LDC Jewelers Manufacturing and Repair — Local services in Salinas

I found Doug's shop online when I was researching jewelers who could resize my engagement ring. My ring had already been sized once but, it needed to go down another size. The first jeweler I used outsourced the repair work, it took a solid week and they charged me $150-- having your ring stripped away for that long is not fun when you are newly engaged.

Within a couple of days, he called and gave me an update on how things were going, and I had my new ring in just over a week. I am extremely happy with it!! He also looked at my wedding ring while I was in there and showed me I was on the verge of losing a diamond and fixed that as well. He was nice, professional and friendly. I will definitely...
