I was interested in a beautiful Alexandrite ring that I fell in love with at Continental Loan. Jamie was the employee that first answered all my questions and let me examine the color change properties of the ring. She shared the appraisal that also had pertinent information regarding stone sizes, quality, etc. For me, the purchase of this ring was a big investment.
I needed to be certain that I was making the purchase, not just on looks and desire to wear it. I called the appraiser and was very pleased to find that she has been in business for 41 years and is highly certified and has worked closely with Continental Loan for a long time. She answered all my questions and assured me of the authenticity of the ring.
She also spoke highly of Continental Loan and it's owner Dave. After 3 days of research and consideration I bought this beautiful ring. I am so pleased and happy. Thank you Jamie at Continental Loans, and also Teresa at Accurate Gem Labs for your time and patience in making this purchase and investment.

Shops nice and all but got lowballed on a pair of Fancy Yellow Diamonds because they were "small" $100 for a pair of cushion cut fancy yellows with VS clarity each weighing approximately.25 ct is insanely low. Fancy colored diamonds are more valuable than normal diamonds. Was told colored diamonds "aren't more valuable" Went and got them appraised at $1100 for the pair and put them with another shop who actually had knowledge when it comes to diamonds/jewelry.
I wouldn't be surprised if they would turn down a fancy pink because it's "small" when even.10ct fancy pink diamonds can be $10,000+. If you're going to have jewelry in the shops name I suggest at least having some knowledge in the field Edit: I'm not "shaming" this business I'm leaving an honest review about my experience and their lack of knowledge when it comes to Fancy colored diamonds and their value.
I was straight up told "fancy colored diamonds aren't more valuable" which is 100% false. If I wanted to shame the shop I would have left a 1 star review. Yes the shop was clean and nice, however I felt as if I was trying to be taken advantage of because of my young age and assumed lack of knowledge. Which is why I left my review telling my experience. Saying you have experience in jewelry when you run a pen/jewelry shop isn't the same thing.
I've actually taken courses at GIA in New York and courses at their California location as well. Anyone who actually has knowledge about jewelry knows fancy colored diamonds hold greater value than white diamonds, just because you buy and sell jewelry doesn't mean you have extensive knowledge in the field. I didn't see any certifications or degrees from any gemological institute.
I purchased the diamonds at wholesale prices directly from Israel. I know what they're worth in a wholesale and retail environment. The appraiser I took them to for the laser scanning and mapping even agreed that $100 for both, let alone a single fancy yellow stone of that size and quality.

What can I say? Well, this place is a place I will always come back to. Unfortunately due to financial reasons I came here to get a loan. They did not lowball me, and the customer service was amazing! Starting from the phone call I placed prior to visiting. The lady who answered was professional and friendly. When I arrived, the man I dealt with was the same. Plus! This is the CLEANEST shop I have been in. Only place i will do business with from here on out!

Went here a few days ago just looking around for nothing in particular. Then saw a really nice looking Henry.357 Magnum Lever Action rifle. Did not look at it much the first time around. Talked to one of the employees about some other stuff and had a good time. Came back on Friday March 12th and the rifle was still there. So I asked to look at it. Was in great shape. Talked to the employees some more while looking at the rifle and bought it then.
Have not gotten to shoot it yet due to ammo shortages. But the employees there were pretty awesome. And they actually had a decent gun selection even with all the shortages right now. They also had quite a lot of tools and things. (Which I'm going to go back hopefully today and great one of the tools they had)
