Some of you may recall this THREAD where I was trying to decide on a setting for my 2.47 F IF Asscher. Below is the setting I decided upon.
I sent the image and some specs to both Whiteflash and Leon Mege. Here are the quotes:
WF: 0.50 ctw (+/-) F/G VS diamonds from 9 to 3 o''clock
Platinum $2325
Leon Mege: 0.8-1.4 ctw F/G VS diamonds from 8 to 4 o''clock
Platinum $5140-$5620
I was VERY surprised at the difference in price - $2800 to $3300 more for the LM setting. This is at least 120% more than the WF quote.
I realize that LM does handmade pave, not cast like WF. I also realize LM quoted me a price for more diamonds/pave work than. However is the price difference justified?
I need a reality check here. Does this price difference sound reasonable?
