The Company Located in Elkhart Indiana is practicing poor business tactics, they are ripping customers off on prices and using threats and intimidation against other United States Jewelers. As a Certified Jeweler myself and Paiget Dealer I would avoid doing business with individuals who are 1. over charging 2. attacking other dealers and sellers.

I suggest you avoid this business located in Elkhart Indiana and select a reputable Custom Jeweler, as all designs they make are availble via the internet with a careful search.

Thanks 

A Concerned Fellow Jeweler

Lisa777 (or Lori) how is one store related to the other?

Well they are not. We filed the copyright claim against "Temple of the Ancient dragon jewelers" for copyright infringement. They simply copied our designs for profit and were upset we brought charges against them. The alleged overcharging and attacking fellow jewelers is just false. Remember, on the internet you can write anything you like and disguise your true identity. I hope this clears things up for you. Thanks!
