Default Buying Diamond Earrings off E-Bay?

I'm looking to buy my wife some diamond earrings for Christmas, but she's very specific about what she wants (what woman isn't?!). Anyway, there are tons of "certified" Princess-cut diamond earrings for sale on E-Bay for much less than buying at the local jewelry stores. Has anybody bought diamond jewelry off E-Bay? What have your experiences been? Can you trust the ratings? Help me out, guys!

Brian

Check out bluenile dot com

You can find some good deals through that site from time to time.

After you buy the diamonds, I have a device that you will need for your car.
It will take it from 400+WHP to 10-WHP. It only takes about 5min. to install.

Yup Its called a CARSEAT.

Thanks all. I'm going to the Jewelry Source this weekend and take a look. I got her engagement ring and our wedding rings there. If they don't have anything decent or priced right, I'll probably do Blue Nile.
