My DH and I went tho Smyth Jewelry store in Baltimore today b/c it has the reputation of having everything.
Has anyone been? We thought it was just okay. We were looking for an upgrade to my original wedding band and we wanted to see at least 2 tcw. in a five-stone diamond ring with a minimum color of E or F and VVS-1 to VVS-2.
They didn't have anything reasonably close, but the thing that bothered me most was the atmosphere. It was a like a giant "box" store (think Best Buy for jewelry). SAs were walking around with head sets and they were so slovenly dressed at best.
The weirdest thing was they served little bags of popcorn! It was like being at the circus. I didn't care for it at all. And sadly, I didn't see a ring I liked either.
