MJM Nightmare

About 4 1/2 months ago, a ring was ordered. Not just any ring, the ring Owen wanted to propose to me with. Today, I look down at my my ring-less hands utterly perplexed to how this whole experience could have gone so wrong.

I'll spare you all the gruesomely boring details, and just stick to the key points of where MJM screwed my wonderful fiance over!

Part 1: Ordering the Ring

*Owen places the order at MJM in January.
*Owen & Stef go to NYC for the weekend, come back to no ring. A week goes by, the ring was supposedly shipped, but was sent back to Ca when it "arrived" in MD.
----No calls were made, and Owen was home all day & no delivery trucks ever came by.

*Owen calls to complain & MJM reimburses his money, gives him a money credit on their site & promises to re-ship the ring.

Part 2: Something Fishy is Going On

*2 weeks go by, no ring.
*Owen calls to complain, he speaks with someone new. Someone who makes him new promises. Says it will take another 2 weeks for Owen to get the ring.
*2 weeks go by, no ring.
-----At this point there is a lot of conversation between MJM & Owen. MJM says that production is taking longer than expected. Owen is fed up, but wants to get this ring after the energy put into the whole process.

Part 3: Deception

*It March/April and Owen calls infuriated from being strung along after all this time.
*A woman at MJM proceeds to tell Owen that they had to let some people go, her assistants, because they had been misleading customers, aka F-ing with them & feeding them fraudulent information.
*The woman promises Owen they will make things right, and asks Owen to give them another shot.
*A new ring is promised to be made.
*2 weeks go by, no ring.

Part 4: Last Straw

*April: Owen calls everyday, checking on the status of the ring.
*When the ring is supposedly completed, Owen is given a working tracking number. The package has been picked up, in transit for delivery.
----we are sooo excited! FINALLY, we get our ring...so we thought.
*Tracking said package had been delivered. Yet, no package to be found. NOTHING and NO ONE had come by the house.
*Owen calls MJM confused with what has happened. MJM tells Owen and man by the name of Steven Thomas, signed for the package @ our desired location.
*No one by the name of Steven Thomas lives or works @ that address.
-------SOMEONE is F-ing with us.

Part 5: "Hold Me Back O"

*I call MJM to give a piece of my mind.
*Sharron, the woman Owen had been working with, says that the last she spoke with Owen was 3 weeks ago. No package was EVER attempted to be shipped to us. No ring was EVER created for us.
------ Here a big old F you to MJM!!!

Shame on us for falling for their lies every time. We were blinded by the beautiful rings, and were getting stomped on in the process. They truly spoiled a beautiful event.

Owen and I never wanted to make a big deal of the ring, its a shame it came to this. BUT what is fun now, is that we can go look together!!

Lesson Officially Learned!
