Hello again everyone! Just to mirror what is a very common theme here on the boards... thank you so much for your help and abundance of information! It truly makes buying an engagement ring a pleasure, not something you dread doing. I''m very excited to finally make the purchase and ask my girlfriend to marry me. I think after spending more time than I should on these boards I''ve become a little obsessed myself at finding the perfect stone- possibly more obsessed than my girlfriend!
Anyway, I think I''ve decided that I want to buy both the stone and the setting from Whiteflash (they must LOOOOVE this website with all the good press they get). So how does the actual buying process work? I don''t plan on getting the ring insured (the whole thing will come to around $2500), although it would be nice to have some sort of certificate showing the authenticity of the ring. Since I''m not insuring it, would they still ship everything off to an independent appraiser? And then does that appraiser actually mount the stone on the setting? I''m very confused by the actual step-by-step process. If anybody could walk me through, from the moment I hit "purchase" on the website to the time the ring arrives at my office, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks so much in advance!!
