Where do you usually buy it? 
I want some new studs but I don't want to pay for diamonds or even moisannite...just looking for something shiny but affordable with gold settings since I am allergic (I turn green!) to cheaper metals.
I looked a little on Ebay and Amazon but there is too much to sort through!

I was just going to suggest moissonite, I am looking into it for myself!
Some brands that are good are Carolee and Erwin Pearl.

I usually just go to amazon and filter by ratings... five star, lots of ratings!

@looch: I saw a nice moissanite pair...2 ct weight but $675! I think CZ will be ok for me since I want bigger stones!

@autumnlove: most department stores have them. I got a bracelette from JCPenney that was 24k white gold but had stimulated diamonds in it instead of real, and it was $150 (and I used their 15% for more discount). It looks real (not that I'd lie if asked) but I def won't be devastated if I lost it or got bored of it because it's not real

Moissanite is expensive! But i have a pair of 1 ct earrings I bought from Kohls 5 years ago for $80!!!! So keep an eye out for sales! They are Charles & Chovard or whatever, too, so they're nice.
QVC Diamonique is nice, too! I have a few pieces

Etsy? These aren't gold but it's what I'm thinking of getting! I'm debating between 3mm and 4mm -

I received a Stella and Dot necklace as a gift, and it wasn't until a stranger asked where I got it from that I realized people thought it was the real deal! It's not super cheap, but it doesn't break the bank either.

One more: simply whispers is all hypoallergenic! I can only wear high carat gold generally but their stuff doesn't bother me at all. And it's cheap as chips!
