      • when you make the ring, do you always "all hold hands?"

    • I wanted to have a ring made and found a woman who came highly recommended from a co-worker. She wanted a deposit and I sent it to her to hold the diamond. She was rushing me from the start and I felt like her first wax mold of the ring was not very close to the picture of the ring I wanted. So I sent her a few emails describing the ring and how the wax mold she sent was different. She got really creepy and basically said I would never be happy and that it had already taken more than 30 days (which, I guess, is some important timeline with her.. she never told me about this). So after being that creepy, I told her I felt like I should work with someone else and please send my deposit back. Now she doesn't return my calls or emails and no money back. I know she spent time on this -but she should have told me upfront this was non-refundable if that's the case. Otherwise, I feel like she backed out of this and should pay me back. What is the correct answer to this situation.

      • I highly recommend http://www.andreacorson.com/ - i grew up with her and she recently (a few years ago) made a piece that i commissioned. she was great to work with - open, flexible, we went back and forth on design ideas - and reasonable price. she does great work, check out her website!

    • Thanks for the recommendation. But my question is should she send my deposit back or is that what she'll consider payment for the time she spent. Even though she didn't do the ring for me?

      • i don't think you'll see the deposit at this point. you owe her something for her time, for creating the mold, etc. and she has your money and no incentive to return it. next time ask questions first!
