Guys, could you guys give me some suggestion which one to choose from? Budget about ~RM4k, RM5k still acceptable

These are the selection;

Wah Chan
0.37 ct H VS2 - RM 3230 without casing, with 18k white gold casing is about RM 3930 (GIA)
0.38 ct G SI1 - RM 3160 without casing, with 18k white gold casing is about RM 3860 (GIA)

Diamond and Gold by Poh Kong
0.3 ct G VS2 - RM 3999 (GIA)

My Diamond by Tomei
0.24 ct F VS1 - RM 3999 (Le Lumiere Cert)
0.3 ct F VS1 - RM 5499 (Le Lumiere Cert and GIA)

I haven't look into any other brand yet as i just started the "hunt" yesterday

4k to 5k, you can get 0.4 ct already from wah chan.
0.3x ct is still below your budget.

Yes, it is indeed below. But as long as the price is about 4k, I'm quite okay with that. An in 0.38 is almost close to 0.4ct.

then just get the cheapest one possible.
vs1 and vs2 - for untrained eye, probably you need magnifying glass to see the flaw.
si1 and si2 - sometimes it depends on your luck, check it properly first.

but the colour h and g is not really colourless.
recommend to get d,e,f only if you want to put into white gold.

if you do not care about the gia cert, you can go to those shops in sg wang to compare the price, sometimes they are cheaper.
just that the diamonds there you do not really know if they are using d or e or f due to no cert.

I think i can get slightly cheaper than the price you get.. do you need my help to check? tongue.gif

Wah Chan not that reliable for quality lo

If you got limited budget why you dont try wholesaler wo?

RM7k can get 0.5ct for GIA CERT!!!! Most important is LAB CERT not RETAIL CERT.

ALSO NICE DIAMOND must must have hearts and arrows and no fluroescent and make sure it is not OLD STONE- CHECK DATE!!!

They got so much more choices. Worth every bit of your money somemore best quality lo.

You can try ask for quotes for GIA Diamonds from Ms Khoo 0123272110. Her showroom in Plaza Mont Kiara
