why oh why do the people who make cz ring insist on have the stone be eqivalent to 1 ct + diamond . I look for a inexpensive .5 cz for over a week and finally buy this one even though I think it be a little big . it be , it look slightly bigger than a 1 ct diamond , and it look fake . I do find some .5 cz from a couple of `` high end cz '' seller , but they want over $ 150 for the end product . . , way more than I be willing to spend . my .5 ct solitaire diamond engagement ring go miss , but I still have the `` wrap '' that go around it to complete my wedding band set , -lrb- I still have no idea how they become seperate , and suspect theft -rrb- . . , and I order this to fit in wedding set . . , it do fit . I wear a 9 , and the band be actually closer to a 8.5 , so it just barely fit . -lrb- and you may want to order up if you choose this ring -rrb- the band look a little smaller than picture , but I think that be just because the stone be really too big to look real . the band be comfortable though , and even though I think it be size slightly small , it be a decent band . the stone be set a little high for I . I read a lot of review in my hunt for this ring , and I think the seller could really benefit from read this . . , BUYERS WANT ACCESS to .25 and .5 cz be that be still in BANDS of REAL METAL , and price well . one of the prong be bent outward a little , but that be easy to fix . overall , for the price , I would have to list it as a good purchase . . , the quality of the cz , the band , and the setting be all very good for the price . . , and because the description be accurate as to the size of the stone , I give it 3 star . PS . I find my diamond ring ! no one steal it , it be under a dresser . . , still have no idea how that happend ... ,
