Maryanns 511 Washington Street, Cape May, NJ 08204

"I have visited both stores in Runnemede and Cape May. I have always had a fantastic experience. Mary Ann and her team are knowledgeable, fair, and provide excellent service when it comes to antiques and coins. I have been buying from them for years and will continue to recommend them to all my family and friends. When it comes to buying and selling coins/jewelry, both shop locations are reputable and second to none. Their business and their prices are superior to other companies."

"BUYER BEWARE...I love Cape May and visit there often. I usually buy jewelry in "Queen May" and was always satisfied. I went into Maryann's in October 2022, sort of reminded me of a pawn shop, but saw a beautiful Aqua/Diamond ring. The sales person Donna showed me the ring and said from the sales ticket it was $2695. I also asked about the grading of diamonds (color, clarity etc.) She said it would have to be appraised. I found this odd. I didn't purchase it because I wanted to shop around. We went back to Cape May in February 2023 (a few months later), and went into Maryanns shop. The same ring was there, I asked again to see the ring and she and told me the SAME price $2,695. I told her I was interested in the ring but can she do better on the price. She said she would call the owner. I heard her tell the owner ALL details of the ring including the price. She said we can take $500 off which would make it $2,195. I said I would be willing to pay $2,100. She told me she would have to ask the owner and would call me. She took all my info. She called shortly after, left a message on my answering machine(which I still have) confirming to sell me the ring for $2,100. She was sending it out to be appraised. I didn't hear anything for about a month, finally Donna called and said the ring was appraised at $4000. I said great, and confirmed I was paying $2,100. She said absolutely, that was the price agreed to and they would never go back on that. She also said if I wasn't interested to let her know because the ring would be put back out on display and the price would be raised. I told her I wanted the ring. She told me she would message me the appraisal. She never did. Another week goes by...I talked to Donna and was told my ring is at a different shop of theirs, to call and they would ship the ring from that store. When I called, I was told the ring was a higher price $3,295, but she would sell it to me for $2,700!!! I explained that was not the price agreed upon. I was so disappointed and mad that not only was my time waste for month, I was deceived!!! I will be reporting the store to the Better Business Bureau! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SHOP!"

"I love this store! We visit Cape May twice a year and I have found beautiful items. The store manager is incredibly helpful."

"Owners were kind & helpful. Decent selection of coins and jewelry. Worth visiting since its on the main strip."

"A very nice shop with old-time charm. The store is long and narrow with one wall covered in glass wall and base cabinets. A nice selection of antique and estate jewelry. We always stop by and check out the newly displayed vintage jewelry items. Many unique pieces. We've purchased several over the years."
