    Wait, wait! Lemme guess. “Exploitation of child labor, unsafe (ie. lethal) practices, and general corruption”, right?

      Yeah but also cut hardness shine fire brilliance etc etc. moissonite is objectively superior in every way.

      This site is about two very simple truths: (1) diamonds are an incredible rip-off, and (2) a little known naturally-occuring gemstone called moissanite is superior to diamonds in every essential way: cut, color, clarity, durability, fire, brilliance, and cost.
