  A) because the availability of previously owned diamonds would make the market demand curve for diamonds more inelastic and force De Beers to lower its price
  B) because previously owned diamonds would be a close substitute to newly mined diamonds and therefore reduce De Beers' market power
  C) because the availability of previously owned diamonds would increase the market demand for diamonds and dilute De Beers' monopoly
  D) because De Beers will not be able to guarantee the quality of previously owned diamonds and fears that its reputation might be harmed
