I had the pleasure of utilizing her services for my wedding in August 2012. She altered my wedding dress, created my veil, and re-designed a necklace I'd purchased for my big day. I met with her over the course of a few months, I'd say, and we would spend at least a couple hours each visit either editing items or designing looks. I am sure I am one of her more and quot;pickyand quot; customers, but she never ceased to make everything perfectly the way I wanted it. After many visits and alterations, which were very timely, as well as taking the time to make sure that I had all of the little extras for my big day (dress bag with lock, tool for buttoning my dress, dress cups, fabric and comb for my veil, tools for the necklace), I was more than ready to travel across the country for my destination wedding. My dress and accessories were just about the only thing I WASN'T stressed about during the week of my wedding! I would recommend her services to anyone who wants exceptional alteration services at an affordable price. She is a woman of many talents; before you go elsewhere for jewelry making, accessory designing, or anything of that nature, ask her first because she might be able to do it as well!

Rearranged my schedule to be home when we set the appointment time. Was a no show. The owner gave Riley the wrong address. I said to go ahead and send her out, but she was already on another job. Rescheduled with Mandi who was also a no show. Called the company and the owner couldn’t reach...
They were fast and courteous. The completed the job within a week of the appraisal. The only issue was it took them a month and a half to bill me for the service and there is no way to pay via internet.

What a horrific experience! Upon them delivering my belongings to my new home I was very disappointed to find so, so many things broken or damaged. Much of my furniture is antique and / or family heirlooms which are unable to be repaired or replaced. After trying to contact owner Rodney...

"It went great! We found Fisher Precious Metals on Angie's List, and after googling them, we found they had very positive reviews across the web. Although it was a 45 minute drive from our home, we felt it might be worth it, and it was. We made an appointment with John via email, arrived at 11:00, and spent just over an hour in his office. He evaluated the sterling silver set we had to sell and gave us what we felt was a very fair price. He'd given us an estimate on the value of the gold coins via email, and although the price of gold had fluctuated since he'd provided the quote, the final price was very, very close to the initial quote. We were happy to learn that they will also buy jewelry, as I have a few pieces I haven't worn in a very long time. We were very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely return to their company when we have gold or silver to sell, and we're happy to recommend them to our friends. One thing to keep in mind is that sterling silver sets are basically worth the price of the silver itself. We knew that going in, so we were not disappointed and, in fact, the price we received was a little higher than we'd expected."
