When I was cleaning out my apartment, I found a diamond bracelet in a drawer. It has a price tag on it that says it cost 5. I’m not sure how to sell it without getting ripped off. How much do you think I can get for it, based on what it cost new, and what would be the best way to sell it? Ebay, local jewelers? Thanks.

How can you tell a good cut of a princess cut diamond? It doesn't say "Very good" or such on the certificate.?
Monday, March 1st, 2010How can you tell a good cut of a princess cut diamond? It doesn’t say "Very good" or such on the certificate. Is there something else that you should be looking at in terms of measurement like depth, etc? I know on sites like BlueNile it will tell you what they are, but not at the actual jewelers. How do you tell if it’s actually a good cut?
How realistic looking are Diamond Nexus Lab stones?
Thursday, February 25th, 2010I’m considering buying a Diamond Nexus Lab ring. How realistic looking are these stones? The photos on the site are very attractive but does anyone own one? Do you know anyone who owns one? Do they look fake to the average eye? Can most jewelers tell they’re not real?
I’m more concerned that the girls at the office will be able to tell.
Does anyone have experience with this company?
Does anyone know someone who has purchased any sort of synthetic diamond?

Would it be risky to leave my diamond ring with a jeweler who noticed the setting/prongs are weak?
Tuesday, February 9th, 2010The ring is 20 years old so I am assuming he could be correct. He noticed it when I brought some watches in to be fixed. I just have this fear of some dishonest person putting a cubic zerconia in its place or something like that. Silly thought?
Has anyone ever heard of putting a white gold prong diamond setting on a platinum ring?
Friday, February 5th, 2010I am upgrading my platinum engagement ring. I am going to use my current diamond and have it put into a new setting. The new ring is also platinum. The jeweler suggested that the diamond be set in a white gold prong setting vs. a platinum prong setting because the diamond will be elevated a bit off of the rest of the ring. She felt the white gold would be more durable (to bangs and bumps that occurs in day to day wear.) Everything I have read on the net suggests the opposite…that platinum is more durable for a prong setting. Which prong setting is better, platinum or white gold?
Is there any jeweler that doesn’t make you come in every 6 months in order to keep diamond warranty?
Monday, February 1st, 2010The place where my husband bought my wedding ring has given us nothing but trouble. There were cracks in my diamonds, but they were trying to refuse fixing it because I was only a month or so overdo for my cleaning and inspection. I live very far away from this jeweler and it’s hard to get in every six months to have it done. For future jewelry purchases I’d like to find a place that sticks by their diamonds, no mattter what. Is there such a place?

How are diamonds valued? How can you tell how many carats in a diamond by looking at it?
Wednesday, January 20th, 2010What is it do you look for, to value a diamond? What makes a diamond flawless?
How do you learn to do it?
When a jeweler values a diamond, is it accurate? Is seems such a flawed way of valuing something so expensive.
I want to reset a diamond into a necklace, but I’m concerned that the jeweler will swap it 4 a cheaper diamond

How do jewelers make diamonds appear pink ?
Thursday, December 24th, 2009My wife has real diamond earrings that look pink .
How can I find out if what appears to be a diamond really is a diamond?
Sunday, December 20th, 2009Besides the cutting glass what other ways are there of finding out if indeed it is a diamond before having to ask a jeweler.
I found what appears to be a diamond but cannot determine if it is one because it has an interesting cut. Is there a tes besides cutting glass that can determine thetruth while avoiding jeweley shops?
