At the Annual Pricescope Get Together in Vegas last weekend I won a very generous $500 gift certificate donated by Good Old Gold.
I am not going to be able to add any funds to the pot right now. But I haven't used my 10K prize from Andrey of $100.
My thanks to both PS and GOG!
So that brings the total up to $600.
So what should I plan to do with it (I need some fun day dreaming right now to cheer me)??
Major pieces I own:
Asscher (square emerald cut) engagement ring with plain shank halo setting by Steven Kirsch ( current halo and gallery are by Steven) and Ocean Pearlman (shank is by Ocean) : [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-steven-kirsch-halo-re-set-is-here.158813/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-steven-kirsch-halo-re-set-is-here.158813/[/URL]
Matching pave 1/2 eternity wedding band by Scott Kay through Pearlmans.
Marguerite Pendant by BGD: http://www.briangavindiamonds.com/home/ring-details/?product_id=5458
DBY necklace with old cuts [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-new-odds-and-ends-necklace-by-bgd.158058/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-new-odds-and-ends-necklace-by-bgd.158058/[/URL]
Diamond Clover Earrings by Kraiko through Pearlmans: [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/kraiko-18k-and-diamond-earrings-from-pearlmans.135223/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/kraiko-18k-and-diamond-earrings-from-pearlmans.135223/[/URL]
And my Aurora Band which I am planning on getting sized for my right hand before the end of the year: [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-bgd-aurora-1-2-eternity-is-ready-and-on-the-way.154113/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-bgd-aurora-1-2-eternity-is-ready-and-on-the-way.154113/[/URL]
So... what should I get?
I don't have studs, but I want upgradable studs if I do get some and I would want at least 1.0 ctw (eventually 2.0 to 2.5 ctw). Which means saving up, especially with diamond prices right now. Since the giftcard is to GOG I would likely want August Vintage Rounds in J/K/L.
I could get jackets, if they have them and also get some lovely BRIGHT red spinels I have set into studs and then I'd have a lovely pair of alternate earrings... and the jackets would work with my studs eventually (I'd get them to fit 1/2 carat each stones).
Pear Diamond for a solitaire pendant. But I already have two pendants, and although I REALLY want pear pendant, I think my neck bling is probably good for now.
I can't wear hoops, my ears aren't pierced right.
So... suggestions? What would get from GOG? I am happy to save up for whatever it is... but I would like to know what I would be saving toward!
(P.S. I love all colors from D-Z of diamonds. And my clarity requirements are eye-clean only. )
