I attended an estate sale and purchased a large, heavy mirror. I realized I wouldn't be able to…read morehelp carry it, so I asked a staff member if someone could assist. She told me yes and mentioned a tip for the person who helped. A gentleman then helped my husband carry the mirror down the stairs. At the top of the stairs, a woman who I believe is named Brittany Y. began following closely behind them on the staircase, which felt unnecessary and made an already difficult situation more stressful. Once downstairs, I handed a cash tip directly to the gentleman. At that point, Brittany took the money from his hand and immediately asked me if I had more to give. When I said "excuse me," she responded, "Not trying to be tacky, but can you give him more money?" I declined. Instead of leaving it there, she remained outside harassing me while my husband and I secured the mirror and continued to ask us for more money. During this time, she told me that "this is her business, and the employee only makes $15 an hour and she doesn't have insurance for them to move things". This was uncomfortable and inappropriate. Discussing an employee's wages and internal policies with a customer-- and especially asking for more money--is highly unprofessional. I did apologize just to end the interaction, but the situation should never have escalated this way. I was willing to tip for help, but being pressured repeatedly and having the money taken from the employee was unacceptable. While I appreciate the help from the gentleman, this experience left a very negative impression. If employees are not supposed to assist with moving items, Brittany could have said something before they started down the stairs.

They promised to replace it and sent me another diamond certificate to approve the switch. Problem was I'm not a professional gemologist. How was I supposed to know if I am getting the same value? I asked many different jewelers and they refused to help me compare the two certificates. I finally found this place on yelp and called them up. I spoke to Danny and he was beyond helpful. Not only he quickly took a look at both certificates and gave me a comparison but he didn't even charge me for the service. I highly recommend them and will definitely go back to them for any jewelry needs from now on.

I took my ring in for repair at a jeweler that I had never worked with and had an unsettled feeling because my ring didn't look right when I got it back. I went to Gemology Resources for confirmation and Melissa was most gracious. She reviewed my GIA certificate, examined all specifications of my ring and confirmed that all was well! A piece of lint was trapped under the main stone, causing the ring to appear flawed. I am so relieved! Trust is required in your jewelry purchases and appraisals. She is an authentic expert worthy of trust! I will be going back for future appraisals to insure my jewelry.
