How can I ensure Im getting the best value for the money?
Before purchasing jewellery it is important to remember that gold, diamonds and gemstones are rare and expensive to mine. Firm industry guidelines ensure that diamonds, gemstones and gold are valued according to current market prices. Sales tax, market forces, craftsmanship, grading, quality and weight of jewellery are all taken into account when determining a value. Visit a knowledgeable, ethical jeweller who can assist you in making a wise purchase. Always ask a jeweller for detailed written quotes and shop around before making a final decision. A CJA member is an excellent choice.
