  HORRIBLE. Inexperienced young man offered me $700 in cash for a watch we believed to be solid 18K gold. The watch, a signed swiss Omega Constellation, is well over fourty years old and marked 18K with 0.750 below on both key areas. While I did not mind his performaing THREE stone rub acid tests on the piece, I was SPEECHLESS when he laid $700 out in front of me, WALKED AWAY WITH MY WATCH (I had not signed the paper to accept it) and this young man took MY WATCH to a GRINDER without my consent, shaving off a good quarter inch of the band's corner, snatching his money back up throwing the watch down (Cracking the glass mind you) telling me "Ah.....it's just plated....." That is in my 20 years in the business of vintage jewelry the single most unprofessional thing that's ever been done to me......im not mad that he was protecting himself as I was selling it as scrap gold.....im mad that he performed a destructive test on MY piece of jewelry without my consent. Numerous calls have not been returned, thus I am going to leave this reveiew ALL OVER THE INTERNET, maybe that will get me results. There is not ONE SINGLE GIA CERTIFIED GEMOLIGIST ON THIS EARTH who would walk off with a customers piece of jewelry and take it to a grinder thus DESTROYING it.....not on a vintage piece, EVER. So, while he saved his daddys little stand $700, I am out the $250 I could have sold the watch for in AS IS condition.....now, it is completely worthless....SEE PHOTO---right at red arrow is the corner he took to a grinder, making the band uneven. Moral to the story here folks, when hard up for cash, AVOID these people and seek a TRUE professional who displays their credentials in their shop window....... LESSION #1-18K with 0.750 below it means the 18K gold is .750 MICRONS thick (Wonder how thick his skull is? Grinder anyone?) LESSION #2-Steer clear of Jewelry JUNK-tion, go to TREAURE HUNT where the professionals work....they were APALLED by this and surely will put jewelry junction in their place.....CLOSED.
