Guide to Buying a Diamond: DOs and DON'Ts
Jewelry For Everybody
An engagement ring is often the most expensive and valuable piece of jewelry a woman owns. For this reason, it is essential that it is purchased from a trusted seller. The ring must be of a certain quality, with a proper certificate and warranty.

DON'T
Buying loose diamonds from a "dealer".
Many people make the mistake, especially when traveling, of buying supposedly inexpensive "bargains" from dealers or "friends of a friend". Often such stones are of much lower quality than promised or even fake!
Buying diamonds or engagement rings without a proper certificate.
A certificate guarantees the ethical origin of a diamond and provides detailed information about its quality. It is therefore of great importance that the diamond is accompanied by a certificate.
Blindly hunt for bargains
If an engagement ring is offered at a low price, there is a reason for it. Some online stores advertise engagement rings with the word "diamond" when in fact the stone is a white sapphire, moissanite or Swarowski stone.
Buy without checking your return options.
Always check the warranties that come with your order. Online stores are required by law to offer a return period of at least 2 weeks. However, some get around this requirement by including illegal clauses in their terms and conditions. For example, some stores state that the ring cannot be returned if the packaging shows signs of having been opened!
Buy without checking online reviews
If you are buying from an online store, (learn about the benefits of doing so) first make sure that the store has good reviews and that they have also been published through an independent platform.

Buy your engagement ring online
Buying online can be up to 40% cheaper than buying from a brick-and-mortar store, assuming the engagement rings are of the same quality.
Configure your own engagement ring
Configuring your ring yourself not only allows you to create a custom ring, but also maximizes your budget.
Choose the right ring style
The engagement ring will always be the proof of the love and commitment you have for your partner. But sometimes the style you choose is not the one your partner would have opted for.... It's best to choose a ring that matches your partner's style and taste.
