Does anyone know what is going on w/ Neil Bruce Jeweler in Jewelers Row? I bought an engagement ring there in Nov and I need to get it resized. I stopped by today and there is a sign on the door saying closed until Jan 7th...obvisously they haven't opened. Neil got sick right around the time I purchased the ring, does anyone know how he is doing? Will they be reopening?

I was in there a couple of months ago. Neil was in the hospital at the time and his wife and other employee were trying to hold down the shop. I think he had a serious infection and then some complications but as I understood it, he was doing better. I know a good friend of his and I will have to ask how Neil is doing.....

Take it to Sermania Jewelers 1700 e. Passyunk Ave. Great guy and he does most of the work for samson st. He worked on samson st. for 25yrs and just opened a small store a few yrs. ago.

OR....because this was placed in the OC/SH section...let's recommend one of our local jewelers like McGarry's on 2nd & Vine (w/free parking).

I was looking on here and noticed that people were wondering what to do with their jewelry that they bought at Neil Bruce Jewelers. Well I work for Max Weiner Jewelers on 805 Sansom Street, and we have Dominic Giacobbe from Neil Bruce's working here. He was the lovable man behind the counter at Neil Bruce's for many years. We are happy to have him come aboard with his extensive knowledge and experience as well as his wonderful personality. Max has stated that we will clean and check anyone's jewelry that was bought from Neil Bruce's free of charge, so come in and check us out!
