Silver Coyote — Local services in Santa Fe

There are too many beautiful jewerly stores to waste your time on this place. The owner, Tiger, and his various family members, who run the place offer to be of assistance. This is now my seventh month of being told repeatedly that my specific order, already paid for by the way, would be mailed.

I'm going to try calling the credit card company to see if I can get a refund since I can't get a hold of...

I have visited Santa Fe many times, typically buying any jewelry directly from the artists. During a visit last year I bought 5 pieces from this place -the man was kind, guaranteeing the jewelry-stating if “anything” happens to it they would fix it. Well a stone fell out of an earring …and the man at the store today (not the man who helped me with my purchase last year) who when I told I didn’t have the stone because it unglued and fell out, just said, “I don’t know what to tell you sweetheart”.
