Wow ,I am amazed at how informed people are about diamonds. I am really clueless about the subject and need help. My 15 yr wedding anniversary is next year and I think I would like to purchase a new diamond ring. It is not an investment and I am more interested in size than quality. I don't have much money to spend ($2000-$3000 range) and would like the largest stone I can get, but I also don't want total junk either. Can someone give me an idea of what the minimum standards should be in shopping for a diamond? What should I sacrifice in order to get a larger carat size ? Ideally, I would like a round diamond of at least a carat in size. Also, I could not find anything about buying diamonds in the Caribbean. I've read alot about the good deals they have on diamonds there. I will be going to St Thomas next year but will only be there for a short time so I won't have much time to shop. Any thoughts on buying a diamond there?
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions
thanks
Lisa
