I can't say enough good things about Randy and Bob at Jewelry Showroom. After 16 years of marriage…read morewe decided to reset my engagement ring and have a matching wedding band made. Now we all know a girl has to have her bling and jewelry showroom delivered. The custom Halo setting with matching wedding band is stunning!!!!! The price was excellent as I had been shopping around for awhile comparing prices.quality of stones and metals. So when I sat down with Bob I had an idea of the cost and quality of diamonds need to do the job right. They delivered everything and more. I've been a customer of the store for about two years always happy with my purchases but jumping into a big job like this was a totally different story. They have a life time customer now and many referrals ahead. Thanks Jewelry Showroom you created a work of art and craftsmanship.

I had my 2 watches and 4 pieces of jewelry repaired by Goldmine recently and was very satisfied…read morewith the service and overall experience. Their jeweler is a try craftsman and made my jewelry look like new again, and the watchmaker is a true expert of the trade - he took time to explain to me what work needed to be done to my Rolex and Longines watches as well as why service at regular intervals was required. Their staff is very helpful and courteous too, It was an excellent and very pleasant experience overall.

I brought my son's less than a year old G-Shock into Goldmine Jewelry to have the battery replaced…read more While my son was waiting, the owner Chaim attempted to open the back of the watch but was unable to do so.Chaim is not a watch repairman and was unaware that G-Shock watches require more nuanced service to maintain the watches pressurized water resistance. My son told him that the watch would be picked up later in the week and there was no rush. When the watch was returned to us, Shimon the watch repair man replaced the battery but did not use silicone lube when aligning the case gasket, causing the watch to fog up due to the loss of water resistance. I brought the watch back and explained that the water resistance was ruined because they did not properly reseal the watch. A few days later Miriam, the owner as well, told me that they have to break the gasket in order to replace the battery. She said that they don't repair gaskets and told me they are not responsible for the water resistance damage. That is not true. The battery can be replaced without damaging the gasket and it is worrisome that a "professional" Jewelry store owner would say such a thing. When I asked for a repair or a replacement of the watch, Chaim told me that it was my problem and that I should send it back to Amazon. He also told me I was making a big deal over a $100 watch. $100 dollars is a lot of money for me, it was a present for my son's good grades and I felt belittled that my $100 watch was a pittance in his eyes to make a fuss over. I felt belittled. He called me a liar about the age of the watch and didn't apologize after producing the receipt that shows the watch is less than a year old. Shimon the watchmaker wrote on the note that the gasket was broken and needed to be replaced, then when spoken to by phone, he said that he isn't sure if the gasket was broken and that he did not lube the gasket with silicone, as is standard procedure, nor test the watch for water resistance after replacing the battery. The watch is less than a year old and Goldmine Jewelry did not own up to their faulty service. Do not use Goldmine Jewelry for replacing batteries on pressurized water resistant watches, they will not do the proper procedure to assure that water resistance is maintained when changing the battery. In addition, the customer service provided by Chaim and Miriam was rude, unapologetic, fallacious and contentious. I was very irate and used strong language out of frustration due to the dismissive, belittling and defensive responses from the owners.

I visited right after opening, a little after 10 am (many businesses do not open until 11am, like my beloved Seed+Mill). My first impression was that it reminded me of a food hall similar to what I experienced in various cities in Japan. The variety of foods available is impressive and you really can find it all here, from an Italian grocer to Japanese to the various food stands offering everything from BBQ to the best halvah I've ever had. And there's a Pearl River Mart and other places to find gifts and souvenirs. My favorite of this ilk is Muji Market, which has all the Japanese amazing things! Also of note: very clean bathrooms. It reminds me of the bathrooms at Grand Central, a lot of stalls, sinks in the center, only much, much more pleasant. I'll be back as soon as I can. It's silly that I didn't come here when I actually lived in New York.

The physical location is open to 10pm though most shops and restaurants inside are closed by 8-9pm, only a handful of places like Chote Miya, Miznon, and La Devocione were still open though also wrapping up business for the evening. Wanted to highlight a few more stores here for this review: - Moon Man Foods: a Brooklyn-based company, they have a small stand about a third of the way thru the market (walking east to west), selling southeast Asian kaya jam, which is coconut-based and contain eggs, coconut milk, sugar, starch, and salt. They come in pandan, ube, and Java palm sugar (aka gula melaka) flavors. - Pearl River Mart and Pearl River Mart Foods: back in the day they used to be located in SoHo on Broadway, though rising rents made them relocate, and I'm glad they're still around! They carry all sorts of Asian-inspired decor, serving ware, stationery, and their "Foods" location downstairs is combination of Asian grocery, bubble tea (Milk & Tea), and Korean and Chinese snack/takeout stands (Kimbap Lab and Mao's Bao's). - Muji Market: this is a smaller location that carries a narrower assortment than your average Muji (house wares, basic apparel, accessories, kitchenware, snacks), though they have a full cafe serving coffee and matcha, simple Japanese lunch items like bowls, sandwiches and bento. Cafe prices seem a little higher probably due to the location. - gallery art: there is a small whitewashed hallway gallery of maybe a couple dozen small pieces by local artists, featuring NYC-centric photos, sketches, paintings, multi-media. Found this fun and entertaining!

The best jewelers around. my family has been coming to them for many many years and when I was in need of updating my engagement ring these are the only people i would trust. Not only are they great at what they do, but they are very quick- like very quick turn around compared to others. I came to them all the way from NYC because they are so trusted. GREAT people and even better product!! read more

They start off with sending an insured Fedex label to send the jewels over to be appraised, then get back to you with a quote along with their findings within a week or two. You can choose to either accept their offer or reject it. And with the acceptance, you sign a contract and is funded within 1-2 days. And they would send the jewels back to you via insured Fedex overnight should you choose to reject their offer. This is now my 3rd time working with both Evelyn and Logan and I want to say that Windor provides one of the most polite, professional and trustworthy services when it comes to selling one's jewels. :)
