I can't even talk about this without crying...
3 years ago, I bought my wedding band from Blue Nile. At the time, BN's representative told us it is a re-sizable style (pavé diamond, half way across) and if they can't resize it, they can offer other options.
Fast forward to this year, my ring size grew from 5.75 to 7.5 due to pregnancy. It is a big jump and Blue Nile said they can only resize it to 6.5. Well... that's not going to work. What are my other options? They told me to BUY A NEW RING. They absolutely do not care about the sentimental value of a wedding band. The BN representative I spoke to over the phone compared it to a pair of jeans. If you outgrow it, get a new one.
The most ironic thing is, my ring is available on their website in the size I need. But they refused an even exchange. They also refused to turn it into a credit so I can use it toward my next purchase.
thoughts? is this a common practice among jewelers? I feel like I just tossed $2000 down the drain...not sure what to do about it
