I've always like to come do my research here on purseforum, and it is from here where I discovered pricescope. I felt like I want to express how I feel about that site and how much I love TPF better here!
First of all, the people on pricescope are incredibly nice and helpful. I never wouldve learned that cut is the SO important, it is what creates the sparkle in diamond. I've always thought flawless, color. In reality, i'm quite colorblinded up to a certain color grade!
I wouldve never know what hearts and arrow is, and how amazing those stones are
i also discovered alot of online retailers which opened up loads of options while doing research, before, I've only heard of blue nile.
With all that said, recently, i've been researching about half eternity rings, DBYT and diamond stud earrings. When I do a search on pricescope, nearly every post where people ask about Tiffany, they will always tell them to go online and buy (white flash and brian gavin being the most popular). I think it is important to be well informed and one makes a decision based on the info you learned.
I've always been the one who looks for the best deal of everything. I will go out of my way, jump through loops to get the same item cheaper, even if it means putting alot more effort in. However, after thoroughly researched all my options, and now that i'm all grown up and can afford it, for the ring and DBYT, I went with Tiffany. I like their workmanship, i like the service I get, I like the whole package. Nope, no one will say, wow, your ring is gorgeous, where did you get it from? It's not that. It just that it makes ME happy and that's all it matter. I felt like most people posting question on there, people will respond like "with that money, you can go with much bigger rock on BGD, or you can buy 3 rings and wear them at the same time with change".
Also, they have a strange obsession with BDG. I got my earrings from them. They are gorgeous. But they all say how sweet and amazing Lesley is, I'm not sure if it's because they are buying big ticket items. But the CS i got from her is average. It's good, don't get me wrong, they are nice, responds to my email, but it's not AMAZING, out of this world like how they describe on pricescope.
On the other hand, when I search or post questions here, I find less of that "if you buy from cartier or tiffany, it's a rip off, you're buying the name" attitude. People seem like they get it here , that some people enjoy the whole experience and CS etc. Does this make sense?
I wanted to say this for a long time, but not sure if it's appropriate to address how i felt here. But i just want to let it out here and tell you all how awesome you guys are here!!!
