Based in the US if that changes shipping advice. Would appreciate any links to reputable sellers.

Great question. This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

I talked to my jeweler about this last month. I have heard good things about Charles & Colvard, but I personally used Etsy. Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.

Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.
