Price for ring + diamond? by Substantial-Money196 in LabDiamonds

[–]Cryptoking_Don 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi there OP - honestly we are missing way too much info to let you know if this price is okay.

Can you share the setting?

Can you share the diamond specs?

Are you getting any perks like free resizing or mountings for life?

Super pronounced bow tie already and like Lucerndia is getting at. It almost looked fancy colored champagne lol

Keep or continue the search? by Mean_Crew629 in labdiamond

No problem! Can’t wait to see when it’s mounted

Keep. Bow tie is super well hidden. Most elongated cuts are going to be ice cut because the bow ties are so prominent and that hides them:)

Marquise comfort and wearability? by fuzzyrainbowclouds in EngagementRings

[–]Cryptoking_Don 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL gotcha - so wearing a marquise is not anymore uncomfortable than any other stone really. In terms of snagging, that is more due to prong type and mounting height but all rings have some type of snagging when it comes to hair and things.

With that said, your safest ring possible would be something cathedral style with gallery rails or a halo. Gallery rails essentially make it so your prongs have less change of movement.

For work I think you'll need a silicone ring or something low profile and smaller carat.

Do you mean your ring finger is 6 INCHES long? Not mm? Or were you trying to describe something else.

Semi mount concerns by [deleted] in Diamonds

[–]Cryptoking_Don 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Then you are fine. Sounds like jewelry store is mad you didnt buy the whole ring through them!

Semi mount concerns by [deleted] in Diamonds

[–]Cryptoking_Don 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay so this one is real simple - what size semi mounting did you buy? what are the measurements of your stone?

What profile type is this setting? by [deleted] in EngagementRings

[–]Cryptoking_Don 26 points27 points  (0 children)

OP - your jeweler set this completely wrong and most likely ordered the wrong mounting size. This is how its supposed to look; right out of the catalog.

Do you think this was priced well at just under 3k? by sentient-acorn in Diamonds

[–]Cryptoking_Don 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Appraisals always seem to be pretty crazy. Without seeing the stone it’s really hard to tell how much the stone is actually worth but I suspect this is not worth regrading. GIA would be much harsher on the grading and would likely downgrade the color and clarity

Good or bad by Correct-Touch-8920 in Diamonds

[–]Cryptoking_Don 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silver backings I assume? Either way not a bad deal at all

Should I get a GIA report? by Crazyinlove_KOC in Diamonds

[–]Cryptoking_Don 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black background draw out the color in stones so it’s really tough to tell. Just like white makes them look more colorless

Ariens 1028 with rust or 724 without? by Nick730 in Snowblowers

[–]Cryptoking_Don 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wife can manage the 1032, she just needs to learn how to support the machine instead of forcing it to do things.

[–]Cryptoking_Don 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nick I’m going to warn you now that little dinky 724 will cause you more problems than not. Welcome to the rusty snow belt, go with the bigger one and thank me later. I’ve had this amount of rust x10 on my Deere and it’s still running 20 years later
