I wonder if it'll ever get cut? And what shape?

 

[Matata]

If it were mine, I'd put it in a velvet lined box and take it out to pet and purr to and even give it its own place setting at the dining table so I could have romantic candlelight dinners with it. But I would never never cut it.

 

[redwood66]

Its beautiful just as it is!

 

[kenny]

Wow, it's hard to believe it's real.

Image what the first person to see it at the mine felt!

 

[VRBeauty]

I agree, it's absolutely stunning as is. It seems like any way you cut it, the result will be "been there, done that" in comparison. Bigger, of course, but still been there done that.

Kenny
You should buy it and then ask Yoram to cut you a GIANT Octavia for your thumb ...

DF, I know what you're up you.
You're trying to make me blind, so I can't vote for Hillary in Nov.

No need to vote in Ca. since she will be the winner by a mile.

Okie Dokie, so then I WILL buy that diamond.



Hey Karl, judging by the shape of the 1111ct rough how many carats will my Octavia be?
Do you think we could keep it above that magical milestone we all shoot for here at PS ... 500 carats?
Or would is shrink to a measly 400 carats.

One last thing DF, can you lend me the money?
You Republicans are all richer than sultans!
We liberals are all on food stamps.

Aw Man!

DF, it's only 70,000,000.00.

You Righties make that in a week!

 

[Madam Bijoux]

I can see the makings of a sensational pear.

 

[lioness]

I wouldn't want to see it cut. Can you imagine how many carats would be lost as diamond dust???

Oh, they'll saw it up to get several polished diamonds out of it of various shapes and sizes.
They'll analyze it for a long time to minimize the waste.

..Should I put in an order for a 10ct Octavia?...

 

[gregchang35]

I need it for my tiara... so leave it as it is... no need for extra time spent on decision making.

 

[jordyonbass]

You're buying that diamond Kenny?

[texaskj]

It didn't sell!?!?!

I expected DF and kenny to get together and blow all the other bids out of the water.

 

[kenny]

I'm poor.

Probably something along the lines of "Great, I risk my life digging up this rock for $10 a day, meanwhile the boss of the company is going to walk away with $$$$$$$$ in profit for sitting at his desk."
