"There, right there is where I think it happened."

WATCH AGAIN.

TWO ARMS CROSS OVER A TRAY...AND A 54-THOUSAND DOLLAR DIAMOND RING IS GONE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE.

"They just started touching the rings and picking them up and looking at em."

THE CLERK, DIANE ATKINSON SAYS ONE OF THE WOMEN ASKED HER TO BRING THE ENTIRE TRAY OF RINGS OUT OF THE CASE...SOMETHING SHE NEVER DOES.

"She said look, I just put drops in my eyes and she said I can't really see it...can you just bring the tray out and I told her, I said I can only bring one out at a time. And she goes - and she started getting loud.

TO KEEP THE PEACE, ATKINSON BRINGS OUT THE TRAY.

WATCH HERE.

IN ONE QUICK BRUSH, THE WOMEN REPLACE THE 4-POINT-7-8 RING WITH THE FAKE.

"Well, I've been trained to look for empty slots, so everything was full. I had no reason to question it."

NOW WATCH THE WOMAN IN THE WHITE SHIRT.

"Right there, right there. See? Did you see her hand go in her purse?"

SHE PRETENDS TO STRETCH AND SLIPS THE DIAMOND RING IN HER PURSE.
