GOSH I feel the same way. I am drawing out all these stone sizes and the 10x8 is beginning to look small! Shrinkage is such a pain!

LOL that's very true! I've always liked them big as well!

Some days I think a stone looks small and somedays I think it looks just right! I am so difficult.... and I think poor SO is getting frustrated :P Some days I even get reverse shrinkage! I am just bipolar with stones I suppose! I feel like I should just throw my hands up and surrender.. and HE can pick out my huge ring all on his own... but then I remember his taste :P (sorry babe, if you read this - sometimes he gets on here to look at the moissanite and Asha pictures laugh )

Hahaha and this is why I love you ladies. No one snaps my head off when I say 3.5cts looks small to me now. I took my ring off for the past two days and just put it back on this morning. It looked a bit bigger but I think I'm going to write moissyco today and ask about the 12x10.

Edit: ok I've emailed them to ask. Seriously, if my damn bf just hurried up and bought the ring I wouldn't have all this time to keep finding things and changing my mind!!! I've already upgraded 3 or 4 times and we are still PRE-proposal. The longer he takes the bigger this ring gets!

Soooo I got an answer!

The BTD machine can't Amorize stones that big right now, but they are updating their system so it MAY be possible for them to do it come July/August.

So I guess once it becomes possible for that size they may be willing to do a specific stone for me?
