Regarding retailers: I’ve poked around on this sub for a bit and get the general consensus is that buying from locally-owned jewelers is best to avoid over-inflated markups. What should I be on the lookout for regarding pearls? Also, diamonds are so pretty but more of a stretch financially…are white sapphire and other less-hyped, mineral gemstones still a worthwhile investment? And for when they are a financial possibility: are lab grown diamonds gimmicky/bad investments over natural ones? Is that true, and if so, what incentive is there to pay for 18k over 14k?Īs for gemstones: I love the look of pearls but don't know much about which types are a better buy (just that saltwater is generally considered more valuable than freshwater). I read somewhere that, although 24k gold is 100% pure gold content, 14k and 18k gold alloys are more ideal for jewelry given better resilience. Since I want something that could stand up to regular wear, my focus has been on solid gold. Not sure how true that is for all jewelry, but I guess her advice has started to sink in: I’ve been wanting to mitigate some of the guilt I feel about spending on something as non-essential as jewelry by investing into quality pieces that will hold onto their value. Growing up, my mom always said if I wanted to buy jewelry, the least I could do was buy real jewelry so as to avoid throwing money away.

You’re definitely getting what you (at the end of the day) over pay for with this company, and Customer Service is not very effective in changing that. it is and the order is still “Processing”. I sent another mail asking for an update, and received a response stating that the order would be sent out on. It has now been another week… and the order is still “Processing”. Their response was they would put a rush on the order, and send an email once it has shipped. did it state they would not be processing ANY orders for over 2 weeks during this period. I asked where on their site, emails, ordering process, etc. I reached out to customer service and they explained the processing and shipping breakdown (which I had already expressed my understanding to), and then that it was Chinese New Year (which started on ) and they are on Holiday. As of the order was still listed as “Processing”. This was purchased on, 7-9 day processing, with 3 day shipping. They offered a discount which was fine, and I purchased a replacement. They then refused to fix the ring, stating it was now over the 1-year warranty.

I sent the ring in and they replaced the missing stone (which took almost a month each time, equaling over 1/3 of the year), but then the large stone chipped. Received a ring, and in less than 1 year had multiple small stones fall out of the setting.
