i don& #039;t understand why money value is important.. who cares if he spent a million dollars on her ring, does it mean that he loves her more than the woman who& #039;s husband couldn& #039;t afford her ring? no. boo, . walmart? no thankyou.

It 's definitely possible. Diamond prices are dependent on carat (size), color (the clearer diamonds are more expensive), clarity (diamonds that seem flawless are expensive, whereas diamonds with visible flaws are less costly), and to a lesser extent, cut. If you 're willing to get a smaller carat, or a diamond that 's less clear, you can find one that 's under 500 dollars.The link below explains how diamond prices are considered in more detail than I 'm going into now, in case you want more information. Another thing to note is that wholesale diamond stores tend to be less expensive that retail stores. Retail stores so have sales on their rings from time to time so you might want to check into that as well. You can also check with private jewelers. They often have loose diamonds and all you do is give them your price range and they 'll show you all the diamonds they have that fit into that budget. The ring itself tends to not be expensive, especially if you 're just going with a solitaire so I 'd focus on finding good diamond prices as opposed to focusing on the ring in its entirety. Hope that helps and good luck = )

It is likely you can find a nice ring or even set for that price on Ebay. You can also find really nice rings at Walmart.... About ur other question I don 't think a small ring means a man loves you less but i do believe every great woman deserves a great ring

It 's going to be hard, but with some ingenuity, you can get anything you want these days. Remember that while diamonds are typically expensive, you can mix and match the different qualities to save a lot of money. Often buying a diamond lacking color and clarity can make the diamond much cheaper, but isn 't very noticeable. Look at a site like adiamor.com for a very wide selection of diamonds and settings for an engagement ring, as well as articles on diamond education to help you. Never believe that the more expensive the ring means the more someone loves you. The two never correlate. Spend what you can afford and you are still guaranteed to get something nice. Good luck!
