Not a problem for me then with plenty of armour
Joking aside, that was exactly what my Father did.
he went to the UK, my Mother asked him for some diamond earings, he brought her back white gold one full carat left and right earings.
A few years later, she was in a jewellery store and the jeweller asked if he could have a look.
Under the Maggy glass, and OOPS!! They were cubic Ziconias
My Mother flushed them down the dunny
She felt so proud of those earings which just goes to show, they look the bloody same!
