Diamond Question

[LOOKINGOOD35]

My friend has a new ring setting, she is in need of a 10x9 Radiant diamond
We are attempting to locate a diamond dealer.
Is this chart correct with pricing?


DIAMOND REGISTRY DIAMOND PRICE LIST


http://www.diamondregistry.com/

We are attempting to locate her a better deal than regular retail.
I am open to suggestions.

I would look at Goodoldgold.com because he will test the stones to see how they perform.

I know nothing about that Diamond Registry company.

If I'm correct that would be about a 5ct radiant. Bluenile has them a bit cheaper than that chart. I looked up an I SI1 at bluenile that was $50k-ish, but according to that chart it was more like $80k.
But for a D VS2 in that size blue nile has one for $190k where as the chart you posted lists a 5ct D VS2 being $230k I think?

Briangavindiamonds.com has two in that range. A H Si2 for $58k and a E Vs2 for $153k

This chart came out to about 10% less than my Tiffany Solitaires cost.

no, chart is all wrong! No way to get an ideal D color 10 crt for $73,178!

swanky..the price is price per carat...so the chart is saying a 10ct would be $731,780

Any info on how to locate a diamond broker?
Is it true the price will be much better?

I have not found "brokers" to be any less expensive than an online vendor we mentioned above. They still have overhead.

you have to know that broker well in order to get a good deal. Those brokers are wholesale basicly. thus, they will price you almost at retail prices.

There's almost no such thing. . . . if there were brokers that would sell to anyone way below retail none of us would ever buy from anyone else.
I have a "broker", he actually supplies to a lot of stores in Houston. But I don't always use him.
