Where to get my rings appraised?

Ladies where did you get your rings appraised. I did not want to use the same place we brought them from.

I'm in Queens so anywhere in Nassau is okay just do not want to go to far.

TIA

The woman there was very good. Originally, before FH gave me my ring there was a mix up with the diamond that got put in my setting-- it wasn't the same diamond FH paid for and she caught it and FH was able to take her report back to the jeweler (turns out it was an honest mistake, the jeweler was very upset with himself) and have it fixed and she reappraised the ring once he got it fixed for no charge. He was very happy there.

Definately check out the jewlery judge. He is awesome. He appraised my engagement ring and he did a fantastic job. We had papers with all the spec's on the diamonds and he accurately told us all the measurements and whatnot without looking at the information first.
