diamond rebate? - WoolyGoat - 01-30-2008

another stupid internet rumor? (nothing on snopes)


Quote:Subject: Bought any diamonds between 1994-2006


Hi all, I hope this makes your day, like it made mine! There is currently a lawsuit agains Debeers Diamonds for price fixing between January 1994 and March 2006, and anyone that bought new diamond jewelry in that time is eligible to get money back! It doesn't matter who you bought it from because Debeers had a monopoly on loose diamonds. (I could be wrong but this is how I understand it.)

My husband heard about it on NPR, did a little research, and we're getting $500 back on my engagement ring--so it really is worth checking out Smile

Happy windfall to all of you!

She can't have any idea how much she'll get back as the $$$ is dependent on how many people submit for refunds. And by spreading the word she is reducing the amount she is likely to get. Broads are dumb.

yeah sure.

next headlines "woman ask for divorce 'cause the diamonds where only a bunch of swarovsky's and not the real shit as his husband did claimed".

I've got a big picture of how this conversation would turn out...

Flumper: Hey honey, DeBeers is giving money back on any diamonds I bought you since 1994. Isn't that great news?
