Hi, I have just started my search for the perfect ering. I plan on going into Bailey Banks and Biddle sometime soon to look at their rings. I was curious to know if their prices are set or negotiable. If they are open to negotiation how much should I expect to be able to bring them down? Right now I have my eye on the Ritani Endless Love ering. Thanks in advance!

Any reason for BBB? Or are you open to other shops that might have Ritani rings? I only go in there to window shop, but I'm sure their prices are negotiable.

I'm definitely open to other places. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Deeps I don't know how open they are to negotiating. However, you may want to consider purchasing the stone separately & having someone custom make the setting or find a vendor on here who will sell you the setting. I feel in love with the endless love rb with bezel halo, micro pave band before PS. Once I started doing my research I learned that I can have the same ring made with a top of the line cut stone for a little below the cost or right at the cost BBB was going charge. The stone they include with the ring is definitely not a top of the line cut!

Solomon Bros carries the Ritani settings (I think prices are much better than a chain like BBB but I'm not sure): Check here

When I was shopping for my aanniversary band I went to 2 different BBB's and after selecting what I thought I wanted (ended up with twice the ring) I asked how firm the price was and one place offered me 10% off, the other 15%. I don't think they will/can go much beyond that. Good luck!

Like what the above poster mentioned, when you get the final number ask them how firm the price is and they should knock the price down at least a little over 10%. I'm sure they're making a big profit already and they'll want to keep you happy and have you come back again someday as a customer so they'll do what they can.
