I've had the pleasure of working with Steve at Paradigm Experts a couple of times to sell some estate gold pieces I no longer wore. I was referred to Steve by a trusted friend, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. It was evident that he's been in the business for a long time, and his expertise really showed as he provided great advice, particularly on a few pieces I was uncertain about selling.
Steve and his team delivered A+ service and quality when I referred my daughter & fiancé shopping for a diamond wedding band. The ring is STUNNING and turn around time was fantastic!! They were thrilled and happy to have a jeweler they could trust for a quality product at a great value! Couldn't be happier ❤️
Steve bought mostly silver flatware from us. We believe it was a fair price and slightly better than another buyer offered us.
Thanks to Steve, Sherri and Danny for a positive experience and a fair result.
Dear Steve , Please know how much I love my Mom’s ring that you enlarged for me. It’s gorgeous and I’m honored to be able to wear them for her.
