Welp it wasn't steel and it was white gold and now out of luck because of her mistake. Blamed it on me and gas-lit me for it. Really unprofessional and wouldn't ever do business again. Stay away and just sell the watch to a jeweler store instead. Have the blackbox video of it happening and will be posting it on social media for everyone to see since "it is my problem now".

After months of emails and sharing with Ms. Baggenstoss all of my existing documents regarding my…read morecollection she unceremoniously emailed me that she needed to "resign from your assignment due to a time crunch currently; apologies for that." Advice to Ms. Baggenstoss- If you don't have time to take on new clients then don't take it them on waste months of time and then drop them 4 days before the work was scheduled to be completed. It's unprofessional, it's a waste of my time and it's completely avoidable. Advice to readers- Be warned, you may spend months only to get nowhere and need to start again. Response: If Ms. Bagenstoss had been remotely apologetic in her cancellation email ( or made any previous mention of health issues or time constraints) I wouldn't have posted negative reviews. Indeed when I emailed her my response to the abrupt cancellation (essentially this review with a mention that I would leave negative reviews) her response in full was "Thank you!". Taking care of yourself and treating other people's time and energy respectfully are not mutually exclusive.

I know 28 of them equal an ounce. I did have an old WW scale and figured I might have 2 ounces. A 55 year old ladies watch, a couple of small gold necklaces and 6 gold dental crowns. Not all of it was gold, jewelry from my mom. Went in and I swear 15 min later it was tested, weighed and I walked out with a check that could pay for a cruise. Lovely people, patient, answered all my questions. AND FUN!!!

(Please read my review on google)..... Elizabeth is awesome.... She is so helpful, honest and…read morejust a great gal. I had her redesign our wedding set, because we had "obtained" a bigger center stone, and I wasn't going to trust Zales to do it. So Elizabeth sat with us, and she did a great job showing me what my marquise would look like in a bezel setting. She was patient and understanding. She had sent me a "video" of the wax casting with my stone in it, so I could get a full visual on our design. Picked up the finished ring today, (see picture below) and I almost cried... it was beautiful, the new diamond shines, and sparkles.... It is a beautiful ring, and I am so happy I found Elizabeth. I will always look to her for any of my jewelry/appraisal needs. Elizabeth you rock..... :)

Gary is knowledgeable, meticulous with his records, honest, truthful, very, very competent and has an outstanding staff. To even claim he, or any estate dealer, would destroy a customer's items and throw them away shows no knowledge of the business and probably a dependence on --- what?? I have recommended Gary for years and will continue to do so. Keep in mind, the customer never complained and even sent him more work. What has Mary F. Got to do with this ???

He was quick to respond to both emails and phone calls during the lead up, and he spent a substantial amount of time viewing the house and answering our questions. (We had more than a few.) The report we received was very thorough and his conclusions were well justified and accurate. He treated us with respect, and conducted himself with the utmost professionalism when he was on site and after the report was delivered when we had more questions. I would definitely recommend them, and fully expect to use them again if we need appraisal services.

The insurance company agreed with the amount of diminished value as determined by Mr. Nix and settled my claim within a few days without any negotiation or hassle. I highly recommend Diminished Value of Oregon.
