Brilliant service
I recently contacted MDC diamonds to enquire about having a engagement ring made, after looking through the website I had an online chat with Rosa who was very helpful, followed by several phone calls with moishy who called me in the uk from the new York office, moishy advised on the best setting to go with my choice of diamond, and after the conversation I was happy to place the order.
I was kept updated on the progress of my order throughout the process, and received the ring very well packed through insured FeDex within 14 days of my original order which I thought was very good considering the ring had to be made specially!,
The ring was lovely and my now fiancé loved it, I asked her on our trip to new York and we managed to pop in and meet Moishy which was great!
Thanks for your help and great service Moishy, if we have any more diamond requirements MDC will be our first calling point
