I think people still think of Moissanite as the same as CZ...and not even the good stuff either. 95% of people hear either term and think of the rings in the spinny rack at K-Mart that are sparkly for all the wrong reasons and are held in the setting with super glue, LOL. I can honestly say that if you help a Moissy, a CZ and a Diamond up in front of me...I'd have NO idea which was which. I'm OK with that.
