Hi ladies! FH and I both found diamond wedding bands we loved at Ultra Diamonds at Tanger Outlets in Riverhead. Everything was 80% off and then they had promotions like, another $200 off when you spent a certain amount. Found a diamond pave ring for $900, originally $7,000. Def worth checking out :)

Re: love my wedding bands!!
They had a fantastic sale when I was there a few weeks ago but we got rubbed the wrong way and left. The sales people were very nice BUT I picked out a tennis bracelet (day of jewelry). They had two of them, both supposedly two carats but one was a lot shorter than the other. Like just missing about an inch of diamonds...so we asked why and they said it was probably resized or something, with a piece taken off. I asked how one could have so many less links I guess they are??? Visibly less diamonds and be the same size and the guy said 'Good point, I guess it's not.' but he put it back under the tag that said two carats anyway. We didn't know that we could trust them so we left and went elsewhere.
I'm sure your rings are super beautiful and at a great deal, but I'd get it appraised just to make sure you got exactly what you paid for.

Hey, thanks for the info! I'm a little dissappointed, b/c I got it appraised and did get a good deal, but will have a hard time getting it resized smaller b/c it has pave diamonds and the prongs holding the diamonds will loosen.....keeping my fingers crossed in the meantime.

That's awesome! I love getting a good deal! Congrats! Oh, about the sizing, Ultra has a great jeweler that does work for them so I would call them and see if you can have it resized thru their jeweler. DId you buy the protection plan? if so then they will resize if free of charge for you. Def. look into it, they were really nice at the jewelry store that Ultra uses, I can't remember the name but they are on Montauk Hwy in the shirley area. they made a custom replica piece for me and did an amazing job, I highly recommend them.

That's awesome! I wasn't trying to be a jerk, I just wanted to say appraise it just because they were inconsistent with me. I'm sure you can find someone who has a way of resizing it. If not, you can always get a ring guard!

Re: love my wedding bands!!
Oh i didn't think you were being a jerk at all! I could have probably used your advice before making an impulse purchase anyways. :) Anyway, just for an update, the resizing is a little pricey, b/c they when they make it smaller, sometimes the prongs loosen and some diamonds fall out, so then they have to be replaced and the prongs tightened. But anyway, I'm just glad to have it :)
