Certified Diamond VA/MD

[DMcD]

Has anyone here used or heard of Certified Diamond? They have two locations, one in Falls Church VA, and one in Rockville, MD.

DMcD,

Didn''t know you were in my neighborhood.

Yes, Certified Diamonds recently showed up in the strip mall I frequent on the Rockville Pike in Rockville. I went in briefly. He didn''t know from an IS or fair trade diamonds, but he had a thing or two less than kind words to say about Rappaport. I think he was probably the owner in the store.

Just fyi...also local is James Allen, possibly available by appointment. For a long drive, GOG on Long Island is available, too.

Just some other ideas.

To your original question, though, re Certified Diamonds, I have no real and substantive feedback.

Yeah, there are two guys that work/own it together. One is older and one is younger, the older one is usually in the Rockville office. What did he say about Rappaport?

What does this mean?
"He didn''t know from an IS or fair trade diamonds"
