BIDZ.COM, INC. Reviews

  • Mar 28, 2015

I was on the auction site Bidz.com looking with my boyfriend at that time, now husband, for an engagement ring. We found one we loved and won the auction at a steal, $1,500.00. We paid for the grading and warranty report and were pleased when it arrived on time. It looked great, only to find out the G- Colour, S1, 1.58 crt, round cut diamond, was in fact, a massionite gem. The grading report stated it was a natural diamond, and confirmed everything that Bidz.com said it was.

To make things even more complicated, I just tried to find the Gem Report company, Independent Gemological Laboratories, 5950 West Jefferson Blvd CA 90016, www.dia-labs.com. They have shut down their Los Angeles's office . There is a new office in New York, with the same website address and the same Founder. I called the New York office and I asked if they ever had a Los Angeles address and he admitted they did but it closed down. So I asked, I have a certificate I'm trying to verify. I asked him who the CEO of his company was and he asked me to hold the line. He came back saying, " I spoke to my boss and he said that Bidz is back up and running again and to call them". So I asked him again who his boss was and he hung up. I didn't write down everything here but he avoided answering who founded the company and if I could speak to a senior manager. so what I can only conclude is that the two companies are one of the same.

I did some research and the two companies have the same founder, different address and are just evading the bad press associated to their dealings with Bidz by selling Bidz fake grading reports and simply moving offices and thus ownership of this issue. Or someone used their name and reputation and opened up a fraudulent company, one that Bidz employed and contracted their business out to. So is Bidz in a conspiracy to defraud customers with using a fake company to make fraudulent Gem reports. Or is it the same shady gem report company conspiring with Bidz. Or maybe Bidz did not know the company was swapping their diamonds and they are truly not responsible. I don't know what's going on. But the site gets a lot of buyers and they got me for $1,500.00. There are many more out there just like me. To sum it up, I got a fake gem report, a fake diamond, from a shut down or moved company and no one claiming any responsibility. Both companies go on with their regular business dealings and I'm left holding the buck.
