WTB largest diamond anyone is willing to sell

[McGinnis]

Greetings,

I have a friend that recently lost her wedding/ering set and didn't have it insured.
She was given a budget of $1200-$2000 (lower amount for just an ering and higher if it's a set)
I've been trying to keep my eye on DB,LT,and Idonowidont but am only coming up on ones that either have been sold or ones that I don't even get a response.
Just throwing it out there. I've noticed most of you have larger, excellent quality stones.
She's not at that point where it seems to matter all that much. She just wants it to be the largest possible but not crossing over to ugly. Cert or no cert.
So far she's found a .7 ish J range very good but uncerted. I think she wants a bit larger or something with a halo for more coverage.

If anyone has any stones/rings/sets they'd like to sell for said price, please shoot me a message. Its a shot in the dark. I know how hard it is but we are keeping out fingers crossed.
I'm very eager to find something for her. She's been searching for quite some time and I care for her dearly. I know we are in good hands

Have you started a thread on Rockytalky? Even if you don't find one on Preloved, the members here can help you look other places to find one too.

Keep watching for new listings on LT and DB and here. Those will be the most likely to respond. Also check mydiamondzone. a seller on ebay. It is a jewelry store in Chicago and they will have some rings in that price range. Just emphasize that you want a decent quality diamond if you call them (which is the best idea). They have inexpensive antique style settings, too, if she likes that, and they could put an antique stone in one for her at that price.

If you tell us more specifically about what she likes, it would help narrow the search.

Thanks for the quick reply Vinjewels and diamondseeker!
I have no started a thread on rockytalk and didn't even think to! I will get on it.
To answer the question about what she likes well, she had her eyes on a halo and was set on it for more finger coverage but then she saw Frankie's previous michael b. ring and fell in love with a solitaire also.
She just wants something decent for the price and wants a single stone instead of say a three stone ring.I don't believe she's very picky.

McGinnis -

This would be a very nice diamond - especially for someone not that concerned about cut etc. The dimensions of this are very nice and it's not massively deep, so she'd get as much spread as possible, without compromising cut. and obviously, it's certed.

Hi!

This is slightly out of the price range but since it's already set, maybe her DH will give her a bit of a higher budget?

Its an I SI2 but seems eye clean and is triple ex. Starting bid is 2895, Give it a go
