Re: waiting for my order to arrive !!

Hello all...I have finally ordered my 5 year anniversary ring ! the ring is to replaced my plain 3 mm wedding band... my favorite ring is the tiffany platinum 7 stones shared prongs set (90 points diamonds - 3.5 mm).

Re: Opinion on Diamond and on Deal

Hello all, I had not been planning on purchasing a diamond until the fall, but have been keeping up with availability in case something came up. I recently came across a WF ACA and wanted to get some forum confirmation that this is a good deal, I put it on hold yesterday afternoon and have been in ...

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

What I said was: "fracture filled diamonds are substandard quality because it's a treatment that carries a risk of being reversed and/ or this is not a treatment that is/ or will be associated with a premium brand" That's my opinion. For someone who has a "live and let live" phil...

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

Oh, for heaven's sake! I'm talking about what would run through my mind (and possibly others') when someone mentions an A.V. diamond (unless of course the link to the listing is given, in which case it would be disclosed). Is it really that hard to understand? Seriously???? I find it hard to unders...

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

Zephyr, If I am not going to read you comment to my post as offensive. The point of my post was (i admit, maybe not so related to the topic of this post) that in attempt to follow the heavy advertizement of the two brands and the vendor on this forum I ended up with the overpriced stone that i belie...

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

Now I’m a proud owner of the .74 I SI2 AVR that I paid for $3,150. Does it perform on par with real OECs? NO Could I get a bigger stone much cheaper on and probably better performing on ebay? Yes and I did it many times. But the only thing I can do right now is to keep checking GOG site in a hope t...

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

I might be not a veteran of this forum, but I read and post sometimes for the last three years, so I’ll allow myself to tell my story with the GOG. I think I witnessed the birth of AVC and AVR cuts and how AVC became by far the favorite cut on this board. I saw how many of the veterans one by one p...

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

I think GOG made a mistake by making something premium available to people who paid far less. This may have been Jon's intent, but for items like jewelry, sometimes ownership is not meant to be inclusive of every budget. You can't please everyone, but some business decisions offend a number of peop...

I love them on you!! What a great idea to try Cz first. I need to do that Btw I know what you mean about uncomfortable eternity bands I didn't think about that issue until I tried one on that looked great and felt terrible!

Gosh, I just got 2.5ctw studs and I think they're gigantic, 4ctw is a thing of fantasy! If I saw you on the street I'd probably stop dead and gape. Be forewarned :sun:

Who are your favorite vendors for Old European Cut diamonds? I know GOG has their August Vintage cut. Any other vendors? Where else would you look for one?

Re: Good Old Gold Clarity Enhanced diamond

I don't think it cheapens the brand, as a one off. As in, they made a mistake and weren't able to move this piece and decided the solution was to have this one CE. I wouldn't appreciate it and do think it would cheapen the brand if they did it routinely. I'm sure someone will snatch it up for a pen...

I don't think it cheapens the brand at all. If they didn't disclose it, yes, then maybe.
