It might feel like driving all the way into downtown Seattle and finding parking would be a major…read morehassle, but my experience with Seattle Diamonds made it totally worth it. TLDR: Erin at Seattle Diamonds was able to create a ring that NO OTHER JEWELER COULD, and she did it within my budget! Here is the full story of my ring buying journey and how Erin at Seattle Diamonds came through where no other retailer could. I always do my homework when making a big purchase, so I started off shopping around and hitting up all the major chain retailers like Shane Co. and Jared's, etc. My future fiancé an I picked out a 3 stone style that we absolutely loved. However, I noticed a troubling trend where the larger, center stone often looked shadowed and darker than the side stones. This really bothered me, however, I continued to be told that this was just how this style of rings would work. I then took my search online to Whiteflash, thinking that they could better help me match the diamonds and that would solve the problem. However, I was ALSO told by them that this was just the nature of these three stone settings, and I would just have to settle for the center stone looking shadowed if I went with this setting. My future fiancé and I talked it over and decided that we would go with a solitaire setting instead. However, this took us back to square one with ring and setting styles. This is what brought us to Seattle Diamonds and how we met Erin. From the moment we stepped inside, it was clear that this wasn't a normal retail space, however, it was a beautiful, high-end office and Erin immediately set our mind at ease. She was friendly and easy to talk to and really made us feel welcomed. She showed us many settings and picked out a beautiful solitaire setting. However, over the course of chatting with her, we mentioned the three stone setting that we loved and the problem we had with the center stone being shadowed. Erin was shocked that we'd had such problems as she'd never heard of this problem before. I couldn't stop thinking about her reaction, even after we left and eventually emailed her further about it. I decided to try one more time to see if I could make this ring style work. Erin was AMAZING! She found a beautiful setting that was within our budget. She brought in loose diamonds to try until we found ones that matched and didn't create that "shadowed" look. I was blown away. After that, I paid a deposit on the rings, and then waited. Erin emailed me a 3D rendering proof for my approval, which I gave because they looked amazing. Then it was time to wait. These rings aren't just cookie-cutter "I have a empty band and setting on hand and we just pop the diamonds in and go". They are quality made to order and take some time. As they say with the "unattainable triangle": You have quality, price, and speed. You get two out of the three-but never all three. I picked the rings up about three weeks after approving the proofs and they were absolutely stunning. I couldn't be happier and on top of that, I got to surprise my (now) fiancé with the ring of dreams rather than the solitaire setting we were settling for. My experience with Erin at Seattle Diamonds was amazing and I couldn't be happier. She made the impossible happen and did it all within my budget! Thank you Erin for such an amazing experience. I'm so glad we found you. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Adrienne has a very gentle and friendly demeanor, and she is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about her craft. Our first meeting with her was our first-ever custom jewelry-making experience, and we walked away with deep confidence in Adrienne's skills, knowledge, and professionalism. During our appointment, Adrienne walked us through every step of the process, and also patiently shared a wealth of knowledge about the various stones, materials, and styles that we were interested in. She was never pushy, and was always respectful of our budget and tastes whilst giving thoughtful advice to guide our ideas along. Adrienne's commitment to sustainability and ethical jewelry-making was also something that was important to my husband and I. I was thrilled to learn that Adrienne utilizes recycled metals and ethically-sourced gems. I was so blown away whenever I heard her mention the names of the people who had sourced specific stones for her and list the exact locations where these stones came from. These little details made the process of designing our rings feel very human and personal, and I believe that they imbued our jewelry with a lot of warmth and memory, even before they reached our hands. After two custom jewelry experiences, I've developed a lot of trust in Adrienne and her team, and I look forward to working with her over years to come as I continue to grow my jewelry collection and fashion new pieces out of heirloom treasures.

I worked a lot with Danny and Andrea, and they were so patient with my questions and ring design planning. I never felt rushed and appreciated how one person would ask the other person for their input when it came to my questions, to ensure quality of the ring wouldn't be compromised while still accommodating all the modifications I asked for. Another reason I loved working with them is they create 3D wax models of rings once the design is made. If you are extremely attentive to detail as I am, you'll appreciate trying on and seeing a wax model of your ring in person before the real deal is made. I look forward to every time I visit, they are all sweet and truly care about creating something you'll love! Danny and Andrea, thank you for being so wonderful to work with.

Of course, wedding bands are such a delicate and personal item that you wear every day - hopefully for the rest of your life - so we were careful as we went to meet Wacek and get a quote and design. We called and he met us the same day allowing as much time as we needed to talk about our needs. Wacek represented the absolute pinnacle of customer service. If you're in the market for a diamond ring (or any ring for that matter), take it from us and don't waste time looking any further. Wacek will take his time to understand what it is your looking for, the timeline you're working with as well as the budget you've set, and get you exactly what you're looking for. Other jewelers quoted more than double what Wacek quoted and needed much more time, and we would have been just a number in line. This was a personal well cared for experience. Outstanding quality diamonds for a very fair price. He truly went above and beyond on more than one occasion to satisfy our requests that changed a few times, and we could not be any happier with the result! Wacek helped us every step of the way with very honest and helpful advice. He also kept his timing promise and delivery promise date (exceeding what he promised) - and that was a pretty exciting phone call for us. In the end, our wedding rings are simply impeccable. (we bought 2 custom designed wedding bands and had the engagement ring redone). Wacek was responsive, attentive, efficient, kind, professional and an all-around pleasure to work with. We will be posting pics after our wedding - for now it is a surprise! Thank you for helping make our wedding perfect Wacek! FIVE STARS

I cannot recommend doing business with WJD Exclusives based upon my experience…read more Over the course of days, I negotiated with the company through eBay regarding a customized Rolex. We exchanged multiple offers and counteroffers, with both higher and lower figures throughout the negotiation. Eventually, WJD sent me what appeared to be their final counteroffer through eBay. I accepted it immediately, completed payment in full, and even paid for expedited shipping. Only after payment was completed did the company contact me claiming that the counteroffer had been entered in "error" and asserting that they had intended to send a higher counteroffer rather than the amount actually transmitted through eBay. On that basis, they refused to honor the transaction. I'm extremely disappointed with how the situation was handled afterward. Rather than insisting upon a single outcome, I repeatedly proposed several commercially reasonable compromises, including resuming negotiations from our prior positions, purchasing additional much-higher valued merchandise as a good-faith gesture, and other business-oriented solutions in an effort to preserve what I hoped would become a long-term consumer relationship. Every proposal was summarily rejected. The tone of the communication also changed dramatically. After initially corresponding in a courteous and professional manner, the company began warning me not to contact ownership, threatening to document any attempt to communicate outside of eBay, referencing legal counsel, and declaring the matter closed. I found this especially disappointing given that I had repeatedly expressed my desire to resolve the matter privately, professionally, and without immediately involving eBay's dispute-resolution process. I informed them of the relevant consumer law and eBay's policies... their response was to imply legal action if I spoke of this experience and to potentially have my eBay account itself harmed. In my opinion, this is BEYOND unprofessional. As well, I refuse to be intimidated when I am not in violation of any law for telling eBay users (or anyone else) about my negative experience and their documented refusal to honor the sale and send the product which I lawfully purchased in accordance with eBay policies and buyer protections. My advice to prospective buyers is simple: if you negotiate through eBay's Best Offer system with this seller, keep screenshots of every offer, counteroffer, and message. If you receive and accept a counteroffer, be aware that the company may later characterize it as a pricing error and decline to complete the transaction if they have "Seller's Remorse". That was my experience and as a result, I have taken my business elsewhere and declined the several counter-offers they have made on other Rolex watches I had been negotiating a final price on with them. Trust is EVERYTHING in business and WORD is BOND. If you cannot count on the word and offered prices from a business on eBay then what is the point of even presenting products here with the option to "Make Offer"? When a seller sends a counteroffer through a marketplace, a buyer should be able to rely upon it. If a business later decides that its own counteroffer should simply be disregarded after payment has been accepted, that undermines confidence in the entire negotiation process. Based upon this experience--which I have NEVER experienced with a reputable seller outside of this case--I cannot recommend WJD Exclusives whatsoever. Buyers deserve to know exactly how this transaction was handled before deciding whether to do business with this company. There are other options here. I would strongly recommend looking into them: BUYER BEWARE!
