I decided to purchase a promise ring for my girlfriend, and went with Oravo's SR9810 - Amethyst Heart Cut in Sterling Silver with 8 CZ stones.

After finding the ring on their site, and proceeding to Checkout, I kept a close eye on the total amount I was being billed, especially when the Shipping was added (free 5-9 days).
It wasn't until I reached the "You've just been billed" page that I saw the total DOUBLE!
It went from $29.99 to $58.99 and sent me into "Stop Order" mode.

After a couple of emails and a contact on the site a refund was issued. Then I sent an email confirming I can now order just the ONE ring without hassle, and I get this response:

"You can order another one if you really want to."

If I really want to? Do they think they screwed up that bad, as to give me a break to shop elsewhere? What happened to, "Let me assure you we want you to order another, and return for all your jewelry needs."?

Bottom line:
They fixed the mistake, blamed me by telling me to check my cart before payment (haha), and then they don't show the slightest concern for maintaining a relationship.
I don't think I could recommend this site until I receive my order as promised. Get it?

UPDATE:
I decided to investigate this company after putting two and two together. It all started with a trip to Walmart.com for the ring. I found it, ordered it from Walmart affiliate, Wayfair and they shipped from Diamond Bar, Ca. I ordered the wrong size ring, so I returned it for a refund. Then, after finding they did not have any more in stock, I went to the source- Oravo.com.
Oravo supplies Walmart (and Wayfair) with jewelry.
Now, after looking up this business, I find it is run from a private residence in Diamond Bar, they make $58,000/year in revenue, and the sole owner and employee is Rohan Vora!
Does this sound like a nightmare to anyone else?

Wow, Walmart... You are not the leader you make yourself out to be!

It seems Match.com has so many affiliates they want you to purchase from, they are willing to abuse your trust (and inbox) at any cost. For example:
I signed on for a 'Free' ride to see what the fuss was about. Instantly I was receiving 15 to 20 spam mails a day! When I reported this to Match.com, they said, "We'll fix that right away, Sir." In all actuality, they did nothing. Still, to this day I receive spam from Match.com affiliates yet I'm no member.
NO STARS!
I do not support any company that turns it's hounds loose on every new customer that walks through the door, hoping to tear every last shred of paper money from their pockets before discarding them in a heap. I do not support a company whose customer service representatives are told to lie to the customers when they need assistance. And, I do not support greedy companies who say one thing and do the opposite. They need to be shown the door, and told to go!

Tip for consumers:
PUT THE MOUSE DOWN AND BACK AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER

I went to their site to order a replacement antenna for my car. I placed the order and got this message: "I am sorry, your bank has rejected the payment. Please contact your bank to determine why or use another credit card or form of payment." I called my bank and the agent said they authorized payment FOUR TIMES to these clowns!

When I asked for help, none was given. When I called back to speak to a supervisor, they hung up on me! When I called a third time, I got a supervisor who didn't know his butt from a tea-kettle! No good can come from patronizing this company. Look for your products from ebay or Crutchfield instead.

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT USE THIS SITE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
