Frequently Asked Questions

Why is diamond resale so low?
Because diamonds aren't rare — De Beers manufactured the scarcity (1947 "A Diamond Is Forever" campaign). Lab-grown diamonds (chemically identical) cost 80% less. Resale market: jewelers buy back at 20-35% of retail. Pawnshops: 10-25%. The retail markup is ~300-500% above wholesale.
Is this anti-marriage?
Non — anti-overpaying. Plenty of couples skip diamond rings (moissanite, sapphire, family heirloom, no ring) and have wonderful marriages. The "two months' salary" rule was invented by De Beers in 1947 marketing. It's not a tradition; it's a campaign.
But the fiancée wants a "real" diamond!
Lab-grown diamonds ARE real diamonds — same C/H/N atoms in same crystal structure, same optical properties, same hardness. Even gemologists need lab tests to distinguish from mined. The only difference: lab is 80% cheaper, ethical (no mining labor issues), and has zero environmental footprint vs the mining destruction.
What's the smart play?
Three options: (1) Lab-grown diamond — same look, 1/5 price. (2) Moissanite — even cheaper, more brilliant, almost-same hardness. (3) Vintage/family heirloom — has actual value preserved. (4) Skip the ring entirely; redirect to honeymoon, house, or investment. Save €4-7K instantly. Marriage works either way.
