GemFind, one of the first and currently foremost internet sites to offer consumers access to an affiliated network of jewelers for loose diamonds (http://www.gemfind.com), designer jewelry and other precious gems, announces that International Diamond & Jewelry of Chicago, Illinois has become an affiliate member of its extensive collective of diamond merchants, appraisers, gemologists, diamond cutters and diamond jewelers. IDJ is a family owned-and operated diamond jeweler now it its 25th year of operation.

Expressing his satisfaction with the new partnership, Gemfind.com President Alex Fetanat points out how each new member of the GemFind.com network increases the availability and variety of fine diamonds at more competitive prices. Explaining his company's operations, Fetanat says that the network allows customers interested in buying diamonds and designer jewelry (http://www.gemfind.com) to see these certified diamonds "first-hand at a local jewelers [in their own community and then consult with a professional before making a final decision." In such cases, Fetanat says, "Gemfind offers a much better system than that used by many other online retail diamond jewelers, where customers only have the option to buy their diamonds using only pictures as a reference."

Fetanat adds that GemFind will "only allow highly respected diamond wholesalers...into the GemFind Network." When it came to IDJ Inc., however, the decision was easy. An IDJ representative says "we constantly strive to foster the same family environment that defines IDJ with each and every one of our valued clients."

This approach, combined with the GemFind.com 30--day, hassle-free return policy promises to make shopping for jewelry online much more enjoyable and relaxed for diamond jewelry (http://www.gemfind.com) buyers.
