Schmidt Jewelers

We??re a small town, so reputation matters. The Schmidt??s have earned a reputation for honesty and fairness. They are well respected and also work hard for our community. Their store is lovely and they are always welcoming.

You will not find a more honest couple than Lucas and Blance Schmidt. They are fair in their pricing and all costs are told to you up front. Never has anyone been the victim of bait and switch tactics like so many other jewelry shops do.
Thank you Lucas and Blance for cleaning up the city of lying and cheating jewelry shops!

My experience with Schmidt Jewelers has been nothing short of exceptional. It's my secret weapon in giving special presents. I go to them for everything: from wedding gifts and personal jewelry ideas, to items that are once-in-a-lifetime pieces. It's a gem-of-a-store tucked right inside Ark City, Kansas.

The wonderful part is that they tell their customers, "I can get anything you want. Anything," and they mean it. I have challenged them on this front several times. Luke and Blanche helped me to select gifts that the recipients still wear every day because the pieces are so extraordinary.

Having lived and traveled many places I can tell you that there is vast opportunity to shop at "high end" retailers where they always pass the high end of price over to me as a buyer. To those retailers I am just another face. Not to mention that nowadays one cannot count on the big stores to stay open to service my purchases or answer my questions in the years to come.

For great customer service, quality, fairness, and exceptional value I have never come across two people who strive so hard to make sure that I find that unbelievable gift and that I am pleased with my purchase. Believe me; they ask. I trust Luke and Blanche to be my personal jewelers. Their attention to detail and kindness means something to me.

I checked with Schmidt Jewelers to find out how much an appraisal would be on a bracelet that I had. The attendant was very professional and was pleasant to deal with. I was not really pleased with the appraisal pricing though. They requested a higher price for the first appraisal and then dropped the price for subsequent evaluations. The initial price was quite a bit higher that the following appraisals. It was also much higher than another local jeweler who charges the same for all appraisals.

Schmidt?s is a locally owned and operated business and they have been serving our community since 1999. They offer layaway?s which is kind of nice. They have some really pretty jewelry pieces and will probably be tempted.

They are located on Summit Street and are very easy to find. Parking is not too difficult either.
