I have not, but would not hesitate to buy from Jonathan. He is very knowledgeable and is an all around good guy so you will have a good buying experience with him.
Lots of people here have shopped there. Use the search box near the top of the page for things like ''Good Old Gold'', ''GOG'' etc. The boss there is a regular poster here under the name Rhino.
I have not purchased from him either. However, visiting GOG on Long Island and picking up a little something something is on my to-do list before I die.
Well, I haven''t actually bought anything from GOG (yet), but in dealing with a number of different vendors so far, Jonathon has blown me away with the speed and diligence with which he responds to my queries (no matter how stoopid or oddball!). Being new to diamond buying, let alone internet diamond buying, I couldn''t praise him highly enough.
I bought a H&As RB from GOG - we have are very pleased with the stone, and the service we received.
They are straight shooters all the way; VERY knowledgable and helpful.
I would not hesitate to buy from them again, infact I'm sure we will.
Feel free to PM me with questions.
I have. In fact I have purchased 2 stones. A 1.5ct round brillant, and in July a 2.0 ct round brillant. I recommend them and also send my friends there.
I''ve worked with Jonathan, Chas and Tim. Anyone of them can help you out with a stone. Enjoyed working with them!
Johnathan was one of only 2 vendors who were willing to do a special search for exactly what I wanted (a matched pair of 1/4 carat, superideal cut, side diamonds with Medium Blue fluoresence). NiceIce was the other vendor willing to search. Johnathan found them first. I believe 6 vendors were invited to search.
