[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you live in the DC area, especially the DCUM demographic, real diamonds will never be worth it. Go to other parts of the country, including the UES of NYC, and you'll get very different answers.

It really depends on your social circles.[/quote]

The little secret is there is no way to tell if a diamond is lab grown or natural. They say 50% of natural diamonds are actually labs. The certifications are faked.

New York is the heart of the diamond cartel in the US. Of course they will push natural diamonds. Though do you really think all those natural diamond is real? No way. [/quote]

It's very easy for an experienced gemologist to say and they can even identify the growing method of the lab diamond.  There's also a tool that one can buy to test for lab vs natural  but it's expensive.  [/quote]

No, a typical gemologist doesn't have the specialized (and very expensive) equipment necessary to tell the difference. They can only look for inscriptions claiming one way or another.[/quote]

Wrong. More jewelers have the tool used to id labs. Not all labs have inscriptions. Think about it. Labs are made all over the world now and particularly in the 3rd world. Who is going around forcing facilities to inscribe lab diamonds?[/quote]
