I am new the this board. I actually just found it today in doing research about the Jewelry Factory. I am a beginner with diamonds, but I getting engaged soon. I have been to a couple of local jewelry stores and know the basics. Knowing the basics makes me think that I would be foolish to be a diamond from the jewelry factory that is a "house diamond" and does not have any kind of certification. It is 1.09ct princess cut and is selling for $2874.70. I looked at is the magnifying glass but I am not trained to know what I am looking for. I know to look for black spots and I could not see any, but again not trained. Please let me know if I should forget about that diamond. I think I know the answer but I just wanted to confirm. Also as far as buying diamonds online from a place like pricescope. The guy who talked to me at the local jewelry store said that you had to be careful buying loose stones online. He said a lot of times the stones crack when they are set. What should I look for in a website when looking online. Thank you to anyone who responds. Dan |

Foolish is a bit strong...but this is a pretty well vetted forum...and I think advice will steer you to a certified diamond. The consequence could more than double your expense, or save you money...whether you're looking for a princess type or not. P.S. For Princesses in particular, do read here about what AGS has done for them. Regards, Ira (Ruffles have Ridges) Z. |

What should I look for in a website when looking online. I'm sure he does not want you to look on-line because you may find a much better deal. Buying from any PS listed vendor will be fine. Why would stones bought on-line be prone to cracking? Talk about scare tactics.

Thanks for the feedback. The store is actually now called the Jewelry exchange in norristown. It is part of the chain that I have seen people talk about on this forum before. I think I am going to try to find a good buy online. Anyone with suggestions on a nice princess cut around 1 ct, looking to stay under $3000 but I am flexable and appreciate any feedback. Dan |
