A link to an abbreviations page?

[TheAffairOfTheNecklace]

Being new to this I have no clue what an EC or a DSS is and little hope of figuring it out with so little knowledge of diamond vocab- can you help a girl out? Is there a list?

I don't believe there is a list (if there is, I bow to whoever created it). It's one of those things you just learn as you go along. I joke with one of my PS (Pricescope) friends that it's like we're speaking another language if you ever read our texts. The great thing about PSers is that we are all happy to answer questions - so if we use an abbreviation that you don't know, just ask.

EC - is emerald cut
DSS - is diamond shrinkage syndrome (when your stone inexplicably shrinks in the days following putting it on your finger)
