We can't think of another purchase category beyond jewelry where the reputation and honesty of the seller is more important. Do all you can to investigate the business practices of the jeweler whether you are buying precious stones, gold, platinum or claddagh platinum ring. We suggest that you look into the store's standing in your town. If the jewelry store is a member of any trade organizations, determine what they are and investigate the requirements to belong. The BBB is an excellent source of investigation on a business. You will want to deal with a store that has a well trained staff to include gemological education.

That having been said, getting everything represented in writing is very important. Lastly, wear that jewelry or claddagh platinum ring often and enjoy it.
