Gregg Helfer has the best diamonds and settings. I'm getting lots of compliments and it's amazing. People keep telling me how perfect my ring is, how they like it and they always ...

Gregg asked me to leave a review on City Search & Yelp, so here it goes. July '10, using City Search, I found Gregg and brought to him my original wedding set; platinum, excellent...

My jeweler for life now. 12/17/2009

Bought engagement rings from Gregg earlier this year in January. Came back for a baby gift and an x-mas present. His selection, price, and professional service are 2nd to no one I have met in this business. Look forward to sending customers your way. Thanks again. more

Customer Service 10/9/2009

Gregg was superb in customer service. That's the really what this comes down to. Yes, Nick was nice up front (and great with communication). Yes, Gregg's brother made and maintains a great website. But, what made me enjoy my engagement ring search the most was having a jeweler that listened to me, created a beautiful ring, and followed up in all areas of the transaction. Gregg wanted to meet my fiance after she got the ring, ensure size, and clear up any loose ends, though there weren't any. I'd recommend Mr. Helfer to anyone, hands down the best decision I've made in a long time. Pros: Stayed within my budget Cons: Small Office? more

Gregg helped with everything 8/19/2009

Gregg helped with the whole “ring shopping” process. My wife said “Yes” and LOVES the ring. She really does love it and has been receiving compliments ever since I proposed. I asked her in New Buffalo, MI and then came back to Chicago to celebrate with family and friends. Thanks again for your help with everything. I know we will be back for the bands at some point….not sure when the wedding is or how soon we need to come back. more

A Jewel in Chicago for sure 8/18/2009

My husband bought both my engagement and wedding rings from Gregg. He had some delays when he ordered the engagement ring...much of it was due to his indecision though. Gregg had great suggestions. Things went great for the wedding band. I brought it in to be re-sized, and the service was awesome then too. I had the ring engraved, and I was worried that the inscription inside the ring would be damaged by the re-sizing, but it didn't change!! The ring looked brand new because they polished it before they sent it back! I have been very satisfied with my rings from Gregg Helfer. I get compliments on them everyday.. more

This ring is on fire! 7/14/2009

The ring looked like an absolute sparkling comet!! The ring was delivered on time as promised by Gregg and came out as expected..an absolutely first rate company to deal with. Gregg is so nice and is a pleasure compared to others that we saw on jewelers row. The princess cut diamond had lots of fire is for sure worth more than what I paid. Gregg Helfer Ltd. has outstanding customer service...period. I plan on purchasing again when I need more jewelry in the future. Pros: Nice to deal with more

Gregg Helfer and GLEEM Jewelers 7/1/2009

To make a long story short, Gregg Helfer and GLEEM Diamonds and Jewelry provided an amazing customer service experience and a perfect ring and stone for my fiancee's engagement ring. She and I are both extremely happy with the end results. I was leaving the country for 2 weeks and ran into a road block when my then-girlfriend, now-finacee, changed the specs of her engagement ring. I contacted 4 different jewelers in the Indianapolis area where I live but each told me that the project would need 6-8 weeks to be completed. I received Gregg's name and number through a friend at work. I was on the road for work when I called Gregg and explained my unique situation. Approximately 3 weeks before leaving the country, Gregg and GLEEM pulled off a minor miracle through many phone calls, a few e-mails, etc. Gregg was exceptional detailed and accommodating. Thanks so much Gregg and GLEEM for all of your efforts and a wonderful customer service and final product experience. I would, and will, recommend Gregg to anyone. Pros: Fantastic Customer Service more

Gregg, thanks again!! Reveiw fully deserved 6/24/2009

Hi Gregg, My fiance, TP, came to you to create my engagement ring at the end of 2008/beginning of 2009. I've attached a picture of the ring that you created. I can't express in words how perfect this ring is and how much it fits with my personality. As you may have already concluded, I said yes!!! Because of the quality and care you provided, I would like to consult with you in regards to creating T's wedding band. T picked out a band made by a designer by the name of Scott Kay. This picture is also attached. T's ring finger size is an 8.5. I welcome your opinion on the design and type of metal used. You come highly recommended from T, and when I'm gazing at my ring everyday, his recommendation is confirmed! I look forward to hearing from you! Best, BK Pros: Friendly, Best Prices more

Incredible experience 6/3/2009

Gregg, I popped the question last night. She said yes, and she was amazed by the ring. She said it's so extravagant she might want to change it to include fewer diamonds, but then this morning she said she doesn't know if she could ever give it up. So, I'll you know in the next couple of days if we'll need any modifications. Thanks for your fantastic work and even more impressive customer service. You'll certainly get referrals from me. Best, J Pros: Gregg more

Gregg is the best!!! 6/3/2009

Dear Gregg, Doug just proposed tonight and after calling and texting everyone we know I had to write and thank you for such a beautiful ring. It's absolutely perfect! I love it! Thank you for all your hard work and for being so patient.........yeah turns out I was a little more anxious than I thought I would be. So thank you again. It is seriously PERFECT! I look forward to working with you on an awesome wedding band for Doug (I'll probably keep mine pretty simple). I will tell EVERYONE I know about you and it just so happens I have a few young women working with me all in line for their men to propose. Have a great rest of the week. I know I will! J Pros: Service more

Unbelievable! A+ 5/19/2009

I recently ordered a 1 Carat diamond to go with a platinum engagement band. It is absolutely the best thing I have ever purchased. I was a little leary at first buying on jewelers row, but the customer service Gregg and the staff provided was good.,,and they answered all my questions. I would reccomend Gregg Helfer as your first choice for engagement rings. Great Price....Great Customer Service. Pros: Great people and knowledge more

Great experience 5/19/2009

I wanted to thank everyone at Gregg Helfer Ltd. for all the help they provided me with in the purchase of my fiancé’s engagement ring. I proposed recently and she loved it. We both couldn't be happier. She loves it and we've received so many compliments on how custom and unique it looks. Everyone thinks I'm a big shot because they assume it was costly. This is what they don't know: I paid plenty less than many of my friends who got far less. Gregg was outstanding and his knowledge is better than anyone I met on jeweler’s row. Engagement ring shopping is a confusing experience, but I am so happy to have found Gregg on Citysearch. I have been in jewelry stores all over Chicago and no one can match the value and service I've received from Gregg Helfer Ltd.. All of the education about diamonds I've received from you, I couldn't believe the premium prices other jewelers charge for diamonds. I saw similar cut diamonds marked up twice as much! I'm so happy I found you Gregg, and our selection is worth every penny. You can expect many referrals and continued purchases from me. Many thanks! Pros: pricing, friendly, no pressure more
