I've traveled a lot and always seem to be looking for some little gift to give someone when I'm away but then I remember Linda's gift store and think why bother I can find anything I need there in fact when I was out of town, a Friend's birthday was coming up and I had to get it by the time I got home. I knew the store would be closed so I called Linda and asked her to please get this particular item and please wrap it and I will pick it up when she opens. I gave her my credit card. She wrapped it, and the problem was solved immediately. I am so grateful the store is literally in our backyard. I could see her very easily opening another store in one of the Hawaiian islands. She would be a tremendous success, but then I would miss her. Thank you for your careful choosing of the items you carry in your store. As a former owner, I know the hard work pays It takes to have a store like hers . Again , thank you for your service to our community.

I have purchased many silver pieces from them, Super Silver decided to get my husband a chain,…read moreregret it and now I'm questioning if it's true silver. We have owned this particular chain less than a month and it gets black, smells like metal despite how many times you clean it and/or polish. Sadly to say this will be the last purchase I will do in this jewelry shop. Can't believe they weren't willing to work or give options to a long time costumer, preferred to lose a costumer.

This jewelry shop is really cute and small but they have a lot of sterling silver pieces that have…read morereally fine details. I really want to come back and buy one of the hammerhead shark rings or octopus rings. They have a lot of really small, detailed sterling silver pendants that I have never seen before. They have a little something for everyone: chef, nurse, firefighter, dog or cat owners, fantasy/fairy, animal lovers, etc. I was in here for a good 30 minutes and didn't feel like I was being annoying or rushed out. I really wanted to leave with something so I bought a ram head pendant and a ring. I bought both for around $40. The ram head has really nice detail. It actually LOOKS like a ram. The only thing I was a bit disappointed in was their ring selection. It is nothing like their pendant selection. I wish they had more eccentric, goth, or bolder choices to choose from. I like skull rings and they did not have much to choose from.

Garrett's has been a staple in our lives for over two decades, and it was time for a visit. My wife…read morehad a few pairs of earrings that needed surgery, and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to reconnect with Jeff and Yvonne, the lovely couple who have been our go-to jewelers. As always, Jeff and Yvonne were the same wonderful people we've come to know and trust. They chatted with us, cleaned up the earrings, and worked out which ones needed to be sent off. Two weeks later, my wife returned to pick them up, and they were in a brand-new state. Repairs don't come cheap, but neither does a new pair of earrings, so my wife was thrilled with the results. I've read some recent and less than favorable reviews about Garrett's, and I understand that everyone is entitled to their own opinions. However, I want to assure anyone looking for a solid family-run and ethical jeweler that Jeff and Yvonne are the most genuine couple I've ever met. It's been an absolute pleasure to work with them each time we've visited. As an Elite member, we have a duty to be unbiased, which means we should always say it as it is. However, I find it a crying shame when I see a negative review. I click through to the profile and realize that the reviewer has way more gripes than praise. They jump on the platform to moan without caring to understand the ripple effect their negative comments can have. Anyway, another great visit, good results, and a reconnection with a lovely, caring couple who truly love their trade and their clients!

Products 10 out of 10…read more I had one incredibly awesome sales person today and one that couldn't quite understand the concept. Well, visiting one of my favorite stores down the street I thought I would browse some of the silver. I immediately found two pieces. I was interested in and immediately had a lovely young gentleman blonde with a little mustache come and open one of the wall cabinets and then one of the glass tables. Easy Peezy I was enjoying my experience. I said I will definitely take that piece. I said I'm not quite done shopping yet and started to look around about five minutes later, I was done, but the gentleman who had been helping me was helping someone with a watch so I was waiting until he was done. while waiting for the guy to be done with the lady with the watch I noticed a ring that matched the pendant, you see in the pictures and realize it also matched a pair of earrings. I had there were two very similar rings, both size 10, but in different display holders, but the same cabinet. I went up to the register because the gentleman who helped me originally was still busy and asked to see two rings from two different display trays. He pulled the first set of rings out and said he could only take one tray out at a time which was not a problem. I was surprised when he wanted to go all the way back to the front of the store instead of on the jewelry table right there where the rings are and I said could we please just take the one ring out of one of the displays and that ring so that I could look at both of them I'm only interested in those two rings that's when I met Jennifer Jennifer was on her way to lunch and I really wish now that she had gone on her merry way because she inserted herself in ways that mean I will never walk into the store again. Literally I was not going to be able to compare the two ring. I could look at one ring at a time at the front of the store but separately So I went ahead and said never mind. I will just purchase what I've already decided on and walked back to the original gentleman. He was super nice at this point Jennifer came walking from another part of the store because the gentleman helping said I don't mind showing you the rings ma'am that's when she lost it. She told me that maybe I didn't need to buy something from the store today. The gentleman pursued and continued to help me. I said let's not even bother looking at the rings. Let's just purchase the pendant instead of leaving for her lunch hour. She continued to harass me and follow me to the register. At which point I asked for her name, she gleefully thrust her card at me and said that she was the assistant manager and I said I didn't care if she owned the store the way that she treats customers is not OK. I went ahead and purchased the $78 pendant because it's so well matches a pair of earrings. I already have. It's too bad. I don't have the ring also to match it, but I am never stepping foot in the store again. I would also like to mention Jennifer the assistant manager for a third time said to me maybe I didn't wanna shop at the store she didn't ask me to leave but the threat was clear three different times she says maybe you shouldn't shop here. To be fair I understand being short staffed to be fair. I understand only wanting to take out one display at a time, but not allowing a customer to compare two rings to decide which one they are going to buy is absolutely ridiculous. Super clear that I was only interested in the two size 10 turquoise rings. Unfortunately, they were in separate cases in the same locked cabinet. I'd also like to point out. These were not expensive rain. It's not like we were talking about diamonds and sapphires here we're talking about rings under $200. I'm really hoping Jennifer finds lunch because she's not really very pleasant when she's hungry. A huge shout out to the gentleman who helped me because on three occasions, he literally paused, helping me because Jennifer was telling him maybe I shouldn't be purchasing. I have never in my life had an experience like this.
