Valentine's Day Is 2/14

Dan Barnes

On a whim walked in asking about a piece of jewelry we purchased out of state at a market. While (sadly) we didn’t get good news, I really appreciate how candid and honest the owner was with us about it. We were considering spending $$ to have it tested and what not but his assessment, offered for free was clear and obvious that what we had was more or less worthless on value.

We’re in the market for a ring, and plan to go back and see what we can come up with. Thanks again for your honesty.
