Default New Diamond Ring

I have had my eye on a new diamond ring for some time. Yesterday I took a friend from Al Ain diamond hunting and the ring I wanted was still there , I had told the owner of the club that when my DH got his bonus I would buy it but a some of you know the bonus didn't quite materialise to as much as we thought so there went my ring!!! anyway it was 11,000 dhs is 1.5 carats of diamond in a sort of channel setting type band. As I do alot of work with this shop he said I could have it for 4850 dhs. Atilla has told me to go for it but I am feeling guilty so would like your opinion. I have set up a poll.

Thanks

Sleep on it for a week, then a month. See if you still want it and then decide.

I personally wouldn't spend 4.5k on diamonds (good quality diamonds that hold value are much more expensive......).

Save it and buy a better quality diamond ONLY if you don't feel guilty

A girl can't have too many diamonds, too many shoes or too much champagne!!
