So, I was just told that a 3 CT RB I had purchased last year was not going to be returnable.
(LONG) story here
So, now I am trying to figure out what my options are. So far:
1) Sell and take a HUGE loss. Probably only 50% of what I paid for it.
2) Trade in and upgrade it - problem is that I don''t think I will get any more in a trade in than direct selling. I''ve spoken to a few people and most want to handle it as two different transactions.
3) Take the risk and recut it. Take some loss for a better cut. Certainly better than taking the huge loss but talk about nail-biting! And there''s the risk that something could go terribly wrong.
4) Just keep it. Set it in a beautiful setting and pray I will be happy with it. Realize that it''s just a diamond, don''t stress, and be thankful that I have this "luxury" "problem".
Does anyone have any more ideas as to what I can do? Are there any jewelers that will provide a decent trade-in if I buy a larger stone?
Thanks to all in advance. I''m just beating myself up for being so uneducated. Tough way to learn a lesson.
