Hehe, kids.. what can ya do? Now if they start popping out some illegitimate children, I'd be thrilled!!

Webdiva, the 2ct was a better deal!!! I paid $5k for it and got $100 in ebay bucks back. It's 8.11x8.15mm, K-L, VS1, no fleabites whatsoever because it sat in a safe forever! It was a lady's grandmother's ring, and she didn't want it anymore because she never wore it. That one was a nailbiter for sure. I had negotiated the price, but the lady's husband accepted someone else's offer while I was running errands. I was crushed, especially since I coached her on how to take the pictures. (her original pics were awful) Two days later, she said the buyer couldn't pay for 3 weeks and asked if I still wanted it!! She relisted, I paid, and it was mine. This baby was meant to be mine!! I love her. ::)

Oh my :cheeky: !

You were not kidding about needing a scale due to purchasing a lot from ebay. I think you are my hero! Beautiful hands with tiny fingers and so many stunning sparklies that I am gobsmacked.

I don't think Miss FK is interested in finding foster homes for her kiddos!! She's a helicopter mama!

Sounds good to me! :) We need to do it someplace central for everyone! Maybe downtown? Some place with FABULOUS lighting! ;-)

You have a great collection!! The fact so many are great steals is a big plus...

Last "take your kids to work day" people joked about bringing their pets if they didn't have kids... I considered bringing my one dog but decided against it. I'm glad I did because the day of there were a handful of dogs, some kids, and absolutely nothing getting done. It was a carnival in there!

You choice of kids was much smarter

Beautiful kids, beautiful collection!

I think you should provide the best protection for them, though, and lessen the floozie influence by evicting some of said floozies. ;-) :Up_to_something: :cheeky:
