VuittonGal Cut Rock Total Posts: 364 Last Post: 9/12/2006 Member Since: 6/22/2005	FI bought my diamond today and selected a setting! He told me they said it will be ready NEXT Thursday. How can I wait that long knowing that 1.4 carat E VS1 princess cut is calling my name??!??! HOW!??!??!? Do you think it would be at all possible that they could've set/sized it today and he's going to surprise me? I have a feeling even if that's not the case, it'll be done before next Thursday and he could surprise me this weekend. Is it possible it's ready for my finger now?!?!??

I don't want to burst your bubble, but many times it's not the actually setting/sizing that takes time but getting worked into the schedule of people ahead of you. I also think princess cuts take a little longer to set b/c of the corners and the possibility of potential chipping ----------------------------- A deal is only a deal if you are getting exactly what you want.

I imagine Mrs. S is right about the goldsmith being busy. I don't think it actually takes that long to set and size (a few hours, I would think) if that was all he/she had to do. But there are probably other jobs waiting to be done. Or maybe your boyfriend is trying to throw you off. I hope so. We'll be anxiously awaiting pictures!!!
