They took detailed photos of the ring before, which were included on the estimate and receipt, and gave a clear estimate of what to expect. This is after we dropped it off at a different shop in Albany to have two bands soldered together, where photos were not taken of the ring at drop off and he felt overall uneasy about that experience. I really felt like everyone was friendly and helpful!

About a year ago, I brought a ring in to Olufson to inquire about having it appraised. The sales…read moreassociate was nice, told me they don't do appraisals, and that they generally don't recommend an appraisal them unless you are planning on selling the ring (strange advice if you ask me. I wanted to have it appraised for insurance). I don't think she knew that I brought the ring in a year or two earlier to have the gem identified (it was an inherited ring and we didn't know what the gem was). And I was told at the time that it was a high quality gem with high quality diamonds on it. She offered to buy it on the spot for $388. I politely declined knowing that the ring was likely worth a lot more. I finally had it appraised and the replacement value is off the charts. I know that replacement/insurance value is not equal to a purchase/selling price AT ALL, but the gold alone is worth 10x what they offered me. So shady. I would never go back to Olufson after this. Moral of the story: Always ALWAYS get a second opinion. Never sell jewelry on the spot. And maybe avoid Olufson.

This has really turned into one of my favorite little shops in Waldport! The rocks and crystals are…read morewhat initially drew me in, and what I continue stopping in for. They also have a nice selection of beads and jewelry though if that's more your thing. The shop is a little small and walkways are narrow, so I always feel like I have to be extra careful not to knock anything over while walking through it, but after enough visits I think I have finally got it down. If there are a lot of people already inside looking around, I'd say it's maybe best to wait for it to clear out a little bit. Just to be safe. Plus you can take that time to look at what they have on display outside. My first couple visits, that were a few months apart, I didn't really notice much difference in stock. I can see it better now though, because I take more time looking at EVERYTHING each time I'm there. They always have the same stuff in stock, like Clear Quartz for example, but now that I pay more attention I can tell it's always new, unique pieces that weren't there before. This goes for the other staple crystals/rocks/fossils they sell as well. I like this because I always wait for a piece to really stand out to me before buying to add to my collection. My favorite part of this shop is that they have a range of items when it comes to expense. They have larger, more expensive pieces as well as smaller ones that are more affordable (what I always go for). Secondly, I love that they have so many NATURAL pieces. I actually prefer the dings, chips, dirt, "flaws" in my crystals. Of course those aren't the only options, just what I tend to go for and I really appreciate that these pieces are available here as well. Lastly, both the woman and man I've met working here are lovely. They even slip in a couple small gifts occasionally. I'm obviously a big fan and intend on continuing stop by when I'm around the area, but I'd also recommend this shop to others, if this sort of thing interests you and you are already passing through.
