Didn't know Jose Grant was in the practice of buying their jewelry from carpetbaggers. Their stuff is totally overpriced anyway. Better check anything you've purchased from them. So now Jose Grant got ripped off. Karma is great!

I guess these are not reputable jewelers. I have brought things to be appraised for insurance purposes at jewelry stores and they tested everything, Did these guys just look and say Yup it's gold..If they did they deserve to be taken ...very poor business men. If anyone has bought any diamonds or gold from them I would take it somewhere to be tested, These guys sound like the type who would take a ring in to be re- sized or repaired and change the diamond( only takes a second)..Buyer beware!

Daily Horoscope for November 26

Gemini

Your eleventh house of friends and associates is activated by the Moon in Aries and it's time to go out and play with your friends. Even the Twins, who have been somewhat reclusive lately, will benefit from socializing tonight. A sense of relief will take hold when you realize that no one really has a better life than you. Sure, it might seem like someone else has a more glamorous existence, but if you could be a fly on the wall in their bedroom, you'd find they have nightmares, too!
