I feel like a soft brush, although takes longer, would be better than the sonic cleaner because you can actually scrub the nooks and crannies. But I don't have a brolic Cuban yet so I could be wrong. Speaking of which, I need to clean my damn ropes.

I have a medical grade ultrasonic cleaner and also an Icebox ultrasonic cleaner but I still use dawn and a toothbrush at least half the time.

I boiled sum water the other day on an electric range in a pot with one of those holes on the lid and used the steam from that to clean a piece, is that basically what a steam cleaner would do?

Too subjective.

You can have a thicc chain that’s 30 grams but hollow.

Or you can have a thin solid chain that can be double that in weight.

"respectable weight out in the streets" the weight that's respectable by "the streets" is minimum is 350+ grams i guess

How much off a sticker price can I expect to pay for an engagement ring?

The sticker price is arbitrary and should not weigh in your negotiations. Try pricing by the price of gold, then add the value of the diamond(s). That will be a better place to begin negotiations. The sticker price might be 10x the value of the ring

Why 200+ grams? Too heavy to pull and unlock?

You can get rings cheap off of Ebay

Depends on where you purchase. A lot of the higher end places (Harry Winston, etc.) won't. But when you aren't purchasing the brand it is a lot more wiggle room.

its called density and strength.

any fellow filipinos in here? im going to the phillipines in may and looking to cop a rope chain there. if anyone knows where, i'd like to find a good place and fifure out whats considered a good price. my parents (not from the Philippines, but they have been/lived there for a short time) tell me its way cheaper over there which i believe it is, but i will only cop if its worth it. i'd rather cop from the U.S so i know its legit if anything. i do have a couple random pieces my grandma copped for me when i was a kid though so i have nothing against getting from there. it just has to be worth it.

also how does jewelery work in other countries? do they give certificate of authenticity out? my pieces that i have already dont have any of that and they are form the phillipines, but maybe my grandma never knew to ask about that lol

Did you see what happen to Steve Francis in the club couple years ago?

I was thinking 100-150 grams would be dense enough.
