    Diamond Rings

    I went to Emphasis Jewellery today to check out how much it would cost to buy a diamond engagement ring and was quite surprised at how much they were, e.g.:

    $15.6k for a 0.41 ct, G, VVS2
    $16k for a 0.41 ct, H, VVS1
    $12.7k for a 0.31 ct, G, VVS1

    Are these average prices or is there anywhere better I should be looking to find similar for cheaper? Any help would be appreciated.

    Look at the smaller independants as opposed to the chains and you should get better prices.

    Also avoid the touristy areas such as TST and Causeway Bay as well as prices are usually more there.

    Those prices look about right to me.

    Try Ellis in Stanley, he does great work. No guarantee on the pricing, but he won't be ripping you off. Phone is 2813-0445.

    Might also want to try the various internet diamond guys to get an idea as to price.

    Check out Excel Diamonds and lots of satisfied customer reviews. Barry and Judah are both very helpful.

    I am not sure if this is too late, but by no mean you are paying a fair price for these kind of diamond.
