Hi, I''ve been looking at a 3 stone ring with princess cuts for sometime now. I"m coming close to buying one (hopefully this week). I have visited many places and found that lose diamonds don''t really very that much in price or quality per price between venders. I have found one vender with a diamond and setting that I like. I live in Chicago, and the vendor is from one of those vendors on Jewelers Row (Simply Brilliant). While I have met with my jeweler several times and trust him, I was wondering if other people have experience with these types of venders and whether they''re craftmanship in setting the ring is good.
This vender is willing to give my a platinum ring setting (with .5ctw sides) for $950 whereas other are charging $1300-1500. I like his style better than others but I''m worried the quality might not be as good. He says he uses 90-95% platinum. What do you guys think.
Thanks
Neal
