“Is this diamond jewelry worth it? A good deal? The best deal?”

How to search this site to save up to tens of thousands of dollars at trusted diamond retailers, vs most any Costco, Kay, Jared, Zales, etc., ring you’re considering

Built-in search functionality allows you to find any Costco diamond jewelry that I’ve covered here. Just type “Costco” [or whatever store’s name] + “item number” into the search field below.

For example:

  • Costco 1352626
  • Kay 161303805
  • Jared 161305507
  • etc.

Where to find a jewelry “item number” at various stores

Costco: It’s under or near the title.

Kay: It’s under Product Details

Jared: It’s under Product Details

Zales: It’s near the top of the page

If all else fails, your eyes are glazing over looking for a product number, just text-search the page for “Item”. Also, be sure to open any dropdowns. It’s unusual, but item numbers can be hidden in dropdowns.

Not finding an article here about the Costco, Kay, Jared, Zales, etc. diamond jewelry you’re considering?

People come here to find out if a piece of fine diamond jewelry at a traditional brick and mortar store is worth purchasing there.

Sometimes they are. More often, in my personal research, they’re not worth it.

Although I’m creating a comprehensive collection of price and quality comparisons based on hard data, I still don’t have every item from every store covered. Ha, and I never will. Such is life. But I’m determined to cover the most popular.

So you can skip the wait! You can just email me:

Follow the easy steps below to get a custom article for free and avoid being overcharged by any of the popular brick and mortar stores:

  1. You Email me at howtoshopforadiamond at gmail.  Include a link to the ring you’re looking at.
  2. I will do my utmost to answer personally. I also will try very hard to post an evaluation / price compare of the diamond jewelry you’re looking at. 
  3. You save up to tens of thousands of dollars. (You can see the proof in all the articles in this category.) You get a better ring, one that you love.

Now you see these articles make dreams come true, share & link for good karma. ;)
