"A Truly Exceptional Jewelry Exchange Experience at ISHTARA! I recently visited Singapore from abroad and was on the lookout for a trustworthy jewelry store to exchange some of my old gold for new designs. After exploring multiple stores across the city, I can confidently say that ISHTARA stood out in every possible way, from pricing to customer service. Here’s why ISHTARA earned my 5 stars: 1. Best Gold Price in Town: On the day of my visit, ISHTARA offered the lowest rate at S$129/g, while other stores were quoting as high as S$132+. This made a significant difference in overall value. 2. Seamless Old Gold Exchange: The exchange process was incredibly smooth. They honored the same rate for my 22k old gold as they did for the new jewelry—just as advertised! Even an old 14k gift from India was fairly appraised at 82%, which I found very reasonable. 3. Extensive Variety & Elegant Designs: ISHTARA truly impressed me with their wide range of contemporary and traditional designs. Whether you're looking for something modern or classic, their collection caters to all tastes. I visited several stores, but none matched the variety, craftsmanship, and uniqueness that ISHTARA offered. 4. Lowest Making Charges(MC): Their average making charge was around 8%, beating competitors by 3–4%. This transparency and fairness in pricing really impressed me. 5. Outstanding Customer Service: The highlight of my visit was the warm and professional service from Mr. Yusoff, a seasoned expert who made the entire experience memorable. His knowledge, patience, and genuine care made us feel valued and well-guided. I highly recommend ISHTARA to anyone looking to exchange old jewelry, especially fellow Indian expats from the U.S. who value both tradition and trust. Thank you again, Mr. Yusoff, for making this such a delightful and rewarding experience!!"
