I had a deeply disappointing experience with McCoy Jewelers that I feel compelled to share,…read moreespecially for anyone considering them for something as costly and meaningful as an engagement or wedding ring. After reading yelp reviews, I was drawn to them based on the reviews and them being a small business and operating since 1973 I took in my late father's vintage wedding band to have it resized so I could wear it. The original size was 10.75, and they measured my finger at a small of 9.25--a reduction of 1.5 sizes. They quoted me $250 for the job, with half due upfront. The technicians were articulate and displayed skill. I trusted their expertise and left the ring in their care. When I picked up the ring, it felt uncomfortably tight. Their response was simply, "Give it a few weeks." As time went on, the ring became so tight I couldn't wear it at all. When I returned, they insisted the work was done correctly at the time and blamed my finger for supposedly changing size. They offered no solution, only excuses. I asked them to resize it to a 9.5 or 9.75 so I could wear it. The refused. When I tried to discuss my concerns, the owner dismissed me with condescending double talk, suggesting I was just a difficult customer because I hadn't worn jewelry before. I felt insulted and taken advantage of. To add insult to injury, they kept the gold removed from my ring during resizing. For a typical men's gold band, reducing by 1.5 sizes removes about 1.2 to 1.5 grams of gold--worth roughly $120 to $150 at current prices. Ethical jewelers follow the practice of returning this gold to the customer, but McCoy's did not. Instead, they kept it, likely to resell or reuse, which felt dishonest and exploitative. It's important to mention that getting engaged and dealing with expensive and meaningful jewelry for a lifetime is already a stressful time. You need to be able to trust the people you're working with. Unfortunately, McCoy Jewelers only made the process more stressful and left me with a bad taste. Eventually, I had the ring properly resized at a reputable jeweler in Chicago for $85, and now it fits perfectly every day irrespective of the time of day, the weather, or my body temperature. In summary: McCoy Jewelers overcharged, kept my gold, failed to stand by their work, and treated me poorly. I support local businesses whenever I can, but I cannot recommend this one. My experience shows that, at McCoy's, the customer is definitely not always right.

When we said no just looking he said "didn't think so" (very rudely). Well we were interested in other items but chose to walk out because of the encounter. Well as we are walking out he eyes us up and says "yeah, you go shop somewhere else" and shoots us with a finger gun. Well this is one of the rudest encounters I have ever been part of. I can understand if we were rowdy and tearing the shop apart but we were being very respectful to his items. We felt very uncomfortable and you can guarantee we will not be back which is a shame because we are in the dells a lot and were interested in some of the items. Dont go here unless you want to be verbally abused for no reason!

I had the best experience with Hands Jewelers this past week…read more A friend gifted me a vintage watch and it needed a new battery. Also, the piece's second hand had detached and was skating freely across the watch face. The associate who greeted me was very enthusiastic about seeing a Tony the Tiger watch and quickly presented me with service options. Sensing my concern about cost of fixing the second hand, she offered an alternative. She also told me the item would be ready by the end of the week but I was called for pick-up well before that timeline. Now, for just over $10, I have the watch up and spinning. Raise your hands for Hands!

The shopkeeper was helpful when I was looking for something with iolite, trying to track down whether there was something. No luck but I appreciated the effort!
