    Wait, wait! Lemme guess. “Exploitation of child labor, unsafe (ie. lethal) practices, and general corruption”, right?

    • Yeah but also cut hardness shine fire brilliance etc etc. moissonite is objectively superior in every way.

      This site is about two very simple truths: (1) diamonds are an incredible rip-off, and (2) a little known naturally-occuring gemstone called moissanite is superior to diamonds in every essential way: cut, color, clarity, durability, fire, brilliance, and cost.

        When I proposed to my wife, I gave her the choice. Sure could have a diamond, or she could have a moissonite (which is sparklier) and we could pay off her car loan. She made the right choice.
