Actually diamonds aren’t rare at all. DeBeers just mines them then stores them in vaults and doles them out to keep the price up. I wouldn’t waste $10 on a diamond.
My inlaws bought a $20 000 diamond ring and years later took it back to the store still with the price tag. They said we just sell diamonds and wouldn’t buy it back at any price. I’m not sure what happened to it but I could’ve bought it for a pittance but what would I do with it.
