I have had mine for over two years now. I have heard good things about Blue Nile, but I personally used Amazon. This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.
Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.
Honestly, it depends on a few things. Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.

Good thinking asking this before buying. I went with Charles & Colvard on Etsy and saved a lot. Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.
Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.
Short answer:
My Setup
I wear mine every day, including to the gym and to sleep. After a year and a half it still looks brand new.
What to Watch Out For
- Buy from a reputable seller, not a random listing
- Ask about the color grade before you order
- Get a certificate of authenticity
My only regret is not sizing up slightly. It fits snug now that winter is coming.
