Good links. However, the Amazon and bluenile ones appear to be dead. At least they aren't working for me. Good actual comparison, though, Swanky!

Wow Great site. Thanks for sharing this information. I will check on this online on other sites for more information. Online order is best, but read carefully terms and condition before place the order.

don't know if this one has been posted yet, but here is a picture reference for the more visually inclined of different RB carat sizes (literally every 0.01ct increase) on a size 6 hand:

0.05-0.49ct http://www.engagementringguru.com/di...9_carats.shtml

0.5-0.99ct http://www.engagementringguru.com/di...9_carats.shtml

1-1.75ct http://www.engagementringguru.com/di...5_carats.shtml

1.76-2.5ct http://www.engagementringguru.com/di...at_range.shtml

2.51-3ct http://www.engagementringguru.com/di...e_carats.shtml
