And that's if you can even find a decent stone. Everyone tries to sell you absolute junk. GIA certified triple excellent is meaningless cuz the tolerances for an excellent rating are massive. It's all a scam

meatpimp posted:"Quality" diamonds are some made up bullshit parameters from the 1800s. The quality of the stone is not important, it's all about the cut. Certain things like colour and clarity will affect the price because a clearer stone or a more colourless stone is rarer but you can physically measure the light return of a diamond and that is 100% down to how its cut, which oddly enough doesn't affect the price of the stone all that much You could spend the same amount of money on two identical (on paper) diamonds and one will look great and the other will look like poo poo. Guess which one they'll try to sell you

I couldn't care less really. If the missus had said to me I want you to propose to me with a ring pop I would have been sure thing babe. But this is what she wants and she deserves to have whatever it is she wants
