Somebody's Gotta Buy This Piece!

Yay glad for you! I need to post pictures of the little white gold band that I bought on ebay from the same seller that I posted the size 7 a while back, it has the most detailed and perfect engraving. Can't wait to see your Tiffany find!

Omg please do!!! Can you post a pre ure pic? I’m not sure I want to wait :lol:
 
That MC2 band…. Thank God that isn’t my size
 
Came to post this! Now on hold …

Someone please buy this before I buy a band that doesn’t fit. It’s not in my cart, but I’m stalking it waiting for the hold to release…. Ugh. Someone save meeeeee….. it’s the petals, omg the petals!

HELP!!!!! :lol:

I need someone to find something wrong with this, tell me it’s ugly, a stone is chipped, something anything :lol:


I should really unsubscribe to this thread lol

It doesn't fit! Now walk away and go spend some quality time with Flora and Cinderella. =)2
 
Well this did not pass inspection and I was given a refund. I feel like I have seen where buyers are given an option to move forward with a purchase? I also wasn’t given the reason why it failed inspection, which feels odd.

I wonder if it was way more valuable than they expected? Can they do that? I loved this for you, I’d contact the dealer and find out what went wrong.

Thanks @LightBright ! There were a few discrepancies. It tested for 10k gold and platinum. eBay also said there was “metal damage” and the metal ball for the safety closure is missing… I do intend to repurchase when the seller receives it.

I found a different one today (not the 6k one I want terribly lol) but it seems a reasonable price w/returns but does not have the authentication guarantee…. I’m newer to eBay purchases… do all you lovely PSers think that the authentication guarantee is necessary?
Also, do these look like old cuts? I think they are but I’m also hopeful. The listing doesn’t say…
Hmm perhaps I should start a thread for my search as I feel like I have bombarded this one-apologies everyone!

I also think they are old cuts (higher crowns, smaller tables, and chunkier pattern). I like the look of it a lot!!
 
The diamond is small - though probably larger than the .05 the vendor is listing - but just look at that luscious setting!
They’re asking $250 and accepting offers; size 5.5.

Btw, I've started the process to return the ring from MaxPawn. I've decided it's absolutely lovely, but isn't making my heart soar the way I would hope. So if any of you are interested, keep your eyes on their website in the coming weeks. 20250120_152317.jpg

Sooo.... Some of you may be following my journey over in Rocky Talk https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/how-to-buy-a-vintage-oec.287613/
Welll.... I may have also bought @lala646 's return. :P2

It was exactly the specs I was looking for, and looked soooo pretty in lala's pictures and videos! I was stalking MaxPawn many times a day waiting for it to pop up. I didn't mention in my thread due to lurkers. I was hoping everyone would forget. I was starting to think I missed it and someone else bought it. In the meantime, I ended up buying another (breathtakingly beautiful) stone locally, and a day later this one popped up! By that time I was committed so I went for it. :lol-2: I gave an offer a bit lower than lala's (I couldn't remember so I just guessed) and they accepted and I completed the purchase today. I'm so excited for it to arrive! If it's as good as it looks, then it's a really good deal, and the two stones together will have cost about what I was thinking to spend on just one. Can't wait!! :appl:
 
Wow @EllieTO you've got two different flavours of old cuts! It'll be so interesting for you to see them side by side. I love this thread haha.

Yes, I'm so curious to compare them. I'm keeping the Sako stone for sure. I have the return policy on this one, so there's no risk. At worst, a good learning experience. But I hope I end up loving it, it would be so fun to get it certed. And I already have a project idea for the side stones too. :P2

PS is so dangerous. I need to be banned from here for the sake of my savings account.

Yay! Looking forward to seeing what you end up doing!
