Similar incident happened to me. when we were on a carnival cruise many years ago, we went to a recommended jeweler called New York Jewelry. probably in cancun or cozumel. wife bought a sold 22 carat gold ring for 500.00. got a certificate stating the gold content. after several months, she noticed that in some parts of the ring, silver was showing. when she rubbed the ring against a coarse paper, the gold plate came off. in other words, it was a cheap gold plated silver ring. since then, we have been on many cruises, WE NEVER BUY ANY ELECTRONICS, JEWELRY, PERFUMES ( SHE GOT SCENTED WATER IN A BRAND NAME PERFUME) OR OTHER EXPENSIVE ITEMS from Any of these shops. the merchants realize that you are totally powerless to do anything, you will only discover the fake after you have left the city. and you will never return there again, so you cant do anything. cant take them to court, cant file a complaint, and the cruise line wont do anything. bottom line. these merchants ARE FIRST CLASS CROOKS LOOKING FOR SUCKERS.

For people who have a problem with Diamonds International may I suggest you send your "problem" to
Jo-Ann and she will take up your case for a fee of $100 YES $100!!
She took my case on with DI after a $10,000 "Crown of Light" diamond just fell out of its setting as it was poorly set.
She won a full refund and the cost of a specialist expert to review the setting for $400. I would suggest that you contact her right away if you have problems with Diamonds Internation.
