You may want to see this necklace 'in person' before buying - it will be very, very tiny. But that may be what you're looking for. Yes, Tiffany is way overpriced, they're riding on their name. You can get something of equal or better quality (and size) elsewhere for less. But some just like to see that little blue box, and there's nothing wrong with that as long as the person is aware and willing to pay the premium price.

I love Tiffany but it can be quite a shock when you first go into the store and see how small some of the jewellery is after seeing items on the website.
 
like someone on here has said, if you are looking to buy a Tiffany necklace, you are are paying more for the name than the necklace itself. You'd also want to look at the necklace in person because from the looks of it, this may be tiny.

You can always go to one of those chinese shops, they offer better prices for gold/platinum necklaces. You'd end up with a better value than buying through Tiffany.

Good luck to your search! Your gf is one lucky gal. :smile1:
 
Yeah, the size of that pendant is pretty small, i think i saw it IRL when i was shopping for a diamond cross there. But the sparkle factor is crazy. But on the other hand, other places such as bluenile.com is where i'd go look for real quality jewelry w/o the sticker price. For reals, check out Bluenile b/c if i never knew about Tiffs, then probably most of my diamonds and jewelry would come from there. There are actual reviews from previous purchases that could help you make your decision too.

Good luck and keep us posted on your journey.
 
I just saw this thread: You did a great job picking that out at bluenile!

I was suprised that no one suggested Whiteflash to you though: if you ever need to buy her more diamonds (a girl can always use another one ;)) WF is a good place to look... here's one similar to you picked out, and they also do earrings, bracelets and rings.
