After months upon months of lurking on this site trying to learn from the wealth of information posted here (i love you all!), I finally took the plunge after seeing what I think is **the one** (and hopefully you will agree!). My boyfriend let me choose my own ring, overall budget (diamond+setting) $6000 (excluding the lovely import charges as I''m from Ireland, they must be added on later, yuck!).
For the diamond I had in mind excellent cut, H, SI1, 0.9-1ct, and hopefully flurescence (which I really like). I saw a few that caught my fancy on the Good Old Gold website and after a couple of conversations with Jon (via the instant chat function on the site, really brilliant for people like me living abroad!) decided on this one: http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/3958
Jon was absolutely brilliant and showed me a couple of videos that gave me a good idea of the diamond''s performance. I never thought I would make up my mind so quickly but the diamond just was everything I was looking for so my boyfriend transferred the funds the very next day! Scary but good! And Christen was great for taking us through the reservation process and making the whole transaction go like clockwork.
So a huge thanks to all at Good Old Gold!
I decided on a Mark Morrell petite sunburst setting, so the diamond is currently residing chez Mark awaiting setting. It should be ready end of February and I''m so excited to finally get to see it!
Thank you pricescopers for all your wonderful help and advice and I''ll be sure to post pictures as soon as it arrives!!
