    +1, but damn it, now I have one of their songs stuck in my head! "Just Jared... It can only be Jared..."

    Thanks a lot.

    You could try Shane Co. I've never gotten anything from them, but I know 3 others who have. Plus, one store is next door to Fay Myers if you decide to spend the $$ on bike stuffs instead of jewelry. I believe the other is in Westminster.

    Re: Best Price on Diamond Jewelry

    Bought my wife's diamonds at Shane. No problems, great customer service and seemingly reasonable prices (for jewelry that is).

    Steer clear of Jared's, it always feels like a crappy used car lot when I'm in there.

    Dunno about the rest, but the wife's gear has come from Ben Bridge. Their selection was what I wanted which got me in the door. But the post-sales service has been what keeps me coming back.

    Re: Best Price on Diamond Jewelry

    ...and now, some worthless info...


    I've never understood the diamond craze. It's an artificially overpriced commodity. ...but, they are sparkly!!

    They're not even rare, yet people pay out the ass for them! Ya gotta love the dynamics of a civilized, modern society!!

    De Beers is a genius! Here's a quote from "Facts About Diamonds" - "To maintain the high prices of diamonds, De Beers creates an artificial scarcity: they stockpile mined diamonds and sell them in small amounts."

    Perhaps De Beers chairman Nicky Oppenheimer said it best: "diamonds are intrinsically worthless, except for the deep psychological need they fill."

    Reminds me of religion! ...but, they are sparkly!!

    I figured it was too harsh an example on why I hate diamonds, so I quoted some facts, instead. "Blood Diamond" sums it up!!

    Costco!!

    Seriously, they do sell diamond jewelry. You can get a $1.6M ring for $1M, a fab deal.

    UGH.

    Re: Best Price on Diamond Jewelry

    I have a cousin that paid like $30K for a diamond engagement ring, girl excepts it, then a month or two later gives it back. He took it to the store he bought it from, its when he learned diamonds are worthless and their is a huge markup on them. $30K ring, even insured value was that...guy says sorry I can not give you anything for it. My cousin says he is willing to take $10K, guy says sorry its worthless to us, my cousin is like what do you mean, there is such a high markup it would be insulting to tell you the guy says.

    Yep, I have a place in Detroit...its a undisclosed building, the guys that make the Jewelry for Jared and other stores are on the 5th floor of this building. Its lined with Arab Jewelry makers. Same ring at a fancy story was $18K, I paid this guy to go look at the ring and copy it and it cost me $3K. I was told of the place by some guy at a trade show...without a referral you would never know this place existed...for good reason, it probably be robbed...they had guards, security cameras everywhere...but you could just walk in.

    Large flawless Diamonds are rare, but the kinds you can typically get are peanuts, but people think they are rare and valuable. If they were rare, you buy them like Gold to protect your money in hard times...try selling a diamond ring if the shit hits the fan, you won't even get a bag of Ramen Noodles.

    I agree, Costco should be considered.

    (Just for clarification, my earlier "UGH" was reserved for the diamond industry in general.)
