I had a lot of jewelry and coins I had no idea what I had or what to do with it. I was given Wendy’s name from a couple of friends. She and her staff are amazing! They really take care of their clients! They don’t BS you! I definitely will be going back and will also tell my friends and family about her! Her place is amazing! Plus she is a dog lover so that gets another plus in her favor with me!
