Question : Buying and engagement ring online?!?
Is this a good idea or not? I found the exact ring i wanted in a local jewelery store and i checked online and its almost $1000 less online!!!http://diamond-jewelry-masters.com/jewelry/Diamond_Rings/Three-Stone/classic_three_stone_gr id.cfm?affiliate=goog&gclid=CJeE6MCyupgCFQECGgodVAj_ZAAlso, how does it look? Third one down, white gold 3 stone. Probably going with a 1 or 1.5 total weight.
Answer:
Personally I wouldn't spend this amount of money without seeing the item in person first.Also you maybe able to haggle with the jewlery store by showing them this item could be bought cheaper. Keep in mind you need to be comparing apples to apples. The ring needs to be the same quality or they would just point this out as justification for charging more. Keep in mind the four C's. Cut, Clarity, Carat and Color. Cut is one of the most important to me. I have an ideal cut and even though it's a G in color when you compare it to a E Good cut my diamond outshines it. Also next is Clarity. A much smaller stone with a better clarity rating would cost more than a larger stone with less clarity. The clarity also contributes to the cost and how nice the stone looks over all.Carat is preference . Some girls would love a huge stone and some like a smaller.

Question : Investment Stone For Necklace; Spinel, Ruby, Sapphire- Which to pick?
I am looking to purchase a stone to go in a gold necklace for my girlfriend. I am not looking for the average. I am looking for a stone guaranteed to increase in value. I am not looking at fancy diamonds because i am thinking of getting her a pink diamond as an engagement ring when we get there...I have narrowed it down to3.03cts SI1 Pink Spinel = Price C$ 4242.00 http://rocksdiamonddeals.net/Shop_RocksDiamondDeals.php?view=productPage&product=215&category=341.20 cts SI1 Untreated Blue Sapphire = Price C$ 4320.00(Certificate: COA; Est. Retail Replacement Value of $10,080)http://rocksdiamonddeals.net/Shop_RocksDiamondDeals.php?view=productPage&product=398&categor y=17.95cts SI2 CERTIFIED Untreated Ruby = Price C$ 9870.00 http://rocksdiamonddeals.net/Shop_RocksDiamondDeals.php?view=productPage&product=308&category=21Spin el InformationSpinel is a special gemstone in many ways. For centuries it was mistaken for ruby and gained undeserved fame. Today fine red spinel is more rare than ruby but less valuable.Although commonly thought of as red, spinel can be found in a range of beautiful pastel shades.Of particular interest is a vivid hot pink with a tinge of orange that is mined in Burma that is one of the most spectacular gemstone colors in any gem species. Spinel also comes in beautiful blues, which are sometimes called cobalt spinel, but these are rare.Large stones (2.5cts-3+cts) are very rare and star spinels are very rare.Sapphire InformationSapphire is very rarely found, making it much rarer then the diamond, hence the market price for this stone is on the rise.It's safe to invest in a untreated sapphire as there sure to be value add to this stone.There is a difference in price among sapphires depending on the colour quality, whether its treated or untreated, carat size, shine and brilliance. Though the most popular color is blue and pink the choice of colour is a personal choice and with sapphire you can find them in many colours.Almost all (99%) Sapphire on the market is routinely treated with 'heat' to enhance and stabilize the colour. The typical heat treatment process is a permanent process and it does not normally adversely affect the performance, and durability of the gem, but in recent years demand for natural non-heated non-treated top quality Sapphire has caused these gems to command a somewhat higher premium, depending on the gem. For those who prefer a pristine gemstone that has not been "enhanced", there is an ever-decreasing supply of untreated gems.Untreated gems are rare and likely to become more treasured for the rarity that they represent.Ruby InformationRubies are rare to begin with, and large, flawless ones are even more valuable than the very best diamonds. Since rubies are a Clarity Category 3 gemstone, they invariably carry some inclusions, or other materials caught inside the gemstone as the ruby formed around them. A ruby without any inclusions would be priceless. A ruby with only microscopic inclusions is very rare and valuable.Rubies are not generally very large, so their value increases with their weight. A ruby larger than 3 carats is very rare, and the 27.37 carat stone auctioned by Sotheby's in 1999 is probably the only one of such size discovered to date. The larger the ruby, the more rare it is.There are three types of ruby treatments available in the jewellery market:UntreatedIn the jewelry industry, it is assumed that rubies have been heat treated unless otherwise specified. These untreated stones are rarely encountered as only a handful of rubies in the world are untreated. Large, clear rubies of good color that are untreated command extremely high prices and can only be found in the most expensive jewelry stores. When you see this word in a jewelry description, you can know that you’re seeing something rare (depending on the stone). If you see an “untreated” ruby for sale, it will be extremely valuable and expensive. Untreated rubies are almost always very included (unless they are in museums or with 6 digit price tags). Colour is a ruby's most important feature. Its transparency is only of secondary importance. An untreated ruby is very rare, and an untreated stone with only minimal inclusions is more remarkable yet.Top quality untreated rubies are so rare even the world's top gem dealers must incessantly comb estate sales and auctions to find them. Sizes above 3 carats are particularly rare. Almost all rubies are treated because most have inclusions. Treating the blemishes allows supply to keep up with demand. As a result, untreated rubies are usually museum-quality. Top dealers search for them, but few are available.Conventional Heat Treatment and Fissure Filling or Glass Filling are the other ruby treatments,I am out of room...So hopefully you can help me narrow it down...

Question : Do three-stone diamond rings hold their value?
My soon to be fiance is shopping for my engagement ring. He actually knows the EXACT ring that I fell in love with...thus telling me I have made his job easy now. However, he has gone to many jewelry stores today and they all told him to get me a solitaire as the three stones would not hold their value in the years to come like a solitaire. Is this true? I told my boyfriend that I wasn't worried about how much the ring would be worth in 10 years because I never have any intention on selling it. Can someone knowledgeable of jewelry help me?

Question : What color stockings should be worn with black dressy pants and white shoes?
The occasion is a late afternoon outdoor wedding at a country club. The outfit is a pants suit. The pants are crepe with a flowy chiffon overlay (looks like a long skirt when standing.) The top is white with sheer 3/4 sleeves edged in satin. The top also has very thin satin lines giving the effect of large diamond shapes; and every so often there is a cluster of glitter no bigger than a medium pen point at the vertices. The shoes are a pearl white as is the purse. Jewelry: a diamond tennis bracelet, ring, three-stone curvy pendant, and matching earrings.
Answer:
Definitely DO NOT wear white shoes with black pants! Either go with a black shoe or a metallic shoe (possibly silver to coordinate with the glitter in your top). As for the stockings, either go with a sheer or nude color, or wear none at all.

Question : How much would the resale value be for this ring? Need MONEY.. And no use for the ring anymore = divorce! lol?
How much would the resale value be for this ring? It is in mint condition, but it was a gift so I obviously can't take it back. It is from Helzberg diamonds. He paid $699.99 for it and it has not gone down on price. GO TO THE WEBSITE AND CHECK IT OUT!http://www.helzberg.com/product/jewelry/rings/three-stone/1-2ct+tw+three-diamond+anniversary+rin g+1598024.do?sortby=ourPicksLet me know please!!! Thanks a bunch!!
Answer:
Unfortunately there is such a markup on jewelry, that it is probably worth 2/3 what was paid for it. You may get a better price on line than at a jewelers or pawn shop.Sorry, wish I had better news. It is lovely, and too bad it has lost its sentimental value to you.

Question : my best friend's fiance belittled MY ring...feel bad?
My best friend was single when I got engaged. I never threw it in her face, and aside from telling her excitedly and making her a bridesmaid, nothing more was said.My husband got me a beautiful 1/5 carat diamond, because we couldn't afford much. Her fiance came into JCPenney while I was working in fragrances, which is close to jewelry. He said the ring wasn't there yet, then he asked to see mine. I showed him and he said "Oh, it's WAY better than that."I was a little offended, because my friend is not one to try and make anyone feel bad, but I didn't know HE was like that.I told my husband, and now he wants to play the "whose is bigger" game and get the three stone ring we wanted when we were engaged.I like my ring, but how do I deal with my friend's fiance, since he was so rude?(We spend a LOT of time with them, since they look to us for advice).
Answer:
Just forget about his little insult and move on.There really no point thinking anything of it, it's not worth your time.At least you now know what type of person he seems to be (keep up with the Jones's type!!) and dont lower yourself by playing along with him..he obviously feels he lacks something in his life to want to belittle someone in the first place.Just rise above him.

Question : How to keep a ring clean?
I chose this engagement ringhttp://www.helzberg.com/product/jewelry/rings/three-stone/1-2ct+tw+three-diamond+anniversary+rin g+1636956.do?sortby=ourPicksNow everyday it's so dirty. I never realized how dirty baguettes get and now I regret choosing this style since we have a 1yr old baby and all and it's hard to clean the ring at home and I don't have time to go to the mall and get it steamed. Is it wrong to feel as if I should get a solitaire instead in order to not have so many diamonds to clean? I don't like taking off my rings. What about the sentimental value of this one? Anyone have the same problem??
Answer:
funny thing the only way i know about this is my boyfriend just bought one of these. it call an ultrasonic cleaner. its what they use in the malls for ring cleaning. we got are @ harbor freight for $30. i would look in to it. it would most like save u money in the long run and it cleans everything and anything. i will post the web add for harbor freight and u can see what i am talking about. http://www.harborfreight.com/ultrasonic-cleaner-3305.html
