Hi everyone!
I've been quietly browsing the engagement ring thread for over a month now, since the boyfriend and I had the marriage talk. So I know exactly what type of ring I want, a simple solitaire with a round diamond and an eternity band as my wedding band. Yes, very Tiffany's-esque. However, I'm not getting a Tiffany's ring... It's out of our price range unfortunately.
Anyway, so after lots of shopping, I've found the rock that I want at my local Shane company. I was wondering if I can get some insights on the rock and if it's a good price or am I getting ripped off? Here are the specs:
1.08 ct
Vs2
G in color
Ideal cut
Priced at $8335
Size 5.5-6
So the price is $8335, but our sales guy says he can knock off $1500 for us. So we'll be paying $6835 before tax. However, it is a bit out of our budget, we're only planning on spending ~$6000 for the ring. What do you ladies think? Any opinions would be appreciated! Like I said, I'm such a noob at these things so not sure how much the future hubby should be paying for my rock. Thank you!!
