Russell Oliver is the lowest of the low. I had a terrible experience when I went to sell two rings. Since this was my first time selling jewelry, I went to two different buyers to compare what they would give me. The first guy said he would give $130.00, then $150.00 and when I thanked him and said I was going to do some comparison shopping, he said if you come back he could go to $200.00. One ring was $1000.00 retail and other I had no idea so I really didn't know what I could get for them. I went to Oliver's and he low balled at first(which is expected). I told him that the other buyer had offered as high as $200 and he told me to go back to the other guy and if I have any trouble, come back to him and he would give me $180. I went back to the first guy who lied through his teeth and claimed he had not told me anything about how much he would give me if I came back so off I went again to Oliver's. Keep in mind this is all within 30 minutes so neither of these bastards could forget what they had just said. I came into Oliver's and he said,"I'll give you $120 for both rings. My mouth dropped open. I reminded him that he had just offered me $180.00 fifteen minutes ago. He said I just playing the two buyers against each other and that wasn't nice. I reminded him again that he told me to come back if the other guy didn't follow through. I was enraged. What kind of person does that to another. As I walked out he kept shouting $120,$120, $120. I would go out of my way to tell anyone NOT to ever go to Oliver's. The man should be dragged off and put away. He has no class, no scruples and no conscience. AVOID him at all costs. No amount of money is worth being taken advantage of my this man. I do not recommend this place. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report as Spam |

The "BITCH" is back!! on line of course to discourage anyone from visiting or having and dealings with Russell Oliver. That man is aRUDE,ARROGANT, SON OF A B himself.He called me a "bitch" because I was helping an elderly recently widowed friend of mine who had brought in her cheriched jewelery to get appraised with the hope of getting some cash to help her pay rent. He rummaged through her jewellry with no care at all only to find a 16" 10kt gold chain that he offered ONLY 20 dollars for!!!!I was shocked and amazed that he only offered her that amount and I offered to give her the money myself for the chain. At that point he yelled for me to leave his store.I waited a few seconds and he then repeated it again to GET HER OUT!!only to find later that he called me a BITCH because I was vocal about how he was taking advantage of my 79 year old friend.DO NOT GO TO OLIVER JEWELLER. HE IS A CROOK WHO TAKES ADVANTAGE OF INNOCENT PEOPLE and should not be allowed to do business where he treates people like CRAP

I had the displeasure of meeting Russell Oliver and his son In their Eglinton Avenue store today. I was insulted, lied to and leered at - and, with that, I was treated better than some of the other unfortunate folks who wandered in. The Olivers know that the people walking through their door are in need, or else they wouldn't be there - and they use that to their advantage and profit. I wouldn't fault them for this alone - obviously there's a need for this line of business - but their manner is so wholly unkind and insensitive and brutal that it's difficult to wish them any sort of success. The best word I can find to describe their store is toxic.
