They claim to have some GIA certified diamonds. I'd get all the info from the certificate before going any further. I notice on their Ebay listings they give no information on cut (depth, table etc.) They have an address listed on their Ebay listings as New York City. Good luck, I had a negative experience with an Ebay jeweler as posted on the MDC diamonds thread.

thanks for the link to JVC, but i couldn't find ANY body there, not even well known stores.... so i called but i guess they were closed.. will try again... also, i checked bbb.org and larouche has one total complaint..... re; mdc diamonds, i heard that from someone else too, they have nice stuff too (online) i think for ebay they have to have Strict standards or there is a lot of trouble they'd get into, you know? do u think they would get away w/ it? some of their rings (larouche) on there have GIA certs and they even have close ups, i guess it depends on the ring?

I really recommend you give the vendors here a chance. You will save more money and get what you want.

that's the thing--LaRouche may be fine but there are several "sure bets" here on the forum. Why bother with risky eBay when vendors here offer proven reliability and reputations? And better service, a la pictures of the actual stones, sarin, scope images, etc.

I just got back from N.Y.C and visited Mr. Peter LaRouche. He was a perfect gentleman and had beautiful diamonds. He had a store front on 5th Ave. and was more than happy to answer any questions. He was very confident about his prices and quaility. He showed me a few rings with the GIA certificates. And then politely told me to go shop around. I spent two days in N.Y.C.'s diamond district trying to find a better deal. I could not. I am happy to say that I did buy a ring from LaRouche diamonds and I will return to him in the future. I did see his rings on Ebay first and thought this is too good to be true. Lucky for me it was good and very true!!!

I realize this is an older topic but wanted to add my .02. I just purchased a ring from Peter LaRouche and I could not be happier. The ring is precisely what I had been looking for, I got an unbelievable deal and I had the ring appraised and it checked out to be exactly what Mr. LaRouche described. I was nervous buying a ring on the internet but he was wonderful, very understanding of my trepidation and was more than happy to answer any and all of my questions. If I could figure out how to post a photo I would. It's a halo set asscher, I definitely recommend any people looking for halo set diamonds give a look at his eBay store.

Ummm... I thought I was doing something nice for the board by verifying what this other poster had said and was excited to share my news. You are right, I have never posted before on this board but I've been lurking for months and have inquired with several of the regular jewelers on this board (all of whom were very nice but were not able to meet the quality and price of LaRouche).. I'm not paid for or part of LaRouche. I don't see my post as in "defense" of LaRouche since he's not on trial, just trying to make this board what it's meant to be - an open forum about diamond purchasing. But quiver away I guess...
