Finding a jeweler that you can trust is of utmost importance. Regardless of whether you are buying a pendant, watch, necklace or 3 stone ring setting. Get to the bottom of the store's reputation by asking those that have purchased from the store. A store's 'standing' in your community is an important factor to consider prior to making a purchase. See if they belong to any trade organizations which usually require strict adherence to good business practices before accepting a store for membership. Get a BBB report on your jewelry store prior to making any purchase. It is far preferable to deal with a company that have gemological and appraisal educations so you know that what they are saying is based on actual knowledge.
