Hello,
So I was looking to upgrade my .74 Princess. When we bought it 4 yrs ago, we paid $5000 for it. IT was:
.74
VS1
F
Good cut
We totally overpaid.
I was looking for a princess around 1.3 and ended up on choosing a Radiant 1.5. It is:
1.54
SI1
J
Medium cut
I pricescoped it to come up with a price and found 1 diamond only. IT showed about $5900.
He was selling for $6000. He took $2000 for my stone so we will pay the dif of $3900 (canadian dollars).
This includes:
- recasting my e-ring (to place my existing channel princesses in the ring. The new center was too big to put in my existing ring, as it was an x-prong head casted in the ring.
- rhodium plating my wedding band and resizing it.
This price included his work and tax. I think we got a very good deal...Any opinions??
