What is so great about these guys? My grilfriend has waited for these guys to sell jewelry for her for many many months. They won't even call her back! I even heard her friend say...

Editorial review from Citysearch 11/12/2013

Excellent Service!!! Found them via citysearch. They were very helpful on the phone as I was having issues with AAA insurance. They offerd to help and gave me suggesstion on the phone (no cost) before i had to go in because AAA was being unreasonable. The process was painless and the cost very reasonable. I highly recommend them for anyone that is looking for a high-class professional organization!\r \r Steve more

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/23/2013

Good service. I was having a hard time finding a jewelry appraiser, and I got the name of these guys from a couple stores in the area. I'm glad I found them. Very professional, very informative about my jewelry. I recommend them if your looking to get an appraisal for insurance. They made the process very easy, and I got the document fast. Definitely recommend them for anyone who wants to get their jewelry appraised. more

Very helpful 1/6/2011

I had my ring appraised today by Todd and he was very helpful and professional. He explained everything to me and let me look at my ring through the microscope which was nice. They also extensively cleaned all of my rings (even the ones I wasn't appraising) for free and checked them all out to make sure nothing was loose/damaged. My experience was very good and the price was right too. I will definitely be going to them in the future. more

Exactly what I needed. 12/17/2010

World Gemological Services is customer-oriented and boasts a successful appraisal process. Whitney helped me with both of my appraisals and she was the epitome of a professional. She made a point to inform me of my diamond's main characteristics and other useful knowledge about the industry. I felt secure and at ease during the entire process which was also less time consuming that I had thought. Thanks. more

Friendly, Helpful, Great Experiance! 11/22/2010

I was looking to get my item insured, but was very nervous about leaving my wifes ring anywhere. These guys put me at ease. They do the appraisal right on front of you, and you dont have to leave it with them. They showed me the stone under the microscope, and gave me a great diamond education at the same time. more

The wife loved it... All that matters! 8/17/2010

Was recommended by a family member to use WGS for a wedding ring, and it was worth the drive from Carlsbad. more

Compare and you'll always choose WGS 1/11/2010

Mike and his staff are all friendly and knowledgeable about anything to do with jewelry. You ask and it's answered on the spot, none of this I get back to you kind of stuff. Mike has a wealth of experience for being so young and his connections within the gemological industry are amazing. Overall my wife and I couldn't be happier with our various pieces of jewelry we have purchased over the years. Anything you need they can do. We had my wife?s ring appraised and resized. All done with the type of professionalism you can always expect from World Gemological Services. Pros: Good Location and they treat you like family Cons: None more

Great Service, Great Knoledge 8/28/2009

I went in with my Grandmothers ring, and these guys were able to tell me all sorts of history and knowledge about it. They sat with me for a long time answering all of my questions, and now I know all sorts of neat things about diamonds and its history. My girlfriend was floored when I told her all the history about it. I would highly recommend these guys, especially if you want to know things about older thing you have. It was a great experience! Pros: nice people, very informative Cons: none more

Pros: kind, patient, reasonable Cons: none more

Best Experience Ever! 7/16/2009

I can not say enough great things about World Gemologist Services. I recently purchased my fianc?e?s engagement there and the service I received was outstanding. Michael Cortez worked with me to find the exact setting and stone that I was looking for. I had something unique in mind and he found and brought in a setting that matched my description exactly. Of all of the jewelers I visited, this was the friendliest, most low-stress, and most knowledgeable. They truly go out of their way to create the perfect ring for you and they do so while respecting your budget and being perfectly forthright and honest. The owner told me many times to go shop other places; he welcomed competition like no other. I know that I'll send my friends and family their way. Pros: Amazing Serivce and Price! Cons: NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! more

Terrific Experience Purchasing an Engagement Ring and Band 7/16/2009

I was really pleased with the process at World Gemological Services. I went in with a pretty good idea of what I wanted and they were happy to make something unique. They warned me that the stone I was looking for might take a week to get, but they were actually able to get it for me in just 2 days! Not only was the service fast, but the price was cheaper than what I could find for lower quality stones on Blue Nile. It is hard to argue with that. Pros: Best prices, friendly service more

Great service at World Gemological Services 3/6/2009

In response to the last review, I have not had a better experience consigning my ring at World Gemological Services. I was not only able to consign and sell my ring but also got a great deal form Mike on another piece of jewelry that was on consignment which I love! Thanks Mike! more

Best price and quality I could find for our wedding rings 2/2/2009

So I had done my research before commiting to a jeweler to make mine and my fiances wedding bands. I am really glad I found World Gemological Services from a friend. Mike, Hyochin and Whitney all worked with me to get me the exact rings we had wanted, at a pretty darn good price. I really thought it would have been thousands more. more
