I’d create a scene at the store if I’d had bought a ring that had a prong break!

I live in Maryland, close to the Washington, D.C. border, and I thought local stores might charge a whole lot more than a store in Iowa. Also, the store in Iowa didn’t charge us tax, since we’re out of state. Originally I thought the savings on tax would make up for the cost of shipping. But now that we’re having to send the ring back and forth again it doesn’t look like the cost will even out at all.

Next time you bet I’ll be searching for a local jeweler. Not only will it save us money, it’ll save a whole lot of worry too.

Did you check prices for having it done locally at all?

For myself, being there in person and pricing things with them over the counter would have eased my worry.
