Hi Everyone,
After spending months learning about the basic fundamentals of diamond cuts through PS I decided to buy my fiancee a ring. After reading all the stellar reviews, my fiancee and I set-up an appt. with Jonathan at GOG to select a H&A diamond and setting. When we got to the store, instead of meeting with Jonathan, we were directed to Amy (Jonathan was out sick). Needless to say, we were a little diappointed after driving out to meet the man we had heard so much about (no offense to Amy). While she spent a good deal of time with us, it seemed as though at some points she wasn''t really paying attention to what we wanted (at one point she brought a Si2 stone and started pitching me on it after I had told her our base clarity was VS2). After we found the right diamond for my fiancee(1.41 H&A, VS1, Color I),we proceeded to the choose a setting. This was particularly disconcerting process.
Since we wanted (not needed) the rock sooner rather than later, she showed us some used rings. We finally selected one and Amy told us it would be set the NEXT day. Later that night my fiancee unhappy with the fit (it was a little loose) and the fact that it was used wanted to order a brand new, slightly different setting in a different size.
