Before I begin let me just say this used to be one of my favorite jewelry stores in the entire world as I have traveled quite a bit.\n\nNow for the reason I am giving it one star. \nIn 2009 I found this once gem and from then on started coming twice a year. A greeting with a smile & accommodating staff - it has been this way for 4 years prior until...this year. \nI came in with my three bestfriends (one of Mexican descent, one African-American and one of half half Philipine descent. I myself am both Hispanic and Asian). I was looking for a new promise ring for myself and for my boyfriend as well since I had heard they finally had rings for men. \nNow for the reason I described myself & those with me - On the night of November 18th we walked in and were greeted with darting eyes. After we began to touch the ring collection, the women working that night who should have greeted us proceeded to then latch on to each of us and followed us from case to case right on our heels not in a friendly nor accommodating way. I previously worked in retail so I know how things work. They constantly stopped us,  asking to count our rings which normally would be fine but in such a small store and space,  as many times as they stopped us and asked us was absolutely absurd. I was beginning to feel uncomfortable and very unhappy. \nJust in case it was just in my head, my best friend proceeded to test the saleswoman following her to see if she was truly following her. She moved from one side of the small table to the other then repeated it 3 more times. The woman was most certainly following her as was the rest of the staff with each of us. One sales woman must have felt that harassing us this way was so funny that she actually started dancing right behind us while watching us. I became quite angry at this point as did my best friends. We had come to shop and for them to help me pick out promise rings that my boyfriend had given me money to do so. It was meant to be a happy and enjoyable experience and was anything but.. We were then almost rushed out. To know that people on this earth still act like this was quite disheartening. It was the first time I have ever had such a terrible shopping experience and one of the worst ones including all the other countries I have traveled too. On top of all of this, the quality of the rings have declined as well since last spring. Both staff and rings have changed for the worse. I no longer will recommend that people go to this location nor will I ever visit here when I come in from out of town, especially if this is what they stand for.
