    I said to myself I should stay out of philosophical discussions. Its
    like talking politics at a cocktail party. 

    There's a very old adage in the biz that you get the reputation you
    deserve. People are smart, they can figure things out. Once they get
    wind that a jeweler has policies that maybe the public might take
    issue with, that jeweler's reputation may reflect a certain distrust
    on the part of the public. 

    So, ethical considerations aside for the moment...it might be wise to
    project into the future the cumulative effect one's policies will
    have on one's business potential. If one depends upon repeat
    business your reputation precedes you.
