Well after many months of feeling like my fiance was taken for a ride I am finally at peace with it. See, he is not Internet savvy, at all LOL. So, when I got my beautiful ring I wanted to know about it. I found this website, and I got to learn about my ring. It wasn''t a great buy, compared to what he could have gotten from whiteflash or other websites.
He paid $5400 for a 1.27 princess with .45 baguettes on the side of the stone (one on each side) set in Platinum. My princess is H, SI1, more table than depth. On whiteflash, I can get .87 MM bigger, a G color, and more depth than table for $100 more.
I became quite upset, thinking his hard earned money was wasted. In fact, I became obsessed with it to the point I don''t enjoy the ring. I am one to always get the bang for my buck and I wish I was invlolved with the process for his sake. He tried to surprise me and in the end felt bad that he didn''t "know" about diamonds.
There is nothing we can do about this now, the purchase was made and non-refundable. Even if I upgrade we would pay too much compared to the Internet. No Internet company would upgrade me for the price he paid for the diamond ($4200), we could be so lucky! So was the ring a waste of money? No, not at all. I still have a beautiful ring that will last me for life. I still have a fiance that I will marry in November. I may not have the best quality for the money spent, but in all honesty I would say 95% of buyers have no idea what to do when purchasing a diamond, and mine is damn good compared to others. If comparing at all.
Thank you to all of you that have helped me know my diamond. I am sorry I can not thank those that made me feel like my diamond isn''t good enough, but I can thank those who made me feel bad also made me think deeper...I see the real point here. The love that was behind the purchase is far more richer than the knowledge.
