I'd say look at the sizing that they give carefully. Items appear to be much bigger than they actually are and depending on the item the colours may be slightly different. Ordered a necklace with a sapphire stone. The site showed the stone to look like a regular sapphire but when it arrived, it was a milky opaque blue colour.

really? different colour. Did you complain?

did it specifically say in the listing it would be pink? or you assumed it would be pink (considering sapphire is usually pink and the picture showed it was pink)?
thanks

Like i ordered this item

It wasnt translucent at all, the whole thing was more like the opaque colour of the upper wings.
Like i mentioned it looks bigger than it actually is, so always look at the dimensions first. This one is 3/4" long from top to bottom, so take out a ruler and try to picture the size of what you're getting.

I ended up returning the item. I used a promotion to get free shipping to get the order, but after I returned the item, they did not refund the full amount. They returned my total - $5.

Do they charge you anything extra across the borders, since they're in the States?
I haven't bought anything from US so I'm not sure how the system works.

I ordered a watch from ice.com, just coz i found a coupon on RFD.

They shipped out very quickly, got the watch in less than a week.

Also, the watch looked even better than on the website.

Looking at the other comments though, i would consider myself plain lucky,

Cheers!

paid 2 days ago. got it today. fast shipping, but its from montreal to mississauga.
but anyways, the colour is kind of different from the picture. the picture was purpleish rose red, and it came red (slightly dark.. what do you call that? not good with my colours).. ahh. i wanted the purpleish tone...oh well.

i guessi can't complain?
but hey it says "rose-purple hue of the rhodolite garnet" on thier webpage though!

what do you people think??

I ordered from ICE.com. The package was dripping a little when it got to me. When I opened it up, it was just a bag full of water! Well, I was ticked so I called their support line. At first I thought their support people were shifty. They blamed it on Canada Post and that fact that my package took 3 weeks to get to me. They said it was frozen when they shipped it. (Don't know how true that was.) But their first idea on fixing the problem worked! They suggested I put my package in my freezer and wait a few hours. That did the trick!

If it wasn't for them, none of my guests would have had a cold drink that night.

In the future I'll use their Express Shipping option.

They seem to have decent prices compared to the mall!
esp for 14k.

-not exactly my taste, but I have "unusual" taste in jewelery (and buy on Ebay).
But I think 85% of women would be happy to have this.
