My boyfriend attempted to buy an antique ring on this website--paid and received a confirmation number and everything. He was then called a few days after such a LARGE purchase and told that a dealer came in and purchased the ring with several others a few days earlier and they did not get a chance to take it off the website.
After about 6 months of searching, we had found the one! The owner would not tell us who had bought the ring and insisted we didn't want to pay the fee that this dealer would charge--isn't that up to us!?? He instead insisted we buy a similar, yet $2K more expensive ring from him. He was RUDE, ARROGANT, DEMEANING, and PATRONIZING. He claimed it wasn't good business to tell us who he sold it to. If his business does so well then why would it matter if we bought this ring from the new dealer? After having that discussion, I surely will NEVER buy a ring from Isreal Rose aka New York Estate Jewelry.
DO NOT BUY FROM ISREAL ROSE!!!
