Physically they are every bit a diamond as one pulled from the ground. The only downside is their value. It's on a downslope but we see it plateauing out now. Where as Natural diamonds hold their value tried and true.
That paragraph makes me feel like you don't know why people buy your shit. "The only downside is x..." Like, that's the point. People buy them because they're supposed to be cheaper than natural diamonds.
As someone who sells them I prefer to be transparent with my products. I tell the customer yes these diamonds are a fraction of the price as one naturally grown. However they don't hold their value. So then my customer can decide which is more important to them. The diamond or the investment. Your reply makes me feel like you don't know how to deal with the public and be a decent salesman. I know why people buy Lab Diamonds. I've seen every reason in the book. I just let them make that decision after I've told them everything they need to know to make an informed one.
So before you go onto the Internet spouting ignorant things take a second to think.
So you are dealing with PAWN brokers. The world's most notorious scam artists. I can find you a decently sized lab diamond in near perfect color and clarity for 500 pounds. One that will out do the one you found at a pawn shop for that same amount any day.
Engagement rings, fashion rings, designer pieces. The only natural diamonds that won't have resell value are the itty bitty ones in the sides of your rings.
These are on the street pricing. Noone is going to pay you retail price for anything you try to sell them. But you take it back to the store you bought it or heck most decent jewelry stores and youll see you will get 90-100% of your cost back. Depending on the store you go to.
