We found a wedding band that was half the price here than where we were looking at elsewhere, and it was twice as beautiful. We will come here for everything. We will buy and sell your unwanted jewelry and coins giving you more room for something you'll really love.

Before John Stafford's beginnings as a jeweler, he was a dreamer. At age six he thought he might like to become a jeweler. His opportunity to make his dream come true started in high school where he cut his first stone. From then on, he started in bridal and fashion at the first Stafford's Diamonds retail store.
In 2004, with land purchased from a 20-year customer, Stafford's Diamonds built a beautiful diamond-shaped 7,000 sq.ft. In 2016, Stafford's Diamonds relaunched with its new name (formerly Stafford Jewelers) and a new website, giving you even more options for shopping with us.
Stafford's Diamonds offers a wide array of services. From repairs and appraisals to buying old jewelry and gold, silver, or platinum, you can come to Stafford's for all of your jewelry needs. If you are interested in a custom design, you can work with our designers to bring your vision to life. At the heart of our service is our goal that you leave happy and come back to visit us.
Our staff of jewelry and diamond appraisers and gemologists will make your experience enjoyable and memorable. We'll give you the attention you deserve without trying to force you to buy. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind piece, we make most of our jewelry right here in Dayton, working with local craftspeople.

My fiance and I went in to get our wedding bands and we could not be happier with our experience! The staff was so friendly and helpful and were not pushy at all! They worked with our budget and we were able to find exactly what we wanted! Thank you Shannon and Joe!

So many bad reviews here, but they're all related to a vote about a school district levy in 2021- completely irrelevant and inappropriate for a review of a business. Stafford's is a lovely family-owned business, that takes great care of all their customers, even those who aren't "fancy well-dressed people" (goodness knows I wasn't when I walked in haha). Shannon was incredibly sweet, helpful, informative and kind.

We were never pressured to buy anything but felt confident that this was a place worth patronizing, so we came back without hesitation. I wholeheartedly recommend Stafford's for all your jewelry needs.

I came here searching for a wedding ring. The process from start to finish was top shelf. We create a custom design wedding ring and it turned out beautifully. The process could not have been any easier and the staff could not be anymore helpful with make sure to keep a keen eye on detail. Can't thank everyone enough.

Shannon and the staff at Stafford were the definition of what you want from customer service. Incredibly help, friendly, and prompt. Would easily recommend and will be back for any future purchases. They also offer texting which is great for modern situations!

I have been going to Staffords for years and have purchased and sold jewelry here. I always feel welcomed. Shannon Stafford is wonderful, she's very knowledgeable and warm, she goes above and beyond to help customers. I feel it's important to have someone help you that you trust and she's very honest and helpful. You can't go wrong with quality and service at Staffords.

I have been visiting Staffords for over 20 years and have always been impressed with their professionalism, the experienced staff, the quality of their products, and the prices compared to other jewelers.

I've bought a lot of jewelry from Nick Longo at Staffords over the years. He is truly a great guy and will always have your best interest in mind. He won't pressure you into anything. Very friendly and great place to buy! I will recommend Staffords to anyone I know!

I've read the bad reviews, but want to report that I had an exceptional experience there. Bought our wedding band set there 30+ years ago. My ring needed to be buffed up. Upon handing it back to me (it looked great), she indicated that it was due to be re-plated with Rhodium, but would take 24 hours. It was just $35 (think $1 per year). I didn't have the time, but thanked her for letting me know and told her I was going to come back for that service.

As I walked to my car, I had difficulty getting this ring over my knuckle, so knowing that sizing is what they do I asked her to tell me the size the ring was, and to measure me today. I went from 9 to 10.5. She said "For $50, I'll do both the resizing and re-plating". More than fair. I left the ring, picked up the following day and I'm completely happy.

I absolutely love my jewelry from Stafford's. I receive lots of compliments on my Diamond. They take the time to listen to what I'm looking for.

Best jeweler in Dayton! I have never been disappointed. The staff is professional and very friendly. My parents have been going here for 30 years and I know why, the jewelry is absolutely beautiful.

The owner of this company is using money from this business to attack a local school district. When he is not trying to stoke a mob uprising against the local school for passing a levy, he is attacking people for playing golf on a nearby park. He is a menace to the community.

We received great service. The sales team took time to help us find what we needed. They were friendly and efficient.

Great jewelry at great prices! Why would anyone go anywhere else? You would have to be a snowflake to actually buy jewelry anywhere else

I recently purchased an engagement ring from Stafford. I can't recommend them enough. I shopped around quite a bit and Stafford was, hands down, the only place I wanted to spend my money. If you want a pushy commission driven salesperson, this is not the place for you. This is the ONLY jewelry store I found that will leave you alone when you want left alone.

They will not try to upsell you either. Shannon was great to work with. I could tell she wanted what was best for me, not her pocket. Ignore the fake negative reviews. If you are looking for jewelry, this is the place to go.

Professional, affordable, and customer oriented are a few words that describe Stafford Jewelers. I went here to shop for an engagement ring and was met with professionalism and a knowledgeable staff. I didn't feel pressured and when I pull the trigger I will buy the ring from Stafford. I am originally from Dayton and checked them out when I was visiting family. I will drive from Lexington to give Stafford my business; that is how great and friendly the staff was.

Very rude service all around - everyone seemed too busy to help us. (Also it seems as though the owner is going through all the one-star reviews and lying to say they're "fake".that should be all you need to know.) please go to another jeweler and get good service.
