More than likely, you diamond is OK buy have them check the culet and you check it also. dimonbob, GG whiteflash.com

slofizz Rough Rock Total Posts: 11 Last Post: 8/6/2003 Member Since: 7/29/2003	THANK YOU all for your advice! My girl just loved it. I proposed to her over a game of scrabble! hahah It was my turn first and i spelled MARRYE to start the game. The was a blank. so she looked at the word and said it out loud "Marry Me?" She was kinda like confused that's when I pulled the ring out and she was so so surprised. She got all teary eyed. haha. The setting is a 14K white gold 3mm with 4 prongs. It looks so clean, classic, and elegant. This diamond is unbelievable. The price was right too. I would of spent almost 4 grand if I went with a store on Jewelers Row in Philly. The culet is not pointed it says "none" on my cert. SO i'm probably fine, but i am going to have it appraised tomorrow when i get the ring sized. Thank you all again God bless Ryan

Heyjud Cut Rock Total Posts: 243 Last Post: 3/30/2004 Member Since: 2/26/2003	Great proposal story.... Here's a neat follow-up idea. Save the scrabble game and glue the "marry me" letters on. Also glue on the letters with the date and time of the proposal. Have the board framed and give it to her for a gift. It'll be something she'll always treasure. Just an idea! Best of luck. heyjud "It Could Be Verse"

When I was first looking for my diamond b4 I found this forum, a jeweler was showing me a princess with a pair of locking tweezers. I about fell off my chair when he goes to show me the stone and it flies outta the tweezers and bounces 20 feet across the store to the other counter and bounced on the glass table about 10 times. Needless to say, I didn't buy the diamond from him. Robert O.

Locking tweezers especially you have to be careful about screwing down because you can damage the stone easily (less so with diamonds, moreso with other gems). To have it so tight that it flies all the way across the store to the other counter... sounds like you were dealing with a real amateur.
