I'm thinking about changing my setting to this (the one w/o the halo). Does anyone know if there are any places online that sell it for less than B&M stores? Also, where's the best place to sell my old e-ring setting? It's a custom Signed Pieces custom setting. Thanks!
I''m not sure about selling your old setting...maybe ebay? Mr. Pearlman does resell designer pieces, but I''m not sure whether he''d consider yours in that category or not. You can certainly ask him.
Pearlmans Jewelers carries it for $1995. I'd be surprised if you found a huge price difference on the designer settings as the designers have them set at certain price points. I do know Bailey Banks and Biddle offers like 20% off sales every now and then and if you have one local you might be able to get a good price there. If it were me, I'd trade or consign the signed pieces set with Bill Pearlman and purchase the new Ritani from him. I saw a signedpieces eternity band in his previously owned section a while back, so he'd probably be willing to consign your set, best to call and ask him to be sure.
my girlfriend got her ritani from BBB, she also told the store she found it cheaper online and they said they could give her no sales tax etc and it kind of worked out to be like $100 more than buying it online and now she can take it in to be serviced locally and that meant a lot to her so she bought locally. but it seemed like pearlman's had the best price for it online. i do know that also solomon brothers will typically take some $$ off if you ask them, they did this for me for michael B when we were shopping, i think they knocked $300 off a $2400 setting. so be sure to ask vendors, online and offline what their best price is...then comparison shop. but if taking the ring into the store locally is important to you for servicing or anything like that, then keep that in mind. some people don't care about sending their ring away or similar but my girlfriend liked that she could just take the ring into BBB if there was an issue and they ran interference with ritani and would mail it out for her etc etc so it was just less hassles.
she also got the ritani endless love without halo and loves it!
