Whiteflash vs. James Allen vs. Blue Nile

I looked at Blue Nile and James Allen. Frankly, on quality and price neither Blue Nile or James Allen Reviews live up to what you guys did for me! The ring has blown everybody away who has seen it so far. I was lucky enough to be able to propose on a Bahamian island on the holiday of a lifetime thanks to a college friend. The 'fire' in the diamond really sets the ring apart - it catches the light so brilliantly. We were holidaying with other Americans (Houstonians no less!) - what I would say, without being intentionally offensive, is that others have opted for 'quantity over quality' - I noticed many 2ct rings that did not have the lustre, or had to be helped out via a halo etc to try and stand out - as if they were trying too hard. Back in the UK, where diamonds tend to be significantly more expensive/smaller, the ring stands out even more. Lisa has had 3/4 comments on her ""rock"" in her office - naturally she is happy and proud! I wanted to take time out to thank you all personally in managing the engagement minefield. The quality of service, information, packaging etc has blown me away. Not having a giant logo on the ring etc was a key point - the 'W' is subtle and elegant. And the best of all was , she said YES!!! I can't imagine how Blue Nile nor James Allen could compete, I really can't with plain certificates and a generic approach. You made the experience SO personal and we are 1,000's of miles away!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience in purchasing a ring from Whiteflash. Becca is amazing and was really easy to work with. She was patient with all the questions that I had for the ring. From head height, setting, cut of the diamond, and natural vs lab grown. I love the ring and how it all came out. The details are great and the princess cut diamond in a 3 stone setting look really good. I have put it up to the light and the sparkle that it gets is amazing. It has a lot of fire to it when it comes to catching light and it has great aesthetic. I would definitely say that if you are looking for a quality piece of jewelry then Becca at Whiteflash is the person to talk to. They have a large collection and are able to get you custom pieces as needed.
