    Now lets get this straight, We should not pay umpteen thousands of
    dollars for a broken diamond...There was a court case in the States,
    where a jeweller by accident broke a very large diamond. The bench
    jeweller was taken to court by the store owner...:>( no one should be
    totally responsible for the loss! The Judge asked the jeweller: 

	1) did YOU brake the diamond..Yes!
	2) did the store owner pay you for setting the stone..Yes!
	3) how much was the diamond...$??,???.00 and how much did he pay
    you....$ (little).00

    "So because he paid you so little and he thinks that YOU should pay
    for this item. Is 'guy' for real?...Case Dismissed"........Gerry!
