Another location to avoid. Criminals can have their way.

Is this a franchise operation? If corporate owned, seems like intentional discrimination against a large group of potential customers would be a centralized decision, not one you leave up to the manager of each location.

What do you all think of adding a spin to the typical "protest" letter by saying that you really love their merchandise and would like to continue shopping there, but unfortunately you can no longer legally enter their premises. Then follow up by politely asking them to let you know if they change their policy so that you can resume doing business there. I think the ask for notice might help drive the point home a bit.

We purchased quite a bit of jewelry from Jared prior to me getting my CHL, and we still have to go there to have our diamonds cleaned. Last time we went, I knew about the sign, but went anyway. I got out of the car with my wife, and as we approached the door, I made sure there was a salesman looking at us, and told my wife I couldnt go in. When she asked why, I pointed to the sign, and stood outside the door as she proceeded to go in and drop off our jewelry, waiting for a salesman to come and invite me in so I could express my displeasure for their policy. If it wasnt for the fact that we already have a credit account there, and already own several diamonds warrantied by them, I probably wouldnt go back. But, they actually have good prices, and their warranty and customer service is fantastic.

most any store will clean if you "window" shop while you are there. however this tactic works, so it's not advised.

Here is the e-mail that I just sent to Jared's

I have been a loyal Jared's customer for many years and I purchased jewelry for both my wife and myself from your store near Southcenter in Tukwila, WA. I recently moved to Texas and I note that several of your locations in this state are marked with signs prohibiting the lawful carry of concealed weapons. The right of citizens to keep and bear arms has recently been affirmed by 2 separate Supreme Court decisions, and I find it very troubling that your company believes that restricting this fundamental right is a moral or ethical course of action.

Please let me know if you change your policy in this regard so that I can continue doing business with you in the future.

Yeah, I'm in the market for one of those expensive pieces of metal and stone every female dreams of soon and i told my counterpart that i will not look nor buy there because of that sign.

I know a jewelry dealer who is pretty supportive of RKBA. But you gotta PM me if you need more info....

With ours, it is part of the warranty, and as noted, their warranty and customer service has been fantastic. On a few occasions, my wife has lost a chip diamond, and in one occasion, one of the larger stones, out of her engagement ring. Each time, they gladly replaced it, no questions asked. I lost one of my diamond ear rings (the entire ear ring, not just the diamond) throwing a bag of mulch over my shoulder one day. When I went to Jared and explained what happened, they unfortunately did not have any of that particular ear ring in stock, so I gave them my lone survivor, and they gave me a new pair for 1/2 of what I originally paid, which worked out to about 1/4 of the price of the new pair. The only condition to their warranty is that every 6 months, the jewelry must be brought in to them for cleaning and inspection.

Kays and Jared's are owned by the same corporation. There are many other large jewelery retailers that do not post, Zale's is one of them that I have seen, and they are based in Texas.

FYI: Zales, Gordon's Jewelers, and Piercing Pagoda are owned by the same company.

FWIW, I was in Spence Diamonds recently (Houston location) and they did not post.
