John W. Griffin of Fierce Drag Jewels is a very shady jeweler in the pageant industry.  Sent him a beautiful brand new full rhinestones crown valued at $350 to be embellished with extra rhinestones - Mr John W. Griffin received my crown in March 2014 and then called me with an estimate of $600.00 which I paid upfront utilizing PayPal though he also offers to take credit cards directly over the phone.  I am so THANKFUL that I didn't give this man my credit card number.  Total fraud.  He guaranteed me the crown by May 5th 2014 !  The entire month of May came and went and NO crown.  I was gagging.  I began contacting him relentlessly and all I got was one excuse after another and no crown!  Unbelievable!  Then when I reported him to PayPal he began a series of nasty, evil, threatening text messages, emails, and phone calls. KooKoo...tick tick boom.  

It became a huge nightmare for me!   He claimed that he shipped my crown off in June but he didnt have a tracking number to give me.  I was so polite and at the mercy of this crooked thief.  The more I asked for a tracking number the more excuses I got.  My crown finally arrived at 4:43pm on Wed June 4 and was busted up broken - missing rhinestones - and a disasterous mess.  The box was not even labeled fragile !  It was packed like left over box of old rice from the Chinesse Delivery.  I have had to take the crown to be repaired... it has been a nightmare.  Warning All Pageant Girls and Guys... I have since learned that John W. Griffin has a repeat behavior pattern of dealing with his clients in this unprofessional and shady manner.  Furthermore, found out he left Lexington, KY because he allegedly stole antique jewelry and investigators are searching.  He makes appearances at National Pageants in Dallas and Chicago and he is a cross dressing performer.  But he mostly gets clients off the internet.  Very very very shady.  Beware Sistesr... if you see him or his name turn around and run the other way.  Run for your life!  PS... Will Never Refer anone to this transvestite cross dressing impostanator.

This report is CRAZY

AUTHOR: USA PAGEANT MAN - ()

POSTED: Thursday, June 12, 2014

Having worked with Mr. Griffin and his company for many years, I find this report completely disturbing.  John is a consummate professional and has always taken great care to produce great work for me and my pageants. Quality jewelry, EVEN COSTUME jewelry takes time, and John has always been up front with me about his time lines and when they may not be able to be met. This "consumer" report reeks of what we call "drag drama" and reading it you can clearly see the individual who posted it has alternative motives and is trying to cause Mr. Griffin and his company undue harm.

The last portion about stolen jewelry and an investigation underway also just reeks of a petty "drama" starting person. From dealings with John for over 8 years I can honestly say I have never seen or heard such a huge pile of crap as these obvious assaults on his character or product.

Not to mention the fact he is the official jeweler to the 4 top national pageants in the Country and for a major television production. Whomever wrote this post obviously has a personal agenda, and this post should be removed for completely unfounded and rediculous cause.

I think whoever wrote this ripoff report is not being truthfull I have been doing business with Fierce Drag Jewels for years and have ALWAYS gotten beautiful quality products.  I have always been treated with respect by Mr. Griffen and have received my custom made jewelry on time or rather within the quoted time frame and has given me VERY reasonable prices. 

This to me sounds like a person with an axe to grind it is evident with the name calling and bitterness that this Kentucky drag queen is spewing. I mean really resorting to calling him a crossdresser and Transvestite and a scam artist when the person you are talking about is a very established performer and national title holder !

In conclusion I would just like to tell anyone who is reading this rubbish gossip that it is simply NOT TRUE!!!
