Common Diamond Swindles
When it comes to diamonds, there are many tricks to avoid. Most cons are minor, but there are some major ones that come up from time to time concerning the buying and selling of diamonds. Tricks happen simply because most individuals who buy diamonds "for whatever reasons "don't know that much about diamonds. Therefore , they are easily mislead.
Jewellery stores like to show their diamonds in bright lights. Lights make diamonds shine. Ask to see the diamond in a different, darker sort of lighting also. Jewelry also stores frequently run 'fluorescence ' tricks to varying degrees. Referring to a diamond as a blue-white diamond is a scam. A blue-white diamond sounds extremely unique and special, but actually this type of diamond is of lowered quality "although the jeweller will try to make you think you are getting something special.
A common sting that most jewellery stores participate in is the Carat Total Weight scam. The tag on the piece of jewellery, generally a ring, only states the total carat weight of all diamonds in the piece, instead of listing the total weights separately for each diamond. This leads consumers to believe that the primary diamond in the piece is basically larger than it is. Ask what the total carat weight of the center stone is. Also beware of fractions. Jewellery stores are permitted to round off diamond weights. This indicates that if the jeweller tells you it is a carat diamond, it is probably between and carat "but nearer to.
Some truly underhand jewelers target those that need assessments on diamonds that were given to them as gifts or that were purchased elsewhere. They are going to try to tell you the diamond is worthless, or worth less than it essentially is worth "and offer to take it off your hands or trade it for a miles better diamond, together with the cash to make up the difference. This is called low balling. Get a second, third, and even a forth opinion before taking any action.
Jewelry stores frequently run 'fluorescence ' swindles to varying degrees. Talking about a diamond as a blue-white diamond is such a scam. A blue-white diamond sounds awfully special and unique, but in reality this kind of diamond is of lowered standard "even though the jeweller will make an attempt to make you believe that you are getting something special. Jewelry stores like to show their diamonds in bright lights. Lights make diamonds shine. Ask to see the diamond in a different, darker sort of lighting also.
Another common dirty trick is to switch the diamond you have selected and paid for with one of lower standard and value when you leave it to be set in a bit of jewelry, or leave a diamond ring to be sized. The only way to get round this is to do business with one dependable jeweller. Avoid jewelers that you have not done business with during the past.
There are lots of more scams that jewellery stores frequently pull on naive buyers. Just use your best judgment, and purchase your diamonds with the utmost care and consideration.
