Very disappointed! Needing to find someone who could help me repair and replace a battery in a watch I love. Being excited about visiting a store my entire family used to visit and shop at on a first name basis. I remembered playing in the back side shop that is now a separate hair shop. To walking in, in my really casual pants, hair thrown up, no make, and sandals, not looking the "Old Metairie Type" ( but looks are deceiving and should never be used to judge.) Upon walking in there were couple customers who were being helped by owner and son but neither acknowledged me nor spoke 'hello, I will be right with you as soon as I get done with this customer.' I stood looking around while I patiently waited for either of them to be available so I could introduce myself to see if they remembered my family and how we used to come in there and see if they could help me with my watch repairs.

A month went bye with no word so I went in and was told that it should be back the next day. At that point, I realized that their repair work is outsourced. I did not get a call so I went back to the store on this past Saturday. The braclet was repaired to the tune of $72.00!! I was speechless that the price doubled but felt hostage to pay because of the value and sentiment of the braclet. All they offered me was "we are sorry". They should have been able to give me a more accurate estimate which would have given me the option of getting a second quote. Very...
