyed to white gold as we wanted. He uses a wax carving and casting technique and dental tools for engravings so it is definitely hand made and unique but also very cool. Price was reasonable and quality exceeded expectations. If you want something that is custom made and not machined to order overseas, but still have a similar price, you should definitely try working with Dustin.

As soon as we entered, we went directly to the ear-piercing section to choose earrings. The employee assigned to do the piercing stood there without even acknowledging us or offering any assistance. When I informed her that I had an appointment, she told me I was exactly "6 minutes and 24 seconds late" and therefore she would not perform the piercing. I was shocked by how rigid and dismissive this was. There was absolutely no attempt to accommodate us, show understanding, or provide any customer service whatsoever. Refusing service over a delay of just a few minutes, especially after a customer has made the effort to come in for a booked appointment, is unreasonable and incredibly frustrating. The lack of professionalism, empathy, and basic courtesy left a very negative impression. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

I had a fabulous time at the Mejuri Piercing Studio! Thank you, Sarah, for your spectacular service…read more- from your patience as my friends and I chose our earrings, to your efficiency in getting us pierced, to your care in explaining the aftercare process. The three of us came in thinking we'd get one piercing each, and walked out with double the amount in the span of an hour! BOOKING: The process was quick and easy on the Mejuri website. No deposit is required, so you can rest easy if you do change your mind. Moreover, if you sign up for Mejuri's SMS+Email program, you can get 10% off towards your jewelry. Once you get to the studio, you can skip the line by letting them know about your appointment. STORE/STUDIO: Sleek, spacious, and sophisticated! There is a wide offering of jewelry to choose from, whether you're looking for dainty, more delicate pieces, or something with a bit more pop. The Piercing Studio is in a back room for privacy. SELECTION: The jewelry is more limited for in-store piercings, but they are all 14k white or yellow gold with threadless flat back titanium studs. You can choose from 8 types of piercings in the lobe and cartilage areas. (Note that for lobe piercings, healing will take at least 3 months, whereas for cartilage piercings, it is at least 6 months.) Prices currently range from $85 to $455. No matter how many piercings you get, the service fee will be $25 for your session (including a free check-up and post-downsizing) so you may find yourself easily tempted to get more like we did. PIERCING: If you're going with friends, I would recommend back-to-back sessions, so you can maximize your visit as the piercing itself is quite quick. We had ample time to select our jewelry and didn't feel rushed during our hour together. Sarah marked our ears to show where the jewelry would go and let us hold them up against our ears again to get an idea of placement. My only issue was that my helix piercing was slightly covered by my ear fold afterwards, though I plan to get a hoop later so I am not too fussed about it. The entire process was very efficient and sanitary, with gloves and sterilized, single-use equipment. Sarah also provided aftercare instructions, including purchasing Bactine and running warm water over our piercings during showers. Payment was done by tablet in the Piercing Studio, so there was no need to line up in the store which I appreciated.  Overall, I really enjoyed the whole experience and can fully understand why Mejuri is as popular as it is. I am already itching to go back for more piercings, but for now, these ears need some proper rest and recovery.
