I have had a very disappointing experience with my ring purchase from PrimeStyle that I would like to share with consumers.
I had ordered a ring and was told that it would be 3-4 days to have it delivered to me. The payment for the ring was taken out of my account that same day that I placed my order, February 4. The ring did not arrive until 8 days later. When the ring did arrive it was extremely flawed with low quality yellow stones, grade K-M and gold which has fractures in many areas creating a number of points where breakage was inevitable. This I was able to see under a simple jewelers loop.
I returned the ring the same day overnight ($ 75) cost incurred by me, shipping with insurance, which PrimeStyle required. I also called and informed them of the reason for the return.
The ring was received back in New York on February 13 and I did not hear from the company until February 20, to verify return and discuss replacement. I ordered a new ring that day, requesting better quality stones H-I and to have one of the sales managers, David, examine the ring prior to shipping.
This entire process took an additional 7 days and additional $ 275 to complete.
The ring was shipped back to me 2 day air (4 days over the weekend) and arrived Monday March 3 in the afternoon, for a total order time of 28 days or 24 days more than what was initially promised and $ 275 in additional incurred costs. Upon receipt of the ring, there is a crack in one of the prongs holding the center stone and two of the side stones have chips, there are two stones that are yellow in color, the additional 12 are white, I paid additional money to have matched H-I color. I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED.
Remember "You get what you pay for". "Buyer Beware"!

David Y. – PrimeStyle Rep

Firstly, Primestyle would like apologize for any inconvenience you have endured throughout your purchasing process.

We are a manufacturer; therefore each item is made to order. The making and completion of the item needs to pass multiple inspection points.

Also, we advice our customers that each item takes 3 – 4 business days to be completed and shipped, this time may be extended if it falls during a weekend. Hence, any or all of these points could have been contributing factors for your 8 day delivery.

We are located in New York City and during that week we had severe weather issues the entire nations logistics was affected, aside from it also been our busiest week of the year.

Why did you choose overnight delivery? We know this may be costly to our customers and this also the reason why it is not part of our return policy.
You failed to mention which stone you originally purchased since we also offer K quality stones through our website.

At Primestyle, our customer’s satisfaction is something we take pride in. If you could kindly provide us with your order number to better help you with this issue. We have many return customers and our return rate is a minimum, however mistakes do happen and it’s unfortunate. Once more, we would like to apologize for this inconvenience.
