Hello to all did you experience buy online? My husband last year purchase me an engagement ring and it is 3 stone princess cut diamond, It was too expinsive because of the diamond and it was 18k italian gold.
I am so currious and i try to gon to pawnshop to see howa the gold and the diamond, but i find out the diamond was a lot of crack and the gold its not purely 18k and the pawnshop staff said it is not standard 18k gold. And they accept very low price, im so shock for that, for now i never trust again about online selling!!!
What about your thought? Have a blesses day to all...

When you deal with the sites buying and selling through the Internet, you must be careful, especially when you buy, you should test the seller that you buy from, by buying things of small value first, and also must know the evaluation of buyers to the seller before your buying.
Buying and selling is confidence among all the dealers, to the extent that confidence whether or not to be dealing.

Well, online shopping is pretty convenient for me. I have bought so many cool stuff from the internet. The only drawback is you have to know the store's credibility. I only buy at credible stores. I make a check if these stores have a good background with their previous customers. If they do then i will make the purchase :) Maybe you should do that next time or play it safe by buying in malls only. But buying in malls can be a bit more expensive.

Sorry to hear about this ring. I would never buy rings online, as people don't always tell the truth about the quality of their products. I know several people that have been scammed.

Well buying expensive items like this would need to be bought offline. I think pictures and description on the site is not enough proof that it is what is written in site. So I think lesson learned here try to see it in real time rather that just look at the picture and description of the item you are buying. It is hard to trust your money online with that big amount.

There are many scammers on the internet. What you actually get can be so much different than what you think you have ordered. Buying something as important as a wedding ring should be made offline at a reputable gold or jewellery outlet. You would be able to experience first hand the ring before making the purchase. I did purchase a pair of couple shirts online and later I found out how low quality the cloth they use to make the shirt. The color goes off everytime I wash it. Conclusion, offline purchase is safest and smartest way of purchase.

That's so sad, but unfortunately, it's very difficult to believe in online shops. I rarely buy something too expensive online, only clothes, make up...It's bad that you only went to see how much the ring worth it too much time after the buy otherwise you could complain in some place or something like that, don't know how these things work in your country.

Well i believe what you say, but in my case my husband who choose the design of the ring but i am the one who pay for it since he bought it inside Philippine and i paid for the dealer... It really good looking but the problem is very expinsive and the diamond is not good, there is 3 diamond on that ring but each diamond has a deffect thats why i am so very disappointed for that.Thank you for the comments....
