Popularly said that diamonds value drop by over 25-50% the sec you buy it. I know that diamonds value is low key de beers bullshit.
But what I wanna know is how do they calculate the diamond resale value and rational behind 50% resale value of something that never breaks or damages. How do they come up with this shit?

The reason it loses value immediately is because they were charging you 25 to 50% more than it was worth. Because the entire diamond industry is a complete scam. They marked it up because you were willing to pay it. People don’t buy diamonds for their usefulness, they buy them because they’re expensive, so a larger price tag is a selling point for some people.

People who actually know how much diamonds are really worth are buying them wholesale and selling them to us.
