Amazing service Mallards very impressed

Great service, fast delivery, also the item
Was exactly as presented on the site as it looks in person.
I love mallards, I have been shopping there for over 20 years, they only sell quality items of jewellery, anytime i am looking to invest in something gold I go to mallards.
Also wanted to say it is nice to see that they have updated their website and offer customers to pay in instalments,
instead of fronting up the whole price in one
Go, nice touch.

Didn’t feel that the staff we overly helpful/friendly bearing in mind the cost of my watch purchase, (same watch in Nottingham branch £100 cheaper) Also one member broke the watch box outer front flap which my wife saw, I didn’t but repaired it when I got home, as such didn’t trust them to shorten the bracelet so did it myself

Hi Stefan,
Apologies for a longer than usual wait for a reply. We take all of our reviews very seriously and so I have been collating information to fully address your concerns.
We are very sorry you feel that our colleagues were not overly helpful/friendly, this is a surprise considering they offered to hold the watch out from sale for you as you were on a time limit with an impending appointment (the nature of which I will not disclose here). This is not a normal practice but one we felt would be helpful at the time as the payment wasn't going through and making for a stressful situation for yourself and your wife.
The difference in price between your watch purchase and the one in Nottingham is due to the Nottingham watch having undated papers which means it could be any year from 2018 up to now, but the one you purchased had a date newer than this.
It is an unfortunate fact in the pre-owned watch market, that the boxes are more often than not, in a less than ideal condition. I understand that this box could have been in a delicate condition however we do not feel we added to it's condition and can only apologise for not showing this earlier.
I believe your conversation involved details of you doing some watch repairs etc. and you commented from first knowing the watch was too big you were wanting to alter the watch yourself so we feel it's a little harsh to say you didn't trust our colleagues.

You will always be welcomed in store should you wish to change your mind about shortening the bracelet or if we can help you in any other way.

Amazingly good value eternity ring repair!

Having been quoted by a different jewellers £800 for an eternity ring repair, it came as an absolute relief to hear that Mallard could do the necessary repair for a fraction of that cost. They exceeded my expectations on how long it might take, and the ring came back looking superb. Marlene and her team in the Nottingham branch looked after me perfectly. I cannot fault their customer service, and also the fantastic job the repairers have done, and at such a reasonable price. Thank you. This ring is now fixed and ready in time to give back to my daughter for her 21st Birthday.

I had a fantastic experience at this jeweler! I brought in a delicate chain that I had bought my boyfriend and it had broken the first time worn and I was absolutely gutted but the 2 ladies behind the counter reassured me and fixed it quickly and expertly. You can't even tell where the break was! The service was friendly and professional and I will certainly be using them again and again. I highly recommend them for any jewelry repairs!! 🥰

Don't pawn your diamond jewellery with Mallard jewellers.

Hi there
I had pawned my rings in Leicester branch of Mallard happened to pay them by my card I requested on collection in afew days which the lady agreed on phone. I called them that I was going to come and collect my item the lady was saying they will close by 4.30pm and that call was made by 2.30pm so she was insisting to know what time will I reach but I never gave her time and straight off reached the shop they gave my rings but since I had another issue with the chain I previously bought which snapped 3rd day and they had no resolution to which I asked them do you never want me to come back ever to your shop?
It was a silver chain buying from same shop and take back price she quoted was 5 pounds for a 24 inch silver chain shame I never expected this one from Mallard.
I took my jewellery just took out one ring and wore rest I just kept in my purse on reading home I saw 2 diamonds were missing from my sapphire diamonds ring and I got so upset about it I have left a contract message for them to reply ASAP. I want my 2 diamonds back in my ring as I trusted Mallard whilst pawning. I want Mallard to resolve this issue as well as my silver chain issue.if they don't resolve I will escalate the issue further.

Hi Shaheen,

Apologies you have felt the need to leave this review. I have investigated all the details you have mentioned and feel this review has some inconsistencies that I would like to address.

The pawnbroking department in all our stores, closes at 5pm. However, so our customers do not feel rushed or on a time limit, we will often ask for you to visit by 4.30pm to allow plenty of time for your transaction.

On your original pawnbroking contract, a Manager has clearly noted, as is required by our company at the time of accepting your items for loan, that the item in question has missing stones. Should you wish to have the stones replaced we are able to obtain a free quotation from the jeweller for you, but this will be chargeable as this is how this item arrived to us, and did not happen whilst in our possession.


The chain was repaired the first time; however, we were unaware it had broken a second time in another place until your visit a few days ago. This item came with a 1-year guarantee for manufacturing faults so we would always ask our customers to let us know as soon as possible of any faults so we can rectify them immediately.

Again, should you want this chain repaired we can offer a quotation from our jeweller. I understand we offered this to you when you visited but it was declined.

Should you change your mind regarding the quotes, please feel free to bring your items in so we can help you.

Fantastic and reasonably priced repairs!

couldn't recommend Mallard Jewellers enough for jewellery repairs!! i recently had a ring mended and had an emerald replaced in another. all staff i spoke to in the shop and over the phone we're friendly, professional and welcoming. the jewellery repairs came back perfectly and were very very reasonably priced, i was expecting to spend about double the price. will definitely be using Mallards again - thank you ☺️

Went into the Nottingham store to find an engagement ring without really knowing what I wanted. The service help and guidance from Gabrielle and Maz was absolutely amazing. The knowledge and support from both ladies made our experience perfect. Being made to feel comfortable with budget, understanding what we wanted without being made to feel pressured or judged, then providing beautiful options was perfect. I'd gone from searching and not finding anything, to having a choice of 3, I absolutely loved. Buying from this jewellers showed me you get a personalised experience you don't get from the big named stores. It's not about the dazzle and lights, it's about the jewellery and what you want. These ladies were just brilliant with someone who was so out of their depth, being patient and understanding. We will definitely be going back for wedding rings. Thank you so much to both of you, I love my ring!

I purchased a pre-owned watch from this company which had a few minor scratches, I have got to say this was without exception the best customer service I have ever encountered, they took the watch back had it polished and added a new manufactured strap free of charge, then had it re-delivered but importantly they kept me informed at every stage. I would highly recommend using this company and would like to say thank you to Mallards particularly, Andrea and Sarah you have been a pleasure dealing with.
