Hey all,
First I would like to say I appreciate all the information this forum. I stumbled across it a few weeks ago. I have found a few options at Helzbergs on an engagement ring - I know that B&M stores aren't the fan favorite around here. It definitely doesn't help my GF put one the rings in the store and fell in love.
The first one is the big one - a Radiant star solitaire. I know it's the whole marketing thing - but this diamond seems over priced.

The second is different from others - a pear diamond solitaire. This is a much different setting than a lot of others have - it looks fantastic.

They both have quite the price difference - and if I went for a pear diamond I would get a better quality diamond. I know I can do better.
Any comments/tips/suggestions/negotation tactics etc would be helpful. I really appreciate it.
