When I went to the jewelry exchange to look for a one carat stone Mark Collins decided to bring out several stones and many of them seem like they were left over from  from the diamond mine junk bucket.  They seem to have so many inclusions in there they were pretty much useless in my book. I felt that they all had a rocket pencil price. If memory serves me correctly the last stone that he brought out had very little inclusions in it but the price if memory serves me correctly was almost $5000.   

 I believe after going to a Nother jewelry store on bell road that is W. Bell Rd. it took me 10 minutes to see if stone that was only $2600 with almost no inclusions in the stone was a one carat stone.   When I walked into the jewelry exchange somebody said something to a guy that was supposedly the manager I could not believe that he would not be able to smell what smelled like alcohol.   I know that it’s very hard for anyone to go out to a jewelry store and buy stone and make sure that they understand how to use a jewelers loop so they could look at the stone that they are thinking about buying.  Some sales people that sell jewelry jewelry stores will tell you they don’t have a jewelers loop that is a warning sign to stay away.  I encourage everyone before you go to any jewelry store of your choice make sure that you have your very own jewelers loop it could save you thousands of dollars.  

 If a jewelry store representative tells you they do not have a jewelers loop on hand or that someone stole it or that it was broken get up and walk out.  Some of these jewelry stores go overseas and they buy the last of the leftovers it drastically reduced prices because the stones have so many inclusions in them it makes them almost worthless and win a sucker goes into a jewelry store it does not know how to use a jewelers loop they are asking the sales rep to bend them over and pop them from the backside .

Before you go to a jewelry store of your choice go to Google and look up a place where you can purchase your very own jewelers loop it’s a magnifying glass that’s very small and very powerful so you could see any of the fogy  inclusions or any cracks or chips.  Find yourself a jewelers supply store and look into purchasing your very own diamond detector.   If you’re not willing to go out and buy your own dime and detector in a jewelers loop you again or asking to be screwed.

The owner of the jewelry exchange needs to visit the store that I’m talking about.   I’m writing this review because I feel I should not buy a stone from this jewelry store because I feel like I’m going to pay way more than it’s worth and I’m not going to get the quality that I wanted  without a bucket load of inclusions.

Make sure that you are willing to do your homework before you go to any jewelry store of your choice.....  that is extremely important and make sure you bring the needed tools so you can check out what you’re thinking about buying.  I know that there are a lot of jewelry stores that will sell what is called  a CZ  or a cubic Zircconia  which is nothing more than man-made diamonds or other words a fake diamond well you could use the terminology absolute junk.

Google the following phrase: 

How to tell the difference between a diamond and a Cubic Zirconia

Don’t be a idiot do your homework.  Be careful about some of the mall  jewelry stores because I went to one in a more as the lady show me a one carat princess cut she showed it to me it looked pretty nice excepted had a lot of inclusions in it would you want it almost $7200 for it.  My advice to you would it comes to buying jewelry be skeptical when you walk into any Mall  of your choice because if you don’t you’re asking someone to bend you over and take advantage of your backside financially 

I feel that I could never buy a  piece of jewelry from the jewelry exchange for my one experience.
