My upgraded ring!!!!!

amyjokerette Cut Rock Total Posts: 307 Last Post: 9/19/2009 Member Since: 9/5/2008	After lots of looking around, and advice from everyone on Pricescope. I came to realize that I really was not happy with the craftsmanship from my original Kay/Belden jewelers setting... nor the customer service. Here are two threads talking about my inner conflict! Kay jewelers made me cry Sloppy Channel Work I do love my Leo diamond though, so I found a new setting, almost identical to my old one, only BETTER! So, now my ring is here and I am wearing it with a huge smile!!! I took lots of pics!!! :) Drum roll please.... AmyJokerette: Former maul store shopper... newly converted PS perfectionist!

amyjokerette Cut Rock Total Posts: 307 Last Post: 9/19/2009 Member Since: 9/5/2008	For comparisons sake... here is my new ring (left), with the old setting (right). I had a moissanite set into the old setting so I can wear it camping or traveling. See how the craftsmanship of the old setting was just not as nice?!

Congrats! You must be thrilled. I love your new avatar too. By the way, WHO did you get to set your diamond? Hopefully not Kay? God, no! This time I took the ring and the diamond to be set a local jeweler who does very nice work. They didn't have a the setting that I wanted, and their diamonds are not what I was looking for, which is why I did not use them originally. I'm never letting Kays touch my ring again! I was initially concerned because the new setting voids my "6 month prong check" warranty with Kays. But I decided to just insure it on my homeowners and be done with Kays entirely! Plus its nice to know the ring is fully insured and I can wear it with confidence! I'm so happy, and I should mention my husband is thrilled as well!
