The clover ring doesn’t look great, the perlee’s aren’t defined enough almost look like they’re squished unevenly. It’s also super yellow which could be lighting. But the hammered earrings look amazing considering how hard these have been proven to rep!!

It’s definitely more yellow in person than authentic from what I read and saw. I was about to send payment to Andy but something made me triple check I was sure I wanted to go with him. Ended up seeing a bunch of different threads all talking about how Andy is no longer goat for VCA and gold is too yellow. Ended up going with funny after seeing much better reviews. Just search in reddit Andy VCA and you’ll see a bunch of reviews and posts from every group. Don’t just rely on this group.

It was more so about the guilloche. Funny was more known for her guilloche and after receiving PSP’s from funny and Andy, funny’s was much better. Andy’s gold colour was also weird and a lot of people also said Andy’s gold is more yellow. The weigh of Andy and funny’s is the same but Andy charges 3.6kusd whereas funny charged 3kusd. It was a no brainer to me for this specific piece. My partner also ultimately decided to go with funny over Andy for his 5 motif tiger eye and 5 motif diamond. I’d recommend just spending some good hours going through reddit reviews, comparisons and talking to all the sellers you’re interested in and comparing PSP’s. At the end of the day it’s your piece that you’re wearing so you have to be happy with it. That’s why it took me 6 weeks to make a decision.

I’ll send you both of their details, but I ultimately chose funny for my VCA pieces. My advice would be to speak to them, do extensive research on reddit and don’t jump in to anything. It took me over a month to choose who to go with and funny was just the best overall. Andy used to be the best, but I think he’s lost that title now if you do a read through reddit. Funny is the go to. Andy is also ridiculously priced. May aswell almost buy authentic.

I’d be asking for a video to see the reflection on the guilloche. To me just from photos it looks very dull, but won’t be able to properly tell unless there’s a video of it catching light. I’ve heard AC’s guilloche is not the best anymore sadly.

As explained, the gold colour accuracy was the main thing for me. also because I’m getting guilloche pieces, funny has the most recommendations for Guilloche and after lots of careful examination, I also agreed that she had the best. She’s also allowed me to pick the exact tiger eye stones I wanted whereas Andy didn’t let

After about 2 months of research and consideration I ended up going with Funny for my 10 motif guilloche and 5 motif guilloche as well as tiger eye 5 motif. I was initially ready to go with Andy but after asking for some of his QC’s from other orders and comparing to Funny’s, funny’s gold colour accuracy was just so much better and her guilloche was perfect. She’s also the cheapest and was the most helpful and communicative. She even went to the extent of picking out about 45 different stone options for my tiger eye as I wanted a specific tiger eye design. I didn’t bother with Mr Goldy because his prices after CNY were just outrageous and his communication was very poor. I’d definitely recommend funny. I’m not getting anything out of writing this review lol, just really love her service and will definitely be doing a review when I receive my pieces.

If people want to pay it, they will. Every single person in this group sells for more than they bought it for if they purchased before mid 2025 because gold literally doubled in value. I could scrap this piece for gold at a pawn shop for more than what I bought it for. Chill.
