Somebody's Gotta Buy This Piece!

[lovedogs]

How is the returns process with Pawn America? The website says customer pays return shipping - do they provide a label and if so how much is it usually?

super curious what you're considering from them! I have something in my cart that I *shouldnt* buy, but I want it!! hah

 

[winnietucker]

@Mreader are you still looking for a yellow OEC?

 

[winnietucker]

This one is available for pretty cheap. Do you all think that the prongs would be able to be positioned in a more symmetrical way with a more symmetrical stone?

 

[Ibrakeforpossums]

What is that stone?

 

[winnietucker]

What is that stone?

Quartz. I’ve been wanting a split shank setting and this one is 14k for under $200 and can be resized to fit me.

@Mreader are you still looking for a yellow OEC?

Tempted! But I’m out of the country rn. Will put it on watch.

I don't want to share because I might buy it... Even though I shouldn't either. I'm surprised it's still available because it seems like a good price... Though I'd have to see the stone in person.

I am sad that recycledgems is still not posting diamonds on eBay anymore!

Good value here. I’d estimate the cttw at about 2.2 based on the measurements provided. Nice looking setting.

I *think* they just rebranded to North Woods Diamonds.

I’m apparently still following them but they haven’t posted any loose old cuts in months when it used to be weekly new ones!

They have posted some new, but they've sold quickly. I snagged the two I had been watching forever as soon as they came back online.

It was this one. It sold, so I'm off the hook. I wanted it as the center for a flower cluster ring, but realistically I don't know when I would feel like I can do a new project after my two stones and settings this year. Someone tell me why it's not nice so I won't regret missing out.

Oh no, it was me! I had this and a bracelet in my cart but the bracelet sold sometime yesterday and I got nervous this would sell out so I pulled the trigger. My apologies! I will post pictures when it arrives.

It's definitely a nice stone, but it's always hit or miss in terms of cut quality when pics are so lacking. Fingers crossed that you come across something else! What size/color/cut are you looking for, and whats your budget?

They haven’t shown up in my searches but I haven’t been searching every day

Everyone move along, nothing to see here… I was hiding that bracelet in the kids socks area, no one was supposed to be able to find it

No worries at all! I love that it was bought by someone from here! I can't wait to see it! Are you planning to wear it as is, or do you have a project in mind? And hey, maybe if you return it I'll scoop it up like I did with my Maxine after lala646 showed it off here and returned it.

That's sweet, but I'm not really on a hunt. I just like looking at what's out there, I tell myself that I'm learning a lot about what to look for and pricing. Then I get tempted. But realistically I can't be buying diamonds every few months.

But realistically I can't be buying diamonds every few months.

This is why I assign myself a specific project for a given period of time. Helps me resist temptation.

If anyone happens across an old cut that is a reasonable price, say under $2000, can you tag me? Or email on LT? I am looking for a stone for a moi et toi to go with an oval blue sapphire that's about 8 x 6. I would like the diamond to be smaller, probably no larger than 7mm. The cheaper the better! I know that .5 is going to be too small for the size of the sapphire for the ratio I want.

I have been looking at men's rings on eBay and the like and haven't found much. Not picky on details, just wanted a nicely cut stone that's eye clean. I think something around 6 to 6.5 mm would probably be the best size to go with the sapphire.

Could something like one of these work?

I was going to see how the light play was before deciding if it works better as a ring (I have 3 boys all born in April and would like a cool mother's ring) or if it is better suited for a pendant. Definitely will post pics and let you know if I return it . Maxine is such a pretty stone, I'm glad you got her!

I selfishly want to hide this ring from others bc I love it--but I have no business buying anything right now haha. I love this cut (at least from pics). Right on your budget, but the plat setting could be reused and looks nice
