aprilko Rough Rock Total Posts: 2 Last Post: 7/18/2006 Member Since: 7/18/2006	I bought a gorgeous ring from Osterman Jewlers. It is almost 2 carat, a bunch or round diamonds all over. I bought it for $2400 last october. How much do you think i could get out of it?

How much do you think i could get out of it? $2400 or $24,000 ? it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone.

Unfortunately, you won't get much reselling a ring that you bought retail. You can look on ebay and watch what similar rings sell for. ~~~ When in doubt...don't.~~~

mrssalvo Ideal Rock Total Posts: 16,856 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 1/3/2005	Date: 7/18/2006 8:44:32 PM Author:aprilko I bought a gorgeous ring from Osterman Jewlers. It is almost 2 carat, a bunch or round diamonds all over. I bought it for $2400 last october. How much do you think i could get out of it? do you have a picture? diamond settings can run $2400 easy. Is the setting and the stone a total of 2 carats or is the center stone almost 2 carats? you can normally expect about 1/3 of what the ring is worth in a resale transaction.. ETA: ok, so it's got a lot of little diamonds and totals almost 2 carats? I'd still like to see a picture and you can still expect to get about 1/3 of the value... ----------------------------- A deal is only a deal if you are getting exactly what you want.

belle Ideal Rock Total Posts: 10,287 Last Post: 4/3/2008 Member Since: 11/19/2004	oh i get it now a bunch of round diamonds totalling almost 2carats. WHEW!! i was thinking the same thing df was... an almost 2carat center for 2400. THAT would be scary! at any rate, mrssalvo is right. you can expect about 1/3 if you are lucky AND find the right buyer. a ring is only worth as much as someone will pay for it! best of luck to you.

When I reread it, I understood what she meant as $2400 and 2 ct. solitaire would not work together! ~~~ When in doubt...don't.~~~
