She loved to wear them but the sixth time she went to wear them the pearl fell off the post. The company has offered to fix it for free but I am responsible for shipping it to them. Considering this is going to Los Angeles from Florida I just don't trust that I may get the pearls back. IMO the mounting of the pearls is shoddy at best. I will never buy from them again. Go with a trusted brand like Tiffany or buy locally.&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Mon, 11 Sep 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Patricia C. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>I bought a bracelet last year and the clasp has never worked right. The string is also raggedy even though I have worn the bracelet maybe 5 times because it comes undone. They want me to pay for a restring AND perhaps a clasp (or it could be adjusted). The clasp looks nothing like the picture. I am not going to pay to ship back, then $75 for a restring, then who knows how much more for the clasp. I will not be buying anything from these folks again.&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Tue, 29 Aug 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Eliona C. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>I bought 6 items from Pearls of Joy. 1 set of necklace + bracelet + earrings and 2 separate earrings. I asked to get the set in 3 different little boxes because were going to be gifted from different people of my family and they could not accomodate, even if their website attest the contrary. They suggested to sell me 2 extra boxes for $30 but the pearls package was already shipped by then, so was too late. I found their answer quite cheap anyway as I just spent almost $2000.

Ordered a gem grade necklace, earrings, and a bracelet. Overall pearls looked nice, although not very round as it was described. 
I had to reorder the bracelet 3 times because every time they send a wrong size. 5.5,7,7.5 but never 6.5 as I ordered. With each exchange request they attempted to charge extra $30 for resizing, although it was their fault. They also tried to charge extra for shipping (has to be free per their policy). On my last attempt they...&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Tue, 18 Feb 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Dan F. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>I bought my wife a pearl bracelet for Christmas. By May the bracelet band had broken. We emailed customer service and they wanted to charge us $25 to restring it.

It's like having the cross between a personal pearl concierge and Indiana Jones. You might laugh, but it really isn't that far off.

Let me paint the picture for you. My wife decided she wanted a strand of special pearls. She spent some time reading a forum on pearls and decided she had to have a necklace of blue and pink pearls from Vietnam. Thinking it wasn't a big deal I filed that thought in my mind for he...&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Sun, 28 May 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Duke M. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>After looking at how expensive mikimoto pearls I'm glad I found Kevin at Pearls Of Joy.

I can't speak to all his pearls, but the Tahitian pearl necklace I just purchased was stunning. I took it to my wifes jeweler and he said we got a fantastic deal - we're happy campers.&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Fri, 03 Apr 2015 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Dan D. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>I had purchased a pair of pearl earrings for my wife in Late October, 2013 from this internet company. I was persuaded by various reviews and after personally speaking with the company president, Kevin. He indicated that he was aware that a big hurdle
 for his business was overcoming suspicion to purchase online. After making my purchase, and receiving the earrings, I was disappointed with the purported quality, and the hue was definitely wrong. I contacted Kevin by telephone and email, and...&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Wed, 18 Dec 2013 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Patricia L. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>Thank you, Kevin, for working with me on replacing the earrings with ones that are more like what I had in mind.

 with you again anytime, because of your sincere care towards your customers. Thank you again.

I have to admit I was nervous buying this online and was tempted to go to Macy's. However, I spoke to the owner Kevin whose # was posted on their website. He helped me choose and assured me I would be happy with the product. The necklace arrived quickly and was perfect. It came with a GIA insurance valuation cert and nice box. I shopped around and the price was good for AAA pearls. I would have no hesitation in recommending pearlsofjoy.com for...&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Fri, 28 Dec 2012 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>David M. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>I called Kevin on a Friday(in a panic) needing a strand of pearls for my Wife's birthday on Saturday. Kevin was kind enough to explain the different types of pearls and helped me choose the perfect Akoya pearl strand for my lady. 

Not only did he take the time to walk me through the purchase but he rushed the order for me and in less then 24hrs I had the pearls in my Wife's hands.

Happy wife = Happy life

Very pleased and will shop again.&lt;a class="url" href="https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254"&gt; Read More &amp;#187;&lt;/a&gt;</description><pubDate>Mon, 02 Apr 2012 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Sharon M. posted a review</title><link>https://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Pearls-of-Joy-205952254</link><description>I heard about this company from the Pearl-Guide.com, which contains a discussion forum with contributions from various internet-based pearl dealers. Dealer participants are supposedly "reputable", and since I found no negative information about this LA-based company (which is also a contributor), I decided to place an order for a South Seas pendant with diamond accents. The order arrived timely (in about a week).
