QUOTE(matttzz @ Oct 8 2014, 03:36 PM) Nice!!! V nice!! well I go for the quality of the stones not the brand name.I'm planning to propose soon... am looking at Lazare... still not very sure which one to get though...between Lazare and Forevermark. my spouse has a F color, ideal cut, VVS2, 0.51ct stone on plat ring from a online store, wedding ring (eternity band) from T&C (ouch) and a simple plat ring from bluenile.com.

QUOTE(shinoxun @ Oct 10 2014, 04:54 PM) Hi all,been following this thread for a certain time already. and now its my turn to ask some questions as been planning to propose next year. 5k budget if u want a Plat ring that will eat up like 80% of the budget leaving no room for a stone.My budget is arond 4-5k for the ring. Any idea how many carats i can get or any suggestions based on my budget? Thanks. U may want to get white/yellow gold and get a nicer stone. U maybe looking at ~0.3ct, G/H color, VS1 or VS2, excellent or ideal cut. don't know buying online is taxable, but prices are generally better online even after shipping. |

QUOTE(SWIZZ @ Oct 11 2014, 11:05 AM) just a personal view.... U replying to a 2010 post about 4 yrs late.its not like your future wife gonna compare her ring with her friends all the time. so without diamonds placing side by side for comparison viewing, therefore, its physical size & color is hard to tell. i'd say buy the rock with 1st priority on its Size and fits within your budget. normally girls likes it big.... States standard is min 1ct stone, but many shine yellowish or blue yucks. It really depends on individual some quality over size. This retailer down south is extremely popular http://jannpaul.com This post has been edited by patryn33: Oct 11 2014, 12:13 PM |

Some logically induction here.see even u agreed... u mentioned size 1st U lady or u saw many comparing? Trust u base on what? Must ppl trust u? States as in usa, ppl believe the cost of a ring is min 3x ones monthly income b4 tax This post has been edited by patryn33: Oct 11 2014, 09:32 PM |
