Giangi Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,530 Last Post: 10/29/2006 Member Since: 1/23/2003	Are the sides 0.82 each or 0.82 total (about 0.41+0.41cts)? So... I would say $1,300 for the setting, $22,000 for the center stone and $10,000 for the sides (0.82 each), or $2,800 if they are 0.82cttw. So the total would be (approximately, of course) about $33,300 for 0.82+1.75+0.82cts or $26,100 for 0.41+1.75+0.41cts. _____________ Omnia Mea Mecum Porto. Giangi

Edit: I find it curious, now that I'm a "Cut Rock" level , how many people try to find 'market price' for an entire e-ring with the barest of information as if you could look it up in one master matrix or plug it into one easy formula. I wish it were that easy. VH (aka GroomZilla) --- This post was brought to you by the Church of Cut Quality. Note: I am not an expert. Just a friendly neighbor.

verticalhorizon Ideal Rock Total Posts: 840 Last Post: 3/24/2006 Member Since: 3/9/2004	I hope I didn't offend... it's just that diamonds, e-rings... totally not a simple thing. This forum... even further from being simple. The more info the better off you are. Also, if your appraiser verified that what you got is what you wrote... you got some high quality rocks. The price you paid is uncertain, but at least you didn't pay BANK and get lousy stones right? VH (aka GroomZilla) --- This post was brought to you by the Church of Cut Quality.

But clearly, there's right to be a little peeved if you feel you paid too much or were misled if you didn't have enough information prior to purchase and THEN discovered PS.com.

squirerad Cut Rock Total Posts: 120 Last Post: 6/25/2004 Member Since: 4/5/2004	californiamom, you have exceptional (and quite similar) tastes. I have to say that those are very nice stones but you can certainly drop your cost $7000-9000 by going with lesser color (like F) and clarity (VS2/SI1) and still be "colorless" and "eye clean". In addition, you can also get better performers that are more likely to produce greater brilliance, fire, scintillation, etc (i.e. H&A AGS0s). Just my .02 but seems like you may already have your eyes on those beauties... so cost is not an issue to you.
