    Bottom line!

    There is no cut info to be asked about other then whether it has fire or not. Why would he ask her about cut or clarity. It will show in the stone.

(not a shot at you, but pushy "salesman" who know nothing about diamonds).

      If we have a difference of opinions, who cares. It's Savage's call. I think I might know a little more about the subject then you though. And again, it's not a shot. But you start throwing shit at me and I'm supposed to shut up b/c you're a Mod? I have a lot of respect for you Wayne, but if you go back and reread, you'll see you started to pick a fight. Why I have no clue. I was giving my opinion to Savage and you start taking shots at me and my opinion. Is that right?
      I've not told you to shut up once in this thread and i'm giving savage an opinion DIFFERENT than yours, right or wrong.

      I picked no fight, i simply gave him "My Experiences" and you fucken DID start shit with the Nascar and Mod Status shit john so help all you want but you are still a fucken asshole for bringing that up so don't sit there on your pedastal and say you didn't take a shot you asshole!

      He also didn't say only reply if you have an expert opinion did he john?

      You are and always will be a fucken douchebag and your comments in post 32 prove that!

        I just recently bought my girlfriend an engagement ring that I haven't given her yet. And when I went to get it I opted for a bigger stone rather the best cut or clarity. Many of my friends have been getting engaged lately and it seems that all girls talk about is the size of the center stone. Personally when I look at a girls ring all I notice is how big it is. It's not like people pull out a microscope or eyeglass in a bar or wherever to examine how clean and sharp the stone is. Just my opinion,hope it helps Savage.

          That's all i'm trying to say brother. Not once did i hear a girlfriend of hers ask about clarity but you always hear the whispers of "Holy Shit did you see that rock"!

          Girls feel important with a bigger stone.

            it is size. i don't care what anyone says. two of my friends just got engaged and all my girlfriend talks about is how one girl's ring is way bigger than the other. have yet to hear my girl say "wow, that rock is of much better clarity".

                I don't ever recall telling you to shut up either.

                Post 13 "Totally disagree..telling you for a FACT (not opinion huh?)..no way she wants tiny"...so where did I say she wants a tiny ring?

                post 15 "don't care if you're an expert, 99% notice size"..said 10 times how you "size is about cut, not weight"..not a shot at me though right?

                post 16 "piece of salt"..2nd reference (impying I'm suggesting a piece of salt to Savage?) & knocking importance of clarity (coincidence I said was somewhat important huh?)

                post 20 "point out where I said above 1 carat"..I was giving comaprisons, didn't call any of your posts out

                post 22 "buy what looks good"..I called out your expertise here with question about clarity enhanced stones that look good

                post 24 "us Reg Joe's"..(shot at my "expertise?")

                post 28 "what do you bring here"..no shot right?

                post 30 "prove to be an expert"..no shot again right?

                  Guys-listen I didn't mean to start an argument, and I know you both mean well.
                  Remember I am talking about a wedding ring and not an engagement ring.
                  She is a simple lady and doesn't have expensive tastes(not yet anyways).
                  If you go back and read my original post, I think you may have missed the point, as you guys are talking expensive diamonds, which even SHE doesn't expect for a wedding ring.
                  Anyways, thanks for the help, and when I arrive in Colombia, I think at this point I want to see what SHE thinks would be appropriate. and/or in terms of price and/or to buy it there or here.
                  Just remember a good part of what I asked initially centered around how important it is for guys to even wear the wedding ring regularly as well as of course what is appropriate.
                  Thanks for all the help(not including the arguing).
                  I will keep everyone appraised as to what I do.

                      Hey fuckhead, none of those were direct shots at you unlike your post you PRICK! Posts 28 & 30 were responses to similiar comments by you.

                      When i pull the plug asshole, go see Monte to get back in because NOW i'm sick of listening to you!

                        To try and answer your question I wear a simple gold band and never take it off. As far as her ring, I spent about $2,500 on Mrs. CheChe's ring 17 years ago but I don't think it's the cost, clearity, size, etc., it's the meaning. A life time of joy together is what it's all about.

                        Telling her everyday how good she looks, a little kiss on the neck once in while, I love you when it's not expected, flowers for no reason, holding hands, opening the door for her, making her know each and everyday she is first on your mind.

                        Best wishes to you both.

                          And if you opened your eyes, you would have seen where I put CUT 1st as this is what affects the appearance of the stone. Again, you can't tell carat size by looking at a stone. Carat is weight, not size. Did I put clarity 1st? No. My opinion was it is 2nd. From the naked eye, you can't tell the difference between a VVS1 stone and an SI-1 or even an SI-2 stone. But as far as clarity, you don't want an I-1+ stone as you want the stone eye-clean. And I said it's not worth the extra cash for clarity better then SI-1,2. Color is important if you start going above H,I color as it will appear more yellow. From naked eye, a person can't tell difference between and f to g colored stone. And carat weight is not the end all be all that a lot of people believe it to be. Again, I could sell anyone on this board a 2 carat stone with poor clarity (since it's not important to some) for $1500 bucks. Just b/c it's heavy doesn't make it better.
