Sorry it took me awhile to post what i finally ended up with and i thank all members who had helped me a lot in my decision process. YOU guys are awesome! I can''t thank you all enough..
First let me explaine how i discovered this site. I bought a ring from ebay with a guaranteed return policy of 7 days.Needless to say, i surfed and researched like a hawk on the net for any customer reviews and experiences from that particular company and BINGO..pricescope appeared on my screen! One full day after i had the ring, it was on its way back to the seller. I did not even bother to have it appraised by an independent appraiser. What i knew then was to return it ... and return i did FAST! Though, i lost about $150 for the mail but no regrets because it led me to this site, PRICESCOPE!
I had been married for about 11 yrs. now. My first engagement ring is a simple 14k gold band with a diamond solitaire that looks like the tip of a pen(hubby was still in school). This very day, it is still sitting in my jewelry box. My second one was a total of about 2 ct with a center stone of about 1.5 ct , this one i lost together with my wedding band during our big move.At that time it was not insured anymore because my insurance was a rider to the house that we just sold. I could not even remember the day and time that i lost it. Best bet was i probably misplaced or lost it when the movers were packing our stuff less than a year ago. And yes, I have this bad habit of taking it off and just leaving it sitting in the counters ..HUH! Big lesson learned!
So this ring that i got from WHITEFLASH is actually my third ering. After 2 mos of asking " what you think?" i finally did it ! And i am soooo happy with my decision. Since i was looking for a pear, i was talking to four different vendors from this site..USA certed, DCD (allen), abazias ,and of course WHITEFLASH. USA certed was very nice but kind of slow in their response; James Allen so far was really nice , honest ,and have a great customer service ;Abazias was okay; and it is whiteflash that really made me happy! Based on what i read , GOG is a great company but can not run a search for a pear shape from their website. WHITEFLASH''s Katie and John (my fellow aquarian) answered my questions patiently, and without pressure. They also have a great lifetime upgrade policy which i think is just the BEST!
Now, where are the pics? That is exactly the reason of this late post. Been trying, testing , playing with my digital cam but couldn''t get a decent picture. Our computer camera did the trick but can''t download it here . Guys, i apologize but i guess this boring story is what i can share for now...
Whiteflash , the ring still sparkles like crazy but in my mind it is starting to shrink. Maybe time for an uprade but hubby says a firm "NO!!!!!!!!!!"(esp. after i lost the other one). Kidding aside , you guys are great people and more power! And to all the wonderful people here, can''t thank you enough from the bottom of my heart!
mwahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
