Hi friends!

I was doing my daily scroll for gems and treasures, when I found my 'once in a blue moon' wish list item... Under my budget. From a reputable, trust worthy jewelry store. In fact, it is WAY under priced in my opinion. She's VS clarity, 2.40 carats, S-U with a GIA report (that I can't see cuz it's upon request only). Listed as 'excellent' condition (she's 110 years old!)
She's large and in charge and obviously yellow tinted. Which I love. The setting is very ugly and scratched, but that's not important because I'd obviously reset it.

I would buy it RIGHT NOW, except that I am suspicious about the price, because it is seems too low. Is it damaged? Is there something I can't see?? Or is there a website error with the pricing?
They have pictures and videos of it and it looks perfect. Again, it's listed as excellent condition. But why is the price so low? (I don't want to list the price and I don't want to list the jewelry store cuz I don't want anyone to snap her up!)
The store doesn't list their return policy, so I am hesitant to buy it without talking to a live person first. But it's a holiday weekend and I don't want to wait until Tuesday, or lose this opportunity!

What would you do?!
 
Me, I’d buy it. I’m impulsive. Pay by credit card. That way it’s yours until they open after the weekend. Then if you discuss it with a person from the store and it’s not as expected, you can just cancel your payment.
 
It sold :( Wow that was fast. Thanks anyways though!
 
FWIW if the store doesn't post their return policy, I think you're much better off not having bought the diamond/ring ... legit online vendors prominently publish their return policies ... just my two cents.
 
I always think when things like that happen that it just wasn’t meant to be - here is hoping that the perfect item is just around the corner for you!
