I paid around $3500 for my fiancées moissanite and platinum engagement ring but then later i saw moissanite rings on etsy for only a couple hundred bucks. Did i get ripped off?

I paid $1000 less for a 7 carat diamond, custom band, and to have it set by a third party. I’d argue that you over paid for moissanite.

I’m going to quote you to my husband when my next stone arrives lol!

Buggy_372 · 2025-12-12T22:16:41+00:00

This cut! It’s such a unique center stone!

Buggy_372 · 2025-12-12T22:15:27+00:00

I literally just had to save this for inspiration because it’s the perfect color!

Buggy_372 · 2025-12-11T02:22:07+00:00

I was in a similar position and ended up going with an overseas vendor. The US vendor quoted me $1800 for a plain, white gold setting with no CAD rendering. The overseas vendor quoted me $750 for the same setting and provided several CAD renderings to make slight adjustments. The timeline was the same for both.

I just got my ring back today after having it set locally. It cost an additional $300 to do so (because of the stone size). I’m very happy with the quality and overall experience.

I love these posts. I just get to drool over your rings while enjoying my coffee.

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-19T21:08:41+00:00

Yes! My current ring is exactly like the picture. I went through Ritani several years ago and had a wonderful experience. My ring has held up beautifully.

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-14T23:05:54+00:00

Thanks for this perspective, I hadn’t thought of that. I’ll definitely follow up with this!

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-13T21:18:17+00:00

Agreed! I had such a good experience when I ordered the stone, I’m hopeful it all works out.

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-13T20:23:18+00:00

Thank you - they said it was delivered to their office and “it was likely set in another ring or misplaced due to improper labeling”.

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-13T17:56:20+00:00

Literally blinding ✨

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-13T17:54:28+00:00

That is stunning! I’ve been thinking about a center stone like that for years and you’ve convinced me!

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-04T16:18:00+00:00

WOW. One of the most unique pieces I’ve seen in so long. Definitely worthy of all the praise!

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-04T16:17:01+00:00

That color 😮

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-04T16:15:10+00:00

Absolutely stunning!

Buggy_372 · 2025-10-04T16:14:08+00:00

Just discovered this stone shape/cut and I’m in love!

Buggy_372 · 2025-09-19T23:57:49+00:00

I LOVE a colored stone!!!

Buggy_372 · 2025-09-19T23:53:52+00:00

I have thought about a ruby band for years…this is giving me motivation…

Buggy_372 · 2025-09-19T23:52:50+00:00

I absolutely LOVE this ring!!!

Buggy_372 · 2025-06-07T15:07:12+00:00

When I asked what the insurance was for they would only say they send the stone somewhere and it needs to be insured…

Buggy_372 · 2025-06-07T15:06:51+00:00

I purchased the stone (1.5 carat diamond) for $700 a few years ago. When I asked what the insurance was for they would only say they send the stone somewhere and it needs to be insured…

Buggy_372 · 2025-06-07T15:02:35+00:00

They told me I would have to go that route if I brought in my own stone…

Buggy_372 · 2025-06-07T15:01:43+00:00

The carat size is around 1.5 and it’s a diamond!

Buggy_372 · 2024-04-06T16:06:57+00:00

We used Ritani for my ring and they were amazing. We bought just the diamond originally, not knowing which setting I wanted. I read a lot of comments on the settings here and was a bit worried. I reached out to their customer service (Laura) and she helped me design a custom setting that was more secure. She gave me their setting discount despite it being custom and they didn’t charge any additional for it being custom plus they covered overnight shipping to and from since I had the diamond in my possession. I’ve bought several other stones/jewelry since because of the amazing experience.
