Using a Diamond Broker

Filed Under (Engagement Rings) by Danielle on 08-06-2008

If you’re looking at the prices of diamond rings and are just staggered by the price, then you’re not alone. When my husband was looking at diamonds for my engagement ring, he was astounded at how much a local jeweler was charging for a mediocre diamond. He wanted to get me a near flawless diamond, and the prices in the jeweler’s shops was just too crazy. So, he did what he always did, and that is to find a better way. So, if you’re looking for some quality diamonds at a fraction of the cost, then why not look into finding a dependable diamond broker.

What is a Diamond Broker

A diamond broker is a person who sells diamonds at a fraction of the cost of local retailers.

I don’t understand the full set of logistics behind it since I have never been a diamond broker, but basically it’s a single person or a small company who sells diamonds wholesale. This is great for you, the buyer, because you can find some real quality diamonds at a fraction of the cost you’d find in any shop that sells diamond engagement rings.

Are Diamond Brokers Trustworthy?

There are always a few bad apples in every bunch. For every five or ten trustworthy diamond brokers, there is probably one or two whom you can’t trust farter than you can throw them, and that’s a shame. My husband got the name of a trustworthy diamond broker that was used by a friend of his, and contacted her through email and phone. She was very trustworthy, timely and had some great prices for her products. She even had the GIA report so that we knew we were getting a real diamond, and not something created in a labratory or something.

The diamond broker that my husband used to buy my engagement ring was totally professional throughout the entire process. She understood that he was pretty cautious about paying that much money for the item, and tried to make him feel at ease. The ring turned out so beautifully that we even went back to her for my wedding band and my husband’s wedding band. In the end, I have a beautiful, nearly flawless diamond wedding ring that is totally unlike anything else I’ve seen.

Of course, always be sure to do your research when shopping for diamonds, and choosing a diamond broker. Make sure that they have a good, solid reputation for treating the customer right and sending a quality product. My husband has passed on the name of our diamond broker on to his other friends and family members shopping for diamond enagement rings, and they’ve not only used her and loved her, but have sent her name on as well. It’s worth looking into, after all, it saved my husband several thousand dollars, and all my friends had ring envy.
