Comparing Prices of Loose Diamonds Online
If you have started the daunting task of shopping for diamonds
online, you have probably discovered how difficult it is to
figure out who has the best price for similar stones. Going from
site to site, running individual searches on each one, then
trying to compare results in several different browser windows -
sound familiar? Sounds like a pain!
There are consolidated shopping search engines out there and you
may have used those when looking for the best price on some
other products, but those search engines have a major weakness
when it comes to diamonds. Shopping for a diamond requires
additional details that generic shopping search engines are not
able to display. If you can't at least see the cut, color and
clarity of diamonds side by side, then the search results are
useless. You can't compare apples to oranges and expect to
figure out which is the better deal.
Wouldn't it be convenient if there were a comparison search
engine designed specifically for loose diamonds where you could
search by shape, weight, cut, color, clarity and price? Then you
would see a list of matching diamonds from several online
vendors and you could quickly see who has the best price for a
1.50 carat, H-VS2 round diamond with Ideal proportions. That's
not too much to ask, is it?
Well, now there is such a search engine - and you may be shocked
by the results. But first, I would like to share a dirty little
secret of the online diamond world with you. Did you know that
the diamond inventory you see at one online diamond vendor is
the same as many other online vendors? How is this possible -
these are competing companies, so how can they be selling the
same exact diamonds? Simple - they don't have any inventory!!!
This is how the online diamond world works - Retailers get lists
of available diamonds from wholesalers around the country. Those
wholesalers give the retailers a cost price and the retailers
decide how high to mark up each diamond. The difference in price
between retailers can be as much as $10,000 for a large diamond!
The retailers will then post that diamond to their online
inventory - the exact same diamond, same shape, weight, cut,
color, clarity, table width, total depth and measurements - but
the price you pay will be different at each site! When you
decide to purchase that diamond, the retailer notifies the
wholesaler and that diamond is removed from inventory and is no
longer available to any other online retailer.
So how do you find the best price for the same exact diamond
without spending hours searching through results from dozens of
web sites? Simple. We have developed a loose diamonds price
comparison search engine that shows you available diamonds
that match your criteria from multiple online vendors. One
search will yield results from around the web and you can sort
the results any way you like. Give it a try and you will be
amazed at the differences in price for the same exact diamond!
Good luck in your search.
