The only thing I know is that it’s the most overpriced commodity there is, as in if i spend 1000$ at Zales and Jared, it probably cost them 150. Also cut and clarity over size is what I’ve read.
I’ve never purchased jewelry before. I’d like to buy either earrings or a necklace, hell maybe even a set. I’d like to spend 1000$. Obviously this is an xmas gift.
What to look for? What’s a good deal? Who’s least likely to fuck me over? I plan on doing a lot of shopping around.
Excellent service and you can customize anything to be exactly what you want.
Got my fiance engagement ring there and it turned out fantastic. Shipped in a bunch of different diamonds so I could pick the one I wanted and had the ring custom made.
It’s not necessarily cut and clarity OVER size. It’s about striking the right balance. Size matters to your lady, 100%.
You really gotta find out what your girl likes and go from there. My wife likes lots of shiny stuff, so I opted to spend more on the setting, and dial the diamond back a little bit. Some girls just like a big rock with a simple/basic setting, in which case you can buy an inexpensive setting and the biggest/best diamond for it.
Setting material matters too. White gold is a little bit cheaper than platinum, but there are trade-offs.
