For their size, diamonds sure can get expensive!
Below, we answer some common questions we get about diamonds and their pricing.
Are diamonds priced based on their 4 C’s? (Cut, Clarity, Colour, and Carat)
This is a great question, and the short answer is … kind of. The four C’s help determine a price range the d iamond will fall into, however, two diamonds matching exactly in the 4 c’s could differ in price by thousands of dollars. The diamonds final price is determined by how beautiful the stone looks in person.
How does MariGold Price Diamonds?
We work with our network of suppliers and bring in diamonds that will best fit your preferences and budget. The diamonds are priced at a small percentage over wholesale, this covers our time and shipping cost. If you don’t love any of the diamonds we bring in, there is never any obligation of fees.
What are recycled diamonds?
We believe in rescuing chipped or poorly cut diamonds. Working with a master diamond cutter we have the diamonds recut into the proportions that will bring out its beauty. We then professionally grade the diamond and keep it in our store inventory.
Since we don’t have to buy diamonds from a supplier it allows us to sell the diamonds for an incredible value.
What can I do with my damaged diamonds?
Although diamonds are nearly impossible to scratch, they can be chipped. If this has happened to your diamond you have several options. We offer a diamond re-cutting service. After inspecting your diamond, we would give you advice on whether it makes sense to have the stone re-cut. From there, we would send the diamond to a professional diamond cutter, and working with him, have the diamond recut to maximize its beauty and value.
