Have made many purchases from them over the years. Always been very satisfied with quality of gem stones and service in the store. Mark (original owner) has retired for medical reasons, Paul is new manager but very experienced and helpful. Stepson stole his mother's wedding ring recently. We've been married 32 years. Paul was most helpful in finding one as similar to it as possible.
I’ve shopped with Mark for 20 years, his work is always impeccable. His knowledge of the stones and the 3C’s is beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. He’s always given me great prices too. Several years back I took a diamond ring that I purchased from somewhere else to him to have it sized. I asked him what do he think about the quality of the stones, he said the stones were near perfect and quoted a value of them. He quoted the same price I had paid for it from a different jeweler. He later asked where did I get it from and I shared the info. His response was, they treated me right. I don’t have any real complaints, if there’s one thing he could refrain from is being a little flirty. It didn’t bother me, I summed it up as he’s a business man trying to capture as much business as he can. Personally I hate he’s retiring and closing the store. I trust his work and his eye for the perfect stone. I’m planning on buying several loose stones from him before he closes for good. There will never be another like him. I’m totally shocked by the negative reviews!!!
I have done business with Diamond World for many, many years and I have never had a bad experience with the store or Mark himself. I have bought diamond rings, necklaces, bracelets, replaced a lost wedding ring, and got several watches repaired. Sometimes repairs can take longer than normal but I have never had shoddy work performed by them and Mark has always taken his time to explain the details about the jewelry that I was purchasing. So, I'm just baffled by some of the bad reviews posted here.
Wow,
I was shocked to read all the bad reviews for this place on here. Hell my experience with them was awesome. I went to get my engagement ring here recently using an awesome diamond I had for the center piece. He gave me great information on the quality of the diamond and the staff were very helpful in finding me the perfect setting for the diamond. I paid for the ring in two payments and literally two business days after I paid the ring in full I got a call from Mark telling me that my ring was ready to pick up. The thing was absolutely beautiful. The appraisal I got along with it looked top notch and the box and everything were classy. Not to mention the setting was around five hundred bucks under regular price.
Mark is a little different, that is true but seemed extremely knowledgeable and wanted to help out as much as he could. When my fiancée and I went in to look at bands and get our ring sizes correct after I initially took my engagement ring order to him we decided to look at wedding bands. He went through books with us for almost an hour until we found what we wanted and he ordered them in our size with no money down. Sorry that the others had bad experiences with Diamond World but mine was great and thank everyone from Mark to the very nice girl helping him for it.
