6 Reasons to Buy a Diamond Engagement Ring Online

While you might be thinking that it is crazy to buy something as substantial and important as a diamond ring online, the truth is that there are a lot of excellent reasons for you to do so… Buying a diamond engagement ring online is not only cost effective, it is also convenient and enables you to get the best value for your money!

More in-depth Diamond Grading Information:

Without a doubt, you probably found our web site while trying to learn more about diamonds and diamond grading. Most of our clients started out simply searching for diamond grading tutorials after having a less than desirable experience at their local jewelry store, which made them decide to research diamond quality before completing their purchase.

The reality is that online diamond dealers like Brian Gavin, who specialize in high quality diamonds of extremely fine make, tend to provide much more detailed diamond grading information than you’ll get from your local jewelry store. Our in-depth tutorial on diamond visual performance provides much more detail than the average Diamond 4C’s pamphlet that you’ll find sitting on the counter of most brick and mortar jewelry stores, and it’s only one of the diamond grading tutorials available on our web site. We’ll not only teach you all about diamond proportions, but we’ll also teach you about hearts and arrows patterns, how to interpret the colors of an ASET image, an Ideal Scope image, and everything else there is to know about diamond cut.

Higher Diamond Quality for Lower Prices:

Once you start to explore our inventory of Brian Gavin Signature and Brian Gavin Blue diamonds, you’ll quickly discover that we offer the highest level of diamond cut quality, at prices that tend to be significantly less than you’re likely to find at your local jewelry store, that is if they even carry diamonds of this cut quality… Brian Gavin Signature round diamonds exhibit a crisp and complete pattern of hearts and arrows, and are graded by the American Gem Society Laboratory (AGSL) with an overall cut grade of AGS Ideal-0 on their proprietary Light Performance grading platform, that puts them in the Top 0.001% of the annual production for round brilliant cut diamonds!

Larger Selection of Engagement Rings:

It might seem like your local jewelry store offers a wide selection of diamond engagement rings, but if you really look carefully at the layout of their display cases, you’ll probably discover that what they offer is a limited number of engagement rings which have been spread around the store in ring holders which are designed to take up more space in the display case, so less looks like more…

The reality is that the selection of diamond engagement rings which you’ll find online is practically unlimited, at Brian Gavin Diamonds we offer a broad selection of engagement rings which includes our own exclusive custom designs, plus we have access to designs offered by all of the major companies which tend to supply a lot of retail jewelry stores… and of course the majority of our designs are available in platinum, white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, and even palladium. I don’t know whether we offer the largest selection of engagement rings to be found online, but we certainly offer an extensive selection that features all of the popular designs of diamond engagement rings! And we offer custom jewelry design services which incorporate state-of-the-art computer aided design (CAD/CAM) and our skilled jewelry artisans will set the diamond in your engagement ring on the premises.

No High Pressure Sales People:

Don’t you hate walking into a jewelry store “just to look around” and feeling like you are being pounced upon by the sales person working behind the counter? When you shop online, you’re able to wander around the web site and look at whatever you want, for as long as you want, without experiencing any sort of sales pressure whatsoever. You can contact us if you have a question, or if you’d like assistance selecting a diamond or engagement ring, but other than that you won’t be bothered. And you won’t have to make small talk about the weather and come up with excuses about why you’re not ready to buy the ring right now… how about now? What would it take for you to buy the ring today? Yea, that kind of thing… the last time I walked into a brick and mortar jewelry store at the local mall, it felt more like I’d wandered on to a used car lot.

Convenient Hours of Operation: 24/7

Feel like shopping for engagement rings in the middle of the night? Don’t feel like getting out of your pajamas? Not a problem, we’re not going to judge you for it… One of my best friends told me the other day that she surfs the internet when she can’t sleep at night and cruises Brian Gavin’s Pinterest page just to see if there is anything new that she might like more than her engagement ring, apparently after five years she’s thinking that it might be time for an upgrade!

By the way, it’s fine if you want to shop Brian Gavin Diamonds for engagement rings while you’re at work, we won’t tell your boss… just remember to clear your cache at the end of the day.

Easy Returns and Money Back Guarantee:

This might surprise you, but most retail jewelry stores do not offer any sort of inspection period or a return policy for diamonds or engagement rings… once you buy it, it’s yours. But the majority of online diamond vendors, including Brian Gavin Diamonds, offer inspection and money back guarantees which are quite generous, so that you can order a diamond online with the peace of mind of knowing that you can return it for a full refund if you don’t like it for some reason…

Given all of the advantages presented by the opportunity to buy a diamond engagement ring online without any of the hassle and inconvenience of having to drive around from store to store and deal with pesky, high pressures sales people, who don’t seem to know anything about diamonds or diamond grading, I honestly don’t know why anybody would consider buying a diamond the old fashioned way…
