Today's Cargo Jewelry and Gifts Store, Old Town Alexandria, VA

Love this place! The ladies are so genuine and helpful. It is the one jewelry establishment where I don't feel like they are there to force sales on me. I can look around and buy nothing without a sales pitch or an "attack". Sometimes, I come in on a mission and they will spend two hours with me to find EXACTLY what I want, allowing me to try items I choose and hunting down those I haven't seen. Often, they find the right piece for me over my choices. I go to them first, before purchasing online, now, because I always leave their store brilliantly happy with a new sparkly and for far less than I would have spent online for lesser quality. They have vintage pieces that are incredible from fashion to platinum, and new pieces for all ages in standard styles and many exquisite designs that I would never see in a chain store. They have appraised family inheritances, giving me history of the piece, what it would currently sell for, while offering to clean it and an opportunity to find a buyer. I adore this store and those working there. I HIGHLY recommend a visit for all price ranges, whether you are just window shopping, looking for bead, fashion, vintage, new, silver, gold, gems... this is your store. If they don't have it, which is not usually likely, they will order it for you or refer you to a store they know carries the item for which you are specifically looking. Thank you, ladies!

Late leaving a review, but Carla and the folks at Today's Cargo were great for me. I needed an engagement ring special ordered with a quick turn around and they made it happen. Very helpful throughout the process and loved the finished product. My fiancé also came here to get my ring after and was happy with his service too, we can't recommend TC enough!
