I am very disappointed with my experience at Seaside Trading Post. I had two items there on loan,…read morean Apple iPad and a gold nugget ring, and I repeatedly tried to contact the shop so I could pay the interest and keep my items from being sold. I left messages asking for the manager, Kevin, to call me back and send me the payment link. I was told there were notes on my account, but I never received a return call or the help I was requesting. Later, I was informed that my iPad was already out for sale, and staff said they did not know where my ring was. This was extremely upsetting and felt very unprofessional, especially because I had been trying to communicate and resolve the issue before losing my items. I understand pawn shops have policies and deadlines, but clear communication and follow-up are very important when customers are trying to protect their belongings. Based on my experience, I would caution others to make sure they receive prompt responses and clear updates if they choose to do business here.

One day I went in and bought a nintendo DS for my son. My mistake? Not checking the unit until I left the store. Their mistake? The new guy started a fight and accused me of breaking it.

If this if how they treat someone after 10 years of being a customer, I feel sorry for the guy who walked in 5 mins ago. Bad, bad, bad.

Just so happened to be in the area with my son and we decided to check out the inventory. We were…read moredefinitely surprised. Found some cool treasures and a couple of toys for the weekend. Our sales associate Charles was most helpful and very knowledgeable. My only suggestion would be to to know your knife selection. I picked up what was labled as a Damascus knife, pretty cool, happy with it. However, I did not buy it because it was Damascus, which it was not, I purchased it because of what it was actually made of; Dyed bone handle and a ground down file, usually found in the four corners region. Extremely resilient, has a flexible durability and keeps an edge. Again...pretty cool. Other than that, pretty happy with our visit and even happier with the pricing out the door. Charles really took care of us. I will be sure to patronize that establishment again.

The detailed explanation of your transaction at every step coupled with them taking time to answer all of your questions (should you have any) really makes it a pleasant and easy experience.

Not to mention the coins and jewelry is always fun to look at and if you purchase anything quality is a given!

I needed to find something special for my baby sister's quinceañera, and I had less than 24 hours to do it. We had just stopped at another jewelry store where I was being told that 10K gold "shines just like 18K" and they wanted $3,200 for a piece that was 10K and not even 5 grams. Pfffftttt. Needless to say, I knew exactly where to go. We came to Steve and Jorge and had such a completely different experience. They were honest, patient, and genuinely kind with both of us. They even let my client look at a few pieces and never made her feel rushed or like she was a burden. Anyone who works with someone with late stage Alzheimer's knows how meaningful that kind of patience is. I ended up finding the PERFECT 14K gold ring for my sister. It was thick, beautiful, substantial, and within my $500 budget. They even resized it for me for free! This is exactly why I love supporting honest, family owned businesses. Great jewelry, fair prices, and most importantly, people who treat you like a person instead of a sale. I'll absolutely be back.

So I must say this review is so LONG overdue. ( Try over ten years! ) As I celebrate my ten year…read morewedding anniversary AND being a bridal consultant too I can honestly say that my ring still makes my heart flutter! When the big day is over and the cake is eaten and the flowers die there are few precious items that can take you back to your special moment. And with my occupation as a bridal consultant I see amazing rings EVERYDAY of my life. So when I get compliments on my ring it makes me feel so special! When my now husband on the hunt for the perfect engagement ring he knew it had to be a antique piece. I am a lover of vintage clothing as well as antique furniture. So there was no question in my mind that the engagement ring that I would wear for a lifetime would be a antique piece. I gave my husband an idea as to time frame I wanted for the ring. If you are buying a vintage or antique engagement ring it is important to know the era in which you want to focus on. Since with each era there are different little details as well as the stone cuts are different from stone cuts of modern rings. I love the Victorian and Edwardian eras but not not anything 'newer' than the Art Deco Era. My husband went to many stores including Lang Antiques, Dianne's Old And New Estates and a host of others just to name a few. But nothing seemed quite right. He knew that I wanted my dream ring to have a hearts and flower motif on the filigree metal work on the ring. (I know I am that detailed!) But Judy kept my husbands information since he did not find 'The Ring' on his initial visit. Judy went on a buying trip to the East Coast and when she returned she called my husband to say that she may have my ring. My husband went to look at it and it was quite simply the one. Since our magical day ten years ago this ring that has lived a past life continues to see a life with me. And it makes me feel special and beautiful and special every time I put it on. I have taken it recently to Judi Wyant Antiques to have the diamond tightened and reappraised and much to our amazement and delight it appraised for more than what we paid for it. And it was a significant price increase as well. I have noticed that buying a antique or vintage engagement ring has been in vouge lately. I feel that if you are looking for the perfect antique or vintage engagement ring please start your search at Judi Wyant Antiques. Her staff is excellent as well as knowledgeable in the various eras as well as the diamond cuts of the eras. You will not be disappointed to visit such a elegant and well curated store. I have sent many brides to Judi Wyant Antiques who have admired my ring and they too have been nothing but delighted and have come away well informed. Thank you Judi and staff for taking the time to not only educate my husband on the world of antique or vintage wedding rings but finding my dream ring. I cannot thank you enough for helping us find a ring that was just so perfect. It has carried me through ten years and will go on through our lifetime together. Thank you for your passion for what you do as well as your excellent customer service. Jane who also works with you has always been gracious and courteous every time we have ventured into your store! Thank you again!

He was knowledgeable about the merchandise, offered to show us others items we might be interested in (eventually bought!!) and was extremely patient while we shopped and asked questions. The overall atmosphere of the shop was not the same. The manager on duty seemed bothered by the amount of time we were there and didn't greet the few other customers that came in with the same enthusiasm or care that we received from Nick. We would definitely return to the store but, only if Nick was working. We easily spent 10x what we intended and with no regrets. I hope that he's compensated well because with his personality and gift at selling he would do great in any other sales position.

Very polite, kind and accommodating staff . Well recommended to family and friends. Thanksread more
