I just wanted to let you know that She is absolutely thrilled with her rings and earrings. She was surprised and had no clue that we upgraded her setting. That's exactly why we enjoy shopping at your store, excellent customer service. She can't stop looking at her new setting and thinks that I'm the man, and after all that's most important. When she is happy, I'm happy. Thank you!
Looking forward to our next upgrade. Thanks again, and please let your staff know that once again everything was perfect and that we couldn't be more pleased ... Vincent P., Rockville, MD

Thank you guys so much. I wanted to let you know that my wife almost fell out of bed when I gave her the anniversary band you helped me with. - Colin


Melissa and I would like to express our appreciation and gratitude to you both for the excellent customer service and quality we found at Washington Diamond. My experience buying engagement ring left no doubt that I would be back to purchase our wedding bands, and from our recent experiences with Washington Diamond, I am sure we made the right decision. Allison made Melissa and I feel very comfortable and guided us through the entire process as Tom did back in the "engagement ring phase." You has been extremely helpful and has made this part of the wedding preparation process much less stressful! Should I say more enjoyable! M.A. Lorton

I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful service I received at Washington Diamond. I proposed to Sheryl the other night and she absolutely loved the ring. You were a great help! E.G.


Thank you! The engagement ring that you gave so much of your time helping me to create turned out amazing! Needless to say, she couldn't be happier with the ring, and we are still celebrating. I want to thank you once again for all of your time and patience in guiding me through the process. You selflessly gave an enormous amount of both. Without a doubt, you have earned my trust, which, as you know, is not an easy thing to do. In doing so, you have gained a loyal customer and a outspoken advocate for both you and your business. Thank you for kindness, candor, and integrity in all of our many meetings. I look forward to many years of business together. D.P.

Hi Tom, I'm sorry I did not get back to you earlier to convey the news of how my engagement to Melanie went. However Melanie was very elated when I proposed and her eyes exploded with delight when I presented the enegagement ring to her aboard our sailboat on the Annapolis bay in October. She still cant get over how beautiful it is and I doubt never will!! Evryone who see's it comments on its beauty and design. You really did a great job with the setting the more I look at it. The whole diamond buying process with you, will stay in my mind as a very smooth purchase and an outstanding price for a special ring that will be with us for a lifetime. Thanks so much. Darren


I would like to thank you and your staff for your service in resizing and refinishing my wedding ring. When it was cut down, you said that you wouldn't be able to exactly re-create the finish, and that it would be a bit different, which I accepted. When I received it after it was resized, it was indeed different. It turned out better. The new finish is much more durable than the original. Whereas the old brushed finish scratched very easily, the new is bulletproof. And in cutting it down, the cut was placed to remove some of the existing damage on the polished sides. The new fit is perfect as well. Thanks again, Luis


The ring was a big hit. Our independent appraisal was also a satisfactory experience. We are very happy with both price and product. We shall recommend your business should the occasion arise. We would also strongly consider your business for future purchases. Thank you for a pleasant shopping experience. - Jesse C.


I loved working with your staff. Having worked for Ritz-Carlton as a Concierge for a number of years I recognize first class service, Washington Diamond is a 5-star business! - Andrew K


I would require all the employees to be as good looking as Tom Daube! :-) - Michael K.


Tom, I just wanted to thank you for all of your assistance, understanding, and patience in helping me select the ideal diamond and setting. She absolutely loves it and it looks amazing. You were a big help and it was a pleasure doing business with you. I'll be sure to continue using your services in the future, and will be sure to refer any of my family and friends who are in the market for jewelry
Thanks again and take care. Mike L


I gave the diamond ring to Michele this weekend and she absolutely loved it. Also, I love it more and more each time I look at it and the size was perfect. I don't think we will be changing a thing on the ring. P.S. Everyone that Michele has shown the ring to has been very impressed with the design, the diamond, and the workmanship! JC from Arlington, VA


Throughout the years I have been in many jewelry stores and shops, and I must say that I was extremely impressed with your office. It was a wonderful experience to talk at ease with you and help me understand my own ideas while ensure that I received great value. ...JS


Washington Diamond was my first stop on the road to buying an engagement ring, and it was my last. When nearing the end of my journey (over 19 stores later), I knew I would not feel complete if I failed to re-visit the impeccable service and non-pressured environment that originally welcomed me into the engagement ring experience. I'm glad I did because Washington Diamond's approach, price, and product were perfect. I wholeheartedly praise Tom Daube and Washington Diamond for their commitment to making the buying of an engagement ring one of the most memorable moments of my life. I look forward to doing business forever. Thank you again and again.

AD, Alexandria


I wanted to take a minute to thank you and the others on staff at Washington Diamond who made my "quality diamond buying experience" one that I plan to share with all of my friends and family. After my initial visit, you had a diamond over-nighted to the store for my review and once I saw it, I knew we had a keeper. You and the rest of the staff were then able to craft a setting that complemented the stone. Since presenting the ring, I have also been very pleased with the post-purchase service. We plan to continue to bring the ring to you for service because the job will be done correctly and professionally. Now that the shock has worn off, I still can't help but admire the work of art that we created. Lisa has had countless comments about the ring in the week that she has worn it. Lisa tells me that I did a great job and that she is extremely happy... The fact of the matter is, I can't take much of the credit...

JB, Potomac Falls, VA


When I showed her the ring, she couldn't believe it. She says it came out even better than she envisioned it. Although a number of other jewelers in the DC area told us that the ring design we wanted couldn't be done, you and Washington Diamond didn't even hesitate. Rather than trying to sell us something we wouldn't have been happy with, you took the time to sit down with us and discuss our needs personally, brought the design together perfectly and even delivered the ring on schedule. We'll be back to buy our bands; in the meantime, please accept our sincere appreciation for a job well done.

BL, Alexandria,VA


Dear Tom,
...Just wanted to take a minute to thank you and all your staff for the "once again" excellent service and professionalism. When we purchased our diamond from you nearly nine years ago we knew that we had made a fantastic choice in choosing your company. Your business and your staff are professional, kind and extremely knowledgeable. You are a "big diamond company" that is able to maintain are warm, friendly, comfortable atmosphere. Your staff is genuinely excited for their clients to walk away wearing a beautiful diamond. They are proud of their work and deserve to be proud. A diamond is a fabulous stone, but when set in such care and in just the right way it makes it even more perfect! You are all in the right line of work!Thanks again...We love it!

R&FS, Vienna, VA 8/21/01


I got the ring and it is beautiful! I've never bought a certified diamond before and you definitely didn't let me down, this diamond is magnificent! It's so clear and the cuts really sparkle. I am VERY impressed with your product and your service. Walter, it's been a pleasure doing business with you and I can guarantee that I will buy from you again. I will also be sure to tell all of my friends here... how great Washington Diamond is. Thanks for my wonderful ring (I'll let you know what my wife thinks after I give it to her :) and I look forward to doing business with you again.

S.H, Tucson, AZ May 10th, 2001


Thanks Washington Diamonds for scoring the watch of my dreams and at SUCH an affordable price!!! Most stores told me it wouldn't be available until fall and you had it on my wrist in less then 2 weeks!! You guys are ROCK STARS in every sense of the word.
Hey AOL comrades, you'd be crazy to pay full price on diamonds again!!

ADA/WMG - Minneapolis MN 07/05/2001


I just wanted to write and tell you how much I appreciated your time and commitment to helping me select a setting for a diamond I owned. This was for an engagement ring. I believe it was back in middle May when I came in to look. I had visited other jewelers before considering Washington Diamond and after just the brief time with you I noticed the difference. One thing that helped me decide on Washington Diamond was your approach. At other places I felt pressured and noticed a "salesman" type mentality. You looked out for my best interests while not going beyond my set boundaries. I must admit, when looking elsewhere and speaking with others about purchasing a ring, I became anxious. However, your no pressure approach alleviated any nervousness I had. Your honesty and knowledge made the purchase a pleasant event. From the professional staff to the fair price I paid, the whole experience was a great! The ring came out even better than I imagined. I proposed shortly after picking up the ring and she said yes! She loves it and cannot stop looking at it. She is as satisfied with the ring as I am. We will be in to pick out our wedding bands shortly. Hope to see you soon!

J.R., Centreville, VA 7/5/2001


Just wanted to pass along my thanks for the great engagement ring your crew designed for me. Lori's one requirement (just joking she now says) was that it "reflect moonlight". My plan was to ask her to marry me during our vacation to Myrtle Beach last week. (The moon was full and I needed all the help I could get!!) Got rained out the first night but the weather cooperated on Monday, and the moon was shining bright and reflecting beautifully off the ocean. As we walked along the water at about 10:00 PM, I pulled the ring out of my pocket, "pretended" to find it on the beach, pointed it toward the moon and saw a very pretty sparkling blue hue. I said, "look, it reflects moonlight"! Lori had a very stunned look on her face. I asked her if she thought it would fit? The light finally came as to what was happening and, with tears in her eyes, she held out her hand and said "somehow I think so"!!! The rest is history and a June wedding is planned. Everyone that has seen the ring is very impressed and usually responds by saying, "Wow". Most of the women are jealous and the guys in her office have instructed her to keep it away from they're wives!! Thanks again!! We're both very happy.

DC...Alexandria, VA


You made a once in a lifetime purchase, a joy to make.... CR,..Fredericksburg, VA


Just letting you know that I got back from Mexico and she loved the ring and of course said yes. .... Thanks for being so accommodating!

A.S ... Arlington, VA


Words cannot express how happy you have made my fiancee and I feel. Your expertise in gemology assisted us in getting, slightly larger & more brilliant stone without any additional expense.
Thank you so much! ... the extra time you spent with me an my situation made all the difference between "Tragedy and Tranquillity"

LH,..Reston, VA


Although I had read books, talked with friends, and done research on the internet on how to evaluate diamonds, I still had a great deal of anxiety on the day I came in to talk with you. I felt like you provided me with high quality information and insight into the aspects I should be looking for in a diamond, and that you addressed my questions professionally, respecting the fact that this was not a easy decision for anyone to make.
The most important thing to me is that I walked out of your store feeling very happy with my purchase, and that my beautiful wife-to-be was going to be thrilled with the ring I had picked for her. I have also been happy with the service you have provided post-purchase. It is very nice to be able to call and speak to you personally, or one of your highly qualified staff about questions or concerns I have about how to care for the diamond, and other relevant issues.

KKT, Bethesda, MD


Thanks for all your help in making this a memorable buying experience and part of such a major Event! She loves the diamond/platinum ring combination!

V.M ...Rockville, MD


Yup, I had planned on proposing to her this weekend, but after I picked up the ring last Friday I couldn't wait. You guys did a superb job that I HAD to propose that night. Again, thanks for all the good work and kind advice. Rest assured that I'll be telling EVERYONE I know about Washington Diamond for all their jewelry needs....BM..Falls Church


I just wanted to say thanks for the excellent service you provided me while I was shopping for my Big Diamond. I walked away with a feeling of satisfaction that I bought the perfect diamond within my means. I will tell all my friends about Washington Diamond and the excellent service I received. My fiancee loved the ring and is excited about shopping for the wedding bands at your store.


I did my Christmas shopping this year on the net, except for my diamond necklace. I just had to visit Tom, since it is always a fun experience and you just can't beat his advice. More importantly, the I've always been very happy with the product!..Alex


I'm really excited about the ring that you have put together. Of all the jewelers ...Washington Diamond is by far the most helpful and friendly. ...I feel extremely confident that this ring ...will be perfect for representing the love I have for her.-bm


Tom, I came in a few weeks ago and bought some earrings for my wife's anniversary. I have been meaning to get back to you and tell you how much she likes them and wears them all the time. Thanks for everything.


Jaken and I would just like to thank you for treating us so well on Saturday. We know we put you in a very tough position, and we appreciate how you patiently understood and handled our concerns.


... you advised me to shop around and compare before purchasing any stone. Well I took your advice and having the good fortune of being in the Navy, I compared your prices to other retailers...and your prices couldn't be beat!!!


My fiance and I were thrilled with Washington Diamond. We were treated professional...and you carried far more diamonds in the price/shape/ quality range we were interested. I'm so grateful we shopped at Washington Diamond. FS, Silver Spring MD,


Good morning We just wanted to say thank you for spending time with us last night. We are so pleased with the ring -- last night is a wonderful memory! We look forward to working with you in the future! ... SR, Clifton, VA,


Thank you for operating a genuine and ethical business...and for providing an atmosphere where I know I am able to return when I decide that another diamond purchase is in my future. JH, Alexandria VA.


From my first visit to my last, you made me feel comfortable and relaxed. The atmosphere seemed professional and the staff appeared extremely competent. I am thoroughly convinced I bought the best diamond from the best merchant in the area..JM,VA


I turned around to find him on one knee, with tears in his eyes, extending an open box with my beautiful engagement ring that he designed himself, requesting my hand in marriage. WOW!!!!!!!!!


The diamond ring we bought is exactly the ring we were looking for. The stones are beautiful, the workmanship is excellent, the price is the best around, the people were nice and honest. I encourage you to look very closely at Washington Diamond. LG


Thanks to you, I purchased a better diamond. You and your diamond buying guide educated me to the important facts about buying a diamond. Thank you for making this experience a pleasurable one...MF, Leesburg VA.


The ring is so beautiful. It breaks my heart to send it back. But, I can't wait to see the new one in gold! ... I don't know who is luckier to have Michael for a husband, you or me


I just wanted to let you know that everything went well with my engagement. She loves the ring


I just wanted to drop you a quick note and thank you for making a difficult purchase a great experience. In the short time I spent with you yesterday, I learned more about diamonds than the previous 7-8 hours I spent with other merchants..MT


Taking into consideration the quality of diamonds that you offer and compared with the majority of jewelry dealers in the Washington & No.VA. area; your prices were extremely reasonable...K.M


The first thought that came to mind when I read your ads about your signature [Americut] line of diamonds was higher overhead=higher cost. However, that wasn't the case once I saw what great quality diamonds you offer... K.M.


I was impressed by your knowledge, demeanor and quality of the diamonds you sell. You were very responsive to my needs and I felt I received excellent value for the stone I selected. MB, Washington DC.


First, let me say how ecstatic Beth is with the ring. ...Guys just roll their eyes. And some of the women have even told me, "Good job." ... I still say, "Damn DeBeers", but also, "Thank you, Robert." P.S., Stafford, VA


I visited several businesses in the Washington area and found your company to have the best service, the most reasonable prices and largest selection of high quality diamonds. I...will highly recommend you..RB, Reston VA


Your professionalism and service, to say nothing of your selection and prices, have been god sent. RG


Thanks for all your help on the ring I purchased before Christmas. It was a glowing success. I am now happily engaged and my fiancée has a ring that she and I are very proud of. Thanks again...RH


...I very much want to thank you for the personalized attention you have shown us. We really appreciate the extra effort you have taken... In fact your establishment was quite exceptional and without comparison. ST, Fruitland MD


You were by far the most honest person I dealt with. In fact, you talked me into buying the diamond I purchased from another store. I will recommend your store to friends and visit when we are looking again.


I thought you probably had the best selection of diamonds in stock of anyplace I visited... T.S., Wash., DC


Thank you for the most beautiful diamond and setting a woman could ever dream of... You told me it would be either a disaster or fabulous. Fabulous it is! Please thank everyone who worked on our setting and for making it so perfect for us. I will treasure it always.
-Peggi and Chris


Washington Diamond carries Canadian non-conflict diamonds, offers competitive prices, and has a friendly and informative sales staff. I bought my wife's engagement ring here and have never second-guessed my decision. Having considered much of the competition in my own search, I've gladly shared my recommendation of Washington Diamond with several friends."
Thanks and best wishes,
Mark Hamilton


Everyone, of course, compliments the ring and a number of people are amazed that I picked it out "myself" (once again... THANK YOU). A woman at her work took her aside and said something to the effect, "I didn't want to say it in front of the other girls, but that is the most beautiful engagement ring I have ever seen."...
TT, Alexandria VA


Buying any piece of jewelry can be daunting. But when you are looking for the ring of a lifetime, all bets are off. Face it -- you need a professional. Luckily, Washington Diamond isn't far. Since 1969 this Falls Church store has helped nervous grooms-to-be and diamond-struck brides-to-be pick out the perfect stone, setting and style. The family business has appraised and designed jewelry for the Washington area's elite and ignoble alike with equal care and patience. And those clients have been sending their family, friends and neighbors to Washington Diamond for the same reason they walked out smiling in the first place: the folks who work here. Owner Tom Daube and his co-workers will make you feel welcome, confident and inspired to purchase a beautiful piece of jewelry. And you'll want to tell everyone about it.
-- Sara Chauhan & AOL Cityguide


We would like to thank you for the excellent service you provided us. The engagement ring turned out beautifully and we couldn't be happier with the quality and value of the setting. We also appreciate your thoughtful advice regarding how best to honor the history of the 100-year-old family diamond used for the ring. Your expertise, professionalism, and sense of humor turned what we expected to be an intimidating experience into a fun and enjoyable one. We were thoroughly impressed with Washington Diamond and have already recommended you to several friends and family members. We plan to make Washington Diamond our family jeweler. Thanks again and best wishes.
Sincerely, Eben and Erin


I would like to thank you for making my engagement ring search most pleasurable. My ring is beautiful and everyone who see’s it comments on its beauty and craftsmanship.

Before I came to Washington Diamonds I visited four different jewelry stores; Boscov’s, Jared’s, Gordon’s and Robbins. All of which were very unsatisfying in all aspects of searching/purchasing an engagement. No explanation was provided regarding the grading and/or attributes of the diamond at Boscov’s nor did they provide a recognized certification for the diamond ring that we purchased. The ring was returned and the next stop was Jared’s where my fiancée and I were offered refreshments upon entry of the store and then we were left sitting at the display counter for 15 minutes before we decided to leave because no sales person ever came over to assist us. The next encounter was Gordon’s were we actually purchased a diamond ring without a sales person explaining the grading and/or attributes of the diamond we purchased. After wearing the ring for a week or so I noticed a huge flaw almost like a crack through the center of my diamond. In speaking with several of my closest friends I was informed that I should have received a certification for the ring to explain the information that the sales person did not regarding the grading and attributes of my diamond. I returned to the store to request my paperwork and was informed that the diamond ring was not certified and they could not provide the color or clarity, but they could provide an appraisal costing $95.00. After researching their web site where it states “Diamond certification is documentation of a diamond’s grading or attributes. Unlike most other diamonds, Gordon’s Diamond comes with two diamond certificates.” Once again I returned a ring. The next stop was Robbins where they did take the time to explain the diamonds grading and attributes, but according to the sales person the only stone in our price range was a yellow colored diamond. Again because I am not a diamond expert and I do not know the cost of diamonds we purchased a ring again. I got home and I called a close frien d who had just purchased a ring from Washington Diamonds. She provided the web site and I researched the diamond we purchased at Robbins by color, clarity, etc... I found that Robbins had over-charged us and I was unhappy with the choice, because the stone was visibly yellow. Since the ring was on its way to get sized we called and cancelled it. The next day I contacted Tom from Washington Diamonds and made an appointment to search for an engagement ring. Upon arrival at Washington we were greeted very warmly. Within 10 to 15 minutes we were escorted into a private office where we met with Tom and he asked us what we were looking for in color, clarity, size and price range. Then he showed us not 1 diamond at a time, but about 5-6. With in less then 20 minutes he was able to accommodate us on our every wish and meet our expectations.

Warmly,
Veronica Emge

The best diamonds! No other business compares.
by christy McCarty


Washington Diamond is the most professionally operated, customer oriented jewlery business that I have visited. As a result of their superb service and unsurpassed attention to detail, I have made Washington Diamond my life long jeweler. Unsurpassed excellence.
by J. Spiller


Great customer service - every one in the shop is knowledgeable, helpful, and fun! The best pricing, quality, and environment in which to shop for and purchase diamonds and fine jewelry. It is a small intimate store with a very BIG effect. Oh, and they have a starbucks coffee machine....not that it matters-:) Thanks.
by Margaret Rose


They are willing to work with you on any request you may have. They are not stuffy like some big brand names, but their quality is amazing. We recommend them to everyone we know!
by Lindsay Patterson


Great prices and friendly service!
by Jim Worthen


Because Walter Via's humbleness makes a "small sell" feel big time! That diamond ring had Catalina Island "lit up"! Thanks again Walter. Wifey and I will bring pictures when we come in for a cleaning.
by Earl Richardson


They have the best customer service, selection, quality and prices. And don't forget Tom Daube who is totally wonderful. You tell him what you are looking for and the price range and he comes up with it on the spot. Every purchase is private and not in front of other shoppers. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
by Anne Phillips


I have been doing business with Washington Diamond for over 20 yrs. and they have always acted with my best interest at heart. Tom (the owner) is one of the few people in this world that I trust completely, he is honest and above-board without exception.
by Doug Whiteley


The color & clarity of diamonds from Washington Diamond cannot be matched in my area. Tom Daube & his staff treat the client very respectfully.

Great selection, quality and prices!

Knowledge of the product and Customer Service
by Jason Hudak


My new three-stone diamond ring is stunning thanks to Tom Daube at Washington Diamond! We are extremely happy with our purchase and Tom was very professional. We will go back to Washington Diamond again!
by Nancy Nahas


Washington Diamond is socially conscious and is willing to work with you to get exactly what you want.
by Jody Olson


Great value, friendly and patient service, Tom is wonderful.
by Steven Ferri


The customer service is outstanding. They don't try to sell you something you don't want--I turned down 3 perfectly good diamonds before I found the one that was perfect for me. Never did the sales representative pressure me to accept one of the first three stones he showed me or try to convince me that my hesitations were unwarranted. I highly recommend Washington Diamond.
by Melissa Thaxton


Unlike other retailers who can only hand you a catalog of settings or show you what's under the case, Washington Diamond takes pride in creating an engagement setting that fits your personality. The jewelers there can take your ideas and turn them into the ring of your dreams. No one in the world will have a ring exactly like yours.
by Michele Maguire


I needed a custom ring made in a very short timeframe. Not only did they exceed my expectation on the delivery of the ring, their after sale customer service was outstanding. Great Job!
by Neil


The best product (stones, metals) I have seen in the area and amazing customer service.

Tom Daube and his team are the absolute best in the business. They are honest, true diamond experts and willing to go out of their way to make sure every customer is 100% satisfied. I would not recommend any other dealer higher than Washington Diamond. If you go elsewhere, you are making a mistake.

Excellent service, competitive prices and wide selection make me a repeat customer. If you don’t see it, Washington Diamond can create it in-house. It’s the only place I shop for fine jewelry.

WD is not like any other jewelery store. We bought our wedding rings from them on 2004, and every time I visit the store, they know me by name and ask about my husband and our new daughter. Since then, I have bought other pieces from them and will have them make a special ring for my Mother on her 50th Bday. We have had others asked about my wedding ring and if it was hand made just for me. When you buy from them, you know you are not getting a ring that another bride has. Their designs are unique and one of a kind.They are very personal but do not force you to buy from them. But rather make sure you are fully informed about the product, whether you purchase from them or not. They don't follow you around in the store, asking you 50 questions. No pressure whatsoever!! I will NEVER shop anywhere else. WD is the place for us!!

I've known the Daube family for 26 years - they are "my" jeweler. Integrity - honesty - straight up consumer educators, and their first priority is to respect and ultimately serve the customer. And I know their inside values first hand, as I also worked for (and was trained by them) in the early 80's.

Washington Diamond has a great team of professionals who give personal attention to the customer. From the time you walk in the door they make you feel right at home. Our salesman Walter Via was so patient with us. Never one time did he put pressure on us to make a purchase. Their selection and quality of diamonds sell themselves. Walter helped us to customize my husband's wedding band to match my wedding set as closely as possible. When we saw the finished product of our entire set of rings we were absolutely floored. The showroom is crisp and clean. Excellent lighting. Very attractive. There are no obstructions in the display cases. All of the jewelry is neatly displayed. Never out of order. And Maggie, she is a gem. She adds a special polish to their customer service. We love her energy.I will definitely make future purchases with them again. As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for.

Washington Diamond has fantastic customer service. They are professional, thorough, above all, honest! I was skeptical about purchasing my wedding ring online, but they made it a very positive experience.

Washington Diamond carries Canadian non-conflict diamonds, offers competitive prices, and has a friendly and informative sales staff. I bought my wife's engagement ring here and have never second-guessed my decision. Having considered much of the competition in my own search, I've gladly shared my recommendation of Washington Diamond with several friends.

Beautiful & unique custom diamond settings and awesome customer service! We've been customers for 16+ years! We moved out of the area but still come back to visit and continue to use Washington Diamond because of all that I said above and most importantly, we trust them.

I picked up Molly's engagement ring yesterday afternoon, and it's gorgeous. She is going to be ecstatic when she sees it. Hell, I'm ecstatic and I'm not even the one who's going to be wearing it. All of the paperwork was in order, the service was great, and I have only good things to say about the whole experience. Thank you for all of your help. I look forward to pointing other folks in Washington Diamond's direction.
