Rules to follow when purchasing diamonds online:

 

A good rule of thumb to always follow is that if a deal is too good to be true, then it  probably is. Here are a few good tips to follow when purchasing a diamond online:

 

-          If you are planning on shopping on an online store, make sure you do a little research into the company you are planning on buying from. Look into there return policy and if possible, read testimonials from previous buyers. Some online stores may be near you. It might be worth your while to make a short trip to see what you are buying, and mort importantly, who you are buying from.

 

 

-          Always shop around. Looking in a few places will give you a relative idea what the competitive price should be for your diamond. Knowing what the market price is for a certain diamond will help you spot possible scams.

 

 

-          If possible, check out a company’s history with the BBB (Better Business Bureau). The BBB provides information on over 2 million business and organizations. You can also read consumer complaints and/or praises.

 

 

-          If you plan on buying off of a auction site, such as EBay, we recommend reading the sellers past history and taking into account the sellers feedback ranking
