[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will only buy mined diamonds.  I just can’t get behind a lab diamond.  Fake is fake.  My diamond jewelry is for me, and to be passed down to my kids if they want it.  I don’t view it as an investment and the resale value doesn’t matter to me [/quote]

This is fine, but I'd be surprised if your kids end up wanting them. I think lab diamonds will depress prices but also predict an oversupply of mined diamonds as folks pass on "heirloom" pieces that no longer fit the aesthetic or political sensibilities of the next generation. [/quote]

Heirloom pieces are often worthless. People are just going to throw them away or give them to little kids to play with.[/quote]

I don’t think this is true.  My mother has two heavy 18k gold necklaces bought 30 years ago- one a gift from my father, one a splurge to reward herself after starting a new job.  These pieces would each cost thousands of dollars today.  I am keeping them!![/quote]

Gold jewelry is often sold just for the value of the gold itself as opposed to the metal work and artistry involved. Try selling them and find out

Also, yes keep them if they are gold.
