Nick, I think that after some 40 years in the trade I can find my way round a Certificate, GIA or otherwise. If you ever find yourself this side of the pond, look me up and prepare to be surprised. Of course, should you try and take a handful back, doubtless US Customs will present you with a thumping bill, which may be the explanation for the discrepancy in cost (most diamonds in Europe are cut in Antwerp, because both Belgium and the U.K. are in the E.U., no tariffs are payable when diamonds pass between these countries). Melee? I would't touch a diamond less than 1/2 carat (O.K. maybe for a top colour, nice cut stone I might be tempted down to 1/3 carat, but certainly no lower). Different attitudes, different circumstances.
