Paul Algiers and his sons, Paul and Robert worked together until 1980, when Paul Sr. retired. Paul Jr. and Robert took over ownership and moved the business to 200 Main Street to a larger and more up to date Jewelry Store. We are now celebrating 61 years in business. I went in to get a ring re-sized.
I also was going to get a chain and a custom made ring. The ring was re-sized but they polished out the antiquing. Then the sales girl mis-communicated the price. I asked for a refund on the necklace chain and refused to go back to get my custom made ring. Customer service is extremely important. They made way too many mistakes in such a short time.

I have always had a good experience when shopping there. I DID have to WAIT one time while the owner was helping an elderly man. It seems the man wanted a "shaver sharpened" there as he had for 10 yrs. The owner patiently chatted w/the man & accepted the razor.
When I inquired, the owner smiled "I'm going to take it to be sharpened somewhere then tell him it's a free service for good customers".
A&K..... a business with a heart.

This was the first time I'd really ever been to a jeweler. The purpose of my visit was to get my engagement ring resized (I needed it bigger). I didn't interact with the owner (or who I'm pretty sure is the owner), which I'm grateful for. If possible, avoid him at all costs. The minimal time I spent at A&K, I just got a very bad vibe from him. He seems (and sounds, from the other reviews) very rude. There was a very nice lady who helped me, and I would absolutely recommend her. She was quick and efficient.
It only cost about $25 or $35 to get my ring resized, which I was

Went here and spoke to owner about a 2.5 to 3 Carat loose Cushion Cut. This was 4 months ago. I returned 3 times after to follow up and still no call or effort to get me what I wanted. I went to 3 other jewelers who jumped on the opportunity to sell me a 22 to 26k diamond. They failed miserably by assuming perhaps I could not afford when in fact I paid in cash.. literally. In addition the first time I went there I had them polish my jewelery. They charged me 10 dollars and when I got my pieces back they looked untouched. Basically I wouldn't trust this mom and pop place. There are far better

Would give no stars if possible. I'm disgusted by the inappropriate insolence of the owner. If you break someone's jewelry while you're supposed to be fixing it - just fix it. Don't accuse them of moaning and groaning and LYING. Don't call the jewelry cheap - it wasn't! Don't condescend to say you doubt it was purchased in Ireland by a now deceased parent - it was! And certainly don't think that you are entitled to more money to fix a problem you created - you're not! Owner is a smug, insulting cheat. If you want a lot of babyish drama from some hack

Customer service is extremely important. They made way too many mistakes in such a short time. They also damaged my ring but refused to admit to it.
I'm never going back.

I've done business with A & K for many years. I purchased my wedding bands from them and other items over the years and had several repairs.I recently sold them some of my unwanted gold jewelry. I've always been treated with the upmost respect and honesty by some very experienced and talented jewelers.
