Buying jewellery on Biz com       
HERE IS MY PURCHASE:

I finally received my $1,200 piece of jewellery from Bidz.com  which I paid $50.00 + postage of $19.00.  So a princely amount of $69.00.   Ummmmm. 

 

I am not sure I am entirely happy with my piece.  Look, it is OK but not something that is a thousand dollars worth!  So $50 is probably what it is worth. 

 

It is made of Onyx and diamonds in 10K white gold.  10K gold looks a bit like pure tin to me!  Maybe I am just being picky but I think silver would look better than this.  The diamonds, it is true they said they were around ‘J’ quality.  Since diamonds range from 'a' to 'z', ‘j’ diamonds seem very lack lustre.  Onyx are just little black stones. 

 

Maybe I chose the wrong item.  Maybe everyone knows 10K white gold looks a lot like tin.  Maybe everyone steers clear of ‘j’ diamonds because they are dull and lifeless and this is exactly why this item was on the auction clear house!!! 

Hey, stupid me for not working that out!!! 

 

All is not completely lost though I like it enough to wear it and I’ve had my ‘fix’ at the auction website.  In a way I am glad I am not besotted with it because I would end up with mountains of unnecessary jewellery!

Here it is:

It looks OK but I see what you mean about the diamonds..maybe you have to pay a lot more money to get a better trinket - I'll have a look at the site myself and see what is doing from Wise Woman Megan

I was waiting to see this - I can see what you mean about the lack of lustre but it said is was worth 1000 dollars so pretend it did. Love the articles keep them coming
