Has anyone gotten to the point where they are so frustrated with talking to people that are suppose to know stuff about diamonds that they just want to "buy" anything to end the torture?
I have been lurking around trying to learn as much as I can about diamonds, specificially emeralds and asschers. Being in Canada, asschers are extremely rare and only the whole saler knew what it was. Not even out sister store of Zales knew what is was. Then I go into a store and I''m told that an emerald has 14 facets ..... really ! ONLY in Canada - My Lord.
Anyhow, I got a price on an asscher today. 1.05 c, F, VVS2 for $9700. Forget getting a sarin, crown, table, etc. It just is not availible. I feel like I know too much and I can''t seem to get comfortable with paying what I know is highway robbery for a diamond. I feel as though I am never going to get engaged because ring shopping here is/and has been a complete disappointment.
Anyone else feel this way and how do you get past it ?
