I was just thinking about this....it might not make sense.
What is the feasibility of someone giving an expert a budget, a basic description of the stone, what is most important to them, and having said expert find said stone for a fee. If that person is not a diamond retailer, and I offered some reasonable compensation per stone, would anyone take me up on it?
For example. $15000 budget. No smaller than 1.85 c, princess cut, looking for best sparkle and brilliance possible. Prefer no less than G color, SI1, should be eye clean. Everyone/everytime I ask, I get a large amount of VERY helpful (I do appreciate it) advice about this percentage, that ratio, angle, etc, and all sorts of stuff that I am sure is interesting and makes a huge difference, but I simply do not have time or energy to look at a thousand reports for each stone and do calculations.
If I go to a b&M, I always feel like they are "selling" me. I guess what I want is a personal shopper. Anybody want the job?
PS: I recognize that this might be really dumb....if you think it is a remarkeably stupid idea, Ummm...I was joking...yeah...that''s it.
