I think one of the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life was to visit your website after I have purchased an engagement ring from bluenile. I bought a 0.9carat GIA excellent, J color, SI2 round brilliance with a setting. The diamond alone cost about US$3100. The link is here: Blue Nile LD02692689 …
I really appreciate your website and am looking for some suggestions.
