My experiences at International Diamond Center have been positive. Anna was friendly and a great salesperson to work with! I had to replace a piece of jewelry and worked directly with Veronica. You can tell she is passionate about her job and making sure customers are educated and happy with their purchases. She made the replacement process seamless. Highly recommend IDC for any of your jewelry needs! read more

International Diamond Center -- BEWARE. If you value your jewelry, your money, or basic honesty, read this before you trust them with anything important. Three years ago, I purchased my two-tone wedding band from them. It was my perfect ring -- white-gold center channel, bright diamonds, and a gold rope design on each side. A few months later, I took it back just to get it cleaned... and the cleaning ruined the ring. They admitted it happened because of the way the rope detailing reacts during their cleaning process and replaced it. Fast forward to this year -- I needed my ring sized up, and I made it extremely clear: "Do NOT clean my ring. Only size it. Last time you cleaned it, you ruined it." I repeated this multiple times. When I returned to pick it up... They cleaned it anyway. And ruined it AGAIN. But this time, instead of taking responsibility, they tried to blame lighting and camera angles, even though all my pictures were taken: * in the SAME store * in the SAME lighting * in the SAME exact spot The difference is not subtle. Anyone can see it. Then they told me the ring is no longer made and that I would have to pay out of pocket for a custom rebuild -- even though THEY damaged it. Not once. Not twice. Not three times. FOUR TIMES. This most recent ring they handed to me -- the one I refused to accept -- was the FOURTH time they attempted to fix their mistake, and they expected me to walk out with a ring that looked nothing like the one my wife placed on my finger on our wedding day. Compare the photos yourself (attached): * The gold ropes are flatter, less detailed, and look almost melted down * The width is thinner like it was over-polished or over-worked * The overall craftsmanship does NOT match the original This isn't "lighting." This isn't "angles." This is the result of their work -- and their refusal to admit it. I've been extremely patient with them over the years because they did replace it the first time. But after ruining it again and trying to make ME pay for their mistake, I'm done. If your ring has sentimental value, or if you want a jeweler who stands by their work, go to literally any other jeweler. International Diamond Center will ruin your ring and then try to convince you that you imagined it. Let's also talk about the great communication... this happen on October 28th. I was promised the ring was ordered and etc... I had reached out... left on read and then I reached out again on December 2nd and got this new answer. You guys are a fuckin joke read more

I had a great experience. I got valued for the jewelry I was trading in fairly and received a good amount of trade in value if I bought in store. I was greeted with lots of smiling faces. Gavin Stamey helped me find a piece of jewelry that I loved and was very helpful and bright. It was a great experience and there was great energy in the store. read more

My other half and I searched and searched for the perfect wedding bands, and Melissa made the entire process so easy! The band my other half wanted had actually been discontinued by the maker, and we were so discouraged. But Melissa went above and beyond -- within an hour, she did everything in her power to track it down and get it ordered for us! We are beyond grateful for her dedication, communication, and determination. If you're looking for someone who truly cares and will go the extra mile, Melissa is your girl! read more

Went very well! Sold some jewelry to them and they were very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend

I had an issue but the management called quickly and made it right. Adjusting the rating and appreciate that they reached out.

Ryan was unprofessional. I specifically asked him to Not text my gf now fiancé about how the ring shopping was going. He continued to and almost ruined the surprise engagement. His actions led me to purchase the ring elsewhere read more

I spoke to a woman on the phone and asked if they buy diamonds and she assured me they were interested. I brought my diamond with perfect cut, color, and clarity. The man told me "princess cut isn't in style right now" and he would only give me $500 for a diamond worth $6,000. This place is terrible! If you're selling your jewelry go somewhere else! read more

Service was thorough yet efficient. Olivia was super helpful and kind. Would definitely return.

I had such an incredible experience in the Clearwater International Diamond Center. The entire team was so kind and supportive, and took the time to help me figure out what I wanted without pressuring me towards the most expensive items. I definitely would recommend IDC for all your fine jewelry needs- I wouldn't shop anywhere else! read more

Amazing store great prices and the most professional security officer I've ever seen.

Don't trust IDC with your big purchase in your big moment! Untrustworthy, will nickel and dime you, and offers little selection. For the men and women reading this, don't waste your time with IDC. If you are in the military, I also do not recommend. Ultimately IDC ruined my engagement in Hawaii. With 3+ months advanced notice, IDC sent me the wrong cheaper version of the ring. Wrong material and a cheaper quality of material. They blamed the ring company. They attempted to make it right but the damage was already done. I had to move my engagement. The only reason I didn't push for a full refund was because it was the ring my fiancée wanted. IDC sent me a fraction off the price of the ring and gave a credit off a future purchase. A year passed and I somehow decided to give IDC a second chance to shop for wedding bands. (to use the credit). When trying to make the future purchase, we were at final checkout and I presented the gift card. The attitudes changed and they then magically stated it could not be used with items that the representative gave a discount on. This is not a term written on the credit note I received. If a company sends you the wrong ring, ruins your engagement, and doesn't stand by their word when trying to make it right, how can you trust that the ring they gave you is what they say it is? As I said, For the men reading this, don't waste your time with IDC. It's stressful enough picking out a ring for the person you love and financing, and I lost years on my life dealing with their process. If you have expensive taste, they barely have any selection. If you disregard everything I say, and still go with IDC anyway, ask for Nabeel Kandah. He is knowledgeable and the best person my fiancée dealt with when trying to use our credit for the third and final time. Cannot recommend IDC. Go with a larger more trustworthy brand, especially when making your big purchase, for your big moment.

Today I had the most HORRIBLE experience at IDC in Clearwater with Chad. After spending more than 250k in two of their stores. I went to buy 43 Ounces of gold. I wasn't happy with how this animal treated me so I told Chad I wasn't purchasing anything from him. He began to raise his voice. Eventually screaming at the top of his lungs. He displayed himself as being immature and cowardly. Thank God my mother was with me and witnessed this. I highly suggest everyone to ban these amateurs. They should not be in business They are the BIGGEST LYERS I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. read more

My boyfriend and I stopped in yesterday to get some information about engagement rings and see the selection. From the moment we walked in the store, Chris' customer service was top notch! He was so knowledgeable and helpful during the entire experience. Thank you Chris and IDC! read more

My partner and I visited the store on March 22 to look at engagement rings. We were immediately greeted by a salesperson and had a very good experience looking at the different options. Since I hadn't purchased the stone yet, the sales person made an appointment for me to come back the following month to purchase the setting. He specifically scheduled my appointment for the weekend of their semi annual sale so I could get a discount on the ring. I showed up at the store for my appointment on April 26 and looked at the setting my partner picked out. I noticed the price was $500 higher than it was in March. I had taken pictures of the ring and tags during my first visit so I knew exactly what to ask for when I came back. As a result, I knew for a fact the price was different. I made a comment about it to the sales person and explicitly asked if the price was marked up for the sale. He assured me the store doesn't do business that way and told me the increase was due to a rise in the price of gold. The sales person must've double-booked himself because a few minutes later he abruptly passed me off to another sales person and went to help a couple who had just come in. The person he passed me to rung me out and I left the store. However, I still felt a little confused about the price and it was making me uneasy so I called the store on my way home and inquired again about the large increase. Once again, I was told this was due to the increased price of gold. I also made another call to the store because I noticed the item number on the receipt was different than the item number on the ring and wanted to make sure there wasn't any kind of mix up. I spoke to the woman who checked me out and she explained that those numbers are always different. She made a comment that 'she's pretty good and her job' and 'knows what she's doing', which I'm only mentioning because those comments ended up being ironic since there actually was a mishap with the order. Later that day, I went directly to the website for the ring brand I purchased and noticed the exact same ring was listed on their website at $250 less than what I paid at IDC. I immediately texted the salesperson I had the appointment with to let him know about the price difference and ask why I was charged more. He looked into it and said they charged me for an 18k gold ring instead of 14k gold ring and he would work with the manager to get me a $200 refund. I was still a little confused because the price I paid was less than the price of the 18k ring listed on the brand's website and my receipt reflected 14k. Someone from the store called me to issue a refund and I asked why the refund was only $200 when the price difference was $250. The person I spoke with put a manager on the phone who adjusted the refund. I asked the manager about the price discrepancy and she said she would ask the brand rep who happened to be in the store that day because of the sale. After a brief hold, I was told that the price on the brand's website was actually a sale price - but they were going to honor it. That was a red flag to me because I'd already been told that this brand does not do any kind of sales outside of events like the one at IDC. I also called the brand's flagship location, and they confirmed that I should've been charged the price listed on their website, not the higher price I paid at IDC . I ultimately decided that I did not feel comfortable with the situation and drove back to the store, spoke to a manager (not the same one I'd previously spoken to on the phone), and requested that my order be canceled and refunded. He obliged and was very apologetic. However, this was the first time someone actually apologized. While everyone I interacted with prior had been polite, they did not apologize or take accountability for the situation. Overall, the experience was very disappointing. From the salesperson seemingly double-booking himself to being overcharged (with multiple explanations as to why), I felt there was very little attention detail and an overall lack of professionalism. read more

What an amazing and talented staff with exceptional inventory to browse. Ryan and Sal were patient and great listeners. They designed my ring within our budget which exceeded my expectations! read more

What an absolutely wonderful experience. My now fiancé took me to IDC recently to let me pick out a Diamond and setting. We were greeted the moment we walked in by friendly sales associates. Our sales associate really to the time to figure out exactly what I was looking for and showed us a handful of beautiful diamonds before we decided. I really enjoyed that there was absolutely no pressure to purchase. Our sales associate was extremely knowledgeable and so patient as I asked him to show me nearly 20 bands after we decided on the center stone. (Sorry again lol) I didn't see the final product until he proposed and I was BLOWN away. It was more beautiful than I ever imagined. They did a wonderful job expanding the prongs to make sure the center stone safely fit in the setting. I look forward to returning to purchase the band and a wedding band for my fiancé! Thank you again for making it so easy and pressure free! read more

I purchased my fiancée's engagement ring from IDC and had an amazing experience. The customer service was truly impeccable and Chris did everything that he could to make the ring that I had in mind a reality. He took the time to take me through the entire store with the goal of finding the perfect ring for my fiancée and I! Chris and the staff really made this purchase a memorable and smooth experience, and we will be back in the very near future! Thank you everyone at IDC, and Chris for your care and attention to making my proposal very special!! read more

"I came into the International Diamond Center expecting a premium experience, but left feeling like I'd wandered into a pricing trap. Sure, the customer service was fine, but it's almost as if they're trained to distract you from the jaw-dropping price tags. Every item seemed vastly overpriced, and the markups were laughable for what they offered. IDC seems more interested in draining your wallet than providing genuine value. Save yourself the time--and money--and look elsewhere. This place is a masterclass in overpriced mediocrity." There should be an option for zero stars as far as a rating. I wouldn't send my worst enemy here. Yes, it was that bad!!! read more

Visited International Diamond Center on Ulmerton and met with Veronica to look at engagement rings. She was absolutely wonderful, so patient, knowledgeable and personable. I went in kind of knowing what style I was looking for but she was more than happy to show me any style/color I wished to try. They provided complimentary water, soft drinks, champagne, and bottled beer! Veronica took the time to explain the differences in color, cut and clarity while keeping a budget in mind. After looking at a few diamonds and still wanting to see more, she went back and got a few more to look at. She explained financing and payment options while again being respectful of a budget. When I was concerned about upkeep, cleaning and inspections, Veronica made sure to make us aware all of that would be included with our purchase. If I ever wanted to upgrade IDC would give 110% for my already purchased ring. I would highly recommend International Diamond Center, specifically Veronica for anyone looking for their dream engagement ring! read more

I was in there looking for something very specific I had one person who knows he seemed uppity was able to answer my questions about several different types of jewelry while everyone else stood around and looked at me you were turned their heads as if I wasn't there and I didn't get a warm and fuzzy feeling about being there and it was rather inappropriate for whoever this young girl was to be standing there talking about her personal affairs as I left the building I guess it's more important to stand around and talk about your personal life or act as if you don't see the customer then to give good customer service....but it's all good, I just went to a different jewelry store on the same street and purchased my items there. Displays just missed out on a significant sale. read more

Choosing a ring to symbolize commitment and marriage is usually no easy task for a female. From its solid reputation and what I researched about it, I knew that International Diamond Center was the only choice for my husband and I to shop at. International Diamond Center is the best place in the area to get quality, high end jewelry and watches in my opinion. I appreciate their business model and I cannot say enough great things about their staff. I was given stellar service from the time I walked in the door. Michael Hanikeh went above and beyond to ensure I received my dream ring. He kept great correspondence with me regarding the ring ordering process and also showed care and compassion with my situation. Michael is a phenomenal sales sales rep for IDC and allowed me to feel at ease during the process. I was surprised to learn that these sales people do not work on commission! I felt relaxed and confident about the whole process. I would be remiss not to mention the excellent jeweler they have on site. Not only did he rush to size my ring the day it came in he set it in record time (and I was told that only one jeweler was there the day the work was done when there are normally two)!!! I now have a ring that is as unique and beautiful as my husband and a stunning wedding band to match. :) I would definitely and without hesitation shop at International Diamond Center again. The service and quality are unmatched. Thanks so much Michael and IDC for the rings which I adore. read more

We went to the location on Ulmerton Road to upgrade my ring for our 20th anniversary. We were quickly helped by Nabeel who was patient and kind showing us our options, and finding exactly what I wanted. We had no problems, were treated well, and found a gorgeous ring that I love so much. I had it cleaned today for the first time in two years since our purchase and had the same quality experience and man does it look like new. Thank you Nabeel! We will be back for sure when we need anything else. read more

Why 4 stars? Because I don't know a ton about rings, but I felt at ease here. --- --- --- I normally try my best to abstain from rating businesses against their competition in my reviews. It's kind of tough here, because I can only compare my experience with the only other jewelry store I've been in. This happens to be IDC's neighbor, Gold & Diamond Source. Gold & Diamond Souce was incredibly pushy. It was like I was buying a knock-off watch in Chinatown in NYC. I had the finance paperwork thrust into my face before I had even begun to agree upon making a purchase. I was told, "we give you VIP discount," about 30 times while I was eyeballing my options. Well... no you aren't giving me "VIP discount" because you don't know me. If you gave "VIP discount" to every customer that you talked to for eight seconds, you wouldn't make a lot of money. We eventually told them that we weren't going to purchase from the first place we looked, so we drove next door to IDC. This was a 180 of our first experience. Our sales man was more insistent about our budget than we were. He advised against some of the higher-priced diamonds, and was incredibly laid back throughout the whole process. I ended up buying an engagement ring for about $300 less than the one GDS was offering me. Plus, my new fiancé thinks her ring is the best thing in the history of the planet Earth. I don't know a thing about diamonds, but she gets tons of compliments, so we must have done something good. We haven't had it appraised yet, but once we do, I might be upgrading to 5-stars. read more

My husband and I went here for our wedding bands and hands down, best decision ever! We were first assisted by Alvin and then Michael eventually took over as we made several trips shopping for our perfect bands. Both were very friendly and welcoming, but Michael really went above and beyond with us! My husband and I are both extremely particular and he was so patient and helpful throughout the whole process. Michael worked with my husband when it came to negotiating price and he really gave us a steal! I even had them reset my engagement ring into a more Tiffany style setting with a slightly thicker band and it came out perfect!!! Let's talk about wedding bands! I couldn't love mine more! I wanted a 7 stone shared/uprong setting and they custom made it to perfection, Michael even showed me during one of our visits the diamonds he hand picked for my ring along with the wax mold. My husband's band was exactly what he asked for and we had a short timeframe to get them in before the big day and they delivered and even engraved his band in time with our wedding date. (Now hubs has no excuse to forget our anniversary lol) We're so happy we went to IDC and their lifetime warranty was very important to us. We love that they have multiple locations which is very convenient for the future! I truly want to thank IDC and Michael for all of their help and for making it a fun process too! read more

If you want the typical snobby jewelry experience come here. I walked in and was told I needed the pick up slip. Which I wasn't told I needed when I dropped of the jewelry, but that's fine. After finding it I couldn't find the sales rep who told me to get it. I stood there for about 10 minutes waiting for someone else to assist me. Finally I flagged someone down. They then gave me a hard time about getting a box for my ring after they broke it. Mind you they had no problem with kids running around and jumping all over the jewelry cases. The ring was fixed so they got the job done. But the experience left a bad taste in my mouth. Won't be buying diamonds here again. read more

I took my heirloom 2CT solitaire diamond ring in to see if they wanted to purchase. I know what I have based on a recent GIA Appraisal.....the buyer fumbled as if he had no clue what he was doing. Back and forth texting to someone...he was clueless! Bashed the diamond to say it was cracked and would need t be re-cut if they purchased it, TOTAL BS! Offered me $2500-$3000. Ha! My recent GIA Appraisal shows the diamond is a VVS1 clarity and F color...my GIA appraisal is $25,252.00 !!!! RUN from these people!!!!! NOT honest rip off people! read more

It's wonderful and positive experience we had with Chris Hernandez at IDC. The exceptional customer service he provided. Helping my daughter with her first special ring is undoubtedly a memorable moment, and it's great that Chris made it even more special. Thank you to him and to Helen Barrott who recommended him to help us. read more

When you walk into any jewelry store you are immediately swarmed by sales people and just like at a car dealership or a high end clothing store, they want your sale - they want the commission. And I HATE that! GET OFF ME, I'll tell you if I'm interested in something. Don't follow me around or keep talking to me distracting me from what I'm looking for! I found IDC to be very different, it was very low key and comfortable. No one chased me down and I was free to look at every single case without someone on my back! THAT was nice. It wasn't until we asked questions about a particular piece, someone always there to assist showing you anything you want.... Although I didn't find anything in the cases that I was interested in at that time (well there was one set that was unique and absolutely fabulous which I will keep in mind for the future......), we opted for a custom made piece - which we had shopped around for over the last 2-3 years from 2-3 different places and agreed on a price that was ever so slightly higher than the rest for twice as much gold and included VS, colorless diamonds in this design. None of the other custom designs included stones and we're talking just a few hundred dollars more in this new design. And I cannot wait to see it! When I get it, I may update this review. So far I'm happy with the service and really like the no pressure environment. Very important to me. read more

Do NOT sell gold and diamonds here! I was waiting over 30 minutes (with people not wearing masks walking by me) to be told my grandmothers diamond watch was worth $140.00 less than other places. You will not be treated kindly, fairly or safely! read more

Rita is amazing. I highly recommend seeing her here. My now husband, went in to get an engagement ring for me and she picked out the most perfect ring for me.

We came back together to get our wedding bands and it's all perfect! read more

My fiancé and I went to IDC to purchase my engagement ring due to their esteemed reputation in the community and surrounding cities. We had heard great things not only from reviews but our friends and colleagues as well. I fell in love with a three stone ACMB style Henri Daussi, but we failed to put down a deposit and lost the ring. My fiancé felt terrible we lost the one I wanted, so he took the time to hand select a loose diamond from IDC and he placed a special order for the same setting, just using the diamond he bought. Worked out better for me because the diamond I got was significantly larger and deeper than the first ring! Henri Daussi took a very long time to turn around the setting, over 5 weeks. Once we finally received the ring, it turned out to be terribly crafted, to be frank. My fiancé and I have been together over 8 years and We both have waited a long time for this perfect moment with the perfect dream ring given to me by my perfect dream man. So when we noticed all the craftsmanship flaws, including two missing diamonds from the main halo, I flew into a fiery frustrated rage. Brian, the VP of IDC himself, took my phone call, heard my complaints and responded. I must say I was impressed by the passion he carries for his family's business- it is contagious. He personally met with my fiancé and me the next day, saw the flaws in the setting for himself, simply did a swap with one they had on hand in their display case that, like fate, matched my diamond's measurements perfectly, and had it resized, all in under an hour. The difference in quality is night and day, the ring is absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous and when anyone sees it for the first time the most common thing we hear is, "That ring is stunning!" Couldn't have done it without the kindness from Bobbi from the beginning helping alleviate my anxiety since we all know buying a ring is a stressful experience no matter what, the salesmanship of Kelly and Michael who worked with my fiancé on pricing to make me a happy woman, and Brian for fixing a vendor defect with professionalism, charm, lightning speed, and kindness. We look forward to continuing to do our jewelry business with IDC in the future and will recommend others to as well. read more

Complete scam artist!! They say they don't mark up their prices but yet I talked them down $1700 and engagement ring. So THe setting was one price and the diamond was another and they're sneaky ways they took 1700 off the diamond and didn't discount the setting . Because their policy is that you can get your money back on the diamond in 30 days but not the setting.Then when I offered to sell it back to them they only offer me a total of $1300 with the setting and diamond. I paid 3500 which it should've been $5200 on the original price now it's only worth $1300 90 days later. Stay away they will screw you. read more
