For those of you that have bought them, sell them or like to research things to death first {like me and Mr. Swank}, what are we looking at here?
I've began my research because I want the best & biggest diamonds for a fair price.
I have seen similar qualities for VERY broad price ranges.
I've been to a few retail stores and for a pair of studs between 1.92-2.11 I have seen the prices range from $12k to $20k. The colors and clarities were VERY similar, and let me also say that the 1.92 were not the cheapest pair, they were about $18k.
I'm not a dope when it comes to choosing gems and we almost always buy from a broker in Houston where I'm almost positive I can score an equally nice pair for closer to $8k.
But like I said, I like to pretty much beat it to death before choosing. . . .
But does anyone have any surefire tips or knowledge?
TIA!
