Hi My Fellow TH'ers
I can relate to you but I will never feel better about any item being broken or stolen. My very first Diamond ring was stolen by a visitor to my house back in 1980. The lady was stationed in West Germany with my wife in 1977-8. So my wife sort of knew her but just somewhat. After she returned to New Jersey from her visit with us in California, we noticed that the ring was missing. It was only a 1/3 Carat diamond with a couple of carbon flaws and a chip off the edge. I had been offered $125.00 for it but as it was my very first diamond ring I wanted to keep it. I now only show my better items to other TH'ers as I feel they understand what each item means! ;-)
