Have You Ever Tried to Sell A Diamond? Being on the buy side of that is great, however - got engaged last year and bought a beautiful 250 year old ring with about 30ct of stones in it, biggest about 6ct. Was probably originally some obese Georgian duke's, but whatever. Shrinking a band is easy. Silver, so the thing was black and grotty in a dusty display case in an antiques centre. Would've been tens or hundreds of thousands retail and new, just for the stones, but was instead nearer a thousand, and yes, got it assayed for insurable value. Buy things because they're nice, not because they're expensive.
