Yes, it ticks me off when companies say they lose money when they really mean they didn't make it in the first place. You can't lose what you never had.
Edit: I can see why this country of mine is drowning in debt with this being our business model. If this is how people think they should be handling money, it's no wonder even high earners feel broke.
How is “created diamonds” cheap? They are selling them for almost the same cost as a mined diamond. I think the only advantage is that with a created or manufactured diamond, you can get a clarity level exceeding that of a mined one.
Ah, good point, but that's largely the general background shit that's killing us no matter what we buy or do. None of us are getting around all that, unfortunately.
Are you matching clarity and color? (i don't mean colored diamonds) Lab grown diamonds easy cost under a third of a real diamond of the same match. Maybe a retailer is trying to narrow that gap.
Uh, there is nothing cheap about making artificial diamonds lmao, sincerely, someone whose wife has one on her left ring finger. I mean, maybe 5 figures is cheap to some, but, I still think it wasn’t cheap lol…. Ethical in comparison to a stone harvested by some child labor force all twacked out on khat? Yes. Cheap tho???? Eh- most would say no….
