Looking to buy an engagement ring

[bing]

quoting my comments in other threads about this:

@bing

i bought my engagement ring from bluenile and saved $6,000 over buying it in a store.

You can get F and IF (flawless and internally flawless) diamonds there, you cannot get that most places.

I had a secondary appraisal done on it locally and it came out higher than the one that was provided with the ring.

No point in buying your setting somewhere else, that just costs you more money. Or, send them your setting for the diamond.

They shipped it overnight to me for like nothing… very very very highly recommend.

www.bluenile.com

best place to buy diamonds and / or rings.

GIA certification
Laser encrypted identification
By far the best prices for CCC vs anyone else
Fast insured shipping

I bought mine there, saved probably $6,000 over buying in person.

If you even walk into Spence Diamonds you suck at life… never go there. They couldnt even get the grade of diamond i wanted; “we don’t sell diamonds that quality”. And they were about $5,000 too expensive on the best they ‘could’ get… and that was just for the diamond…

@bing

use www.bluenile.com

even if you do not buy there, make sure you compare… i found it to be upwards of 60% cheaper than canadian jewellers.

most importantly though, GIA certifications on the diamonds and laser enscribed identification on the diamonds as well…

RE: $1200… fuck off with that… if you are in medical school then you’re just going to have to buy her a second ring later one to make up for the $1200 one you’re buying now.

stretch the budget to $5k and get something your future doctor buddies won’t tease you for… i don’t know what kind of car you drive but you cannot spend less on a ring than you would on wheels… the ring has to be equal or greater than the most expensive single upgrade to your car… otherwise you are going to have issues
