Hello
Firstly I wanted to thank everyone who has kindly helped me and commented on my threads so far. I'm so excited that my pear is paid for!!!! But after spending $18500 usd (nearly $25k Aussie!) I'm beginning to freak out about forking out another $5usd (nearly $7k Aussie) to have Victor set her. I realise this was my intention always, but then I started to think about the duty, customs etc... And I'm looking at $10k Aussie!!!) I am desperate to have Victor set her but I'm also trying to be practical. Recently I saw the thread about the wonderful work of Alistair Kelsey's jewellery. He's based in Sydney and looks to do a fine job. This will cost around $3500aud and then importing customs and duty on a loose diamond is much less also...... So torn........ But it will be half the expense.....
