Hi guys. I bought a pair of bangles in Prince Jewellery, Panagal park, Chennai in 2005 and within a year it turned dark and ugly. My wife it took it for an exchange with them last month. Alas.. they said that they wont take back that stuff but they want another Rs.3000 for replacing it. This is almost penalising, or simply calling, "pukka cheating". Is there any guarentee that the second replace that they gave me will last for more than a year?
So every piece of gold we buy there are not worth the heavy price we pay?? Even our cooking vessels which we buy for Rs.50 lasts for 5 years but the jewel which we buy for lakhs of rupees wont last for even a year?
What should I do? I mailed them but since I didnt get any proper response from them, I'm planning to take this to the court and sue them for forgery. Any advice?

Sorry I don't have any advice, but I got some bangles from Prince about 8 years ago and they are still good. I just wanted to say that a couple of years ago, we got totally cheated by Lalitha Jewelry in Chennai. Bought an emerald (green stone) necklace set and the stones were set in gold. The green from the stones actually leaked onto my clothing and skin. And the gold turned to brass within a few weeks.
These days it's hard to trust anyone.
Sorry this happened to you and sorry I have no idea what advice to give. I just thought you might feel better knowing that it happens to others at other stores as well.
Good luck.
