I grew up with very little money. As an adult, I make good money but I choose to live like someone with little money. Thus, no fancy clothes, cars or jewelry. I buy my clothes from JCPenny and have an economy car so I'm certainly not a bum. Just, normal. I went to Medawars to have an old ring of my grandmothers made into something for myself. For that, I was willing to go the extra mile monetarily speaking as I wanted it to be very special. I walked into the store with my jeans and ski jacket on and talked to an older "gentleman" whom I believe may have been Mr. Medawar himself. I was not greeted with a smile. I was not greeted with a hello. He walked out and stared at me. I gave him the ring and told him I wanted to make a new ring out of it. His response??? "Well it starts at $1500 just to get a mold started." Once again I was treated to the stare. He acted like he was annoyed to have me in his presense. I have absolutely no doubt that had I walked in with an expensive outfit on, decked out in massive gold jewelry, the scenario would have been different. To say he was pompous is an understatement. I don't care how well made his jewelry is, I wouldn't recommend this store to ANYONE unless they want to support someone who is blatantly discriminatory against those he feel are "beneath" him. I hope the owner of that store does read this entry because I want him to know that he missed out on a very large sale and hopefully many more as well. Shame on you. EVERYONE deserves respect upon entering your establishment. EVERYONE.
Pros: NONE
Cons: I can't say anything but bad based on the discrimatory nature of the establishment
