They stole $100mm in diamonds (street price)

Not very significant considering the industry, I know. I don’t think Harry Winston is happy about it though.

> I don’t know. I would imagine blood diamonds are purchased for below wholesale due to their illicit nature. As for the demand for diamonds worldwide I would imagine it is on the decline due to the economic situation. So, to keep the prices stable DeBeers will probably have to buy up the excess diamonds in the market. Diamonds that have been stolen or maybe sold off because their owners need money. maybe…

You’re really stretching here lol… yet that still does make sense. I dont think that was jist of your original point though lol.

I thought a lot of diamonds had serial numbers etched into them… or is that just an option for the buyer?

I’ve heard that about synthetics, but not natural diamonds. I’m no expert, though.
