10 Grand?<\/h2>\n

\nSavings?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nYou bet… It’s so easy to save that much money on diamonds (and in this case BIG diamonds<\/strong>), if you shop and compare before you buy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\nCompanies like James Allen<\/a> and Blue Nile<\/a> are the biggest and best diamond dealers<\/strong> on the net. They will save you hundreds and thousands of dollars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For example:<\/h2>\n

\nThis 2 carat diamond here that Helzberg is selling<\/a>… You can actually save 10 grand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\nThis diamond shown below, which can be between 1.95 carats and 2.11 carats, is huge and rare<\/strong>, no doubt. It has a pretty average clarity for such a big diamond; I1. I1 means “included<\/strong>“, and it will have<\/em> eye-visible inclusions<\/strong> (Most large diamonds do). The color is listed as H-I. Meaning, it could be an H, or it could be an I (you won’t know which until you buy it). <\/p>\n

\nThe cut of this stone is a specialized cut called “Radiant Star”<\/strong>. It has 145 facets on it, versus the standard 58 on a round brilliant cut diamond. More facets give you more flashes of light<\/strong>, but those flashes are smaller<\/strong>. So you don’t necessarily get more sparkle<\/em>, just different sparkle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\nAlso note that they don’t list symmetry, polish, fluorescence<\/strong>, nor do they show you the exact diamond you’re buying… They only show a stock photo<\/strong> used for many of their diamonds. <\/p>\n

\nAnd lastly, their diamond is not certified either<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Take a peek at this 2 carat:<\/h2>\n

\n\"Helzberg<\/a><\/p>\n

(See their diamond HERE!<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\nNow, heading over to James Allen<\/a>, I searched for the exact same quality<\/strong> (or as close as I could since Helzberg didn’t have all the info listed).<\/p>\n

\nI find this GIA certified 2.05 carat diamond with I1 clarity and H color<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Take a peek:<\/h2>\n

\n\"James<\/a><\/p>\n

\nAnd for an I1 clarity diamond, it looks very clean<\/strong> (Impressive for that clarity grade). It faces up just like much more expensive diamonds<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

\nThe color is H (fine white<\/strong>). The cut is “excellent<\/strong>“, the polish is “excellent<\/strong>“, the symmetry is “excellent<\/strong>” (all the best grades you can buy), and it has zero (none) fluorescence<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

\nAnd as you can see, James Allen’s diamond sells for $9,120<\/a> (the price at the time of this post).<\/p>\n

TEN GRAND LESS!<\/h2>\n

\nSure it’s a loose diamond and Helzberg’s is mounted<\/strong>. But you can choose a solitaire mounting for $200 and up HERE<\/a>…<\/p>\n

\nIt’s still a massive savings<\/strong> for a massive diamond<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\nPlus, you end up getting a much higher quality stone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Blow your mind?<\/h2>\n

\nIt shouldn’t.<\/strong> James Allen<\/a> and Blue Nile<\/a> have the lowest prices<\/strong> on loose certified diamonds anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n

So before you buy…<\/h2>\n

\n(Whether it be a large diamond<\/strong>, or a regular sized diamond<\/strong>…)<\/p>\n

\nCheck them out FIRST:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
