Kwon, wtf, seriously, compress that shit.

Better yet, just please, please do not put animated images in your sigs! You go way overboard with sound and everything. It's just too much Kwon

Isn't that the point?

nah you gotta fit the entire thing in

Yeah, but with a banana, that might cause mutilation. Pretty sure, most guys wouldn't want their banana mutilated!! Though you never know...

I like how this thread is now about Kyoukan and Noel getting married, rather than the truth. Reality is fucking boring anyway!

So I guess congrats to Noel and Kyoukan! Please to be naming your firstborn Veeshan!

kyoukan is a mail order bridge?

That ring there, with a half carat like this
http://www.adiamor.com/D-1432431.htm

A perfect half carat in a tension setting... stunning!

Edit to add: Probably about $4750 too

with all due respect, if you pay $5K for a half carat you got taken to the freakin woodshed.

Wholesale price on a 1 ct. weight E color diamond is around $4K. You can buy a very nice 1.33 ct diamond for around $6K. a lot of jewelers will cut their margins dramatically on engagement rings to get your business, so negotiate aggressively. The engagement ring is the "gateway drug" of jewelry

Buying the most perfect quality half carat diamond makes no sense either. Since most people dont look at women's rings with a microscope, you are much better off increasing the bling factor (size). Even with inclusions that are visible to the naked eye, you can often cover them with a post from the mounting so you can skimp on clarity there as well.

those are just my personal opinions, but diamonds are something you can absolutely negotiate on, and you should be extremely thorough shopping from jeweler to jeweler. If somebody treats you poorly don't give them your money. the only retailer i went to that could match the ultimate place i got a ring (wholesaler through family friend) was a high end jeweler, so you shouldnt rule those out either.

anyway, that's my soap box on this subject =)

Don't cheap out on the diamond! Buy something nice like this one.

I believe she's married with a child. Could be wrong though.

it takes millions of years of heat and pressure for carbon matter to compress into a diamond, which is not only the strongest bonding known to man, but also pretty to look at. the symbolic value of such a thing can't be just shrugged off as a waste of money. the only thing that really makes them not that great of a deal is the fact that diamonds are exponentially more common than the diamond consortiums that own the mines in africa (and to a lesser extent, in canada and south america) want you to think.

I'm not into blingin jewelry. in fact the only jewelry I really own are my wedding and engagement rings, and even still I value them beyond just about anything else I own. I would not call them a waste of money at all.

most jewelers don't make a profit off the materials (the stones and metals) that go into making a piece of jewelry. they make their profits off the craftmanship, and their name/reputation. it does pay to shop around and it does really not benefit you much to buy your stuff at a place that advertises discount diamond prices.

This is VV drama?

While yes you don't need a d color and excellent all around diamond, maybe it's just me but 5k isn't really very much money to spend on a symbol of a lifetime. Alos more then half that cost is for the tension setting you do realize, if you are going to spend 2200 on a diamond, as was listed before the diamond sold, put it in a setting that will get attention (mind you there are specifics for tension settings that do raise the price of the gemstone). A tension setting is simply the best way to display a stone, there are no prongs, it just seems to float there... if you have seen one you know what I mean.

True..

Now, back to the original topic....

Neither is bringing another girl along on date night!

if you have scheduled date night then your relationship is already over.

How droll. You people buy diamonds from other sources than Van Cleef and Arpels?

Wait a second. I thought Kyo was from Canada not Taiwan. When are you two getting married?

The diamond you are wearing was probably smuggled out of the mines in the ass of a poor aids ridden soul who died delivering that rock.

Spending so much money on a rock is not the best way to start off a life together. Who wants to start off in debt?

Kyou is independently married.

My fiance is not kyoukan.

I picked my girlfriend partly based on her disinterest in diamonds.

One prerequisite of going out with me is that you can't be so stupid that you're impressed by shiney rocks.

EDIT: Also, she beat me at Soul Calibur, and I need to keep her around so I can one day avenge that loss.

I picked my girlfriend partly based on her disinterest in diamonds.

Tell me if this statement is true when you are officially married. I love my wife, she was very low mantainence when we were dating. As my income grew so did her love of more expensive things.

Too her credit, I tool her to the store last year to buy a ring for our 10th anniversary and she did not pick the most expensive ring.

Don't get me wrong.. pretty stuff is cool... You just gotta prioritize =)

my wife would have been happy to have any ring i could have given her. I didnt make a lot of money when i asked her to marry me, but i think buying a woman a nice engagement ring that she will wear for the rest of her life is not a waste of money.

yes the diamond industry is/has been responsible for brutality upon Africans for centuries. so i guess it sucks in that regard. One jeweler i know of here in Atlanta actually doesn't go through DeBeers to get their diamonds, and buys directly from independent small mines in South Africa.

So not every diamond has made its way to market with somebody's blood on it. But it is fair to be critical of that industry - let alone the artificial prices due to the cartel's control.

I have been married for 11 years. Every 5th anniversary I upgrade here ring. Not for the bling or keeping up with the Jones’s, just as a thank you for putting up with my shit. To me there is no stronger bond then marriage, and if I want to spend whatever on a ring that is up to me.

Stop yer whining bike boy. Seems you were able to finally piss off the entire female population of the Continental USA and had to go off shore for a bride. No shame in that. ROFL.

TIS ON LIKE THE DONKEY KONG

My wife is the one that does our budgets. She knows exactly where we are financially all the time and absolutly hates being in debt(it stresses her out major). We had been together for something like 6 or 7 years when we got engaged and she picked out her own ring. It's real diamonds (Canadian I believe).

I offered to have it upgraded down the line when finances would get better but she's attached to the ring itself and what it represents, not the rock imbedded in the ring.

it takes millions of years of heat and pressure for carbon matter to compress into a diamond,

If heat and pressure are all that is required you could reduce the amount of time required considerably by stuffing a lump of coal up dregors ass.
The extreme weight and heat would produce a diamond in mere seconds.

Oh My!!

It may take a day or two longer, but you could probably also get one by shoving a lump of coal in Atokal's ear. Apparently the gears were really turning for the two-and-a-half days it took him to come up with that zinger, so the pressure is definitely there. I'm guessing from the beads of sweat that were glistening on his hairless cranium that you would also have the required heat to produce a flawless diamond.

The four c's that Atokal looks for are childlike, cherubic, cootie-free and (no) criers.

its hard to cry when you're passed out from the rufenol and mouth is duct-taped shut. even the hard and furious thrusting from atokals childlike member is no match for his patened roofie-smoothie.
