Costco 1.45 ctw diamond hoops

[pinkprashu]

I have been lusting over hoops for sometime and decided to pull the trigger on the Costco ones. I have been quite happy with my recent diamond purchases from Costco that I purchased as gifts for my sisters and niece. The quality of diamonds is very good as I louped them
and they are definitely cut very well and have no visible inclusions even under a 10x magnification. I initially bought inside out hopps from costco but was not too happy with them so I returned them and purchased these hoops.

These hoops definitely have nice arrows and are very sparkly. I thought they look big on me and was debating if I should go for 10 pointers but I have already gotten a lot of compliments on them. I have decided to keep them for now.

I have one picture as of now to show you.

Very nice! How big are the stones then and how many of each hoop? They have a nice presence on your ear. I have long hair and think elongated hoops would be nice on me versus studs (and easier on the budget to boot).

There are 5 diamonds on each hoop. Each diamond is 14.5 pts

Thanks for posting these and sharing your experience with Costco jewelry. They are really pretty and have a lot of presence (in a good way)!

I owned a pair of these 5 years ago! I loved them and regret returning then (I bought my hubby a gift instead). I'm pretty sure that the price hadn't increased since I bought them which is surprising. I remember someone (it was a PS'er) did a comparison of the Costco version and WF ACA version and she preferred the Costco version. I think you can do a search here for her thread however I think in the end, she kept the WF version. She even wrote a review on the Costco site.

I'm very jealous and may have to put these back on my "to buy" list!

Gorgeous! I have not yet bought diamonds from Costco but it's probably one of the only items I have not yet bought there LOL. Now you have me thinking about that hehe. Please post more pics when you have the time and enjoy your beautiful new earrings.

This is a shot of my jewelry box with items I wear to work. For comparison sake, there is a Tiffany channel set band. A Bulgari wedding band. An Id jewelry bezel set band. Id jewelry drop earrings, a 1.3ct ACA ering. 2.6 CT ering that is GIA xxx. I did not include the ACA bangle in this picture.

I have always admired their designs and pulled the trigger on some items over Christmas for gifts. Could not find a better price for the same quality. So once I was confortable with the quality it was easy for me to purchase these earrings. I have also been looking at the 1.5 ctw ACA hoops but these are at least $900 cheaper than them with the same presence and almost the same quality(I can say this as I compared them to my ACA diamonds).

I will see if I can post some pics of the diamond earrings I bought as gifts shortly.

Thats a bummer. I am glad you are inspired to purchase them now. I did look at those posts before I purchased these. I really do love Costco's return policy so I knew I can return them even after 6 months of use if I was not happy with them. I don't think I am going to return them. I have been told they look much better on me than my 1 ctw studs from BGD. I know they are a different look and hoops just look good on most people I think

Thanks. I read your post on hoops and studied the ACA versions before purchasing these. Thank you for your posts, they were very helpful

Thank you. I will post some more pics of the other costco jewelry I bought as gifts soon.

I agree with others who think the size is nice on you. They have presence, but aren't overwhelming.

I have loved those earring for such a long time! I was actually going to purchase them last Mothers Day, and then I came across another pair and purchased them instead (See photo) . They are still on my wish list and I will purchase them. They look gorgeous on you with your lovely dark hair. The earrings I purchased are killer sparkly and I thought a great price for 1.75 ct. The larger stones have great arrows and they said they were at least I colored but I think they are at least H's if not higher. I adore them, but I still would love to have the killer hoops you purchased. A few years ago I also purchased a really small pair of hoop with .30 points and they have great sparkle too and they were about $300 at the time. Great deals to be had! The photo is not that great but the earring have killer pave.
