1.95 carats for under $650

[Gypsy]

It takes a lot of surprise me on ebay these days. But this one managed it.

You get what you pay for???

It looks like a giant carbon spot! Or maybe it''s the exceedingly rare Very Strong GRAY Fluorescence!

 

[rierie26]

Well...it''s...I don''t even know...

 

[HopeDream]

Looks like the Superman special !

Clark Kent buys this for a steal on ebay and then presses it to D IF quaility with his bare hands before presenting it to Lois Lane.

best.deal.ever.

Rainwood, you have a generous soul. At best I would have given it is 'charcoal' flourescence.

I can honestly say it's "stunning"... I'm stunned.

Kitcha... see, you are stunned too. The diamond is therefore stunning.

HopeDream... yeah, a comic book fantasy is about what that things chances are of growing up to be a D IF one day. Maybe even less chance than that.

 

[yssie]

Well, would ya look at that! Stunning alright.



I actually like the setting style... well hey, they have a return policy, right?

That vendors who sell this junk get powerseller status...is a real eyeopener - and a warning not to just trust ratings!

 

[Arcadian]

ebay never ceases to amaze and provide entertainment. in colored stones, we found someone on ebay selling polished moose turds.

[Porridge]

But...but...what is it???

 

[Lorelei]

Do I also see a substantial crack on that " stone" at 5 o'clock???


probably.

[chiquitapet]

Hmm.....

 

[April20]

Who sets that piece of muddy gravel and then thinks, "Hey, this looks great. This will make some girl really happy?"???

I was going to say at least no one has bid on it, but then realized they have it set up to either pay $650 or "make an offer". They''d have to pay ME to take that sucker home.

 

[CasaBlanca]

Shocked you veterans don''t recognize FINE jewelry when you see it.

 

[rhbgirl24]

Wow... what the heck is that?!?!?! lol

 

[gemgirl]

Have you ever wondered why someone would waste the listing fees to list something like that?

 

[jet2ks]

Put it back in the ground. I don't think Mother Nature has finished the coal to diamond conversion yet.

The crazy part is that someone is going to buy that and think they got a great deal. Maybe they need a new glass cutter or industrial drill bit.

LOL - you've just answered my eternal dilemma of what to say when I see a yucky engagement ring.


From now on I will be able to honestly say its stunning (while thinking I'm stunned at how horrible it is)

2 birds 1 stone

ETA: And for this ring I can use "amazing" cos I'll be amazed that somebody actually bought such a ring

Although it might be worth an offer of $50 purely for the gold

 

[Luckyeshe]

 

[Callisto]

Hmmmm well idk about being an engaement ring. But I think it''s an interesting stone...

 

[lulu]

You guys are so picky. I think I see arrows.

 

[Liane]

I guess it''s my turn to be the one person who, perversely, kinda likes it.

Not as a diamond, to be sure. But it''s not a bad polished-up bit of asphalt.

I''m with you. Not as an engagement ring (obviously), but... it''s kind of interesting.

 

[MissMina]

Actually I kind of like the setting.
Maybe I''ll offer $50

Because some poor sap will see only that it''s a diamond and it''s big and cheap and buy it!! I''m always amazed by the things some people will buy. There really is a buyer out there for anything...

 

[Dancing Fire]

you''re paying for the gold ring....the diamond is FREE!!

 

[jewelz617]

Erm.... hmmmm...

Yeah.

It''s actually kind of pretty, but not to be touted as a "diamond ring." Something on the artsy/funky side that''s not $650? Sure, that''d be ok. But not this thing.

Brassy 10k gold and rather uneven - you can do a lot better!

 

[VRBeauty]

I like the setting and the stone is interesting -- not $650 worth of interesting, however!
