Even when you factor in the price of getting your diamond set into the ring or other jewellery of your choice, you will get a much better product for your money if you buy online than if you go directly to a high street shop and purchase the ready-made item. By buying your loose diamond online and having it set by the online retailer or by your local jeweller, you will save yourself a considerable sum of money.

Our advice is given freely, and only you can choose your seller, whether you buy online or from a high street jeweller. However, we have much experience in buying and selling diamonds, and can honestly say that the quality, service and value for money offered by the biggest online retailer, Blue Nile, cannot be bettered in our opinion. We have chosen to be affiliated to this excellent company rather than try to compete with them. Visit the Blue Nile website, spend some time there doing research before you buy. You will be amazed at the wealth of information given about each diamond, the fascinating diamond education section, How to Buy a Diamond, and the wide choice of settings that are available for your chosen diamond. Don't just take our word for it - go there and see for yourself !

What's more you can Build Your Own Jewellery at Blue Nile, and when you're satisfied you have chosen the diamond(s) and setting(s) of your dreams, you'll get Free Delivery and 30-Day Returns at Blue Nile!

The price of a diamond varies hugely depending on the four Cs of Carat, Colour, Clarity, and Cut. All of these factors have a bearing on the beauty and brilliance of a diamond, but what many people do not realise is that even a diamond with M colour, I1 clarity and average cut can still be a lovely gemstone, and unless a diamond has been independently assessed by a trained gemologist, then the grades claimed by your average seller are likely to be way off the mark ! All Blue Nile diamonds come with a full GIA or AGS report. These are the two best diamond labs in the world, so you know exactly what you are buying. With a purchase as important as your engagement diamond, peace of mind is priceless, and it comes as standard with Blue Nile!

At Blue Nile, we’ll help you find the perfect engagement ring, certified diamond, or gift of fine jewellery at an outstanding price. 30-day returns & free delivery on every order.

Thank you for visiting our site and remember when browsing the web for your diamond or diamond jewellery - if the price looks too good to be true, then it most probably is.

Best Wishes
