Help choose! (ID jewelry vs Gemvara)

[ean]

So I wanted either a 7x.15 or 7x.20 stone ring in a trellis setting as my wedding band. I contacted Luann from ID jewelry and she quoted $2600 for 7x.20 because they need to have the setting custom made. Since it is a custom piece, there is a no return, no exchange policy which bothers me the most. The quality of the stones are:

F-G
SI
PS ideal quality

Then I found this Stanza band from Gemvara, 7x.20 in a trellis setting is $2255.http://www.gemvara.com/jewelry/seven-stone-stanza-band-3-5mm-gems/round-diamond-14k-white-gold-ring-with-diamond/mxmmg

Quality of the stones are:

G-H
SI
Ideal cut

They have a 101 day return policy and a year warranty.However, I can not find enough reviews or on hand pictures about this band from gemvara.

I want to stay around the 2k budget so idk which one to choose. Pls help

Since the Gemvera is returnable can't you just order it to take a look at it in person?

I would request a quote from Engagement Rings Direct. They will be a little more than IDJ, but close in price. See if they have an easier return/exchange/upgrade policy.

Is this for a standalone ring or to wear with an engagement ring? This is a great size for a standalone ring but they won't work very well with an engagement ring.

I would go with a vendor with proven workmanship and diamond quality. For me that would probably mean WhiteFlash although ERD would likely be fine as long as you specify the quality of stones.
