Make sure there are no black spots in them, will need to get a jeweller eye peice thingy to check). This drops the value as they are not perfect and they will not sparkle properly.
Most people are ignorant of black spots and almost all the cheap diamonds will have them, remember when it comes to diamonds you won't great deal , you will just get a cheap and flawed diamond.Comment

Do not buy diamonds as an investment.
They're not rare. They're grossly overpriced!
Don't kid yourself into thinking that the cartels are doing us a service by cleaning up the market by eliminating "blood diamonds". They're only eliminating the competition.
There, I feel better now.Comment

They are all I need to please me,

Diamonds are forever,
Hold one up and then caress it,
Touch it, stroke it and undress it,
I can see every part,
Nothing hides in the heart to hurt me.
I don't need love,
For what good will love do me?
Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love's gone,
They'll luster on.
Diamonds are forever,
Sparkling round my little finger.
Unlike men, the diamonds linger;
Men are mere mortals who
Are not worth going to your grave for.
I don't need love,
For what good will love do me?
Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love's gone,
They'll luster on.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Forever and ever.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
