254.0. "Looking for a reputable jeweler." by GOLF::BOLAND () Fri Nov 16 1990 09:42

    
    
    I am in the process of looking for a local goldsmith.  Someone who can 
    alter a ring size while I wait.  I have spoken with Ocean Cane in 
    West Concord and was wondering if anyone knows of them or of another
    reputable goldsmith/jeweler in the area.

You could try the Cat's Paw in Concord.  I was very pleased with their
work.

    There is a goldsmith in Maynard, directly across from the Mill, next to
    Maynard Pizza House.  Can't think of the store's name off the top of my
    head, but he does excellent work.

254.5One man's opinionOLDJON::WATSONSome like it notTue Nov 20 1990 11:0416
Isn't it a shame we can praise local merchants without fear of retribution,
but let someone give an unbiased, factual account of a real life experience
and suddenly there's the potential for libel?

It seems to me if someone has had a bad experience they should be allowed
to say so.  I fail to see why the offending merchant should feel he should
have an opportunity to defend himself here.  If the account is presented in
an unbiased manner, it speaks for itself and ought to be able to stand by
the facts as stated.

I'm not trying to challenge or question Corporate policy.  I think I
understand the reasoning behind it.  For the benefit of all employees, though,
there should be a method whereby one can forwarn others of any potential
problems that may arise based on past experiences.

  Richard Goddard made my wedding ring.  After nine years of constant use
  it's as beautiful as ever.

254.7Another vote for Richard GoddardULTRA::DONAHUEFri Jan 11 1991 13:4113
    My wedding band was my husband's grandmother's, passed on to my by his
    mother. It is at least 75 years old.

    The ring had been sized for my mother-in-law years ago and the jeweler
    "butchered" it. Richard Goddard brought it back to life. He sized it to
    me and you can't tell where the work was done. 

    He also made my husband's wedding band to match.

    I found him to do quality craftsmanship at reasonable prices.
