Im just chewing over how this week the new Bobov 45 Takanos were announced, and a few blocks away theres a diamond necklace in a Jewelry store window that outdoes the jewelry in Harry Winston's and Leviev's 5th avenue windows (stores that cater to the diamond jewelry needs of the wealthiest people in the world). Ive seen expensive necklaces in Simpson's window, but I think this necklace probably outdoes the previous ones.

Perhaps women buying the Simpson's necklace will tell people its costume, to avoid Ayin Hara, the opposite of buying at All that Glitters, and hoping people think the costume diamonds are real.

Generally speaking those that are purchasing that necklace are known wn to be wealthy. No one will doubt that it’s real but no one will be shocked either. It was designed for a few wealthy individuals not for the average passerby earning the median (or even three times the median) income.
What I find unfair is that those same individual can go into a store like all that glitters, and purchase anything fake - anyone who sees it will assume its genuine. As opposed to most people who will purchase a fake and it’ll be questioned.

Is it one of these?

No way. Its a necklace full of solitaire engagement ring size diamonds, going all around the neck.

Closer to this Harry Winston necklace. It just doesnt have the diamond hanging fro the center and has less diamonds.

I dont have questions about anyone.

Im curious about the price of the necklace in the window.

And no, Im not gong into the store to ask, because I believe its against Halacha, if youre sure you wont buy it.

I never saw a Simpson wear any diamond. Usually she wears those simple red beads:

I'm almost sure she was joking.

Do you think imamother is the place to advertise a #millionairesnecklace?

Aren't we all frugal hardworking lower middle class no government help high tuition imas?

(With the exception of me of course. I am rich and savvy and have the most wonderfull everything keh. But I already have that necklace so no advertisements needed.) Tongue Out

Actually that's not true. You can walk in and honestly saw that you pass their window often and are curious as to how much the necklace costs.....

I recently walked into a store with my dc. My DC knew we were just browsing. I told the shopkeeper as we walked in. He happily answered all out questions. We may be a customer there one day.

NO!!! I am too. I think it's a lack oof middos to buy such an expensive piece of jewelry, even if you have the $$ and even stronger lack of middos to publicize it.

Simpson’s probably removed it from the window display at this point because there were so many interested customers from this thread...
