I mean if he wants Tiffany go through Tiffany, but this Spence plays sounds ridiculously shady to me. Witholding information on the stones, and inhouse grading? Forget it!

I'd have to agree... We left so convinced. But I don't like going somewhere and them trying to convince me of something. Especially when they keep saying that other places say " this is the one for you", and they don't do that, yes I specifically said I wasn't comfortable with an SI( my brothers fiancé has an SI, I and its just not for me... That's all I'll say about that...) and she was pushing the sI, saying its the most sought after grade... Well I don't want a slightly included diamondiamond war colorless diamond, I want the colorless... Or at least a G. She just wouldn't listen.

The thing I liked was that if the center stone falls out, they replace it at no cost...

Umm SI is not the most sought after. That is a lie. No offense to anyone who has one.

I know I didn't think it was! Again no offense, but I don't want an sI. You can see a black spot because it's either a deep cut, a carbon bubble or an actual inclusion on the one my brother got...

Not a good situation. I'd walk entirely away, and share with your boyfriend why you prefer he either stick to his Tiffany plan or go online with another vendor. If he wants help, join us and we'll help him!

Black crystals can be seen in many grades above an SI1, just fwiw. And a poor cut in any clarity grade can have all sorts of ew going on.

There isn't a "specific sought after" anything.
 
So now you know you like the larger solitaire and not to buy it from Spence! Learning experience and all that, and you got a good visual on what appeals to you. Good luck!
 
So I'm not that active here on TPF but have been searching forums regarding the soleste/sola for a while now. I too was uncertain between the yellow and the white because I also felt the white was more appropriate for an e-ring. Needless to say, I allowed my fiancé to choose my e-ring for me between a few styles I liked and he proposed on NYE with a yellow soleste! I am so extremely pleased and it is absolutely beautiful. I'm so happy he chose the yellow for me because I just couldn't make that choice between the two. Of course if you're leaning toward the white then that's the one you should get. I personally thought I really wanted the white but there's something so special and uniquely beautiful about the yellow. I hope this helps!!

Congratulations!! Pictures please!!
 
I got engaged yesterday to kick off my birthday week!
I have been in love with the Tiffany Soleste since I tried it on 3 months ago. I looked at rings at Cartier and reputable jewelers in our area, but always went back to the Soleste. I am SO thrilled, could not be happier!
My ring size is 5, color F and VS1 clarity.
