5 Keys to Getting the Best Deal

5 Keys to Getting the Best Deal

On Your Next Diamond

1. Use a Diamond Broker

Using a diamond broker is just plain smart. A diamond broker uses their leverage, when it comes to dealing with diamond dealers to get you the best price possible. They use their influence and experience when negotiating price. Diamond brokers are able to make the transaction smooth for you and the dealer. They guarantee payment to the dealer and guarantee a refund for you should you change your mind.

2. Get an Education

You need to spend some time getting educated. A diamond broker can help give you this education. Your diamond broker should be a trained gemologist that deals with diamonds on a daily basis. They should be able to educate you in every area of purchasing a diamond. No matter what shape diamond you are interested in, the diamond broker should be able to help you determine the best possible cut so the diamond you decide on exhibits the maximum brilliance and sparkle possible.

3. Compare Pricing

Do your homework. Compare different internet diamond retailers to make sure you are getting the dealers lowest price. You will find that many internet diamond retailers offer the same diamond for different prices. A good diamond broker will help you by checking the most popular sites so he can guarantee you are getting the lowest advertised price.

4. Negotiate

Once you decide on the diamond you want, your broker should negotiate on your behalf with the dealer to get you the lowest price possible. A good broker will even give you a guarantee that he has achieved the lowest price for you.

5. See your diamond in person before purchasing

It should never be necessary for you to make your purchase prior to actually seeing the diamond. A good well established diamond broker will most likely have a relationship with a store near you. This store is where you will be able to sit down and see the diamond you have selected. The store’s representative should be able to answer any questions regarding the diamond and your mounting of choice.
