We've always had an official jeweler.
The strange thing is that while for decades it was LG Balfour, in the last decade we've had about 4-5 different ones, due to the buyout/consolidation of the greek jewelry business. Herff/Jones is our jeweler because they bought out our previous one, BurrPatersonAuld. And since they've pretty much bought all the others, they're the only game in town. When I joined it was 'Preferred Greek'. There were one or two between them and BPA.
At the APO Store at Nationals, I got into a little conversation on this topic with the HJ rep and Jordan (of the APO Collection, who always runs the APO Store at Nationals).
