Do and Don'ts of Diamond Buying

When it comes to buying your diamond, be it for an engagement or as gift for special loved ones, it is very important that you know exactly what you are looking for. Here are some pointers to make your quest for your special diamond easy.

Do some research first. Gather information before talking to jewelry professionals. This way, the jeweler is aware that you know what you want and you can start your dealing in an even footing so you will be taken seriously right from the start.

Do your best to listen to the jeweler’s suggestions. The knowledge you gain in this article will enable you to tell if the jeweler’s advice is for your best interest.

Do provide the jeweler with all the complete information about what you want him to do with your desired diamond. It’s better to take your time to consider everything that you want than to rush the order then have it redone later because of an incorrect ring size, setting, etc.

Do request a money back guarantee when possible. This will enable you to go elsewhere and be certain that indeed you received what you were told.

Do talk about your jeweler to other people if you were satisfied with his professional services. The greatest show of appreciation is a referral.

Don’t believe everything you see on online auction sites. If you know the price of a diamond from several sources and you see it on those sites for much less, chances are, it is not the same diamond.

Don’t forget that jewelers have their own in-house appraisals too. If the appraised value seems unrealistic, it probably is.

Don’t allow yourself to be pressured into making a purchase on the spot. Take time to think and buy the diamond when you feel that you are getting the best possible diamond for your money.

Don’t forget that this diamond ring is for your love for a special someone. Enjoy the process and think positive when making the purchase.
