Review from alison m.

8/26/2009
My fiance and I visited Anderson's during our search for wedding rings and had a wonderful experience there. The store carries both new inventory and estate jewelry. Lisa Wikstrom Curran, the salesperson working with us, showed us a surprisingly large assortment of rings within our budget, many of which were nicer and more unique than similar rings we'd seen elsewhere. By the end of our visit I was debating between two rings (one new and one estate), both of which they were nice enough to "hold" for me for more than a week without a deposit, while I made my ring-buying decision. When I went back mid-week to try the rings on again, the salesperson who helped me then was every bit as friendly and patient as Lisa had been, thoroughly sealing my high opinion of this place.
Anderson's is a family-run independent business -- the kind ALL of us should be supporting right now! -- and their commitment to personal, unsnooty customer service really showed in the experiences I had there. I would HIGHLY recommend this store to anyone (of any budget) looking for really nice jewelry sold by really nice people. -

During a closet cleanout, I gathered all my unwanted, broken bits and pieces of jewelry. One jewelry store, in Newton, did a very cursory appraisal and offered me about $150, claiming that a number of pieces were base metal, not gold or silver. On the advice of a friend, I went to Anderson's. Totally different experience. They carefully listed each item or group of items, and offered me a check for over $500 then and there. Glad I didn't take the first offer!

I would be very cautious when using this jewelry store. I bought an expensive Cyma watch from them in 2006 and have not had good luck with the watch or the service. For the first year or so the watch was great, but then after about a year, the watch started running around 20 min late. I would reset it, it would run on time for 2 weeks and then slowly start to run behind. I took it back to Anderson's, they replaced the battery and said it would be fine. Not fixed. I brought it back again. They said they would look again. I brought it back about 4 more times before they said they were going to send it back to Cyma. They said they sent it back to Cyma who replaced the movements and it should be all set. It's still not running on time and it's Jan 2011. When I called to get the paperwork showing they sent it to Cyma, they said they never sent it to Cyma. I am now having to pay to send the watch directly to Cyma on my own to see what the problem is because Anderson's could never help. Very frustrating. Not a jeweler I would ever use again.
UPDATE: I had my watch sent to Cyma directly and had to pay $200 to fix my watch. It was a very easy fix because Anderson's had lied to me and put in the wrong overhaul. Good news is that although I had to pay, it is now working like a charm. Bad news is that because Anderson's lied to me for basically 3 years I had to wait all this time to get it fixed, but alas I figured it out on my own. My review still stands that I would NOT recommend Anderson's.
