The Jewelry Connection

My boyfriend and I spent one day in Roanoke. We walked around the city market area and I saw the…read moresign for estate jewelry - I'm always drawn to estate jewelry as it tends to be much more interesting. I popped in thinking I would just look at the shinies and not get anything. I was so wrong. The owners are wonderful and friendly and showed me lovely pieces, all reasonably priced. I found a fun moonstone ring, a pendant set with a large citrine and small amethyst, and a pair of green amethyst earrings (same color as the citrine). Then I saw the tiny ring in the middle - a beautiful Edwardian setting with a clear white topaz. The owner said "I love that piece, we've had that forever and it never fits anyone." I tried it on and it fit perfectly. She said, "that is beautiful on you, make me an offer on it." I did, she said "done"! The stones don't show well in the photo but they are all clear and have lovely sparkle. I even went back to get a necklace for the pendant.

Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with Andrew Minton Jewelers. I brought in a pair…read moreof earrings in early April that I wanted converted from studs to dangle earrings. I was told that the dangle earring backs would need to be ordered, but that it shouldn't take long. When I didn't hear anything back for 2 weeks, I called and was told that it would be done shortly. After another 2 weeks, I called again and was told that the earring backs were backordered and wouldn't be available for 3 more weeks. Why couldn't someone call me to let me know? A customer shouldn't have to keep calling. When another week went by, with no update, I called again and talked to Andrew Minton who told me that he would get back to me. The next day, a woman who identified herself with the last name of Minton told me that the earrings were ready for pickup. I came today (June 9) to pick them up only to see that the earrings were not worked on at all. When I asked why I had been called and told they were ready, the young woman (who initially waited on me in April) went back to talk to the jeweler. During this time, a female employee came up to the counter and was working on a computer. She saw the earring back that was to be worked on for my earrings on the counter and promptly put her finger in her mouth to pick up the earring back to give to Andrew Minton. When the young woman came back, I was told that the reason they told me that my earrings were ready (when they weren't) is that my order had been placed in the wrong box. It seemed like a very poor excuse. I remarked on the unsanitary practice of picking up earring backs with spit on one's finger, only to be met with a testy remark from the woman who did it, saying that all jewelry is cleaned before it's given to the customer. Regardless, what this woman did was simply unsanitary and frankly, gross. Adults in a retail setting don't need to spit on their fingers to pick up items. During this exchange with the two employees, the owner, Andrew Minton, was sitting within earshot and never once came over to say anything to me -- a customer who waited 2 months for earrings that were never worked on. I took my earrings back and will take them to another jeweler. Customer service at Andrew Minton Jewelers is poor and unprofessional.

This Place Redefines What a Pawn Shop Is!…read more I've been to a few pawn shops over the years, and let me tell you, this one is on a whole different level. From the moment I walked in, I was honestly shocked. The environment, the layout, the cleanliness, it didn't even feel like a pawn shop. It was one of the nicest retail spaces I've ever been in, period. Super modern, well-organized, and welcoming. The pictures don't do it justice! The customer service was outstanding. Every staff member I interacted with was professional, respectful, and genuinely helpful. No pressure, no attitude, just great people who clearly care about their customers and take pride in their work. One thing that really stood out to me is that this place is veteran and family owned, and you can absolutely feel that in the way they run their business. It's honest, respectful, and has that personal touch you rarely find these days. On top of that, the deals were unbeatable. I found exactly what I was looking for (and a couple of things I didn't even know I wanted) at prices way better than retail. The selection was solid, and everything was clean, clearly priced, and well taken care of. This place completely changed how I think about pawn shops. If you're even slightly curious, go check them out, you'll see what I mean. I'll definitely be back, and I'm already planning to visit their other locations soon!
