Hi

I had a $4,000 real diamond. When I went to trade it up to a larger one for my wife, it was only worth $100. A jewelry store buys them wholesale and then mark the price up 4000%. The value of a real diamond is fake.

I got a stunning lab grown diamond. Everyone is in awe of its beauty.

Hi actually my cousin works for GIA and they are starting to certify lab grown Diamonds his the one that told me to get a Lab diamonds.

Cool!

i am about to start my first shift at a Jewelry store and you have given me so much knowledge

Thanks so much for these videos!!! They were extremely helpful in buying my engagement ring and I’ve learned so much Diamond terminology and information in general. She always told me she never cared about the stone (whether it was a Diamond or something else). I was really hesitant about lab grown diamonds, but honestly after the research I pulled the trigger. 1) I saved $2250 on a lab grown Diamond that was two upgrades higher in clarity and color than the natural one I had. This one is G shade and VVS1 (just learned now it’s a shade lower, but hey it’s all good). It looks freaking beautiful. 2) She was fine with any stone and she’s all about being eco-friendly. 3) If you’re concerned about re-sale value, it sucks with diamonds anyways. Plus, an engagement ring shouldn’t be something you’re thinking re-sale about in the first place. Original price with the natural Diamond and setting I chose was $6500. New price with the lab Diamond which looks way better $4250. Only person who knows is her and I. Maybe in the future we’ll get a real Diamond just for kicks, but for now I think it’s perfect. Thank you!

Natural stones never appealed to me. Created diamonds are awesome. I look forward to more options as well as prices more competitive with moissanite. Most jewelry stores seems to only sell natural diamonds. I am guessing that it is due to higher margins, but maybe it is just because it will take a while for them to adapt to relatively new market trends. FYI: A jeweler told me that “lab grown” may refer to a CZ while “lab created” will always refer to a real diamond. I thought that was interesting, although I have yet to see a CZ referred to as a lab grown diamond. But, I haven’t been looking at shady retailers. Etsy definitely has some rings that blatantly lie about the materials.

You are very welcome. In the past, I had found their pricing on diamonds higher than James ALlen or Bluenile. SO from a value standpoint I preferred the other sites since pricing was better. The purpose of my videos is to give the most value. If they have Lab diamonds now that's good. For now, I love James Allen and With Clarity for my Lab diamonds.

Thank you for the fantastic series on diamond buying. It has been a wonderful education for me as I am about to buy a ring to celebrate our 20th anniversary. I have always thought resale value to be a bit of a red herring when it comes to its' consideration in the purchase. One, you will never get the original value if you are having to sell it one day which is rare for most people anyway, and secondly, for insurance purposes, the insurer will always replace your lost/stolen ring with something comparable in specifications but not original value. I'm sure they will get much better pricing as well. So in my mind, resale value is almost meaningless. Perhaps you can help with a video on choosing settings in regards to which settings are best for each cut and how to save money on settings. Thanks again and please keep up the great work ! BTW - I am leaning heavily towards a lab grown diamond. Hard to beat the value if you can just ignore the perceived value of a natural diamond and any stigma associated with the idea of "lab grown".

I am with you as well in my thoughts on lab.

If they look the same, how does anyone, even an expert, actually know if it’s lab grown when you try to resell? Say it was really high clarity

One, most lab diamonds sold have a laser inscribed code on the side, so one can use a loop and confirm the cert where it will say lab. Big cert companies have expensive equipment that will say if its lab or not. Regular people shouldn't attempt to buy diamonds uncertified on the street. Only certified goods that all have laser inscribed codes on the girdle of the diamond. Other than that, only lower clarity lab diamonds may have hair-like inclusions. Only other giveaway that the human eye can pick up. Other than that optically identical.

I have been looking into lab diamonds and I love the concept. For some reason I'm struggling with the idea that there is now a device that can tell the difference between lab created and natural diamonds. Logically I understand that they are real diamonds but I am finding it hard to get past with tiny differences. Am I right in thinking that the testers are just picking up on the nitrogen impurities in the natural diamonds? They are both real diamonds but the natural ones are not as pure? I guess that's a good thing right??

Lab grown diamonds are not chemically identical to natural diamond

So if there so similar how can a jeweler tell if its a lab diamond to not buy it back

I sold my LG for more than I paid. But I didn't buy it at retail. The buyer was ecstatic to pay 1/5 the price the damn retailer was asking for a non-LG. The shape was not what my Mrs wanted - hence the sale. The next LG I bought was unmarked (again, not from retail). I am sure I could sell it as a non-LG. The jewelry shop I showed it to had no idea it was LG. They asked why it was not marked. I said I bought it in South Africa (not true). I am sure this jeweler would have bought it from me for much more than I paid. So just don't buy retail. Buy an LG wholesale (or near wholesale) and get it mounted by a jeweler. And never buy a non-LG as there is a good chance it will be an LG.

Thanks for the comment Hansel. In terms of premium, they go in this order, whiteflash, brian, true hearts(price wise) In the diamond game, that absolute perfect cut will cost such a premium, it can sometimes be very hard to justify. Its hard for me to make that choice for my buyers. I often filter ideal cuts to find the best of the best with ideal percentages. I feel those are the best to buy. I do think True hearts is priced fairly in comparison to whiteflash etc. I can get such a larger carat instead of the few percentage points on cut gained. There is a point of diminishing returns. Tho cut is king indeed, is a few percentage points better worth carat size, which can impact the diamond stronger. Its a balance and a preference, that's my best answer.

I don't think you are correct. Technology to determine whether lab or mined has nothing to do with value. Nobody here is trying to lie and try to sell a lab as a mined. The reality is it's at a great price point compared to mined and stores aren't going to make that cheap because they will lose profit. It's actually expensive to make them, it takes expensive equipment, lots of heat, and power so the price point will stay the same bc its fair in relation to mined. There are already cheap non-diamond alternatives like CZ or moissanite. A lab diamond is chemically and optically the same as a mined diamond.

No worries, I have big hands and always type the wrong letters. A .50 total carat weight - two .25's shouldn't have a big variance in size. If its not the same exact mounting style that can effect the look and size. Hard to say without visuals.

I learned that lab diamonds are stronger then earth grown diamonds.

How can I get into business??

Hi Denise, no I like natural and lab diamonds. I am just educating on the topic. To each their own.

Buying a lab diamond 💎 looses its value in time.. yes it cost 2,500 for a 1.0ct vs 6,000 1.0ct . But heres the thing if it’s easier and faster to make the value is not worth 2,500 down the line and now i threw my money away. Natural diamond 💎 is my choice.

There are valid points against and for them. I understand your hesitance. As I said in the video, I would make an earring or pendant if I ever wanted to upgrade. Selling natural diamonds are very frustrating as well. Its a lose-lose situation.

Are they real? Yes they exist. Are the HPHT pure carbon? Yes. Real diamonds? No. ATTN MEN; YOU BETTER BUY HER GENUINE. Here's why. She may say; "She wants, or OK w lab". But one day she's going to be out w GFs. Their going to flash their real diamonds. She's going to think or say "mine's Lab". Shes going to be hurt. Even in the slightest. She'll say nothing to you. She loves you. BUT that feeling is going to grow, & Fester. One day shes really angry. It slips. Suddenly; You're a cheap POC. See ya in divorce court. Only three things are loved unconditionally. Women, children dogs. A man is loved by what he provides. Its hypergamy. Not a bash on women. Its hard drive. Like men have certain 50k yrs evolution hard wires. If she wants lab? Fine. Nothing against it. Let HER buy it. Even if its your $. Better if its hers. Shes strong independant. I digress. After 33yrs married, in jewelry. Take word of advice from a OG. Personally: I specialize in colored stones. Birthstone engagements are couple cute. Colored stones far more traditional pre 1940s. For price of diamond or HPHT CVD you can get cpl cts of emerald ( May), ruby(July), Tanzanite( Dec) a host of RARE single source gemstones. I won't spam his channel. Prof courtesy. Something he may help you with too.

Man cuts the diamonds to bring us its true beauty.. he creates that. So why not allow him to grow diamonds, too! If you plan to buy a mined diamond as an investment, forget it, because you'll lose money . Buy lab and know what you've saved on it, is what you'd lose on a mined!

@@OsirisDiamonds I've learnt!I own 2 diamond rings- mined. That I bought from a diamond dealer, / pawn shop. They were 2nd hand. As buying NEW MINED is a waste of money, too. Cos who cares if its 2nd hand- diamonds are millions of yrs old anyway!🤣.. and will still exist after we're gone.. 2nd is Ok, cheaper than than a "new ring," jewelry shop. But when I learnt about LAB diamonds- I purchased earrings and a ring. I got a far superior cut - colour- clarity and carat size for less than a mined.

Here is the best tip ever. Don't buy lab grown diamonds. Simple

I think its great that there are options out there for people. Some may say don't buy a natural diamond ever. Each have valid points to their argument.

Real diamonds are for suckers 😂😂😂😂😂😂 people have been completely ripped off for the last 500 years 😂😂😂😂

As of today GIA does do lab diamonds right?
