Being "real" doesn't matter to me, in fact, my kids want to make a diamond out of me after I pass :lol:

Moissanite is a great way to go!!! I LOVE it. Have earrings, rings, necklaces....the Moissanite that I have sparkles just as much or more than diamonds that I own!

Real diamond is neither shallow nor cloudy, has a shine and can be tell that is it authentic. Likewise a fakediamond may look as if its cubic zirconia(sp) cloudy and very shallow!

The costs of the real and rake diamonds are very noticeable. You can definitely tell by the prices of them.

Helllllll NO! Most rely on the customers ignorance. I've been suckered in my youth too many times to count. Especially, when it came to buying what I thought was 10 and 14k gold.

The difference is HUGE!
From the looks, they look the same, but from the rarity of it - which is the value - there is no comparision.

If you want to get somethign real and unique, then get the real one.
