I ordered the thin pink CZ eternity from Berricle today, as well as several other things...some cushion studs, marquise ring set, aTiffany Etoile-esque wedding set, and a three stone ring. I'll report on how I like it all.

I can just go ahead and call out the other site that I had a bad eternity band experience: it was Fantasy Jewelry Box. In a blatant act of dishonesty, they didn't post my reasonable (but not sunshine and rainbows) review of that ring. When I contacted customer service several weeks later to find out why the review was overlooked, I got no response. The CZs in the band were so lifeless and dull, and promptly began to fall out after a few light wearings. In case anyone was wondering, I'm referring to "the Diva" band from FJB.

I would love to see photos of your sparklies. Bronwyn, I think a pretty once every two weeks is perfectly reasonable if you have the funds. That's the great thing about being single...I don't have to explain my purchases to anyone but myself. lol Now, to narrow down places to buy and what I want.

At first glance I thought that was a ring! Got me reminiscing...I have always been a princess and RB kinda girl but a few years ago I saw an asscher eternity band in real diamonds. It was one of the most beautiful rings I have ever seen. No way could I ever afford what I saw! I have looked for a moissanite one ever since and can't find one anywhere. I kinda gave up. Once I saw the new Asscher Amora Gem pics I got all giddy again thinking maybe I could have one made with all Amoras-how awesome!
In the meantime, does anyone have an asscher eternity band or know of pics on here? i would love to get some thoughts. Are they just as stunning as I rememeber them?

I would be all over an asscher eternity band! I saw one in diamonds that cost over 30,000 US, but as far as sims go I've not come across one. I do have an emerald cut CZ chunky eternity band and I've seen princess CZ ebands, but not asscher..

*runs off the look at Amora gem asscher pics*

Edit: I just looked them up and I gasped! I've been avoiding Amora gem hoopla because I'm really impatient so I'm trying to just forget about it until I can actually buy one, but wow. I can't wait to get my hands on the asscher or OEC...

Now imagine a whole Amora asscher eternity band-GASP AGAIN! I am wondering why they aren't available. Seems to be enough people in love with asscher. They are just such a classy upscale look. That e-band could very well be the end-all-be-all for me.
I am not even slightly patient either...started an Asscher Piggy bank and told my family "mommy is trying to save for something real sparkly, any donations daddy wants to give would make her happy!"...but I am realistically wondering how long the $$$ could last in there before I get itching for something, anything.
Do you remember the carat weight for the band you saw? $30,000! Good God that is crazy!

I don't remember the carat weight, but each stone was pretty substantial. I might even say at least a carat a piece. Frankly, I just gawked because it was something I'd never be able to afford.

Since hubby and I have a store at our local mall, I know all the Kay's employees and they will take the good stuff from the back and show it to me everytime I walk in there. Last week I tried on an 18,000 tanzanite and diamond ring...*swoon*.

***Fainting**** Tanzanite is my favorite of the real deals!

I made an order with Fantasy Jewelry Box a few months ago. The pendant and pink eternity ring I got were GORGEOUS...I seriously wear them all the time. The eternity band I got...no so much. It's uneven in width and my stones look weird. The prongs are funky, too. I think they're stuff is pretty hit or miss...because I was beyond thrilled with the other items!

I have ordered lots of stuff from FJB, some of which I really liked, some not so much. I stopped buying from them a couple of months ago when I bought a ring with what they claimed was a "heart shaped CZ center stone" and it was actually a princess and two half moons which formed a heart shape. I mean, the item was blatantly misrepresented in their item description and you couldn't tell from the picture that it wasn't a single center stone. I already have a composite ring of real diamonds JUST LIKE THAT! lol...I bought it so I could have my "fantasy" ring with a big heart shaped CZ, and it was a CZ version of my economical diamond ring. Not cool. I kept it because it was pretty enough, but when they didn't post my review...didn't respond to my emails to customer service...AND didn't even bother to correct the item description, I had to stop shopping with them - even though I like their prices, fast shipping, and product selection.

And I wanted to post these, but didn't think they warranted a whole thread, so I thought I'd just post a couple pics here. I got some really cool rings randomly at Wal Mart today on a grocery run with DH. They've had the same costume rings FOREVER at my Wal Mart but they got a bunch of new ones in, and I had to pick a few up! They were only $9 a piece and even though they're plated mystery metal, they stay pretty for a long time if I restrict them to light wear. I have a couple cheapo rings from WalMart that are a year or so old now and still look like when I bought them (because I don't wear them too often).

My favorite is the huge pink CZ halo ring, it's so pretty and sparkly in real life!
