Diamonds Chicago

Diamonds Chicago Chicago, IL Review Date: 07/16/2010 I had a great experience at Diamonds Chicago. I did not have an appointment, but still got knowledgeable and patent help in selecting the diamond hoop earrings I was looking for. Carlee and Alice worked with me to help me select the best earrings for the price, and offered free financing as well! Not to mention, my fianc?e got my engagement ring diamond from DC, and my ring was re-sized three times at no charge. Very friendly and competent stuff. I?ll definitely go back for all my jewelry needs! Pros: service, prices, education Cons: always busy (is that a con?) more

Diamonds Chicago was the third stop in our comparison shopping for diamond stud earrings, after a lengthy Internet search. And it was by far the best. You can learn about diamonds on the Internet, but the sales person Carly will show you exactly what it is that makes every individual stone unique and determines its quality and price. She had an excellent selection to offer within our budget, and there was no pressure either to buy or exceed our spending range. We found the prices at Diamonds Chicago significantly better than on the comparable items we saw at the other stores. Two tips: Do plan to spend time to make this important purchase... and make an appointment. The place is busy, even in a recession! Pros: Excellent service, excellent prices Cons: none, really more

We loved our experience at Diamonds Chicago. We were walking around the city on Sweetest Day 2009 when we decided to make a stop at Jewelers Row. We just wanted to look, but wound up falling in love with a diamond and a ring. Fahmina was awesome to work with. We didnt have an appointment, but she was still willing to take all the time we needed to make us comfortable with diamond selection. There was pushiness or ""used car salesman"" attitudes amongst any of the staff; this was a big turnoff at other stores. We got an amazing deal on my diamond and we would highly recommend Diamonds Chicago to everyone! My mom is actually going to go and get an upgraded diamond for her engagement ring soon! Pros: Professional, Great Customer Service more

The staff at Diamonds Chicago were absolutely great. I had shopped around at several other store front locations on Wabash and they all felt so "" used car salesman"" like. I didn't get a good feeling. After working with Diamonds Chicago I felt that they were honest, knowledgeable and they were really trying to help me find the best quality diamond I could find. I ended up not only purchasing a loose stone but also a ring. It was an excellent experience and I will definitely go back for all my jewelry needs. Pros: Honest, friendly, welcoming & Knowledgeable Cons: None unless super Busy more

Diamonds Chicago was easily the best diamond shopping experience that I had when looking for an engagement ring. Every other place mad me feel like I was used car shopping. Carly and her staff took the time to educate me and find the diamond that I was looking for... NOT the diamond they were trying to sell. She patiently sat down and showed me diamond after diamond. I was not an easy customer!! I probably will never shop for diamonds anywhere else. LOTS OF DIAMOND FOR YOUR BUCK.\r \r JEFF B. Pros: Value, Customer Service, Selection more

My fiancee and I went to a few places, including Diamonds Chicago, when shopping for her engagement ring. We had done a lot of research, but we still learned a great deal from Carlee. Her honesty with us is the main reason we ended up buying from her, although the price and the quality of the ring we got were better than we expected as well. We spent a lot more time in the store than we expected, but the education we received was worth it. I definitely recommend stopping at Diamonds Chicago before going other places just for the education you'll receive. Pros: Honest more

I purchased my fiance's engagement ring from DC back in October and was extremely pleased with my experience. I was in search of a yellow diamond and a very specific band. Up to that point I had been to a few places that had a very minimal selection of colored stones and were very pushy about the ones they did have. I was referred to DC by a friend and made an appointment with Carlee. Right off the bat I could tell that this place was different because Carlee took the time to give me a tutorial about how to rate a diamond and what to look for with specific stones. Since colored diamonds are graded differently than white diamonds, her knowledge was very helpful. I told her the cut, the price range and intensity of yellow i wanted and she came back with about 8 choices that were all in my price range! That was huge because the other places i went to had limited selections that were all well above my price range and the salespeople tried to pressure me into exceeding my budget. Once i narrowed down my choices, Carlee instructed me on how to view the stone and use the magnifying lens to test the clarity and find any imperfections. I finally decided on a beautiful, cushion-cut, canary yellow diamond. They didn't have the type of band i wanted in shop, but Carlee had a guy she works with in the building, who can design a band exactly to your liking. She emailed me a virtual computer program that allowed me to design my ring and it was made within a week. It turned out exactly how i wanted it and my fiance thinks it is perfect. Her friends and family love it and she has even been complimented by numerous strangers on how beautiful it is. Another huge bonus about DC - they offer 0% interest financing through Wells Fargo!! All in all, since DC is a wholesaler, they have a more laid back nature and are much more fun to work with. You can tell they focus on helping the customer get exactly what they want instead of trying to oversell people like other diamond stores. They have a huge selection and I plan on buying my fiance's wedding band their too.\r \r A+ to Carlee and Diamonds Chicago. Pros: No pressure, lots of options, knowledgable staff more

I recently purchased an engagement ring from Diamonds Chicago. Carlee spent six hours over two days helping me pick out the perfect diamond ring. Before showing me any diamonds, she explained the process of evaluating diamonds. There was no pressure to buy the ring there but I am happy that I did. Thanks Carlee! Pros: No pressure to buy more

In a search for an engagement ring for my fiancé I went to numerous jewelry stores, until I visited Diamonds Chicago. The first thing that occurred on my preliminary visit to Diamonds Chicago is that the person assisting me (Fahmina—ask for her she is great) educated me on how to evaluate diamonds. She gave me about 15-20 minutes worth of tips before she started to show me diamonds. I learned more from her in 15 minutes than from all of my visits to other jewelry stores. I saw a large selection of diamonds and found one that was perfect for me. I worked with Diamonds Chicago in designing a setting that would be to my fiancés liking and it was a very smooth process. My fiancé was so impressed with the final product that she insists that we purchase our wedding bands from Diamonds Chicago as well. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Pros: great location, fantastic service, excellent expertise Cons: NA more
