Hey all,
As I've been lurking around the boards I've come across the idea of a moissanite stone. Now, BF and I are at this point lightly looking online and plan to physically shop for rings in a few months (if not longer).
I brought up the idea of a moissanite and how we can get more bang for our buck. Immediately he says that they aren't as nice as diamonds, that he's be considered 'cheap' for buying that stone rather than a diamond, and he's worried they don't look as good. He also said he'd want to pass it off as a diamond, but everyone would know he couldn't afford the ring if the equivalent were diamonds. Personally, I don't care if people know or not. It the ring looks nice and we can use our money for more practical purposes than a diamond I am all for it (we have $3500 saved up, but I've researched that we could get an amazing ring for under $2000)
Anyways, I was curious what your experiences/opinions are of a moissanite stone. Do you feel cheapened that it's not a diamond? Also, I would love to see pictures, since on the website they of course look amazing
