    Regarding budget, the old diamond-industry saying of "three month's salary" seems weird since salaries are all over the place. Also, as a marketer of sorts, it's hard to believe a sales pitch like that since it's all based on some tagline. What size diamonds do girls want (and not want) and how much should I be spending?

    • have a look around. see what looks a decent size. A solitaire will need to be a better quality as it has to work by itselfhans_glib
    • it needs to sparkle! fire and ice and all that.hans_glib
    • is there a branch of Graff in NYC (you are in NYC, right?). Look in their window for what diamonds should look like.hans_glib
    • yeah, I'll look there and ask other girls... is it a weird question to ask the size of a diamond?monospaced
    • you can surround a less good diamond with smaller stones to give the sparkle required.hans_glib
    • i doubt a girl will know the size. ask the jewellers when you see the size that looks right to youhans_glib
