Diamonds On Web Debuts “Don’t Pay Until You See the Diamond At Your Door” Policy
Posted by: | CommentsFrom PRNewswire:
DiamondsOnWeb.com has debuted a new service that they call ‘Don’t Pay Until You See the Diamond at Your Door.’
According to the press release:
The policy applies to certified loose diamonds and engagement rings costing less than $10,000 purchased by U.S. customers. Customers must authorize their credit card prior to shipping, and the card will only be charged upon customer approval. Diamonds on Web also provides free return shipping within 10 days of the delivery date, a 30 day Money Back Guarantee, and lifetime upgrades.
As times got tough, diamond vendors, whether online or bricks and mortar, have done all they can to attract business away from the competition. Diamonds on Web has been around a long time, and are a very clever company. They’ve always had a competitive edge as their prices were among the lowest in the industry, but now this initiative definitely sets them apart from the competition. I, personally, have dealt with their CEO back when I was a salesman for Leo Schachter, and I can vouch both for his skill as a diamond buyer (which means lower prices for you) and his personal integrity.
To Boldly Go Where no Geek has Gone Before

Considering a wedding that is out of this world? Consider a Star Trek wedding theme!
Brad Siegel, 53, and Kate Erwin, 34, are doing it! The couple won a contest and will be married on a mock-up of the Starship Enterprise 1701-D bridge, which is part of a traveling Star Trek exhibit at the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia. What better way to celebrate their love for each other and their love for the Star Trek series?The couple met three years ago at a Star Trek convention. Although their common interests in Star Trek are generations apart, Siegal being a Star Trek original fan while Erwin is more of a Star Trek the Next Generation fan, they still managed to find enough common perspectives on life to stick together.
Siegel proposed to Erwin during an Star Trek convention in Secaucus in March of 2009. He planned it so that they would both be on stage to receive “prizes” and he could propose to her in front of hundreds of people and fellow fans.
The Franklin Institute contest encouraged entrants to display and combination of romance and geekiness; Seigal and Erwin were totally game for it and how could they not be? Their relationship was founded on Star Trek love!
What could be more romantic and geeky than Siegal asking Erwin if she would “…be [his] wife … [his] imzadi?” Imzadi is term of endearment from the Star Trek Next Generation’s fictional language of Betazoid. Entering the Franklin Institute competition was easy, the couple simply explained how Star Trek and their frequent Star Trek convention visits have helped to weave their own special kind of romance.The contest was narrowed down to three couples chosen by a panel of judges, including George Takei, who played Sulu on the original Star Trek series. Siegal and Erwin were chosen as the winners after a public vote.
The Franklin Institute will provide a Star Trek themed wedding cake, champagne, and space for the reception. Siegal and Erwin are planning yummy treats for their guests including Klingon qagh, a Star Trek dish of serpent worms that is best served while they are alive, but will likely be substituted with noodles colored red and black with food coloring, as serpent worms are out of season.
They anticipate that their wedding guests will come donned in various Star Trek ensembles to make this wedding totally out of this world!
