I''m fairly new to the whole engagement ring search so forgive my ignorance...I have been looking around and finally found a ring that I like. The problem is I feel that it is a bit overpriced. It''s the Helzberg Diamond Masterpiece 1 Carat Solitaire (http://www.helzberg.com/hdsim/jsp/catalog.do?link=catalog&product_id=1611526&channelId=-10820&rootChannelName=%2FCommerce+Navigation%2F%3C%21--A--%3EJewelry&BV_SessionID=@@@@1352828948.1123030845@@@@&BV_EngineID=cccgaddfflmllemcflgcefkdfkjdffl.0&channelName=%3C%21--A--%3EHelzberg+Exclusives&programId=51098).
The prices are from $7,799 to $9,299 for I/SI2 to H/VS2. I have read in other posts that Helzberg can be overpriced. My problem is I can''t find a setting that I like at a store. I would also like to be able to go look at a ring (as opposed to just buying it online). Has anyone seen this type of setting somewhere else? Zales has something similar in their Zales Diamond Solitaire - a 1 Carat H-I/SI2 for $6999.99 but the diamond sits a little higher (http://www.zales.com/catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?productID=15173123&queryby=c&categoryId=101&pageNum=0&sortType=rank_over+ASC%2c+rank+ASC&newFilter=0&parentSearchId=0&gnFlag=0.
They were also offering a deal ($1,000 off to start with) whereas I have read that Helzberg won''t negotiate price. Any thoughts on these stores/rings or any other ideas?
-Thanks!
