Default Philadelphia Ladies: has anyone dealt with William Schwartz Jewelers?
I stopped by today and spoke with Russell Schwartz, the owner, about having a custom e-ring made. He showed me some bands, settings, and diamonds that I am really excited about. Before my lovely bf proceeds, I was just curious if anyone here has had an experience with them, positive or negative. Thanks in advance!

Are they in Jenkintown, PA or the city? I'm not sure I know them.

They're in center city Philadelphia, on Chestnut at about 18th st. There's a picture of their storefront on their website: http://williamschwartzjewelry.com/about.htm

I think they're friends of my in-laws. I try not to do business with friends cause it is awkward if there is a problem. But if it is the people I think, they are a little pricy. Did you ever hear of Rosnov Jewelers? They're great to work with!

IDK, it seems like a super good deal. The ring I want is white gold with a little bit of pave and a 1/2 carat antique diamond for a little bit under $950 (or in platinum for about $1700). It was actually the cheapest place I looked, but I will definitely check Rosnov out. Thanks!

Govberg's right across the street has most of their diamond jewelry 50-60% off. It's worth a look.
