We're starting to look at wedding rings, and I'm all over the board. Does anybody have any experience with either the Jewelry Exchange in Tampa, or International Diamond Source in Clearwater? There's an indie jeweler by our house too, Lithos in St. Pete, that I want to check out because they do great custom work. I hate dealing with sales people, so we want to go to as few places as possible - just enough to comparison shop and see selection a bit.
I want something antiquey (but new because my engagement ring is a family ring) that will work well with a wide yellow band of my engagement ring. Ideally a channel-set band, with some interesting detail to set it apart. But we're also on a budget, so I'm looking at places that can do great work for less.
Thanks!
