Hi, does anyone know how often diamond prices go up? Is it every year or every few years that prices increase? I have my heart set on a 2.75-3 carat ring in the future & am saving up for it now & just wondering if I'm saving for nothing, i.e. maybe would be better to buy on loan if prices are going to inflate tremendously over the years.

You may have a hard time finding one year with flat diamond prices at all. On this forum there have been a few price waves during my time hanging around, and this has not yet deterred new posters from comming for a relative bargain compared to things found offline. Now, you can track industry news (Rapnews, Professional Jeweler) for the longer term trend, if there needs be one given these are comandeered shocks. Otherwise, the new cut branding (GIA, AGS, others to come ? ) is a new factor added to the usual price rise, if you are interested in anything branded. I do not know what you are looking for, but there can be some distance between the average and your find. As far as I can tell...

1/2 the price rise comes from diamond dynamics 1/2 comes from US$ dynamics Garry Holloway FGAA DipDT |

The supply and competition for smaller diamonds has kept the market flat for a while. Larger diamonds have jumped. Who knows what will happen in the future. Buy a diamond when you are ready without regard to market speculation. You will likely take a loss on resale regardless so don't get too uptight about pricing.
