got the wife a diamond pendant from this place

http://www.bluenile.co.uk/

Much cheaper than the shops (average 1/3rd cheaper), delivered quickly and got it valued and its the exactly what they said it was (grade colour cut clarity etc of diamond)

firstly got one on ebay, but the diamond was an I grade clarity, and it wasnt very good looking (cloudy at one side). Fortunately could return it for a full refund.

So, if any members are thinking of getting married :sad: then save a few £££ and get the engagement ring from bluenile, recommended :thumbright:

Handyman, you were meant to say "No - Pink diamonds don't exist" in case Handy Nagie reads this. :roll:

I bought the wife an 8 caret diamond for £500.

There's a downside: it's uncut.

Very classy scruff, she must be over the moon. :-)

When I went to dubai a couple of times, I always bought 18K italian design gold items, never bought any diamonds, but they are so much cheaper over there, saw some beautiful diamond stuff.

I told hubby its worth just going there for a short break, just to buy the gold and diamonds, obviously hints dont work. :cb

You got the right name for it BD, I must admit to being slightly shell shock when they valued it at over £20k, when I only paid £3.5k on ebay for it. :thumbright:
