To all who are researching the purchase of a diamond: Let me wholeheartedly recommend Jay, at Maggy's Top Diamond (www.to-diamonds.com). I spoke with him over the phone (877.683.8181), and he was very courteous, quite knowledgeable, and wonderfully price-conscious. I told him my budget, and we discussed three different diamond rings that were far below what I was willing to pay. Only at my urging did Jay finally consider my entire budget, and the ring he delivered is spectacularly beautiful. Not only that, but at my request, the piece came very quickly - I placed my order on Wednesday and had the ring the following Monday. When I received it, I brought it and its accompanying diamond certificate to a local jeweler to have the ring appraised. The women behind the counter were stunned by its beauty. Upon examining the ring's diamond (with an electronic diamond tester, a size chart, and a loupe) and the certificate closely, the appraiser said, "this diamond is exactly what they told you it is." She then estimated the ring's value at 1.4 to 1.6 times more than Jay's price. When I told her what I had paid, she nodded her head and said, "You did good." My (now) fiancée loves the ring, and I love how it looks on her hand! Jay's considerate attention made a pleasure out of the headache-inducing task of finding a quality diamond, and I will definitely return to him when next I need fine jewelry. I hope you consider this website and its wonderful proprietors. C.M. New York, NY
Dear Jay,
When I started looking for a diamond ring I got very surprised by the huge difference of prices you can find from one jeweler to the other. Then I started searching online and found www.to-diamonds.com on Yahoo shopping. I could not believe that you had the ring I was looking for, at about half the price I had seen it ANY place else (I had been looking for more than a month). I remember calling you and asking you tons of questions!! You very kindly gave me all the information I needed about the quality of the diamond and the certificate of authenticity; I must admit that despite all this I was still anxious to see it for real. I got my package this morning and the ring is beyond all my expectations!! It is so beautiful and the diamonds are just wonderful. You really made my day!! I will definately come back to you to purchase more diamond jewelry, there is no doubt for me that Maggy's Top Diamond gives the best quality, and above all, the best prices and customer service. I will definitively recommend you to anyone who wants to buy diamond jewelry.
Thanks again for everything!
Best regards,

i just returned home after going to the independent appraiser recommended by my
friend. i cannot tell you how surprised and satisfied i was after leaving
there. i received my ring from you yesterday...#106 with a .70 princess
cut and matching trillions....i purchased the ring for just under $3000, you
gave me a "appraisal" for $5500.00 and this gemologist and certified
appraisal handed me an appriasal for 8100.00. i am truly amazed. her
comment was that the diamonds you hand chose for my ring were truly exceptional
and that you must be very good at what you do. i agree. i have
referred to you nate and laura (friends of mine looking for a tennis bracelet)
and also another friend who may be getting married. i will continue to
refer people to you as i am truly amazed by the quality i got for the price.
thank you jay

Finding a three stone platinum ring for a good price was impossible in my
local area, so I decided to look online - and I'm glad I did! "Maggy's
Top-Diamond" provided an outstanding 3 stone platinum ring for an even
better price. Hesitant at first buying over the internet and in
another
country - I decided to take the chance. After a speedy delivery, I
had the
ring appraised locally for approximately twice what I paid - even with the
exchange rate.
ONE HAPPY CANADIAN CUSTOMER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jay, I just wanted to add my own testimonial from a bride's point of view. My
fiance was having a very hard time finding a ring for me, he hates to shop
and he also knows that I have very distinct taste. He asked me to go out and
look around and see what I liked so he'd have a better idea of what I wanted.
(I know, sounds so romantic....) I went to 3 San Antonio retailers known for
their "great values" and got an idea of what stone I wanted, but found
their
prices high and quality & amount of inventory lacking. Our friends had
bought
online, so I decided to give it a try. Your site has the most beautiful
designs I'd seen and after looking into many online retailers, I was very
confident that your prices were a value. I found several gorgeous rings, but
had a favorite. I showed my fiance all three and he picked out my favorite.
It was as easy as that. We were very nervous and anxious to receive the ring,
but when it arrived, we couldn't believe how beautiful and brilliant it was.
Definitely exceeded our expectations. I had the ring appraise the day after I
got it and the jeweler said it was worth twice what we paid. I don't think we
could have found a more perfect ring for the price we paid or could have
found something this unique. People notice my ring frequently and
comment on
how beautiful and unique it is. I also find myself staring at my ring-it
flashes at me in the sunlight when I'm driving around town and have to remind
myself to watch the road!

Hi-- you mentioned that you would appreciate testimonials, so here it goes:
I didn't know much about buying a diamond ring, but after researching the
topic I figured out the cut, color, clarity, and carat weight I wanted, I
began looking around at web sites. I found some diamonds in my price
range
at Diamonds and Engagement Rings.com so I called them up. I talked with Jay about
what
I was looking for and he helped me find a diamond. He said he had a
beautiful diamond that was at a great price because it had a small flaw,
but that flaw would be easy to hide and that it really was a beautiful
stone. Well, I agreed to buy it but must have been unconvinced
because I
called him over and over again with questions about the ring and the
diamond. At the last minute, I decided to buy a more expensive
diamond
that was a little larger and had a better clarity rating. But Jay
talked
me out of it, saying that it really wasn't worth the extra money, and that
the diamond he had for me would be the best deal-- imagine, him turning
down a bigger sale! Any ways, I got the diamond and it really is
beautiful
and my fiance loves it and so does everyone else. Thanks so much for
your
help!
Sincerely,
Bob Correll
Thanks Jay!

Subject: Jay,
Subject: Testimonial for Maggy's Dear Jay The diamond I received from Jay's Website is the most stunning one ever.
My heart stood still and I'm still shaking as to how beautiful this lovely
1.02 CT, VVS2 F color diamond. I have been researching for a diamond for the
past six to eight months. I have visited countless web sites on as well as
visiting local jewelry stores. On Dec 22, 1999, I placed a diamond with XXXXXXXXX.com. Two months have
passed and my order never arrived. I contacted XXXXXXX.com to check on the
status of my order. According the XXXXXXXXX.com Representative, my order has been out of
stock. Furthermore, the sales representative told me that my order will
arrive to my door in a few weeks but there will be an increase in price. I
was upset and very angry. I found the customer support at XXXXXXXXX.com was
very poor. I canceled my order with XXXXXXXX.com shortly there after. In continuing on my search, I found to-diamond's web site. The first
thing I noticed was the wonderful and courteous customer support I received.
The representative at Jay's web site was helpful answering detail questions
I had about my purchase. My field is in accounting. I am very hesitance
about purchasing anything on the Internet let alone a diamond purchase. This
is my first successful experience purchase on the Internet and I feel you
have a customer for life. I will refer all my friends to your site. Jay, I will send you my weeding pictures in the future. Lisa N. Lieu Staff Accountant To: <mail@mail.todiamonds.com>

To anyone who may be apprehesive about purchasing a diamond engagement
ring
Dear Jay, My husband and I would like to thank you for the beautiful
diamond. It is absolutely gorgeous, and we are very happy with it. It
was a pleasure working with you. Thank you again, Mitch Decarro - Houston, TX Wayne Buton Newbury, CT Brad Limon Sarasota, FL Danielle LaFontaine Ridgewood, NJ Tony Delgrasso Grandview, MI Dec
First and foremost, I wish to thank you for
your outstanding advice
and superb service. The diamond engagement ring, matching wedding ring and
matching earrings are absolutely gorgeous (They could not have been a bigger
hit with my lady). Having read other testimonials concerning your diamond
Internet service, please feel free to add mine to the list and from this
point forward I'm writing to the perspective diamond ring purchaser - OK :-).
Dear Perspective Diamond Purchaser:
Like you, I went to many local diamond
retailers (I live in the
Austin, Texas area) and I came to the conclusion that the diamond engagement
ring I wanted was going to cost me well over $10,000. I then searched the
Internet. After getting past all the diamond "wholesalers," I
settled at
Diamonds and Engagement Rings.com because, stone for stone
(i.e., quality, clarity, size, cut, etc.)
Diamonds and Engagement Rings.com was priced better than any other diamond
dealer (Yes, I spent many hours and a few weeks on the Internet and I looked at almost every
web site that advertised diamond engagement rings). Having done my
"homework" I then called and spoke to Jay. After
listening to me
describe the engagement ring I wanted, Jay made it absolutely clear that it
was not necessary for me to spend as much as I was prepared to spend in order
to get the quality, brilliance and clarity I desired (Please read carefully
what I'm saying hear because this is the crux of my testimonial).
Effectively, Jay got me EXACTLY what I wanted for about $3000 below what I
was prepared to spend . . . and Jay knew, throughout our conversations, that
I was willing to spend it. The ring is gorgeous . . . and as testimony to
my
satisfaction, I have subsequently purchased a wedding band with matching
diamonds, matching earrings and my own plain gold wedding ring. The beauty
of buying the second, third and forth item from Jay is that there is no
longer a need for me to shop around . . . DIAMONDS AND ENGAGEMENT RINGS
HAS THE MOST BRILLIANCE FOR THE BUCK.
Ed Simmons, Austin Texas.

email at moonsimm@aol.com or call me at (512) ***-****(taken out by

I've never met Jay face-to-face .. . in fact, I've never set eyes on him . . .
and no, I'm not a family

Jay,
I just wanted to let you know that I am THOROUGHLY impressed with the
engagement ring that you made for me! Jay, you completely
exceeded my
expectations. The 3/4 ct ring was even more gorgeous than the
way you
described it over the phone.
When I compare the ring you created for me to those that I've looked at in
retail stores, there is just no comparison. In fact, to find a
comparable ring
in a retail outlet, I had to look at rings almost three times as much. And,
most importantly, my "fiance", a very picky girl, was thrilled.
Thank you so much for everything! I greatly appreciated your
patience and
helpfulness in helping me pick out my engagement ring. But,
more importantly,
I appreciated the stellar ring you delivered.
If you ever need a reference for one of your future customers, please
don't
hesitate to have them contact me. You can be assured that I
will definitely be
sending some of my guy friends your way.
Thankfully,
Matt

Dear Maggy's Top Diamond:
Thanks for the outstanding ring. We got the 3 stone traditional, and it is
stunning! My fiancee is constantly being complimented on the brilliance of
the
diamonds and the elegant beauty of the design. We couldn't be happier with
the
ring.
In addition to the exquisite quality of the diamond ring, Maggy's Top
Diamond
provided exceptional service and a very reasonable price. We have already
given our unqualified recommendation to two other couples who are looking

engagement rings.
Thank you for helping to make our engagement all that we could hope for it

Dear Jay,
The ring was a huge success!!! I was not sure about making a
purchase for
thousands of dollars when I had not seen the product. I received the
ring
with a one day lead time and it looked everything you said it would.
Platinum rings with diamonds are not readily available in retail stores,
but you had exactly what I was looking for in a ring. My wife loves
the
anniversary gift I gave her and that makes me a satisfied customer.
I feel quite certain that I will be ordering from you, again, by
phone or
Email. Your assessment of my needs and ability to fulfill that need
was
amazing.
Thank You.

from Maggy's I would like to say please don't waste another minute!
My fiance' presented me with my beautiful engagement ring today and I was
brought to tears. The picture on the Net didn't begin to do it justice. We
had shopped here in Tallahassee for over 2 months and no one came close to
showing us a diamond of this size or quality for up to double Maggy's
price.
Not only that, the setting is exactly what I had in mind and it shows off
my
gorgeous center stone to perfection.
The one thing that made all the difference in making the desision to
purchase from Diamonds and Engagement Rings.com was a great guy named Jay.
He is the best
and he really knocked himself out to make sure we got exactly what
we wanted. He even make a personal trip to pick up a wedding band for my fiance', he
didn't have on hand, in order to make sure our rings were mailed together.
We talked daily for a week and he really listened to our needs. He
is a
"gem" himself. Thanks Jay. We'll send you
wedding pictures!
