Well, I heard the news, and it ain’t good. Robbins Jewelers going out of business. Yep, you heard that right. That store, you know, the one with all them shiny things, is closing its doors.
I remember when they first opened up. It was a big deal. Everyone was talking about it. They had all kinds of pretty engagement rings and necklaces and them diamonds. Lots of folks went there to get something special for their loved ones. I reckon they did a good business back then.

Why Robbins Jewelers Closing?
Now, why are they closing? That’s what everyone’s wondering. Some folks say it’s because people ain’t buying as much jewelry these days. Times are tough, you know. Money’s tight, and folks are careful with how they spend it. Maybe they’re buying cheaper stuff online, who knows.
Others say it’s because the owners, those Rovinsky folks, are getting old. They want to retire, and that is good. They’ve been at it for a long, long time. I heard they started selling them appliances before they got into the jewelry business. Can you imagine? From washing machines to diamonds! It’s a big change!
I also heard that the jewelry business, in general, is not good. People have less money and they aren’t buying as many diamonds as before. I don’t know if it’s true, but that’s what I heard.
Robbins Jewelers Sales
Right now, they got a big sale going on. Up to 70% off, they say. That’s a lot of savings! If you’ve been wanting something from there, now’s the time to get it. It’s your last chance, that’s for sure.
- Engagement Rings
- Diamonds
- Necklaces
- Earrings
- Watches
They got all kinds of things on sale. It is like they are giving things away. I don’t know what will happen to all the jewelry that they don’t sell.
Bernie Robbins Jewelers
I think Robbins Jewelers was once called Bernie Robbins Jewelers. That was a long time ago. I remember them being in Philadelphia. Now, they say that the owners, this Harvey and Maddy, they are going to retire. They worked enough, I guess. They had the store for more than sixty years, ain’t that something?
They sold all kinds of things. Now they say that they are not selling the company to their staff. I don’t know why. It’s a family business, I reckon. They want to keep it that way, maybe.
What’s Next for Robbins?
Well, nobody really knows. It’s sad to see them go. They’ve been around for a long time, and they’ve been good to the community. It’s like the end of an era, you know?
I reckon folks will just have to find somewhere else to buy their shiny things. There are other jewelry stores around, but it won’t be the same. Robbins Jewelers was special, you know? They had a good selection and the people there were always nice.
This store in Newark, near the Delaware Tech Stanton Campus and Christiana Mall, it will close soon. They say it’s the last Robbins Diamonds store. They’ve been there for almost 25 years. It is a long time. I remember when it opened. Everyone was so excited.
It is sad, but that is life. Things change. Stores open, stores close. People come, people go. All we can do is remember the good times and hope for the best. And maybe, get a good deal on a diamond ring before they close for good! I always wanted a big, shiny diamond ring. Maybe now’s my chance! This Robbins Jewelers going out of business is sad but it might be good for me, you know!
I heard they will give you a lot of money back if you bought a diamond from them before. Something about 110% of what you paid. That sounds like a good deal. I don’t know all the details, but it might be worth looking into if you bought a diamond from them.
I hope they find something good to do after they retire. Maybe they will travel the world or something. Or maybe they will just sit on their porch and watch the world go by. That sounds nice, don’t it? Just sitting there, relaxing, with no worries in the world. Yep, that’s the life.
