This place was AMAZING and they gave me a great deal on two flats of rad stuff! Randy and the staff were very helpful l

Cory, in the sports collectibles, knows his stuff. Very good prices. It's better than buying on eBay, of course, if you live around the area.

I highly recommend taking your jewelry here to get repaired. One reason I like it is because they don't send it out, they repair in store! It usually takes about a week which I think is great! Their prices are very reasonable. I took three necklaces in for repairs, and two of the they said were easy fixes and did it right on the spot. They did not charge me. I have been taking my jewelry here for years, so has my mother and grandmother. I will continue to take my precious pieces here. The staff is always helpful, and kind.

Horrible experience was told they could not leave their space when asking for a price on something the other lady came by and the lady that said she couldn't move didn't even acknowledge that I needed help

This is the best place to go if you're buying or selling anything used or pawning items. It's so much more than that, though. It's like a small museum with all the unique pieces and artifacts on display. The staff is friendly and very honest. It's a great family owned business, and I highly recommend them.

I purchased on GunBroker a 1975 Colt Cobra from these guys that was beautifully displayed with no issues indicated in the listing. I waited for it to arrive and picked it up from my FFL. I got home and opened the cylinder which flopped open and then would not close? I messaged Ramz's explaining that there was an issue with the gun and the cylinder latch was not catching or locking into place, I had in essence bought a $1500 paperweight!
I spoke to a Joe Fields from the store and sent him a video showing the cylinder was not working properly and expressed a desire to keep the gun as he was going to ask the consigner who supplied the gun to them if he would pay for the repair?
I shipped the gun off to the Colt Custom Shop requesting an estimate of what the problem was and the cost to repair it?
I got a call back from them as they are the only place to have Colt work done. They explained that the gun had been refinished and someone had not done such a great job with it, The cylinder locking mechanism for the yoke needed to be raised up as the amount of dreck & dirt on the inside of the gun over the past 49 years, it appeared it had never been opened or cleaned for that matter.
I contacted Ramz's to explain the cost to fix the gun and get it into working condition was $690.
I did not speak to Joe Fields this time but the manager who was argumentative and verbally just a dirtbag. He starts screaming at me you had work done before we approved it.
This was the furthest thing from the truth as the work had not been done yet.
Then I spoke to Chad Ramz and I am going to take a wild guess here but I suppose Chad Ramz the owners son hired the sales manager as they both had the same persona and attitude over the phone, THIS is not our fault you must have done something and we never authorized this repair. Typical narcissistic personality. So in hindsight if you are buying something from Ramz's Emporium and your not dealing with Joe Fields then be forewarned you are dealing with lying dirtbags who only care about winning and nothing else. They sold a firearm that wouldnt fire. Is that still a firearm? or did I just pick up a $1800 paperweight?
I ended up paying the repair from the Custom shop myself because now I can share with the world how Ramz's Emporium actually does business. Not so great.
Below are 2 pictures, the first one is from them on there GB listing. Claiming the gun was perfect and ready to go.
I wonder if they took the necessary 4 minutes to open the gun or not? hhhmmmm?
The 2nd picture is from the Colt Custom Shop who is by far the most honest & reputable place in the country to deal with when it comes to Colts, I trust no one more about this subject than them!
It would appear from the 2nd picture that maybe this gun has some issues? I will let be the judge?
In closing if you are planning on buying anything from Ramz's Emporium be forewarned it might not be as depicted!
