I was looking for pearl necklaces for my wife - a Valentines Day gift - and came across this site - www.pearlprincess.com. Has anyone purchased from them before? I looked at their customer testimonials and every single customer of theirs has an anglo-saxon name but writes broken Indian-English :roll: The language is identical to the rest of the site. The site appears to be run by an Indian guy. I finally purchased from www.nationalpearl.com but wanted to know if any of you guys have any experience buying pearls online. The prices seem to vary so drastically. I finally went with a place that seemed expensive enough to be genuine without making me broke :p

Their "testmonils" page...

...about buying online? :confused: Why would someone at a jeweler's shop give me any objective advice about buying online :p
