LOGR - out $50 if I return it

[T L]

If I return the setting in this thread

https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/new-logr-on-fence-about-it.105064/

He will subtract $30 for the micropave fee and $10 for the sizing fee, and it costs around $10 to return (insured and trackable). Is it still worth returning it???

 

[sparklestick]

I don''t think it looks like it has too much metal and I don''t know how much it cost but if you are not happy with it send it back. I just lost £20 sending back a radiator as it was not as I expected. I spent a whole night worrying about it and have to say since sending it back I am relieved. If you are stressing about it just send it back.

On a side note (bit of a hijack) I just got a green amethyst ring I bought on Ebay. Not expensive but really light and not the sparkle I am looking for. It is for a right hand ring and I want a sparkle gem cushion. I keep thinking if I send it back and get my money back is it better to wait and get an LOGR for my birthday.

Tourlamine_lover I really respect your taste and eye for quality and would like your opinion.

In fact having typed that makes me think that you know what you are talking about and if that LOGR setting is not rocking your world then send it back.

How much did you pay - I remember you did a BIN which was less than you expected... how much cheaper is cheap?

If you paid $100 then no I would not return it.

If you paid $1000 then I would return it.

What are the % losses looking like to you?

 

[T L]

I paid $320

 

[CharmyPoo]

I would just keep it. Seems like you will be loosing so much but I am bad at keeping things I don''t like.

Do you think you can recoup your money if you put a stone in it and sell it as a completed ring?

 

[luvmyhalo]

I would keep it for sure. For $320, it''s a beautiful RHR!

Here''s some pictures of it next to LOGR halo that I love with the rubellite in it. Do you see how/why I think the diamonds on top are a bit disappointing.

Here's a side view, the diamonds along the shank are larger and more sparkley. This is precisely why I'm on the fence with it. Well, now that I am about to lose $50 by sending it back, do you think it's worth keeping, even with the lack of sparkle on the top?

Sparklestick,
I agree, send it back, and thank you for the kind words.

I would send it back and just think of the $50 as a sunk cost

Might as well get the rest of your money and save some more to get a better LOGR. I don''t know if you do the same, but if I buy something and I''m not too fond of it, I never end up wearing or using it.

 

[bling addict]

I''m a bit the same as BEG in that if there is something about a piece that bothers me, then I focus on the problem everytime I wear it, so may not wear it as much...if you will focus on the aspects that bother you every time you wear it, then you might be better off getting your $270 back...

 

[mochi]

Stinks, though that he is charging so much to send it back... but if you''re not going to wear it and enjoy it, I have to agree with the others.

TL, how did I miss this rubellite? It''s gorgeous!!!

I agree with the others regarding your setting dilemna. If you''re not happy with it, you probably won''t use it. Might as well get your money back and get another setting that you really want.

You are very sweet. I still cannot wait to see your "peachy precious" set. That will be jaw dropping I''m sure.

Thank you! You are way too kind.

I am hoping to get it this week (crossing my fingers). And I hope I will be happy with the setting, because I don''t want to have to send it back to get fixed.

The wait is unbearable!

Have you thought about what you are going to do with your setting?

I''m returning it, he might give me a partial refund for the setting fee since I''m a repeat customer. I''m just waiting to hear back from him to confirm in writing the total refund amount so that we''re on the same page. I''ll keep you posted.

Please post lots of pics when you get that gorgeous diamond ring back!! How exciting.

 

[sparklestick]

I think you did the right thing. Looking at the new pictures I completely see what you mean about too much metal.

I have decided that I am going to give the green amethyst to my sister in law for her birthday and ask my husband for a Leon Mege for my birthday!! Ok maybe I will get a LOGR but I can hope!

Well, that will be a beautiful birthday present. How nice!! I''m still drooling at the rhapsody setting at Knoxjewelers, but I have to get a stone for it first.
