Re: Really considering this stone. Anyone have any alternat
My conundrum is that my budget is not really governed by finances, but more my distaste for what I believe is an artificially inflated price of an otherwise worthless stone. I could go bigger, which the girlfriend would like, but at the expense of money and mostly my principle.
I like a real value. If someone said this 2ct stone were eye clean at any angle or distance, and it was easily worth the extra money, then I'd be inclined to make the purchase. If it's not a real bargain, then I'd probably start going back to the 1.5ct relm, and look for something closer to 10k pricepoint. Is .5ct worth an extra $5k??? I can't decide.
I guess I want to pay the "a needle in a haystack" price for something.
I will admit that this was pretty nice:
