Anyway, she sales girl said that this promotion b.rose ring had a cert where you can exhange after 2 years or so.. like if you brought this for $368, after 2 years like say you want a $500 diamond ring, you only need to pay the remaining sum with your current $368 ring only.<br /> <br /> I did research on some Jewellery forum and someone said that Sookee charged b.rose way overpriced and even mention that it's not H&amp;T cut? I dunno what h&amp;T cut means anyway.. but he mention that Taka is better for cost-wise.<br /> <br /> Hmm.. actually I did not intend to invest or anything.. I just want to buy a ring for my girlfriend which i can afford and want her to be happy.<br /> <br /> Anyway, that promotion $368 ring is not bad though im tempted to buy. She claimed that it's the last one and other outlet might not have it.. and wanted me to put a $50 deposit to 'book' this ring. I just told her that I'll be looking around and will come back if it's still there.. so I'm abit confuse whether to buy it or not...</p> Mon, 28 Jan 2008 01:08:29 +0800 politics.sgforums.com:8:305387:7816767 Sweet[Saint] http://politics.sgforums.com/forums/8/topics/305387 <p>overated... just abit design wanna charge so expensive.. <img title="Twisted Evil" src= "/images/emoticons/classic/icon_twisted.gif" alt="Twisted Evil" /> <img title="Twisted Evil" src= "/images/emoticons/classic/icon_twisted.gif" alt= "Twisted Evil" /><br /> <br /> if wanna invest, invest a higher end diamond.. not those small small ones</p> Sun, 27 Jan 2008 23:40:36 +0800 politics.sgforums.com:8:305387:7816089 gnab http://politics.sgforums.com/forums/8/topics/305387 <p>Aiyah..all gimmicks la..SK have their Brilliant Rose cut, Goldheart have their Celestial cut..they all claim only they have this kind of cut..of cuz la! They modify other people's cut a bit here and there and claim it to be their own unique cut and claim that their cut will make their diamonds the brightest of all..bullsh!t.. <img title="Laughing" src= "/images/emoticons/classic/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" /><br /> <br /> Yes, indeed the cut of the diamond is very important to determine whether will it shine brightly or not..but if you compare, let's say, SK's Brilliant Rose and Goldheart's Celestial, I think you won't be able to tell which is brighter..<br /> <br /> But some are rather unique..like Lee Hwa's Hearts on Fire..can really see hearts in the cut of the diamond..but again, that's with microscope..with our naked eyes, it's just another shiny diamond..<br /> <br /> And like what mr_sotong said..diamonds ARE indeed overrated..</p> Sun, 27 Jan 2008 23:34:51 +0800 politics.sgforums.com:8:305387:7816025 alleggerita http://politics.sgforums.com/forums/8/topics/305387 <p>Anything that is below 1carat and not certified is not worth investing.</p> Sun, 27 Jan 2008 23:23:23 +0800 politics.sgforums.com:8:305387:7815900 BeautifulBetty http://politics.sgforums.com/forums/8/topics/305387 <blockquote> <div class="quote_from">Originally posted by caleb_chiang:</div> <div class="quote_body">Well, price are revised from time to time.
