Re: Anxious about James Allen purchase. Anyone dealt with th

Jimmianne, the e-mails went directly to me and I had no pictures attached to them. The family members that saw the ring said it's absolutely beautiful. But it isn't what I ordered. I liked the idea of two-tone especially since I have a warmer diamond (K) but now am wondering if the YG would make the diamond yellow or warm (SA said it faces up really white, very little to no warmth per video of diamond). I posted to my original thread and then started a new one just to get other's opinions on what to do. If they suggest YG, I may have FF send it back sight unseen but if they suggest WG, well I hope he proposes in less than 30 days just in case I don't like it but PS hasn't steered me wrong yet.

I don't know if they still do this, but sometime right after shipping I would get an email with a professional photo of my jewelry : )

Same thing here. I finally called them and they said that they will ship orders between 5-7pm CST. I hope that is true because my order still says "production."

I'm also waiting on my ring to ship! :angel: :angel: I ordered it on 2/8, but I had to ship my diamond to them. They received it on 2/12, and my estimated shipping date is 3/3! :shifty: My ring was in quality assurance for several days as they were examining my diamond (I guess), and my ring has been in production for 3-4 days now I think. I don't mind the waiting too much this time because I know the basket will be intricate. It also helped that I bought a little antique pear diamond last week, so she's been keeping me company as I anticipate my ring to arrive.
I'm excited knowing several others on here also ordered rings during the Valentine's Day sale and are waiting for their rings to come in like I am! Happy waiting! I can't wait to see your rings; I hope you love them! :wavey: :appl:

Another one waiting for a JA setting. I sent my ring in a couple of weeks ago. It was in QA for some time while they checked
my stone. We then went back and forth for a few days trying to figure out if the setting would be low enough for me. It
finally went into production with a 3/3 ship date...then I got the dreaded email saying that they were changing my ship date
to 3/10 because they were having to build a new mold/cast for my stone. I'm trying my best to be patient. :wink2:

All you other ladies need to post pics when you get yours so I can live vicariously in the mean time! :appl:

Hi, sparklysoprano!

Your James Allen ring looks very similar to the Cordoba I just ordered from Brilliant Earth. I'm in love with the style but concerned about possibly losing smaller stones. Are you insuring against stone loss?

Love your ring!

Robinelizaa, So glad yours shipped! : ) Mine just now shipped. I had called them again to see if my order would make it in time and customer service was fantastic. They told me it looked like it could possibly be delayed and so they called up to NY and asked them to "prioritize" my order so that it would go out today. Whatever they did, it finally shipped! ; )

Hi, Goodkarma! Thanks for asking. I do believe the Cordoba is the exact same ring as the one on JA. It looks to me like it is. I do have mine insured with Jewelers Mutual. But, I have not yet lost a stone and it's been a year. Can't wait to see yours!!! Please post when you get it. I think you will love it!!
