Kassab Jewelers

I DONT WRITE NEGATIVE REVIEWS but on the rare exception that a business screws me over. DO NOT TRUST KASSAB JEWLERS. None of their stores because their owner, Rana Kassab, doesn’t care about protecting your private personal data. Even if it’s of the most personal information. I bought a VERY EXPENSIVE Tacori anniversary ring for my ex wife. There were some mistakes made by Tacori when they fit the diamond to the ring so we had them fix it, which took several weeks. Then in less than a years my ex wife decided she didn’t like it any more and wanted to get a different one. So we took the first one back and upgraded to an even more expensive Tacori setting and bought a VERY expensive eternity band. Even though both rings were made to perfection this time after another year my ex wife decided she didn’t like this anniversary ring either and began researching a new ring to trade up on. Well, as you can imagine my ex was not just picky/difficult in her selection of rings but everything/everyone in her life. Because of this and so many other reasons, I left her. When I moved out I took the anniversary ring with me because I only had time to take a certain amount of property with me and I knew this ring, she didn’t appreciate anyways, would help offset the personal property I would be likely loosing in the divorce. I also knew that I’d be paying support for a very long time and unable to easily find a down payment on a ring for the woman I would eventually find, fall in love with and marry. It didn’t take long but I fell in love again with a wonderful person who had not only become my lover but my best friend. So after being together for a year and a half we got engaged and I used the ring as a trade in on this new ring. I tried to get a hold of Rana in the process but she would not return any of my phone calls. I imagined it was because she is busy being a mom working full time. When Rana’s father and owner of Kassab died, I expressed sincere condolences. When Rana’s downtown store was looted, I expressed my support for Kassab and my disgust for the looters, and reminded people I talked to that it was often those families who where minorities or immigrated to this country that were hardest hit by the riots/looting in Portland and other cities. Eventually we started working with Kevin, who did a fantastic job and was very professional in helping me and my new fiancée fin order a new Tacori ring/diamond, using my ex wife’s unappreciated ring as a trade in. My ex wife felt justified in having the ring she didn’t appreciate, even though her personal property value is 3 times mine, including the ring. Without the ring she would be 4 times my personal property value and she still owes me more property that was court ordered. And my ex took 50% of my retirement and is getting over 55% of my net and I’ll be paying her support until I retire, minimum 11years. Well, unsure how but I was recently served court paper work regarding personal property specifically the ring, and was SHOCKED to see MY EX WIFE HAD ATTACHED THE RECEIPTS FROM THE RING I BOUGHT FOR MY NEW FIANCÉE FROM KASSAB JEWELRY. I found out that Rana had given them to her. The receipts have personal information on them, phone number, address and my new fiancé’s name. No one knew at this time, not even my own kids, that I was getting engaged. Yet Rana took it upon herself to give this information freely to my ex wife. I’ve tried to call, text, email Rana but she is not responding to me. I let her know if she will explain to me how my ex coerced her in giving her my receipts, gives me an apology and will attempt to retract the receipts. Then I will not post negative reviews and report her to the BBB and other appropriate agencies for breaking the law, by sharing my personal property without my authorization or court order. Well as of this post the owner of Kassab jewelers still had not responded to me in any way. No response from the owner of a business who was happy to take tens of thousands of my hard earned dollars. She can even think I’m a piece of #%!* for leaving my ex wife but as the owner of a business you don’t get to share my personal information without making it right or having consequences.
