I went to Unclaimed Diamonds yesterday with my fiance, and believe me, I almost threw up I was SO nervous. I was terrified I'd find nothing and leave empty handed, and believe me I almost did. We worked with the owner of the store, very nice and VERY patient with indecisive me! FYI lay aways are made on Saturdays, not Tuesdays, but he pretty much said ""What the hell, why not!"" and helped us personally rather than shuffling us to someone else.
We saw A LOT of rings, he helped stick to our budget, and they were beautiful but 1 ring really caught my eye online and as soon as we walked in the door. I just kept comparing everything to that, and as we were about to leave, being sure that THE ring was way to too expensive, I finally said, ""If I don't atleast see that ring, I'll be surely disappointed!"" So he pulls it out and we discover it's only $400 over budget, and when I say love at first site, I mean it! I was hooked.
Our budget was supposed to include a wedding band with the engagement ring, but now that my heart said ""To hell with the damn budget I love this one!"" the owner included a wedding band as well as my fiance's wedding band for an incredible price when you consider the value.
We got a brilliant cut 14k white gold engagement ring with a .80 center eye clean stone and .15tcw in the band with a 14k white gold .18tcw wedding band that matches perfectly! My fiance has a beautiful satin finish wedding band with shiny white gold edges. My ring alone is worth more than what we paid!
Thank you so much Unclaimed Diamonds, had I gone regular retail we wouldn't have afforded such a beautiful and impressive engagement ring, let alone all three rings!
