Bufaventojewels

My parents traveled with this company to Cyprus. It became the most expensive trip ever for them as they were totally fooled by talented salesmen from Bufavento Jewels. They are now left with a debt, and it seems that the travel company is doing business with Bufavento Jewels. Fearless company that lures older tourists to such events.

This company engages in high pressure selling and if you are na茂ve about jewel prices they will take you to the cleaners.
Unfortunately the tour companies such as RSD travel may arrange these tours between stopovers between hotels so it is difficult not to travel on the bus that day.
After the initial introductory talk you are taken into the sales room and immediately pounced upon by their salesmen and saleswomen and make it very hard to leave the room..
The jewellery is very nice and probably good quality and the initial price may seem absurdly high. They will halve it and make it sound reasonable but it is only after you return home and obtain a valuation that you realise that you have been well and truly duped!
Be warned and do not buy unless you know the real value of the jewellery item you may be interested in.

Overpriced and con artist. If I'd known about this company and its reviews before I was taken as part of a tour (to Nicosia through Cyprus Paradise) I would've saved myself some anguish and money. I lost money on some jewellry we bought but thankfully it wasn't as much as what others had paid. We bought silver. There was a marketing person called Mutlu, who at the time appeared to be genuine who said that my daughter (aged 15) could do some catalog work and that they had events in London, Birmingham etc. he gave us his Instagram which turned out to be his personal one and not a company one (xmtlux)- It doesn't exist. Their company website is also very basic and has no price list. He mentioned that his designs had won the Bolin Swedish Award for one of his designs- which again doesn't exist. Avoid at all costs!!

In my experience they sell real stuff, but it is overpriced as hell. If you show any interest the seller will be all over you, he will talk about how his manger has aprroves to go down in price and stuff like that, but it's still expensive compared to what you get. The gems are real, but be careful, because they will sell it like 60% more expensive than its actual value.

DO NOT SHOW ANY INTEREST FOR THE PRODUCTS. If you show the least interest, the diligent seller will be all over you all the time. If you are not very resistent you will be led into a room and more sellers will come to push you. You will probably be able to get a 25-50% discount in a big act where they will rip their hair and call the boss to approve the discount – and you will still pay around 10 times the real value.
In my case the jewel was worth absolutely nothing, didn't get a real gemstone just coloured glass. Stay away from these thieves!!
