Diamond Engagement Ring "Size" Does Matter!
Eighteen percent of consumers have problems finding the correct fit for jewelry, according to a new study by the Jewelry Consumer Opinion Council (JCOC).
Sizing problems included jewelry being either too big or too small and not being able to find jewelry that's big enough or small enough, according to the Jewelry Size Report, issued this week by the JCOC.
Rings posed sizing difficulties for 24 percent of those surveyed, and bracelets posed sizing problems for 19 percent of those surveyed. Despite the sizing problems posed by rings, about two-thirds of those surveyed found adjustable and sizeable rings undesirable. By contrast, more than half of consumers found adjustable and sizeable bracelets and necklaces desirable.
About a quarter of those surveyed reported that they wear a ring size of seven to seven and a half, but 12 percent do not know what ring size they wear.
Of those surveyed, 18 percent prefer a size-seven bracelet, but 27 percent do not know what bracelet size they prefer.
Correct ring sizing is also a big problem as many guys don't have a clue as to their gal's correct ring size. This is a problem when ordering a diamond engagement ring on-line as it means that after presentation, they have to send the ring back to the vendor for correct re-sizing. This entails their paying for round-trip shipping-insurance costs.
We recently had a case of a guy who ordered a Platinum Custom size 8-1/2 diamond engagement ring from us only to sheepishly call us a few days after receipt that the ring was "slightly big" on her finger, he now has the correct ring size after taking her to the neighborhood jeweler for sizing, and could we re-size it. No problem, we replied, our Lifetime Guarantee covers re-sizing free of charge. What do you need, we asked?
Size 5-1/2, he answered!
Whoa Nellie! No can do, my friend. We explained that re-sizing can be done up or down to 3/4 of a size. More than that and it's best to make a completely new ring. Got to make you a new ring, which he paid for.
Guys, get her correct ring size BEFORE you place your order. Beg, borrow, steal a ring she wears on a regular basis and take it to your neighborhood jeweler for correct ring sizing.
Most good diamond Internet websites have comprehensive ring charts, including International ring size conversion tables that allow you to correctly determine her ring size.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

This is undoubtedly a weblog that people need to get behind. The dilemma is, nobody wants to do a fantastic deal of reading and not have some thing else to stimulate the mind. This will be the net, soon after all. Perhaps should you added a video or two to emphasise your point. Ill stick around, FOR Certain. But, I dont know if others will.

Yes, thats precisely what I wanted to hear! Excellent stuff here. The data and the detail were just perfect. I think that your perspective is deep, its just properly thought out and actually amazing to see someone who knows the best way to put these thoughts down so properly. Excellent job on this.

Can I just say what a relief to uncover an individual who truly knows what theyre talking about on the net. You definitely know the way to bring an problem to light and make it important. More folks have to read this and comprehend this side of the story. I cant believe youre not a lot more common due to the fact you certainly have the gift.

I have to say, I dont know if its the clashing colours or the bad grammar, but this weblog is hideous! I mean, I dont desire to sound like a know-it-all or anything, but could you have possibly put a little bit much more effort into this subject. Its truly interesting, but you dont represent it nicely at all, man.

Can I make a suggestion? I think youve got some thing good here. But what if you added a couple links to a page that backs up what youre saying? Or possibly you could give us some thing to take a look at, some thing that would connect what youre saying to something tangible? Just a suggestion.

For what its worth, the layout is certainly remarkable. You know the way to balance writing and images/videos. Even so, I cant get over how small you in fact bring to light here. I think that everyones said the same thing that youve said over and over again. Dont you feel its time for something far more?
