    Absolutely fab representative that came out from that "kissing" company. Chosen our rings and hoping to book within a week when we have the deposit!! They are simple elegant rings with a edging on them. I cant have diamonds as im a nurse but these are beautiful :) xxx

    it works out at 690 for both rings including postage and packaging. it depends what your after hun, mine is in 19 carat n hubbys is 9ct. if your after both in 9 carat then it would be much cheaper. they are definitely the nicest rings iv seen and they have a life time thing where you can have them resized or polished if they get scratched which is ace xx

    Think we're defo going to sort out a meeting with them...our budget on rings may have to be slashed from £1000 to £600 due to funds lately and although Si just wants a plain band, I want one with diamonds in so really need to investigate if it's possible

    Sijen - maybe think about getting the rings, and then having the diamonds added later? That's what we've done - we have matching rings and next year I am going to have diamonds put in around it. Dan is thinking of having diamonds too!

    e have decided to definitely go ahead with these rings. Having looked at other jewellers their prices do not compare to what we will be paying for our rings and they are stunning!! Cant wait to phone the rep and get them ordered.. would be even better if i could win their 2000k give away competition lol!! xx

    Thanks for the vote of confidence Suzie Bear.

    We aim to give every customer the kind of service you have received and we get it right, first time, 99.5% of the time. One the few occassions where we screw up we always work really hard to get it right second time. We're working really hard to get the 'right first time' figure up to 100%. As many of you know we guarantee our rings for life so if ANYTHING goes wrong with the rings we put it right free of charge.

    They come round to my house and the guy they sent out was brilliant. The ring my partner wanted was not there (just typical of my partner to be the awkward one lol) app the company have not got an example as its £350 to get the ring made in silver, she wants white gold. Im a bit hesitant to get it without seeing it as if we dont like it we have paid for a ring that we can not use. Has everyone been happy with there rings from the company?

    our rep came round last night and wow there was load to choose from. I've got a white gold e ring and was worried about putting palladium with it as i've been told its fine but they explained that it would wear my e ring out so i went for their white gold ring thats mixed with palladium so that it doesn't need plating. We went over our budget though by £400!!! but hey you wear them a lifetime! The free gifts are good, you get 3 tiffany style heart necklaces and a best man keyring.

    We saw your comment Clarabella - thanks. We don't really do many engagement rings as we wanted to specialise in just Wedding Rings - but we have been thinking about Engagement Rings recently so you never know. Do you think we should?

    By the way everyone - don't forget its Fathers Day this weekend. We're going to do a GiveAway for the boys on our Facebook page this evening so get all your fella's to come over there and 'Like' us so they can enter.

    I think you should but it would be hard to advertise to potential h2bs as its not like they have a website like this you could advertise on or anything like that and you couldnt do a fair like the wedding fairs that you do. So that would be a hurdel to over come.

    Oh i was wondering i have a ringin my jewelery box that i dont like anymore and i was wondering if you do bespoke rings using old rings and/or using the diamonds?

    Hello again Clarabella

    We can use your 'old' diamonds or other stones but we can't use the metal because melting small quantities makes it very difficult to control the quality. GIve us a call with a bit more information and we''ll work out what we can do. By the way did your 'EJ' problem get sorted out?

    Mrs Mumford and Gem - let us know how you get on with your appointments! We love to hear your feedback. Do you know the name of the advisors who are coming to see you?

    Hi Smooch - I have a ring that I never wear becuase it's uncomfortable, would it be possible to have it made into another ring? We didn't get our wedding rings from you (not my choice). Just wondering if it would be possible and would you do it? Thanks

    Hi MelN

    As per my answer to Clarabella, unfortunately we can't use old rings to make something new.

    We find that metling small quantities of gold (such as old rings) doesn't give us good results due to the impurites and potentail for tiny air bubbles to be trapped in the gold. This would mean the 'new' rings would not be our usual standard and might not even pass the hallmarking tests.

    Unfortunately there are some high street jewellers who tell customers they will melt their rings down and make new jewellery but all they do is sell your old ring for scrap and buy in a new one. There have been several prosecutions about this in recent years but most of the time its very hard to prove.

    If you have jewellery with stones in that you would like us to reset we can do that. Other jewellers also offer this service.

    Hi Smooch - I did mean to use the stones to make a new ring, sorry I wasn't clear. Would I need to have someone come round to speak to me about it, or would you be able to give me a rough price if I could email pictures of the ring now, and what I want?

    PS - Sorry mrs_houghton_2012 to have hijacked your thread :-)
