I married my wife with a Costco ring. It is really nice looking and is still in perfect shape 7 years later, crystal clear diamonds. It was also 1/2 the price of a jewelry store ring.

It was also 1/2 the price of a jewelry store ring. You probably bought a ring with a lower clarity rating. That's actually a good thing in my opinion - clarity isn't actually a big deal and if you're going to compromise on one aspect of a ring it is absolutely the clarity. The inclusions that would lower a clarity rating are normally not something you could see with the naked eye unless you get pretty low in the ratings. Costco really likes selling lower clarity diamonds because of this fact, it brings their pricing down and it's not something that would affect the everyday look of the stones at the ratings that they tend to go for (VS2ish)

So was there any tread left on the tires or was it pretty much like throwing a hotdog down a warehouse aisle?

It wasn't advertised as such, I just think it is really nice looking. It was a platinum ring with 4 medium sized diamonds in a square set with a whole bunch of tiny diamonds on the sides. The important thing is that my wife really likes it and gets compliments on her wedding ring to this day.

The only thing I really buy at Costco is Bold Rock Cider. It's only $30 for 24, while usually a 12 pack costs $18. It's nice.

if you are buying a half million dollar diamond, doesn't getting the 20% off costco discount version kind of defeat the purpose? you are supposed to be showing off your wealth, spending less just makes you look like a chump

This is basically right in the middle of Costco's wheelhouse. They sell you a 5* vacation at 4* prices, they sell you a premium car at 10% below MSRP, they sell you prime but price it like choice, they sell you Blue Label at $180 a bottle. Kirkland Napa County should be like a $25 bottle, but it's $13.99 etc. etc. etc. PBUC

They should but spending money (and thus putting it back in to the market) should be a sign of wealth too and it isn't so  A rich person is always worse for your economy than the same wealth but in x amount of middle class people. Costco is savings for all, thus good

Doesn't change the fact that 10 people with the same wealth as your brother in law is still better for the economic engine but I don't exactly want people busting down my door because I have more either, but facts be facts yo.
