@@HandlewasNoThey literally plead guilty in 2004 to criminal price fixing of diamonds. They still control about 40% of the industry but my point stands. There’s no shortage of supply. Basic economics: decreased supply, increased demand = higher prices. If that metric held true for diamonds, the price would drop a lot. Rubies, saddlers, emeralds, etc - those are rare and worth money. I literally work all over the world - 40+ countries a year. I’m a lot of things but uninformed isn’t one of them.

In the high end market it's not real. High end diamonds ~ big,clean,beautiful colored rare diamonds such as red,pink,blue,purple,orange,vivid yellow, green ... are very rare. Low end diamonds, below K color with lots of inclusions of course you get a lot ,that's why they're cheap.

Toyota transmission problems have been cropping up in 2017 to 2020 models of certain vehicles. There have been a number of complaints about the power train made to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), but no safety recalls to date. The Toyota transmission complaints over the past several years have been so numerous that attorneys are now assembling complainants to join a class action lawsuit against Toyota. The most common Toyota transmission problems logged with the NHTSA involve a lack of power or acceleration in the vehicles, or the automatic transmission remaining “stuck” in a particular gear. Complaints also include: Rough, delayed or sudden shifting Failure to accelerate from a stop Transmission shudder Sudden loss of power Premature transmission failure

so basically you're telling me all these middle men, or women, are unnecessary for the supply chain to function and there is a lot of bloat in this sector (no pun intended) I could remove most of them out of the picture and put them to more useful work and take better margins back to my company so it can outcompete - I sense a lot of complacency and price fixing to support this level of inefficient work
