Hello,
I am going to pay for a diamond from BG. I wonder should I wire transfer to get 3% less than credit card. I am buying from oversea and it is my first time buying diamond online from US. The amount is roughly USD7,000. Is it prudent to do so? i really hope that there would be no issue to make me return the diamond. That would be more trouble from abroad within only 15 days.
BG will ship through Fedex and I will have to pay 5% import duty and 5% VAT on top of that. Is there any buyer experiencing these steps? Is there an occasion that I would make a bank transfer, and the Fedex couldn't process and deliver the diamond to me.
Has BG ever discounted price more than the amount they quote on the website? Considering high tax I will have to add, I really want to get in without going too much above my budget.
And, I think that I will get the diamond mounted in a local shop? Then I can examine the diamond first as well as to avoid some tax money for the setting? Any thoughts ?
Thank you all!
