::Runs off to check it out::

 

[DLSecret]

Wow! Especially the setting! Just when I thought I was ready to place the order for the e-ring for my gf... How long does it take to ship the setting from Singapore to US?

Sorry, might possibly be stealing your setting

Hi there, no worry about "stealing" the setting, go ahead and use it if that''s what she likes

Hmm... it does say in their website:

How long does a package take to arrive at an international address? Is the package insured?

International packages take approximately 7 business days to arrive at the destination. All packages are fully insured.


From what I understand, that particular design is a standard design which they have in their inventory and shouldn''t take more than 2 weeks to have it ready.

If you are interested you can look for Isaac from Vivodiamonds.
Alternatively, they have a live chat or you could email them at your convenience.

Your diamond is gorgeous!!!! Congrats on finding what you want. I am still looking for a 0.75 carat diamond also in F color. How could I get in touch with Mr. Wink Jones? Please let me know.

Thanks!

 

[swingirl]

noneek, here is the link.

Wink Jones

The ACA F you posted is very reasonable. Are you looking for a larger size or higher clarity?

 

[noneek]

I am looking for sparkle. I don''t know much about buying the diamond online and it is difficult decision when you can''t actually see the diamond to determine whether it has fire in it or not.

I am very confused. Everyone gives me such a good advice and refer me to diamonds that reasonable in price yet I don''t have the courage to buy it because how do I know it will give me the fire that I so longed for.

Thanks! I emailed them about time frame and what size diamond will fit on this setting. They replied saying it will be about 2 weeks (cutting it really close) and the setting fits a 0.4 - 0.6 carat. They can make it for other sizes if needed (takes more time, I guess). I'll give them a call when they open, but at this point it looks like I'll be going with a regular ol' solitaire.

Congrats again!
