I can't recommend Aj enough! Just walking into the Abercrombie Gems everyone was so professional and welcoming. It is a little nerve racking going through a divorce now needing to sell my engagement ring with a trusty buyer. Aj was so friendly and very knowledgeable explained every step. His appraisals are so honest and fair and I left feeling so grateful. Thanks again Aj and Abercrombie Gems! Ill be sending all the divorcees your way lol!

We are really saddened by our experience with Abercrombie. The engagement ring my fiance bought a year ago broke. We sent it to them to repair asking for them to put a new shank on it to give it more life and size it up. They did not apply a new shank and sized it down. I can no longer wear the ring and it now does not have enough metal in it to resize it. They defended their work rather than asking how they can make it right. We are now working with another jeweler who is working to make their wrong right. The customer service and integrity behind their work is less than desired. Will never work with them again.

Had some gold and silver I was looking to sell. Have never sold precious metals before, but this was the first place that came up on Google, so I gave it a shot. The owner gave me a very low estimate, said it would be very hard to sell what I had, and called my coins junk despite many of them having a numismatic seal. The very next two places I went to offered twice as much as what Abercrombie offered.
I told the guy that I didn't know much about precious metals, so I think he was just trying to rip me off and scare me into selling for dirt cheap. He could have bought my coins and literally gone to another buyer in Austin the very same day to sell them for twice what he would have paid me for them. Yet he told me that they would be hard to sell. I did eventually sell my coins to another buyer for a fair price.

As a completely clueless man trying to navigate the engagement ring process, the Abercrombie team were lifesavers. They guided me through the process of getting stones from one ring to put into a different ring, answered all of my questions and were always willing to pick up the phone. Jewelry can be intimidating - I'm so grateful I found the Abercrombie folks!
