Over the last few years, I have been able to successfully shed weight that dogged me for years. I am down 60 pounds from the day I got married. I joke with my wife (who does not read this blog) that she has 25% less husband. Believe me, she does not mind. After the bulk of the weight came off, I found that nearly all my clothing did not fit. Interestingly and unexpectedly, my wedding band started falling off my ring finger with regularity. So I put the band on my middle finger and there it stayed. I have found recently that the band was now loose on my middle finger. I have kept the weight off for nearly 2 years, so I figured that this is the new me and I need to get the band fixed.<\/p>\n
I checked with a local jeweler. My ring size was now an 8.5. My band was a 10.5. So 25% less husband means dropping 2 ring sizes. Good to know. I have been a fan and customer of Blue Nile<\/a> since buying my wife’s engagement ring from them. That ring is perfect for her and the price was so good that I did not mind paying WA state sales tax. Naturally after that experience, we bought our bands from Blue Nile<\/a>.<\/p>\n Now I had a band that did not fit. I got in touch with Blue Nile<\/a> and explained that situation. Regardless that these bands were purchased many years ago, they found my account and were very quick to respond that they could in fact re-size the band — without charge. The band looks brand new. The only cost to me was the $10 to send it back to them. Other jewelers were quotes in the 7-10x of that $10. Blue Nile<\/a> customer service was great throughout. At every step, their email responses were through and fast. They delivered notices on expected ship dates and tracking. There was not any point when I was “band-less” that I did not know where it was — a huge relief.<\/p>\n Blue Nile<\/a> has always provided great shopping experiences for me, but now I have no reason to look for jewelery anywhere else. Many thanks Blue Nile<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over the last few years, I have been able to successfully shed weight that dogged me for years.
