Hi, I am looking for a good deal on a princess cut diamond solitaire ring (white gold or platinum).
Budget is $9,000 and was hoping to get as close to 2 carats as possible while maintaining an (I, VS1, Good cut) minimum.
Is this possible?
I looked around and this is the largest princess cut I could find within the 9k range:
www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/princess-cut/1.73-carat-i-color-vs1-clarity-sku-790814?a_aid=dmnd1357
It’s well cut, eye-clean and bright. It’ll be very brilliant.
What do you think?
Thanks for the last link. I saw it briefly with my phone and will take a closer look later after work.
Could you confirm if these diamonds will require sales tax? I am in California.
Thanks for the great help!
The companies are required to collect sales tax in the states where they have their corporate offices and James Allen is based in NY, so there’s no reason why they would collect sales tax in California.
Thanks, I actually talked to someone at James Allen and they said no tax to out of state sales.
I will be making the purchase this week. I think that 1.73 ct stone is the perfect one.
I will play around with different ring options.
How is it that you want the credit for the purchase done?
Sounds great.
Thank you for thinking about us. It is enough if you use this particular email address to make the purchase. It will help us to double check with JA.
