Did anyone ever purchase jewelry specifically an eternity band from Saks that was from their own collection?
They're having a sale on Saks off fifth and have been eyeing one of theirs
I was wondering if it's worth it.
Anyone can chime in?

I’d love to see. Is their lab grown good quality and will last then I don’t mind. What are their real diamond prices?

Department stores have the highest markups on jewelry. More than any one else!!
For eternity bands, I recommend going to a Diamond dealer, straight to the source. Or a lab grown Diamond dealer.
Barring that, at least go to a jewelry store ( in general the frum ones will have better prices than not frum ones. And way better prices than jewelry store chains)
But don’t buy diamonds from a department store! You’re throwing money into the trash. The only time it may be worth it is if the jewelry is brand name like van cleef or cartier, but even those brands, I have bought from our jewelry dealer

I have heard good things about Costco though

And I wonder if the Black Friday sales will make dept stores more competitively priced

When you’re talking about diamonds, then an eternity band can be $1000-200,000
Diamonds are priced according to their carat size, cut, clarity, and color

So I got a giftcard from the store, that's why I want to purchase through them...
And because of black Friday, I think their prices are going to be more reasonable.

So if we keep the cost aside, do they last well and is the quality good?

This.
And also based on whether lab or mined diamonds..
If not for the gift card, I don't think I would be able to afford one that zi would like since it would be out of my budget
