Is this ring overpriced or not

[AlainR]

Hello,
I am going to Amsterdam in few days and looking to buy a diamond ring. Not sure if this is the right price or not. I know that this company is very well known.
Its not much for a diamond but looking to know if I should look elsewhere

Here is the ring:

They don't say who has graded the diamond. A 0.35 carat G, SI1 or SI2 diamond graded by GIA costs about $575-600 US dollars. You can get an 18k white gold solitaire setting like that from James Allen for $460.

You can definitely do better with that amount of money, even with import duties. Where are you located?

Thank you for your answers.
I live in Europe, Romania. Not sure on the taxes and fees but will take a look.

Have you thought about Blue Nile? You can select your country and currency and you will also be able to see the VAT that will be applied. A 18k WG 6 prong setting with a GIA-certified ideal cut, 0.35ct, G, SI1 round brilliant would cost 863€ (including VAT and insurance fee for Romania). Not sure if there would be any additional costs but you can email or call them.

Exactly this!

Amsterdam mostly buys their diamonds in Antwerp or India and resells them. Most of the actual cutting for the Amsterdam diamonds is in Antwerp. They are not that far apart, you might consider taking a day and swinging on over to Antwerp if you are looking for diamonds.

Thank you all for your replays. I thought it may be overpriced but then again you only do it once...
Thanks again.
