Watch this before BUYING your GOLD CHAIN!

I got a pretty negative comment the other night and it didn't sit well with me at all. I usually receive very positive comments and reviews so this was a first. I just wanted to make a video explaining chain sizing. I always do my best to show you guys the sizes. When you shop Jacoje, you have a personal jeweler for life and I'll work 24/7 365 days a week to make any situation right.

First coment ayeee !

[@smoo8243]

You've worked well with me exchanges on pieces I wasn't happy with and I appreciate it. You run a great business. Thanks for caring about your customers Braden.

[@jacoje]

Thanks Sean. I try my best. Exchanges aren’t easy because of the volume and everything go on but the priority is for everyone to be happy

[@VENTURA805WesG]

I will only shop Jacoje. Braden is the only jewler I trust at this point. His customer service is excellent, for it just being him running everything. Can't wait to make my next purchase...

[@jacoje]

Thank you! Means a lot

[@rubski-ds9yc]

i agree 100,% even if I hit the lottery ill stay with my boost mobile service and only shop jacoje 😎

[@matthewduecker9918]

Mr. Jacoje dont stress on that comment, he just didn't do his homework. SMASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jacoje]

Thanks Matthew! It’s hard though. I try and do my best all the time and want everyone who supports me to be happy with their decision

[@johnadams313]

First bracelet purchase, I bought the same fake one, same mm, on ebay for $7/$8 just to see how it looks in person before I bought the real one. My advice, spend $7 or $8 on a fake one first off of ebay or etsy, so you can see the actual size and if you're satisfied, buy the real deal.

[@jacoje]

Really good advice

[@kevinseveneleven]

That's actually a really good idea!

[@jeffanderson377]

Not a bad idea at all, man. I can see myself doing that in a near future.

[@alfredoochoa3452]

or spend no money go to the jewelry shop and see try on different bracelets

[@parkhillmedia]

Agreed, I buy steel jewellery first to test sizes and the looks on me, then I get the gold for what I liked the best. Good tip for newcomers to buying chains and bracelets.

[@williamflagg2372]

Braden went back and forth via email with me before i decided to purchace my 5mm franco. He took photos in comparison with a chain that i allready own, went out of his way to make me a happy customer. All you have to do is ask. If your not happy with the size, the only person to blame is yourself.

[@jacoje]

Thank you! I always try my best

[@kevinseveneleven]

Exactly and plus he will exchange! It's not like you have to throw your chain away if it's not quite what you were hoping for lol

[@bossplayer510]

@@kevinseveneleven I can't get a reply from the guy I got a 3mm Franco and want to change to a 3.5 or 4 even and he won't get back to me at all.

[@flexdiaz]

I emailed Braden that I was unsure about an everyday wear 3mm vs 4mm I was worried about the 4mm being too big for everyday never take off type chain. He quickly replied to my comments and concerns and was understanding about if the 3mm is too small that I could exchange it for a bigger size. Rather than spend time (and money) shipping chains back and forth, I went on Amazon and got the 2 different size chains that I was looking at in stainless steel just as a reference. Glad I did that, now I know exactly what I need to order... :-)

[@tmacc100]

Videos like this are the reason why you are solid in my book. Can’t wait to purchase my first chain ever from you. In October for my bday! Salute bro!

[@adventuresoftigtourettesin5885]

Great video , and I 150% TRUST Braden with my budget and telling him , he is the most honest business owner I have ever shopped from , if you are in the market for gold or anything jewelry do not hesitate to buy from Jacoje ! I am a customer for life ! This guy will not let you down and does great custom orders ! Smash smash

[@xXEliteSpartanXx]

Bro! I got my rope chain from you a month ago and I’ve been getting nothing but compliments, the chain exceeded my expectations in every way! I will always highly recommend Jacoje and I’m getting another chain in the near future. Top notch customer service, fast shipping and best prices.

[@mvngel818]

Whats size and length did you go with ?

[@waynegarrett3781]

Nicely explained!! Because some ppl think that if they order a 2mm chain it’s going to look like a 4mm chain

[@erikgallegos1488]

Hey man regarding that comment. Maybe you should add photos of the chains being worn on the website i think that'll help with the sales and confusion of the sizing. 👍 shop Jacoje!

[@jacoje]

I agree 100% and that is the goal to have that feature. I’ll get it done in the year 2019. I even want to figure out how to add a short video as well

[@jokerzwylde73]

Listen to this guy before you buy a chain because he is 100% correct about how the chains look bigger on camera I just a bought a 7mm 24" flat curb and when I opened it up I thought it was a 5.5mm, anyhow make sure you do your homework boys before buying. I sent mine back for an 8mm 26" and that's more of the look I was looking for. His chains are very beautiful and I will be buying from him again in the near future.

[@jgotsole2622]

Great video and excellent point. You gotta know what to expect when buying a chain.Ive been buying chains for years now and your videos do a great job at seeing and comparing sizes. Some amateurs dont understand that if you wanna get that big look you gotta have them big bucks.

[@jacoje]

That’s very true

[@chademery8688]

Best place to buy jewelry is from Jacoje all day everyday. Keep on grinding my dude👊👊👊

[@edgarcampos7502]

[@jakejenning6571]

Yo JACOJE LYNX could you place a quarter beside your chains so we are able to judge even a dime for the smaller ropes

[@jacoje]

Definitely

Keep doing what you do bro! he obviously didn’t do his homework when purchasing that piece of jewelry. I love the videos, very informative. 💯✊🏿

Impressive the way you express yourself. Based on this video I have emailed you in hopes of buying my first Cuban

[@budgetstacker2317]

1:55 lol I specifically pulled up this video because a guy offered to sell me a 4mm rope chain and all the pictures are close up so it looks freakin huge ha. As always, glad I tuned in.

[@krakatoa_8180]

i won't buy something under 6mm for sure better save some more and get the real deal 6mm and over near 10mm 8mm is fine id say

[@snoopylifts]

I need that 2mm heavy link in rose gold🥇

[@warpigs8962]

I purchased a 4mm 26inch Franco from you about a month ago Beautiful chain makes me feel like a million bucks

[@dustinferreira8226]

Wow that’s cool that you will exchange!! Good to know! Bought 4mm 18k rope and not giving it back to you! Lol

[@CanMan125_]

What about one of those features that allows you to upload a selfie and have the chain inserted into the pic? Similar to what those sunglasses websites have where it photoshops them onto your face.

[@xaviergee2514]

I always watch your videos before buying any golds👏🙌

[@coreyauzenne9364]

Keep up the good work and i will buy again from you! Always great to see your videos.

[@joeydiluccia788]

You handled that well tasteful people need to know the size of their jewelry before they buy it I believe they're expecting something larger I need to be more realistic and be on point with the knowledge especially spending that type of money... Good vid💪💲

[@buckshotchief589]

thanks daddy. You never fail to look out for us. 😊

Lol you’re welcome

[@darylferrell3137]

I have A rope gold chain And Jewlery

[@RichestWinner]

Watched enough of my personal jeweler video that I don’t need this video 😤😂😂

[@aboogie3755]

I wouldn't take this comment too serious. I bought a 6mm cuban and I thought it was going to be bigger, but you say it all the time, they look bigger on camera. I'm glad I went with the 6 mil instead of the 5 mil I was going to originally purchase, again you say, if your gonna buy 5, go 6. Go a little bigger than what you think and you won't be disappointed. It's all in what's in your budget and doing your research before making this kind of commitment.

[@VennGamesMoreDoBeWeirdThoLol]

I honestly don’t understand the hate you get... you are providing such a great service with these informative videos and it’s not like your gold is fake. Like I did a decent amount of research when buying my first chain. And I’m completely satisfied with my 22 inch 3mm mariner from Jacoje. Now I’m really looking forward to stacking this chain with a 24 inch 3mm rope. I was going to do exactly what you said and try to save money by getting a 2.5mm. But after I went into a jewelry store to try on the 3mm rope, I just knew I had to have that paired with my mariner. Jacoje is an honest salesman people. It’s hard to believe, but that’s just the truth. God bless you Braden. SMASH!!

[@mikeygROCNY]

Guys order a fugazi chain off amazon for $10 in your desired size and length and test it out then buy the real thing.

[@Slim7321]

Going into the shop is terrible. They won't tell you any weights. Everything is waaaaay over priced. And the selection usually isn't that great. Just shop jacoje and do your research on what you want first.

[@jacoje]

That’s what I recommend. I’ve designed my website and this channel to help make it an easy decision. A retail store usually just wants to sell you what they have or what they’re going to make the most money on lol

[@jakemiller8402]

Good video. I’m saving up for my next Jacoje chain.

[@jacoje]

Thank you Jake

[@javierhernandez-jm8uv]

Bro you’re so right with this one lmao, I bought a 5mm flat curb and I keep turning it in for bigger ones😂, about to get a 10mm one now

[@nodaysoffj6841]

Damn really wish this video was out before I bought my chain from GLD. Was way too small and they don’t do refunds

[@jacoje]

Really? Wow. I though a company that big would do refunds

[@TheBostonTom]

This comment will probably get lost in the shuffle but I wanted to know if you will be caring the Valentino link chine? This link has been gaining a lot of attention recently and it's the best looking two tone or tricolor chain out right now IMO.

[@karldeje]

There should be a print out of the chainn sizes.. or like a sheet of paper showing the size compared to a quater or a dollar or something just like frosntnyc.com But i love jacoje!!! Im just a brok3 butt working paycheck to paycheck

[@KarelleDIY]

At least that customer got an answer. I didn't get an answer from Jacoje from my email or when I DM him. I ended up going to Shyne Jewelers and got a 7mm rope. I can't spend 4K with someone that won't reply to an email or a DM.

[@fernie2583]

Karelle Hmmm that’s odd because I e-mailed him twice today and he responded to me both times so I dunno. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@VxfreddyVx]

The question is what should I pair with my 6mm rope? Was hoping to do a pendant, but not sure what chain and chain width would look nice. Want the pendant to sit inside the rope as the rope is 26 inches. Maybe 2.5-3mm Franco?

[@BruceWayne-eh4wj]

Thanks Braden

Can you do a video on flat rings?Diamond, flooded and plain. I’m trying to figure which on I want and I need to see it before I buy it.

[@marris9210]

Hey man, don't worry about a comment like that, I've recommended you to so many people online and in the UK because of the service you provide. I think it's the customers problem if they don't do enough research and try enough jewelry on. You've mentioned everything in this video in plenty of your previous ones. If they watched more of your informative content they wouldn't find themselves in that predicament. Keep the new content coming bro. Don't recycle videos for the sake of lazy ass people! Haha Smash!!

Haha true! Thanks Matt!

[@tiagolx7313]

Hello Jacoje 🙂 First of all thank you for taking your time to read my comment i am a subscriber for almost one year and i live in Europe, Portugal. I have a question and i need your help. Why do people in America appreciate so much 10k and 14k is there any reason for that? I just ask this because I live in Portugal and I buy several pieces and in here if you go to a jewerly shop and ask for 10K or 14K they laugh at you face its very rare to find pieces like that because nobody wants these 10k and 14k pieces .. Is that why people in America have big chains? Cuz here in Portugal its almost impossible to buy a kilo Chain ou a even two kilo chain because it is very expensive i think i know now why people in America wear big chains because must of them are 10k and 14k am i correct? Here in Portugal the minimum that is sold to the public is 18k and it cost 30 to 35€ per gram. Best regards Jacoje 🥂

[@oooohhhyaaaa423]

Jacoje, I wanted to get a gold chain and found your videos. They were very helpful!! I was getting ready to get your 2mm 14k yellow gold rope necklace for $335 but I figured I would shop around. Belk happened to have a big sale when I went in to price it and I got the same rope chain for $180. Do you know anything about their chains? Did I make a mistake?

[@RellJefe90]

Compare the weights... Shop by weight not by cheapest price.

[@rahulparikh6183]

Tried to use the contact us to ask a question about a chain I bought. The gram weight is off from what your employee wrote on the tag. On top of that, the clasp isn’t gold so it’s much less gram weight my dude. Hit me up please. Just looking for a response at the least...

[@mitchydoom8666]

Good luck

Love my jacoje pieces, but dudes first mistake was buying a Miami Cuban link from any other place other that a Miami jeweler who makes them by hand lol. U will get ripped off buying a Cuban link from jacoje. Sorry, that's just facts though. Look at Daniel jewelry, or CMG links for a Miami Cuban but otherwise jacoje all the way....

[@jacoje]

Why you gotta do me like that :/ just kidding. You have to shop around. With Cuban links, the Miami market is very competitive. People judge my business based off those prices but don’t realize those same jewelers are charging a lot more than I do for Italian imported chains and rope chains. It evens out.

I bought a 6mm rope off jacoje but haven’t purchased my last 2 chains from him. One was a Cuban and one was a Franco waaaaay cheaper than Braden and I am looking to get an 8mm 18k rope but jacoje wants $54 per gram 😳 vs crm, Daniel jewelry, or cmg all want $36-37 for 18k. $18 more per gram is insane. Jacoje has the best customer service around but his prices are just too high for being an online retailer. For smaller pieces sure go for it but for heavy pieces it doesn’t make sense

I got. a 1mm Franco from jacoje and it is amazing

[@hiphopjewels]

I can't believe there are adults out there, who still don't know what millimeters look like. There are basically 25 millimeters in an inch. So, a 5mm chain is a fifth of an inch. Braden has larger hands, cause he's a guy over 6' tall, so the chains should look smaller on him than a lot of other people. He does a great job showing the size, both in his hand, and on the neck. If he was a little skinny guy showing himself wearing the chains, I could see why someone might think the chains look big. But, there's no room for confusion here. He's transparent too, by showing us that negative comment. I wouldn't have addressed it at all. That guy probably didn't even buy Jacoje, just a hater trolling the 'net.

What dose gold plated mean dose it mean it has more gold

[@TroublePsych]

No it does not have more gold. Gold plated things use usually other cheaper metals like brass or stainless steel as the main metal, then a small, thin amount of real gold is layered on. Depending on the wearer the plating will fade off sooner or later.
