Where can I find the cheapest diamond engagement rings that are still good quality?
First do some research on diamonds. Go to stores that sell the really expensive stuff and take a good hard look at all of them. Decide what cut you’re looking for (princess is very popular, but I like the way the brilliant cut looks better), decide what carat you’re looking for. The most affordable rings are going to be around the 1/3 carat (for a single stone). Decide what band material you want. Yellow gold and White Gold are generally the cheapest you get. Decide what mount you want. The cathedral mount is very traditional, but there are some funkier ones that might better fit your style. Now, be willing to compromise a little. You’re looking for affordability, so you need to be willing to negotiate. Go to a diamond resale store, most larger towns have a few. Take a look at a few different rings and ask what they have to offer. Never let on that any ring is perfect (even if it is). They are going to start high when it comes to price, you’re going to start low. In the end you meet in
