And...
ZCOVA's website is up and running again!

I really like the new colour tone. Subtle yet elegant.
Of course, you got to love their 360 degree technology:

Understandbly, this is provided that the supplier provides these videos. Notice the 360 degree icon at the bottom right of each diamond? Btw, the diamonds shown are not really the ones that ZCOVA will really recommend you due to the poor cut quality and obvious inclusions. I am including them JUST for reference to the 360 degree icon.

I really like their
Engagement Ring page. Excited to see
ZCOVA Designs category. Of course, you can still customize your rings with your own vision too.

And I like how
BIG the pictures are.

Overall, a welcoming approach to their new website. I like the refreshing clean and sleek new look. This step takes the company even further to compete against the international market, especially similar concept ones like
James Allen and
BlueNile. In fact, as far as Malaysia is concerned, I think no one does it better considering the usability and the information provided on the website. Their virtual inventory supplier should also be one of the biggest in Malaysia. Although I do not have a solid statistics, but ZCOVA has a very high chance to be able to buy any diamonds from suppliers worldwide, PROVIDED that the particular diamond is not EXCLUSIVE to a particular vendor, such as
TRUE HEARTS for James Allen and
ASTOR for BlueNile. I won't expect seeing ZCOVA to lock down diamonds exclusively to them anytime soon, but I think without locking them down gives them the flexibility to offer the best possible price for the customers. And talking about price, they are very aggressive lately and having a price match guarantee that really works.
In case you are wondering what is virtual inventory, it is actually a global network where all the suppliers list the diamonds for sale. These diamonds won't reach the usual consumers, but will be listed for sales by different jewelers around the world. The jewelers won't stock any inventory and all the diamonds will be with the suppliers' side. Hence, these jewelers can usually sell diamonds at at cheaper price than a brick-and-mortar that stocks inventory. ZCOVA does have their own showroom in Kota Damansara area and they own that place, not renting it, so it is highly unlikely for them to just shut the whole company down and go bye-bye.
Anyway, I will suggest those that are interested to make an appointment with them and see what they are capable of.
Telling them that "Yang Kin" introduce you might help you get an additional RM 50 off, and at the same time I may earn some commission.
Time to get some sleep.
