Hi,
I've read through quite a bit of information on this site and dt. I've noticed that most of the conversation is geared towards loose diamonds and e-rings. I'd guess a bracelet with the quality of stone(s) most discussed here would be prohibitively priced for most of us.
Still, I'm in the market for a diamond bracelet for my wife and it's a confusing marketplace out there. I have my eye on these things on ebay for instance:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dllViewItem&category=12598&item=985229092&rd=1
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dllViewItem&category=10976&item=985230004&rd=1
and would appreciate your thoughts on the value/seller/etc or any advice you may have on buying diamond bracelets in general.
I live near NYC and have occassionally bought at Christie's auctions on the general principle that I'm paying good deal less than retail and market forces will not allow me to overpay (or underpay) for an item. Does that sound about right?
thanks in advance,
jeff
