Fi and I decided to have my engagement ring re-set before we ordered our bands. We decided to use Elsa Jewelers after all of the wonderful things we heard about them.We changed the band by reseting the stones in platinum and adding 4 baguettes. Well when the ring finally came in Fi and I noticed that one of the baguettes was clearly yellow and had a very noticable scratch down the center. When we brought it to Elsa's attention she told us she couldn't notice anything but she agreed to change the stone. We noticed the problem when we picked up the ring on June 6th....now over a month later I was finally able to have the baguette switched. It was only supposed to take one week to get the baguette in....however....it took over a month. Everytime we called...it was always moved back another week. It didn't even take that long for the band to be custom made. In my opinion....we were put on the back burner because they already had our money and were probably annoyed that we weren't getting our bands from them...which is a whole other story. So anyway...just wanted to give you guys a heads up... I know alot of people have used them and love them.....just be careful and really look at the quality of stones they give you. Because they tell you the quality and color you will be getting....but apparantly you get something else

Re: Bad experience with Elsa Jewelers
That's awful! If I were I'd take it to another jeweler to see if you got what you paid for.

Re: Bad experience with Elsa Jewelers
Marcela...we did bring it to another jeweler....we actually brought it when it had the yellow stone just so that we could go back and tell Elsa that we knew the quality that she had given us was not what we asked for nor what we paid for. We then brought it again after she changed the stone and the other jeweler said that she did FINALLY put the correct quality and color stone in. It was just so aggrevating to have to go through this for so long.
