Jewelry Store Experience (good)

[DiTomCruisers]

My wife  bought a tanzanite ring about 16 or so years ago (Kay's Fine Jewelry, KFJ).  One of the stones broke a few years ago and we had it replaced, they didn't charge.  Then a stone fell out a few months ago, we brought it back and they replaced the stone, again free of charge.  

 

She wears the ring every day, so it does get some hard use.

I'd be the first to complain if something went bad, but wanted to mention that twice we had a real positive experience with KFJ in St Martin.

Glad you had a positive experience.

When buying in the Caribbean, consider the purchase of a small portable gemstone testing tool, as some retailers are not 100% honest.

We have also had good experiences with Kay's and a couple of other SM jewelers. It is the way to go.
