      Combine that with a diamond shopping trip. USA rocks are cheaper than UK. For a different experience try Cochin in India. My small rock has been assessed in the UK at twice what I paid for it in Inja, but beware as there are as many cowboys as Indians there.
      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

      Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

        I/we have bought a lot of very nice jewelry from a lovely man in Turkey - he sends us a card every Christmas!
        All of it has been valued over here and is usually valued at around 6 or 7 times the price paid for it.
        I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

            A kiss on the hand maybe quite continental - but DIAMONDS are a girls best friend

                I did that when I was pissed one afternoon about ten years ago.

                I wasted £550 on a sovereign mounted in the most hideous mounting imaginable.

                Her Ladyship was not impressed.

                Mind you, she kept it.
