I just spend 45 minutes writing this stupid message and then I clicked to insert a happy face and it erased my whole message!!! It does it all the time, so I have to write in the code if I don''t want to lose the message...
Well, here''s what I was trying to say before I lost my message. I''m having a few doubts about my diamond that I put on hold at gog:
http://www.goodoldgold.com/0_84ct_h_vs1__h%26a.htm
I just read the advanced tutorial here at pricescope and became concerned that the table was too small, making the diamond look smaller. Is 56.5% OK?
I guess that I''m worried about the size, since it''s *only* 0.84ct. My girl has really expensive tastes when it comes to diamonds and likes them big and of high quality. She''s said before that a 1ct ring would be "acceptable", but it wasn''t in a serious context. The other day, we were ring shopping with a friend who is getting engaged (perfect occasion for me to see what she likes, without her suspecting...bwahahaha!) and we saw some H&A and she thought that they were so beautiful and cool, and would really like to have one. So I know that she would really like H&A, but so would she like a 1ct ring. Unfortunately, being a poor canadian student, the very top MAX that I can afford is $4500 US for everything. Well, I''m allready over budget by $300 with the 0.84 ct at GOG, with the royal crown setting. That''s the absolute most as I''ll be eating noodles for half the year. So there''s no way that I could get a 1ct + H&A + royal crown setting (it''s kind of expensive, but it''s the only one that I think she''ll like. IMO, the setting makes the ring just as much as the diamond) for under 4800K.
How much cheaper do you think my 0.84 diamond would be if it was SI1 or an eye clean SI2? If I could find the same stone that was SI, and a bit bigger, I would definatively buy it, but I can''t find any.
The funniest thing is that, if it were just up to me, I''d rather take all that money and travel the world for a few months! But, it''s all about making the girl happy, and so I really want to get somehting that she''ll love. The funniest thing is that in 3-4 years, we''ll both be making loads of cash (at least compared to now) but that''s a bit to far off. I know that she would really love it if I proposed sooner that later...
Ugh. I have to stop obsessing about this! I have a lot of other things to do! Thanks for listening.
