Hi Skippy123,

There are photos out there of my ring......not good ones though......its a 5ct ACA I SI1. The purchase happened quite unexpetedly. I think hubby wanted me stop the diamond obsessing and get on with life, he shut me up with this one! I have had it for a little over a year now and was lucky enough to purchase it before the last price rise.

I don't understand, he he??

. How can you be obsessed with diamonds and not get on with life!! Diamonds make life that much more interesting!!

I think I need to have a serious word with your hubby!!

With regard to the article, if I read it correctly (I tend to speed read and sometimes I miss things out, but more often I don't, tee hee), large important diamonds are the way to go. Imagine, you buy this GORGEOUS stone for several millions dollars and you get to wear it whilst it continues to appreciate in value, whatever the economic condition. 'Cuse me whilst I go off and dream!!
