Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anybody could comment on what the cost would be for a custom ring wax for a channel set wedding band to hold 6 stones, and the same exact setting to mount a head for the center stone. This would be done in white gold with all the stones coming out of my original band and e-ring.
I priced what it would cost to have a custom channel set band 6 stones .20 each (stones belong to me) and an additional channel set band to accomodate 6 stones and the head for an oval. All the stones are being taken out of my original band and e-ring and it is all to be done in white gold. The price I got was $1,700 for the metal and the setting of the stones. To me that price seems very high, but I have never had a custom ring done before and have not had up ring ever upgraded. My rings in question are the ones in my avatar.
The store wants $700 up front for the wax with two revisions allowed and then 50 percent upon approval of the wax before actually setting the stones.
Thanks in advance to everybody!
