Okay - if you’re reading this, then you’ve probably already seen the website and read some reviews and you want to know what the deal with Canadian Diamonds Wholesale is.
Let me start by saying that I started my diamond purchase journey online and went through all of the popular sites to get approximate prices for stones, quality, clarity, etc, that would fall in my price range. My partner and I had also visited many stores and many custom jewellers that you’ve probably thought about visiting (or have already) as well. We had also visited some of the stores that carry brand name rings and settings to get an idea of what would be an ideal ring.
When it comes to diamond price, you can’t beat their prices. Even comparing to the online shops, they were slightly cheaper, and they take on the risk of importing the diamond for you. I even matched GIA numbers with their quotes to the ones shown online and yes, they are cheaper. Not only that, Ron gave us excellent advice on what to look for in our stone and gave us quotes to look at.
Jeff then took over and was extremely helpful. I found a stone I liked online, and he procured it, matched prices, and even checked with the diamond cutter on the quality of the stone. Again, you don’t need to worry about transportation or anything, they do all the logistics for you.
Next, we worked with Jeff on designing the setting, after visiting a lot of shops, my partner knew exactly what she wanted. Jeff created the setting perfectly and the end results were stunning. And the best part? It came in under my budget!
The final handoff, we were given a fine ring box so that I could propose when the time came. Everything was pleasant and amazing. Communication was great, the timelines were quick, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.
Don’t let the website fool you, because it doesn’t tell the whole story of the journey I had to create the perfect engagement ring for my partner.
If you’re in the market for an engagement ring, I highly recommend calling their number and making an appointment. I’ve probably learned more than I’ve ever needed to about diamonds, settings, and the process of making a ring, but...
Read moreI purchased my fiance's engagement ring through Jeff. They really did do a fantastic job. I had found a diamond on the website that I really liked and had even told Jeff that I was gonna phone in the payment one afternoon. I was encouraged by someone close to me to see one more guy in town before I made the purchase. I let Jeff know i was going to hold off for a day until i went to see this other gentleman. Jeff had no problem with that, he gave me a couple pointers to watch out for while dealing with this other fellow. Sure enough this other fellow started downplaying the certifications and tried selling me a smaller diamond with worse clarity and colour than the one i was interested in through Jeff. After that experience I knew i was going to get the diamond through candian diamonds wholesale. At first i was only going to get the diamond through them but i found out that local shops would not guarantee the diamond if they were to set it for me. So i decided to get the ring through them as well. My fiance and i were able to design the ring the exact way we wanted. When I got it in the mail i was terrified to open it, fearing it would not be what i wanted. When i finally did open it i was ecstatic, it was perfect! Just to make sure i took the ring to a jeweler here in town to get it appraised. The ring was appraised at almost double what i had paid for it. In fact the Jeweler said he could not make the ring for what I had paid for it, as well as noted the excellent craftsmanship. I'm sure you can imagine that after finding that out I was very happy. I can't say enough about my experience dealing with canadian diamonds wholesale and Jeff. I know the anxiety people would feel about making such an important and expensive purchase online, all I can say is Jeff made me feel very comfortable throughout the whole process. I absolutely recommend this company to everyone, they are the only people i will go to...
Read moreFor my 30th Anniversary I wanted to get a new diamond for my wedding ring as well as add another gold band to the ring to match the two existing bands. We had excellent communication with Jeff who emailed and talked to us numerous times on the phone; he answered all our questions and helped us pick out the perfect diamond. We went into their downtown Vancouver office a few times to drop off my ring and discuss the details of the work to be done. After picking out the diamond on their website (with Jeff's recommendations) and putting down the deposit, we waited a few weeks for the diamond to arrive at their office. We told them we wanted to come down to the office to 'see' the diamond and make sure it was the one we ordered. When we were there, they showed us the GIA number of the beautiful diamond under the microscope, confirming that it was indeed the diamond we picked out. Once the diamond was received in their office the work on my ring was completed very quickly. We met Ron Davidson when we picked up the ring and without us asking, he put the ring under the microscope to show us the GIA number again, which was still visible after the diamond had been mounted. This extra step confirmed to me that I was dealing with a very honest and reputable company. I would not hesitate to recommend Davidson Designs to anyone looking for quality workmanship and beautiful diamonds at a...
