Whiteflash is a super ideal cut company. The prices will be more expensive by 20 to 40% compared to generic GIA diamond as super ideal cut requires carat weight to be sacrificed for a better shine.
If you are aiming for top quality diamond then it makes sense to look at super ideal cut. But if you are not very particular and just want a diamond ring, then you should just go for GIA diamond.
Actually there is always this misconception that buying diamond overseas will be cheaper. In fact, the local jewellers (those with GIA listing online) are now very competitive that even the biggest US online player, Blue Nile is not that cheap.
For example a GIA 0.3 carat H VS2 3EX None with starting price of 18k setting:-
Baemont : RM2,069 + RM1,399 (setting starting price) = RM3,468
Diamond & Platinum : RM2,170 + RM900 (setting starting price) = RM3,070
Lavin New York : RM4,050 (inclusive of simple setting)
Zcova : RM2,180 + RM1,650 (setting starting price) = RM3,830
Michael Trio (Singapore) : RM2,274 + RM1,584 (setting starting price) = RM3,858
Blue Nile : USD 421+ USD 600 (setting starting price) = RM4,850
*Very important to look at setting price too as some will charge cheap for diamond but high for setting (ie Blue Nile).
Of course, this is a simple search based on 4Cs, without taking into account the type or location of inclusion, the actual proportion etc. But you get the idea. All of them is cheaper than Blue Nile.
Hi, thanks for your listing on all the engagement ring company in Malaysia as currently I am surveying on engagement ring.
Going through your list on these brands, I managed to find out Diamond & Platinum and Lavin New York is having the cheapest price among them.
With example of GIA 0.3carat H VS2 3EX and None Fluorescence with 18K settings:
Diamond & Platinum:

Lavin New York:

Is Lavin New York a good place to visit?
As I had told that they have physical diamond on hand, and I am able to see the diamond which listed on their website on my own eye and not only checking on the spec on the paper itself.
I believe that it is important to see on the physical diamond before I make any purchase on the internet (since it is something that expensive and meaningful)
Can anyone give me a suggestion on which one to go for? stars:
