Austins Pawn Shop & Variety - Toccoa (GA)

carolyn robinson Excellent, excellent customer service and personality. I would recommend everyone to come in. Also, excellent selections.

LaMara Davidson Over the past few years, I’ve collected some truly beautiful, high-quality pieces from Turpin’s—including a timeless pearl necklace and an exquisitely designed moonstone ring. This past weekend, while my fiancé and I were working in the mountains, he proposed—and the ring from Turpin’s was absolutely perfect. Phil truly helped us find the one to seal the deal. Turpin’s is a true gem in Dillard, GA.

Jane Joneser What is Masina Diamonds? Nothing less than AMAZING! I cannot say enough positive and wonderful things about this small, family-owned business, the quality of their jewelry, diamonds, and top notch customer service. I was looking for a very specific style of eternity band (rounds on the outside and baguettes in the middle). When I was unable to find anything in local jewelry stores I began doing internet research and thats how I found Masina. They had EXACTLY what I was looking for. Masina Diamonds is in Georgia and I live in the mid-Atlantic region so it seemed strange to buy something of such value without seeing it in person. This was a non-issue for Masina. Not only did Star send me photos and videos of someone modeling the ring, she was patient, knowledgeable, kind, and there was never any pressure to make a sale. Instead I felt empowered to navigate the process and take as much time as I needed. Masinas prices were extremely fair and reasonable compared to other jewelers with similar rings but inflated prices for less carat weight and quality. The vibe the other jewelers gave made me feel icky like I was prey. After several months of thinking, I reached back out to Star to begin the purchase process which couldnt have been easier and more secure. I am extremely grateful for the stellar customer service, answers to questions, and patience for several months while I made a decision. I would definitely recommend Masina to anyone shopping for diamonds or fine jewelry no matter their location. After my shopping experience with them, it’s apparent Masina is a subject matter expert and I feel proud to be one of their consumers. If you look on their website, theres a reason theyve won so many awards and accolades. Family is everything and I recognize that Masina is a small, family-owned business and to me, that means everything. The ring I purchased was for a commitment ceremony my partner and I did recently while away on vacation in the Caribbean. He wanted to purchase a ring I would love and wear not only as a symbol of our commitment to each other, but also our commitment together to Jesus and God. The ring I chose from Masina is just shy of 5 carats of natural round and baguette diamonds. To say "I LOVE it" is a severe understatement. It is stunning and will someday belong to our daughter. Thank you. Thank you. A million times thank you to Star and Masina Diamonds. Its truly a first class, five star business and you dont need to be in Georgia to purchase. Beautiful!

Britt S This shop is such a fun mix of new and used treasures. It’s set up with a ton of unique booths, each with its own vibe and collection, so there’s always something different to discover. If you’re into home decor, antiques, or just love a good browse, this place is a goldmine. Highly recommend stopping by, you’ll never know what you’ll find!

Angie Levens We came across Martinez Gold, while visiting Augusta from Wisconsin. Love the staff at this store, they were completely transparent about the estate jewelry and that it was "used". They have great integrity and are such a wonderful crew. They were helpful patient and knowledgeable. We were blessed to have come across this store.

Chelsea McCall 10/10 recommend!! Fast and easy. No complaints. Will be back no doubt.

Amy Mese I went into this store this weekend. I was looking for something in particular and the KS store in Jacksonville told me they were out of stock and would not be making this item anymore. I went into my local store and Kaitlynn told me she thought they were also out of stock, but she would double check the back for me. She found the rose gold Rayne I was looking for, along with the Danielle earrings at the color bar. She even went on a hunt around the store looking for the stone I was looking for. She was so attentive, nice and helpful. If it was not for her, I would not have got exactly what I was looking for— which was the limited addition pink abalone stones. I just wanted them to know how lovely she is. I wish all KS employees were as helpful as her!
