No problem - they can do that quickly.

That is great! My ring is really nothing fancy to look at, plain gold with diamonds that I think are around 10 points each.

Would either of you be able to hazard a guess as to how much 11 diamonds of about 10 points each might cost to purchase and have set?

I love the story of your friends stones Guenmai - you obviously must have a talent for jewelry design yourself!

You know, see that the jewelers website has a "contact me" section - I think I might email them to ask a general guesstimate price. I wouldn't want to spend a ton of money on this. I have been living with the ring this way for years- we just had our 25th anniversary :)

The only way you'll get a good price is to go there in person, ask for Lily (and whether she's there or not) tell them "Kathie from Seattle" sent you. If you don't like the price, don't have them do it.

Contacting them via email will get to a retail price, much higher than you'd pay otherwise.

Thank you for telling me Kathie! I will do it that way.

Enjoy your trip!

Yes, just wait until you get there. Call SJ and specifically ask for Lily, then introduce yourself and that you know Kathie, tell her what you need, and have HER send a car for you. Then she'll be there when you arrive. When you enter, just tell the greeter that you are there to see Lily. Happy Travels!
