How do these factors affect engagement rings as an investment?
I'm shopping around for an engagement ring. At the moment, I'm considering two options. From a "will she like it?" perspective consider them equal. (I say that because that is really the MOST important criteria)
I've found two options I really like, but they are dramatically different. One where the stone is 83% of the cost, with a relatively simple band. The other option is that the stone is 63% of the cost with a more elaborate band with 10 small stones.
All else being equal, which one is a better investment?

As an investment, count the gold value and discount the stone to (not by) 30% of the price you're paying for it.
Diamond jewelry is consumption goods, not an investment - the market is not liquid, you're likely paying 100-200% markup over the wholesale price, and you'll be likely to sell it only below the wholesale price, so you lose a majority of its value the moment you walk out of the shop.
