Rude assistant

Elderly male assistant told me his merchandise was “a little better” than the estate piece I was seeking advice to sell on consignment. Verbal exchanges rapidly deteriorated, notably following departure of two other staff. He told me I am “a mean, despicable person” and that he could see “straight through” me. In that case he will see that I have Stage IV cancer and my daughter had offered to sell her ring to help towards the cost of specialised radiotherapy at the Icon Centre. I was told to leave the shop with my cloudy diamond and never to return I would not recommend this business to anyone.

GREAT SERVICE! Above and beyond.
I have been a loyal customer here for 2 years now. The staff is always helpful, happy and go above and beyond. Recently i was looking for a pocket watch for my partner because he works with food and cant have anything on his wrist. They didn't have anything in store so I left me details and the lovely shop assistant spent 2 days tracking down exactly what I was looking for.
My partner uses the watch everyday, Thanks "For the love of gold".
