I have been spending my time writing for profit instead of sitting home reviewing restaurants for the universe to absorb into bliss.

I am only writing today because I had a truly wonderful, enlightening, spiritually satisfying experience here. No, not the out of body nonsense that some may have come to expect after watching Demi and Patrick in Ghost, but the kind that gives you hope that people actually can be kind and unselfish when you least expect it.

I was searching for a present for my, soon to be mother in law, when I came upon this unique jewelry store, the building standing proudly in what can only be described as a tribute to the worlds great banks. The arches and pillars gave me hope that there was to be a selection like no other inside, and I wasn't disappointed.

When I entered, I noticed a sea of people, buying and selling, slurping on freshly made coffee, and browsing happily around the many displays. The inside was calming, the lighting soothing and the low hum of chitter chatter had a quieting effect on me. With all of this, I heard one voice, that of a three year old, crying that she wanted to leave, her mother in the middle of purchasing what looked to be about twenty dollars worth of charms for the little ones bracelet. As the mother hurried to complete her transaction, the store manager excused himself from the desk, quite to the dismay of the mother that was pulling her credit card out in anticipation of a speedy exit. About thirty seconds later, he emerged with a beautiful teddy bear as a gift, an offering to the gods, well at least to the little one that needed something to quiet her tears. An instant calm once again filled the room as the mother and daughter finished what I would describe as a truly unexpected buying experience.

And what about my buying experience? I will save that for another day. Rest assured, I wasn't presented with a teddy bear, nor did I shed any tears that day. I did however find peace while shopping for a friend.

If you are looking for a good jeweler then this is the place. I have been selling my jewelry lately and I have gotten the best prices here I believe. Nice store and good service.

I've known the store manager, Kurt Reichert, and shopped at CoinMart for years. They've always been honest, reputable dealers with a unique assortment of beautiful coins and jelewry. While I've shopped in other stores, I've always returned to CoinMart for jewelry that "everybody else" doesn't have. When I've wanted something special (earrings, a necklace or a ring) designed, CoinMart has always been able to deliver beautifully. I've never been disappointed with the pieces I've purchased! Thank you, CoinMart!

Well as soon as i step into coin mart i felt discourage and offended. When you go into coin mart make sure that you go well dress because if you go in there with jeans and a T-shirt they are sure to turn their heads. I would not ...

I think Coin Mart Jewelry is the best store in San Diego. I have shopped there for about five years now and purchased a couple very nice pieces of jewelry. The staff are very attentive, at first you think they are high pressure sales but they are actually very friendly and helpful. A couple of times I dint know what to get my wife for Christmas and there was always someone there to give me ideas. I have seen the way other stores operate and this has to be the best store in San Diego. My wife's ring came from this store and we have never had any complaints with them. I have also bought a couple gifts for my wife there and I am happy because everything I have pick up my wife has loved. I have sent several friends down and I have also gotten $25 gift certificates from them for the refferals so if anyone wants to go down there email me and I can get another $25 gift certificate. I would tell anyone to check it out.
