Anyone remember Ratners? 

This chain of jewellers seemed to go under when their owner / CEO type fella described the stuff they sold in their shops as 'total cr*p' lol

Here's Ratners Jewellers at number 28 Fargate in Sheffield City Centre.

I remember Ratners on Fargate, and the almost overnight collapse after his comments on how they can sell a cut glass decanter with glasses on a silver plate tray for about £5 - which even in 1991 wasn’t a fortune 😂

I remember thinking then - and still do now to a degree about the real quality of all the other jewellery shops out there...
