I think we're all pretty familiar with articles that claim to debunk the myths of the diamond business. So, Ira Weissman's piece titled 7 Reasons Why Diamonds are a Waste of your Money isn't very surprising, though it has created a modest ruckus. Remember, it's summer, that lackadaisical time of year when the diamond industry slows to a soft halt before revving up for the fall. The industry needs a little more blog fodder, right? So, thanks Mr. Weissman for waking us from our heat-addled haze, even though I'm sure some of us would've rather napped a little longer.
