Not Steve Singer's shitty trinket shop, but the other corner?

A sweatshop that dips flowers into molten metal.

Popular in Chinese food restaurants everywhere.

The Dull store. That's d-o-l-l Dull

A (previously) much more popular jewelry store called Robbins 8th and Walnut. When they started the commercials they were the unknown underdog of 8th and Walnut.

I'm learning valuable shit today, thank you!

Apparently, the 8th and Walnut was dropped from Robbin's altogether. I just searched all over for the old commercial with the Dovells so I could post it and the "8th and Walnut" was dubbed over. It's like the original never existed.

Jerry Robbins is a diamond-bearded jerk off.

Edit: This isn't what I was looking for but it's about 10 times more horrific:

someone needs to repurpose their funds and buy engagement braces and engagement tooth-whitenings. With a mug like that, no one is looking at your jewelry.

There are about 5 million people in the Philadelphia metropolitan area. I think Robbins went out of their way to find the most hideous of them all. I'm kind of impressed.

Can't have customers that look better than the owners in the commercial. Unfortunately, that bar was set so low by the owners that they had to get hideous Chuds for it.

"Our name is our address!"

When you called him a "diamond-bearded jerk off" I thought you were being facetious. Holy Christ!

Robbins rocks! Robbins rocks! Yea! That guy is a deep voiced, diamond studded beard having, douche bucket.

All corners of 8th and Walnut have jewelry places. That's why they specify the other corner.

This is the answer I was looking for. Take us to break, guys

Robbin's 8th and Walnut used the catch phrase, "Come see us at the corner of 8th & Walnut." They must have trademarked it, because they are no longer there and Singer has to say the other corner.

A boring fact for you all, that street in Philadelphia is called Jewelers Row.

Are there hasidic jews with Uzis buying/selling diamonds by the bucketload?

Steven Singer's other shitty trinket shop.

Bought one of those amazing roses cause i like to support the show. When it arrived i had to throw it away at my office dumpster so my wife didn't see the embarrassing shit i bought. I forgot what guest was on with steven singer and bashed his shit rose but i loved it.

I believe that was Joel mchale from community

What was wrong with it? Just a shitty tin-looking rose like Joel McHale said?

philly? who the fuck would go to philly for kitschy ornaments?

A Starbucks, a 7 Eleven, and a Restaurant with "pain" in the name...

First off, "oh, literal paradin." Second, restaurant is "Le pain Quotidien" and looks to be some sort of fancy family-oriented breakfast jernt. I have no idea what a "tartine" is but they seem to serve several.
