Fraudulent Charges
Complaint

I ordered the Diamond Z4 ring for $20 and $6.99 s&h. It has been about a month and I still have not received the ring. Over the last two weeks, I have received two calls from their sales people to send me free earrings and a necklace for a 14 day free trial. If I chose to keep the necklace, I would be charged $53.96. I was not interested and told them so before they could even finish their speech. I was charged TWICE for $53.96 on the same day! I called my credit card company and told them the charges were fraudulent and they removed the charges. It's amazing to me that they think they can get away with ripping people off. This company is BOGUS!!!

What they don't tell you is that you are getting scammed out of your $20 plus whatever else they can get you for.
Diamonds are not rare, and if DeBeers ever loses control, you can buy the 2 carat "investment" stone for very little - say $60 to $100. Today that stone sells for over $80,000.
And the CZs are getting better and better, and if it weren't for their being flawless, jewelers would have a hard time telling them from real. They are approaching the hardness of diamonds.
There are stores which sell very high quality CZs with real gold and white gold settings. There was one in the Dallas area - Diamontrigue, I think was the name. Great stuff in great settings but slightly more than $20. I can't believe anyone believed they were buying a real diamond, even a chip for $20.
Ppl who write negative reviews don't have a motive for doing so, so if there are a ton of them, then it really is best to just walk away. There is only one reason why a message board like this would have so many bad reviews telling similar stories...they're true. Please, don't waste your money and possibly your credit or bank account this scam! And if you absolutely MUST have it and want to gamble about $30 on it (since the commercial says the ring itself is $20 and the shipping is $10), please do yourself a favor and put only the exact amount on a prepaid credit card so that they can't charge you any more than that or charge you for other things you didn't authorize. You may lose that $30 if you choose to gamble it that way, and I don't suggest it, but if you want to gamble with it, please be smart about it and do it that way.
