insane evil con man.
I entered this filthy looking "jewellery store" with a friend as we were in search of a vintage gold watch. we were greeted by a bearded, filthy and unstable looking man behind the counter. We personally didn't care as we were just wanting to see the watches rather than the unsightly atmosphere of the store. The overall attitude of the man started out very positive but slowly shifted as he became paranoid because we took our time browsing. He made small talk trashing the owner referring to him as "a bored old man who needs some hobbies" He then began rudely making false accusations that I was photographing his merchandise. initially, I took it as a joke because we had been extremely polite and kind. Next, he threatened us saying there were cameras within the store and that we were out of luck because he admitted in his paranoid state that all his watches were knock-offs from China. We were in shock and disbelief as we left the store. We had never been so insulted in our lives. It is a pretty hefty accusation to say that someone is "scoping the place for a robbery" HOW DARE YOU. We left in disgust and frustration because no one deserves this kind of sick treatment. I don't know whether it is organized crime or just a con business but I have heard many a time that this place ruins and steals jewellery and also provides fraudulent service(giving old watch batteries, damaging heirlooms etc.) DON'T YOU DARE accuse ANYONE of trying to steal your garbage. All I can say is to stay away from this place for your own good. I"ll be reporting these selfish scumbags to the authorities.
