I am Beyond Impressed with James Allen Jewelers!!

   I got a call from one of the my nephews a week ago asking me to help him persue the perfect marquise diamond for his FF.   Always happy to spend other peoples money,  I was up for the challenge.   After making a few calls to several vendors,  I decided to click on one of the James Allen banners here on Pricescope.............and the search was OVER!  In fact,  it seemed effortless!    I called and spoke to a gentlemen named Darin.    We discussed 4 different marquise diamonds that I looked at on the JA site.    We narrowed it down to 2............and then to "THE ONE".   This was actually the one that I personally felt was a winner.    I know Marquise diamonds are not the most popular shape to true diamond lovers as they are classified as "so 1980's"...but I have to say the diamond left both my nephew and I BREATHLESS.    Imagine how faint he is going to feel after he receives it back from Leon Mege in it's classic 3 stone setting with pear sidestones.   (but I will leave that for another thread!!)   Thanks so much James Allen for you impeccable service and helping us to find that perfect shaped marquise diamond.    Above all the 4 c's  ...the shape was the biggest key in finding a marquise.     I love the presentation box that the diamond came in- along with the beautiful cherrywood box.   I am beyond impressed.  I hope to make a purchase from James Allen myself in the near future.  BTW,  no one could come close to the price of this diamond.........and pricescope members get a discount too!!!!!
