Diamonds, besides being a girl’s best friend, are some of the most expensive precious stones. It is important to know what you are looking for when considering diamonds engagement rings. These tips will help you get the best bang for your buck.

1. Never buy the first thing you see. Those white gold diamond engagement rings you like will still be there in an hour. If you buy impulsively, you may regret it later due to price, style and quality. If you have any doubts about the product you’re buying, just wait. The resolution will become clear.

2. Ask about discounts for cash. Credit card companies charge about a 1% tax on the store every time a credit card is used, racking up billions annually. Many reputable jewelers prefer to deal in cash, and some take cash only.

3. If you know what you are looking for, and a salesman is showing you inferior products, tell him. This will alert them to the fact that you are experienced in jewelry sales and they will be less likely to try to take advantage of you. It is helpful to do some preliminary research about the four C’s of diamonds: cut, clarity, color, and carat.

4. If a product is presented to you as of extraordinary quality and low price, be aware that you could be dealing with synthetic jewelry. When you see heavily discounted jewelry for sale and it seems too good to be true, it usually is. You never know, so it’s better to be safe than sorry.

5. Stick within your price range. Do not be coerced into spending more than you intend, and do not tell jewelers how much you intend to spend because they will automatically charge you that price.

6. Certificates that come with a diamond allow you to compare weight and quality. Certificates do not include the price of the diamond.

7. Ask to see the diamond in natural light. Fluorescence can make a more opaque diamond look clearer and a yellow diamond whiter, factors which can dramatically increase the cost of a stone.
