Look at some of the booze prices - I've seen booze behind glass for over $1000 a bottle, some higher. In Costco. If I had that kind of money I'd probably be shopping somewhere else.

Reminds me of my Italian grandfather.
My sister was getting married and the dinner was held at a fancy Italian restaurant. The had a wheel of Parmaggiano they used as part of the food display. My 80 something year old Italian grandfather bent half a dozen butter knives in half prying off a 10-15 pound chunk of the wheel and hid it in my grandmothers purse.. |

Quoted: I find that hard to believe. Unfortunately my wife’s diamond is an “H” drives me nuts. I guess that’s the price you pay for using a family heirloom that my great grandpa bought in 1910 View Quote Things in the diamond markets have changed a lot over the last hundred years. Even owning a diamond was out of reach for most people in 1910, one thing you might check, is the stone in your wife's ring a ideal cut or an old European cut, many stones in that day were cut in the Old European style, which allowed the color to be more noticeable. |

Glad to see I was close to my estimates on pricing. Just went through this, would have been easier if my SO was in the biz. |

Quoted: You are talking an entirely different class of diamond than what is available now a days, in 1910, there were very few colorless or flawless diamonds even found, and the ones that were normally ended up in collections.

Know nothing about the "Ham Kit" but I'm assuming it's the Spanish equivalent to real Italian Prosciutto?
Keep in mind that until recently it was illegal to import such pork products which was stupid...or a plot by American pork producers to keep a superior product out of the reach of 'mericans for no other reason than pure profit. |
