St. Thomas for sure...my sister bought me a pair of 14K gold, princess cut 1/2 carat (total) stud diamond earrings - $399. -- appraised today at $1,500. If you would like the name of the shop I will ask my sister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London, Canada Posted March 13, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 13, 2010 The name and address of the shop is: GH Jewellery Centre 33 Raadets Gade St. Thomas. It is not right on the main street, downtown...it is off the beaten path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhsail Posted March 13, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 13, 2010 We have made several purchases at Kay's in St. Marteen. We always work with Bob. If you know exactly what you're looking for, always price it back in the States first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's very little time for comparison shopping. I have read horror stories about jewelry purchases in the Caribbean. If the piece is damaged or under-graded :cool: laws don't protect you.

We have made many purchases at Kays in St. Martin and always been very satisfied with the quality, and the price has always beat anything we have found in St. Thomas.
