People may not know how hard you have to work to be in 6 year med. Kudos. Don't let anyone tell you different. I am impressed and I don't impress easily. As far as the Tiffany, sure it's overpriced and so not worth it.....to us, but women dig that stuff especially because other women covet it.

My wife has a collection of the small necklaces and for her first mother's day i went to the rodeo drive flagship store and dropped a 1000 (i had no money at the time) on a 'tiffany diamond' it's a little speck, but she LOVES IT still despite some huge ass non tiffany diamonds I bought her later.
my girl is happier than ever even if i just bring her a pack of her fav gum when i see her or just when i make the drive to go see her ..she could care less abt Tiffany's but if i have money i like to get her something to make her stand out especially since she doesn't have much fancy jewelry

You can get some REALLY nice stuff at Tiffany's for under $200. Unique stuff that you will get NOWHERE else.

Do you guys roll w/ fake Volks? I don't.

it's just a fact that you can get many of their exclusive designs for under $200...

the more expensive stuff is often the same design in a different metal like platinum or gold or might have a diamond or 2 in it.

ever bought any clothing/jewelry? everyone selling the tiffany ring i want to get us has like 2 or 3 ratings at the most
That's something to be wary of. I've only ordered from sellers that have a lot of positive feedback and have been in business for at least a year.

But I think Amazon has some kind of guarantee that you will get what you are promised - just make sure that Tiffany is what is advertised and you can file a complaint with Amazon if you don't get a Tiffany. You get something like 30 days after receipt to file the complaint.

Nightcrawler:
You sound like a hard working and very fortunate guy. Most people would not be in your situation even with your hard work.

You are right, while a bit pricey, the Tiffany stuff is very nice stuff. If it is online at a siginficant discount it is either not really Tiffany or it is stolen.

Just go ahead and continue to buy reasonably priced Tiffany stuff for your girl. She's worth it.

which brings us back to topic...the stuff on amazon looks really legit but i'm really unsure. the only reason i'm looking at places other than a tiffany store is because i'm getting us the matching signature ring and dog tag so it's whatever they cost x2.
