engagement setting vendor

[Diamondchik]

I am wondering if anyone has any experience purchasing from the online vendor MySolitaire.com or if you know anyone that has? If so, how was your experience? I am thinking of purchasing the below set of an engagement ring and wedding band as I find the price fairly reasonable, but I have not really heard very much about this company on this forum.

Any comments or thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

How about getting a quote from them for a set, using their G/H VS stones, channel set wedding band 10 stones, .2 cts and an engagement ring with .16 cts? A lot of people have been happy with their quality and service.

What such a set (if pumped on steroids) could look like: http://www.thefacetscollection.com/item.cfm?item_id=3657

The one you posted didn't list a color or clarity, so I'd assume something like I SI2 (which Blue Nile uses) or worse.

Do you just need the setting? Or do you also need a center stone?

Oh, that Facets collections set is gorgeous!

I am just looking for a setting. I have a diamond from Bluenile.com that I am very happy with. I had a local jeweller make a solitaire setting for me and it did not turn out well. They messed it up and then tried to fix it, now it just kind of looks cheap. The craftmanship was not good and it was looking yellow within a week of having it (it is 18 ct white gold). So, I am starting over. I would like to get the wedding band too, so I know that it matches. I am having a hard time finding online vendors that sell settings and not the diamond.

When I look at the individual engagement ring setting that I am interested in in the link below on MySolitaire.com, it says that the diamonds are g or h colour, VS2...The prongs are also platinum.

Any more thoughts on this? Any suggestions for any other retailers that are reasonably priced for something similar?

Thanks

I have never heard of Mysolitaire.com. The facets links Julie gave you are very good and they have a great reputation around here for the quality of their settings as well as A+ customer service.
