Since I once recommended, I want to put out a warning that many people have been having bad experiences with Twin City jewelers on Clifton. I would not use them anymore.

Are you referring to repairs or purchasing new jewelry?

The stories I heard were regarding repairs. They used be very highly regarded and honest, unfortunately, something seems to have changed in a big way.

There are many stories of them stealing and swapping jewelry. I have been hearing them for a good few years.

That's terrible. No one can get the police on their case?

My DIL said her neighbor's grandmother was there alone and they took all her jewelry to the back to clean and then made as if why are you here? How can I help you? I don't know the end of the story. Hopefully she called the police and the cameras were active... They are  tight with the police as they have always called them when people try to sell stolen stuff to them. Very strange.

Is there any place in Lakewood that could fix the screen of a Lenovo laptop without charging me too many arms and legs? The hinge is coming off and the screen is separating. (Or a good DIY guide?)

They have multiple salespeople, so it's very possible one of them asked how they can help while not knowing she gave in her jewelry.

It was the same salesperson. She is a grandmother but not senile.
