Anyways, great forum you have around here.
to keep is simple and clean
budget 2k-4k max and 4k should cover the everything, apprasial, insurance, tax etc.
girl doesn''t want anything too expansive.
anyways.
what she wants. (I asked wanted to be safe, rather then burned).
Vintage style ring. i.e. something with some metalwork/stylizing on the sides of the stone.
what she doesn''t like... simple tiffany style.
diamond shape ~round.
problem:
most of the vintage style rings i''ve seen in platnium seem to cost about 2k. (OUCH!). really would like the ring to cost about 1K+/- a bit if it includes any small side stones.
an example of what she likes. (its not her face but close.

As you can see the price is 1700, not terriable since then i could get a diamond ~.6 c with a good cut for close to the same cost and get the ring for about 3400. but if i could find something similar for a bit less. My pocket book would love you.
time frame for this is about 2.5 months. which is when i''ll have the full $ amount.
also any one know of a good local dealer, near milwaukee wi. I know chicago is close, and i love chicago, but going to a store there would probably be setting me up for getting ripped off, i''d have sucker all over my head.
as for the diamond, I''m thinking a good cut, white in color (to go with the platinum ring)
and once again a good cut, actually like some of the hearts on fire, or cut above.
Thanks for any help
