Blue Diamond Ring – 10 things salespeople will tell you

Buying a Blue Diamond Ring is not always easy, since you rely on the salesperson in the retail store to give you all the information that you need to make an informed decision. This is why i put together a little list of things that you should watch out for.

If you hear the salesperson say any of the following, you should be wary and maybe even opt to go somewhere else:

- all blue diamonds are natural

- the color does not matter, they are all the same

- the cut is not important

- we do not carry blue diamonds, because they are all fake

- we do not have a loupe (if you hear this one, don’t walk out of the store, RUN)

- you will never see another blue diamond ring (unless it is a natural blue diamond, that’s a lie)

- we only have irradiated blue diamonds, because natural blue does not exist

- blue diamond, what’s that?

- we do not have certificates for our diamonds

- how about a blue topaz

The list goes on and on. There are a lot of salespeople that are not trained, do not care, or simply prefer to lie to the customer in order to make a sale. It is imperative that you arm yourself with enough information, so you don’t fall in a trap.

Having said all that, there are a lot of established and honest companies out there, online as well as offline, that will get you what you want and guarantee what they sell.

I would like you to help me add to the list, so feel free to leave me a comment and i will update the list, as i get suggestions. Questions are also welcome.

Enjoy your hunt for a blue diamond ring.
