Hey! I am a first time poster and long time lurker on the site (: My boyfriend and I have talked about getting married for a while now and he told me 2 weeks ago that I should let him know what kind of ring/diamond I want because he knows how picky I am! I tried some rings on at a few stores in the mall and hated them ALL! We have been doing a lot of research online since then and have fallen in love with asscher cut diamonds! I have also finally decided that I want a solitaire setting so that I can spend more of the budget on my asscher and make it the real focus of the ring. My budget is around $3500 (for the setting/diamond) and I want an Asscher that is at least a carat. We have looked at bluenile, rokstok, and adiamor but quickly figured out we need to actually see the diamond we are getting before we purchase it! I really like a setting from James Allen, the 2mm knife edge solitaire, so I will most likely get my diamond from there too. The only thing is they seem to have only a few asschers within my budget and they don't seem to add new ones very frequently ): I chatted with them Thursday and they said they don't add many new asschers weekly, mostly round diamonds. I have looked at exceldiamonds, and GOG too, but I haven't seen much I like setting wise. Any other sites I should check out that have pics of the actual diamonds they sell? I have decided I need to see the actual diamond before I purchase. I didn't realize how different asschers can look from one another. Our budget is kind of low for what I want but I think if I will be patient I can get a nice ring!
