That's not necessarily true- when I went in with nwlinkvxd to talk to a representative at Helzberg Diamonds, we really felt like the people were extremely helpful and we got my ring for at least 800 dollars less than usual because of a sale at the time. The reps were friendly and told us to take our time. They are also a big chain store. I've been in one of our local jewelry stores, and I didn't find them to be as attentive or helpful.
I think the best advice is to go to many places and shop around. If the place you find to be the nicest or the most helpful or the cheapest is a chain, then you should still go with them. Then again, if they are local, go with them just the same.
