Just like for another reviewer on Google,  Jordans reset my diamonds very poorly. The staff were…read morepleasant and cost-conscious while planning my ring. But the ring came back a mess. The diamonds were irregularly spaced, tilted at different angles, set at irregular heights and they snagged on everything. The ring is too embarrassing to wear. They were unwilling to make any corrections without charging me and offered no compensation of any kind for my deep disappointment and expense. They blamed the problem on the varied sizes of the diamonds. If that were the problem, they should have told me they could only make an ugly ring with them.  They displayed no pride in their craft or responsibility for their sale. I took the ugly ring to Richard Gretz Goldsmith who is redesigning it from scratch with my diamonds at less than what Jordans charged me. And Gretz offers a guarantee that if I dislike the ring for any reason I get my money back. I wish I had seen the other woman's review before I took my diamonds to Jordan's.

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.

Since I couldn't find how to edit my existing review, I submit my edited and updated review here:…read more HIGHLY recommended. Walked in to this cute little jewelry store and in less than 15 minutes, I'd found the perfect engagement ring, a beautiful vintage white gold filigree and diamond, for my fiancee. Surprised (pleasantly) at the price. Spoke with Mike Anderson on that day and on future days, and the man is simply honest, straightforward, pleasant, capable and deeply knowing of his business. His fee for adjusting the ring size, also surprisingly affordable. I cannot, cannot recommend this place and this man highly enough. UPDATE: I returned a couple months later, after the above, to Mike Anderson to talk about wedding bands. He sized me, showed me different styles and fits, and we quickly got to exactly what I was looking for. Three or so days later, he called, had found a vintage ring that was exactly for me (vintage / estate, 14k white gold, comfort fit). It was sized and refitted for me, and I now have my perfect, beautiful, shining wedding band for my coming nuptials. Again, I was quite pleasantly surprised at the cost to me. Affordable! Most recently, as my fiancee and I just happened to be passing his store, we ventured in to see if Mike could perform the "hat-trick" of wordly miracles. We were in the store, total, for perhaps 45 minutes, but even before that much time had passed, he'd found her band for us. This time the band was already on site. Just having started his inventory search, and with another, older couple patiently waiting, he asked from the back of his store, "are you interested in an antique?" We enthusiastically answered Yes! He brought out the ring for her. A delicate, beautiful, decoratively engraved 18k white gold vintage band...one that matched perfectly her engagement ring. The wedding band was slightly snug on her, so he offered to have the ring stretched slightly--something I hadn't even known was possible. Since I was sensitive to price and wanted to know but did not want to discuss with fiancee present, a couple of winks between us and he understood. He offered to inquire with his jeweler / craftsman about the feasibility of the stretch, then told me he'd call me on Sunday with the result after conference with his crafter. He dutifully called me on Sunday. I missed the call. He kindly gave me the price (once again, surprisingly affordable), knew enough implicitly to leave the ring with crafter (despite not reaching me directly) and await official agreement as well my official purchase when we spoke next. This is the kind of business we are talking about. In all appearances and experience with him, honor and skill and care are all rolled into one with this Mike Anderson. Never in my life did I dare dream of such an easy, fortuitious, even providential experience in finding and procuring all three of the most vital material elements of a holy union. God bless Mike Anderson, along with much gratitude from me. He indeed performed the hat-trick.
