I agree with Gary. You want you stone to look the best...Costco or Sam''s is the place to be. I would choose the paper isle. You will have built in padding when she hugs (tackles) you and tissue for tears.

But I must say I am a tad MIFFED at the board. This poor guy has planned everything down to the last details and you guys have thrown in a specific window of time in relation to the position of the sun.

Now the poor chap has to consult as weather report or astronomer and choreograph all things with the big disco ball that hangs in the sky!! I realize he said he needed her to FALL in love with it at first glance...but I think we should support him by telling him she is going to be so surprised and the tears in her eyes are going to probably block anything that allows her to the science in that cut of that magnificent stone.

No problem DKS, we have an astronomer on the boards!!! Hehehe!!

Relax!.....here''s some advice from a very experienced female jeweler.
First of all - the IMPORTANT thing is that you cared enough to try to buy something nice for your wife, NOT the ring or where it comes from. Trust her and how she feels about you......Take her to a romantic dinner (picnic, whatever) and level with her. Tell her that all you want is for her to have something beautiful and that makes her smile everytime she looks at her left hand. Discuss the oprions with her and decide together what to do!
SHe''s lucky to have you and good luck!

FYI, if she had NO IDEA what you were up to, then MAYBE she was saying she wanted a Tiffany ring just to give you the idea that she would love a new ring - think about it!

Ok...great...I will slack off on beating them up on the exact position of the sun, etc. But I am still watching the thread!

So better be on your best behavior!!

So, it is settled then...you are taking her to Costco? Right?

He he.
