I'm looking for a price estimate on 4 sidestones. Each round F-G color with SI1 clarity. I don't have any details because they are not certed but they are a nice cut. I am buying this in a B&M store so take that into consideration when giving a price. Would it be cheaper over the internet?

I suspect that price for a couple of small (0.1 ct) diamonds will be comparable with the price of shipping. Usually internet vendors work with goods over $800-$1000.

So if the price of your side stones is less than $300 you should probably go with your B&M jeweler.

Oops, forgot the size. They are each 11 points.

Some of the prices I am getting are $1150per carat. If I step them up to vs2 then it is around $1500 per carat. Are these close to a good price? High? Low?

Sounds reasonable.

You can compare with these sources:
