Title: Local Jeweler Post by: jne on July 11, 2007, 04:01:15 pm Can anyone recommend a reputable local jeweler. I hear nothing but horror stories about Zales and the like. I need to finally suck it up and by an engagement ring. Luckily, I already have a great diamond in a vintage ring that just needs to be set in a new ring. I just don't want to get ripped off or have bad service. Jewelry stores are uncharted territory for me!

Title: Local Jeweler Post by: tulsacyclist on July 12, 2007, 07:53:29 am We had some repairs done on my wifes wedding ring at Massoud's at the Farm. He did a great job and the price was cheaper than Helzbergs for sure.

A diamond in my wedding wing cracked and they let me choose the replacement diamond. They offer a lifetime guarantee if you take your piece in every four months for an inspection and cleaning. I go to the 12th and Harvard store.

I've done business there, purchasing, repairs, sizing, etc. for almost 20 years. Never had a complaint and never felt like I was being raped, though every jewler does that. Title: Local Jeweler Post by: NellieBly on July 12, 2007, 08:59:05 am Izzy's my man -- although every time I go in there he tries to sell me something.
He likes to tell me 'take it outside and look at it sparkle.' Title: Local Jeweler Post by: restored2x on July 12, 2007, 10:28:36 am Any of those are good, I guess...
But more importantly: CONGRATULATIONS! Title: Local Jeweler Post by: RecycleMichael on July 12, 2007, 10:40:07 am There are three rings to marriage...

Title: Local Jeweler Post by: Johnboy976 on July 12, 2007, 06:45:19 pm I have trusted Israel Diamonds with some repairs before. They actually did a great job. While they do not insure the center diamond (in regards to any engagement or wedding ring you purchase through them) the side diamonds are covered. My wife's ring had a side diamond fall out of it (mainly because she was a little rough with it in the first place) and they quickly replaced it.
Title: Local Jeweler Post by: Aa5drvr on July 13, 2007, 03:31:30 am Ive done business with most of the local jewlers. My favorite for price and service is Israel. A close second is Lonnie at Vincent Anthony at 101st and Sheridan.
