Im editing this review to see if dude is gonna be good on his word or not and give me back my coins in 7 days for what ever reasons those are. Thats beyond predatory business dealings. I already called u guys and spoke to u on the phone and said this math aint right. U guys said sure no problem come on down ull give me my property back. I drive 32 miles to get there for u to call him on the phone. After u guys already told me to come back no problem. U call Dude he waits to talk to me until the store is empty and theres no customers around and tries intimidating and punking me out of my coins. And then has the nerve to call the cops on me. I offered dude a 100 bucks to just give me back my property. $15 a coin on almost $32 a piece melt value is straight. Predator behavior. I thought i was getting $30 a piece. Leaving u guys to make 2 bucks and some change off of each coin u bought off me. Easily over a $100, but u guys hit me for 52% way more then the 10% 15% quoted over the phone which is still robbing u from any profitd u would have gained from buying and holding onto ur coins for over 15 years. Just give me the property back please and ill give u a $100 for the storage fees.

If you're looking for a gold shop look no more , this is the place for every gold need you need . I've been looking for a 1946 centenario with chain and bezel and every other spot will try to up charge you like crazy but mark was the most reasonable and helpful jeweler in SACRAMENTO! He didn't have the 1946 in the moment but told me if he ever got one he would call me . My bezel broke on me and he was able to check it out for me and sell me another one that caught my eye and I mentioned the 1946 coin to him and I can't thank mark enough for this but he was willing to give me one of his personal 1946 coin to me to help represent my late grandfather. I'm truly thankful for mark and his help with me finding this to represent my grandfather thank you again mark and if you need any gold piece please check this place out there are A1 in every aspect !

Ask the Community - The Gold Digger

Do they make custom gold jewelry?

Good evening, yes we do

Is there an option of using gold as collateral for cash with the option to buy it back within a certain time frame? Desperate times call for desperate measures sometimes

Unfortunately we only buy we do not loan, but if it is in coin or bullion you can sell and rebuy new stock at a small precentage

Kenny G and Company Fine Jewelers has been part of our story for more than 23 years. When my…read morehusband and I were just starting out, we went to Kenny G and Company to purchase the wedding ring I had always dreamed of. My husband worked incredibly hard to give me that ring. It represented not only our marriage but also the hard work, and love that went into building our life together. When I recently lost that ring after 23 years of marriage, I was absolutely heartbroken. The ring's unique setting had been discontinued. Kenny Gordon, the owner, personally went above and beyond by reaching out to the original designer and ring maker on our behalf. Thanks to his efforts, the designer agreed to recreate the discontinued tension setting, giving us the opportunity to restore something we thought was lost forever. When I received my new ring, I was overwhelmed with emotion. It exceeded all my expectations and was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. The craftsmanship is extraordinary, and every detail reflects the care and dedication that went into creating it. Kenny G and Company didn't just replace a ring, they helped restore a cherished piece of our marriage journey. Their commitment to their customers, both then and now, is truly remarkable. After more than two decades, they continue to provide exceptional service, expertise, and genuine care. I cannot recommend Kenny G and Company Fine Jewelers highly enough.

I just had the best first experience at Rogers jewelry. Recently, my favorite pair of earrings…read morebroke, specifically the backing. I was devastated as I had purchased these when I visited Greece three years ago and they are very special to me. I went to one jewelry store that was pretty well known and he could not fix it. I then went over to Rogers jewelry and I was greeted by Sage (sp?) He was very nice and helped me immediately. He put a work order in to fix my earrings. It was maybe a month later Sage called me and told me that the earrings were brought back to the store however, on transit the backing looked like it may just break again. He didn't want to give them back to me with a possibility of just breaking again. He asked if he could send it back to try one more time. I said absolutely whatever they could do to fix it. It was literally maybe a week later. I got a text saying they were ready to pick up and they were fixed. I was so happy I could cry. I was worried that they weren't gonna be able to fix them but they look great. They feel great. They're just as they were. I can't think them enough for taking care of my jewelry and being so kind. I will absolutely return if I ever have another piece of jewelry that breaks. The customer service was phenomenal and the value is unprecedented.

Anatoliy and Mike their jeweler spent a great deal of time discussing options for my ring and its design. Secondly, I had 3 bracelets I purchased elsewhere for flower girls in my daughter's upcoming wedding. I feared they maybe a little small and asked if they could add loops to extend the length to ensure they would fit. To my surprise the jeweler found some chain rings and extended the size perfectly and didn't charge me! I couldn't be more impressed with the service and expertise of the staff. I'm so grateful, and will definitely be back!

After researching the internet,…read moreand calling multiple gold buyers around the Sacramento area, Ice Vault gave me the most value for my 10k and 14k scrap gold I had, I was very pleased with the value I got when comparing it to what other gold buyer shops offered in my area offered me. Unaware this was a jewerly shop, and not just a coin and gold buyers location like other places, to my SURPRISE Ice vault has many different types of services they provide, such as custom grills (gold teeth), custom jewelry and Rolex watches. FurthermoreInside the jewerly shop is really clean and welcoming environment. I was greeted when I stepped foot into the door and offered the most money for my gold. I originally came to this location to sell my jewelry, but now Ice Vault has a Repeated customer. I've purchased 2 gold pendants there so far and you can see them in my post. I always get compliments when I wear them. Needless to say, Ice Vault is one of a very few if not the only honest Jewerly business's that are left in the Sacramento area. The owner also ask me "Are You Happy?" LOL and of course Im happy with the extra money I wasn't gonna receive for selling my gold elseThey make sure you are a happy customer before leaving. Ice Vault has EARNED my respect and trust which isn't easy from an individual like myself to give out. It's always a treat when the real meet!

If you are looking for a unique ring here is the place to go. They are very patient as you pick out your jewelry and don't try to upsell you. They listen to what you are looking for and help you find just what your heart desires. Their jewelry is truly magical I love that they have free cleanings and they always check to ensure the stones don't come loose. We try to come once a month or every other month depending on our schedules. Run don't walk as they are closing their doors around Christmas as it's time to retire. They have a big sale going on now and I'm hoping to get some matching earrings. It's going to be a sad loss to the community when they close their doors.

It was my first time visiting Old Sac so it was interesting visiting here and finding Skalet tucked away here. Street parking (if available) is cheaper than the garage as FYI.

If you are only obtaining services and…read moreare not purchasing an item, make sure they do not charge you sale's tax since sale's tax is only applicable to purchasing a materialistic item. This information can be verified with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration - Publication# 73. I visited Legacy Jewlers to have my wife's rings resized. Upon the initial visit I met with one of the owners, Kevin who was very friendly and was able to assist us with determining the proper sizing of the ring. He mentioned it would take about a week to complete. The cost to resize (1 size down) a gold ring and platinum ring was $120. When picking up the rings I met with the other owner, Nick. He included sale's tax even though CA sale's tax is only applicable to purchasing materialistic items and not services. I explained that CA sale's tax is not applicable to services and he could verify this information with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) which is the CA State Department that administers the Seller's Permit which is required to operate the business. I even offered to show him exactly where this information could be found on the CDTFA website since he had a computer nearby. He declined and said he wasn't changing how he charges customers even though he refunded me the illegally charged sale's tax. It was interesting to encounter a business owner oblivious to the law while declining to learn and apply the law to prevent an audit, fees, and potential Seller's Permit revocation by the CDTFA.
