I have had nothing but great experiences. Yes, occasionally more time is spent with a customer than one would like but regardless, when your time comes around it is totally committed. Yes, I may have to wait 10 minutes but when my turn comes, it is worth waiting. If you want quick Walmart service then go to a big corporation. Myself, I prefer family customer service. We need to preserve our small,local enterprises…truly.

This place is a "go to" for many. Anytime I'm looking for a rare find they always come through. Owners are great folks that are well known and respected for their contributions in our community. Thanks for serving us over the decades!! See you this week as I need christening items! ❤️

When I arrived the door was locked, yet the store was open. There was one customer inside, taking some time. I had to wait outside in the freezing cold for around 10 min, when the customer asked for 5 more minutes. I cannot believe they made me wait outside. I didn't wait, and I won't be back!

This is a very nice and friendly place to shop. They have gifts and items not available elsewhere including Christian/Catholic items. It's also a good place to buy cards. Sadly, one of the co-owners recently passed away, and I want to express my deepest condolences.

4 Most common types of Jewelry Repairs at Squitti's.Just to help you out with your repair options, and expected time, we offer the following information.1. Broken Clasps, missing jump rings, open jump rings, watch batteries.This type of repair, can be done in the shop in minutes. We often have the appropriate findings in the gold quality, 10, 14, or 18 Kt gold, or less expensive silver or gold plated clasps or jump rings to repair.I personally can do these simple repairs in a few minutes, time permitting, so the jewellery does not have to be left for long, and often you can wait for the repair, as you can for watch battery replacements.Watch batteries. Not all watches are the same, and some are more complex and some can take a while. Normally the less expensive watches are the easiest to replace batteries in. More expensive watches, with tight seals, require special tools to open, and special tools to close; some are not that simple.2. Ring resizing and shanks.Ring sizing comes in two directions, up or down. Normally sizing down is easier, unless the size change is great, and their are precious stones involved in the setting, that must be checked to ensure that they have not loosened due to the change. Squitti's has on contract a local diamond setter with many years of experience in this area.Silver rings, with precious stones tend to be more difficult, as are many of the rings you buy on line. Many are imports with uncertain quality standards.In some cases, it is better to change a quarter or half of a shank,since the shank has been worn down, and further sizing down, and more often up, renders a shank that is far to thin. You will be advised of this.Sizing can vary from 2 hours, to 2 days to 2 weeks.3. Re-tippingRe-tipping diamonds and precious stones, together with a professional buffing, or cleaning renders the jewelry looking like new. Rings should be checked every few years, it only take a minutes to ensure you don't increase the risk of losing an expensive stone.At Squitti's everything in brand new. We do not buy or sell estate jewelry. We can use stones from your other jewelry to repair your jewelry.4. Stone replacements.These type of repairs take the longest. Claws or the head in which the stone sits may have to be improved or changed. Stones have to be ordered to match, and sometimes small stone make take a while as shipping for one small stone is expensive.Squitti's offers a selection of the finest precious stones available, from rubies, to sapphires to emeralds, many available in a variety of qualities.Diamond selection again is based on diamond quality, and there are many, many options.Repairs, come in may forms, from simple repairs to stone replacements. Thank God, we have been in the jewelry business for decades and are willing to offer our opinion on repairs.If there is a rush for an item, please so advise us, as repair times can vary. When calling to inquire about a repair, it is best to give details of the item, and what is actually happening to it, to help us with the details.Complimentary parking is available at the back of the shop.

I had a similar experience to a reviewer above in regards to my ring taking FOREVER (close to 4 months) as well as slow responses (or no response at all) and a snarky owner.For an example of his snarky attitude you only have to look at his response to a previous reviewer because it starts with him saying ‘First of all’. How ridiculous to respond to a customer complaint in that manner.Two of the 4 ‘positive’ reviews left here are also from himself. In addition to the above, my experience also included visible bubbles in my $$$ Tiffany & Co. platinum engagement ring. HORRIBLE
