nat82 Rough Rock Total Posts: 24 Last Post: 11/30/2007 Member Since: 11/18/2007	hi guys & gals. just wondering if someone could recommend me where to buy a plain platinum wedding ring? (around 2mm for me, and 4mm for my FH) is there any difference between the cheapest and the most expensive one's ? (both plain platinum?) assuming they are both made from the same material ? (platinum 950?) online store will do, but i prefer b&m store so we can try it on first. we're in melbourne - australia. thanks a lot :)

They have lots to try on on site, and then maybe you could try for something similar online (?) as I know for a fact that when it comes to diamonds, they are not as cheap as online.

Facets also has very good prices for plain platinum bands, but they don't have the style and size I want. In general, there can be differences in both the way the bands are manufactured and the metal content itself that may account for price differences. I am not an expert and picked up the following information from reading various pages on the internet, so please take it with a grain of salt! Rings can be cast, forged, or extruded and carved, with varying results in the porosity and strength. The metal alloyed with the platinum also varies. Common examples I've seen are cobalt, ruthenium, and iridium. Mark Morrell has a pretty good page about the different types of platinum here.

There are a few jewelers with online presence that sell Jabel jewelry, but it can be a little hard to track down. You could also contact Jabel directly through this link: contact. Jabel has a catalog online, and if you go to pages 16-18, it shows the various styles of wedding bands they make.

The only thing I was surprised about was the packaging - very basic - but that doesn't matter once the ring is on your hand! I had it engraved and the engraving only looks so-so. I would probably skip that if I were to order another. The customer service was TOP quality.
