What's wrong with buying diamonds online? You'd get more for your money compared to brick and mortar stores.

Agreed!

OP - as long as you educate yourself on what to look for first (the ladies on the jewellery sub-forum here on TPF are a mine of information if you need any help) you can get some fantastic deals on diamonds/jewellery online.
 
Mixed answers, but thanks everyone! I'm going to think it through, I'm swaying towards Chanel but my family and friends are alot more suppprtives about a ring, they don't understand designer handbags especially not ones that cost as much as Chanel.
So mixed minds!
But I think if il buy my diamond ring online from diamond manafacturer or bluenile, you can save alot. :)

Also peruse articles and threads on pricescope.com. They're very helpful.

At the end of the day, you should be choosing what makes you happy. If your friends and family don't like your choices, it won't kill them.
 
I'm defo going to end up with both, but which one this year.... I'm thinking Chanel, it kill me of I waited and had to pay extra hundreds, I guess the bling can wait awhile. Although diamond ring would look good while holding my Chanel lol
 
Yeah, you need both.

I'm not a fan of either TBH (I know, weird), but get the exact Chanel you want, and the exact diamond ring you want. If you haven't picked out the perfect ring for you, take more time. Get one that you cannot live without and that you will wear at every opportunity. I personally would go for something more unique than what I might find at Blue Nile.

Blue Nile has a ton of different kinds of diamonds. "Unique" comes when you choose the setting.

Haha very true,very true.

Iv kind of already decided what style ring I want, havnt decided on carat size.
But if I get a diamond it will be a halo style ring, with the central diamond (I won't compromise on cut and colour so they have to be the best)

Chanel flap will be jumbo caviar in gold hardware :)

If you are definitely going to get both then I say Chanel. You said it yourself, their price increases are crazy and your will have to pay so much more next year. No amount of inflation busting income increase can catch that rate.
 
DIAMOMD RING!
* Diamonds are our best friends! *
The diamond ring will accompany you much longer than a bag. It can even became a family treasure so you'll give it to your daughter. What a great tradition your family may get!
