It has been my experience the jewellery retail
trade generally work to excessive profit mark-ups. To justify
this the jeweller will point to the value of stock a shop
will need to have invested in. But remember, when you pay
£35+ for a Thomas
Sabo Charm, for instance, it will have cost the retail
jeweller around £10 wholesale, so, in these tough
economic times, there is a lot of discount to be bartered
before you buy, and when a jewellery retailer offers a free
snowflake charm with every order over £75, not only
is the offer worthless, but it insults your intelligence.
And when a jewellery retailer offers free postage, it is worthless
because you can get free postage from every jewellery retailer.
If they don't offer it already, all you have to do is ask
for it. And when you buy a diamond for £3,000 it will
have cost the diamond
dealer or jeweller around £1,000 or less, although,
diamond dealerships will generally have the diamond you have
requested on trust by their supplier when they show it to
you and, should you decide not to buy, the jeweller will simply
send the diamond back so there is no cost or risk to the jeweller,
just an easy £2,000 profit of YOUR money in his/her
back pocket - if you pay in cash, it probably will go straight
in the back pocket! This is common practise and means, for
you the buyer, there is a great deal of discount to be negotiated
on a diamond from all jewellery shops and high street diamond
jewellery traders. At this website we offer quotes on diamonds
with a reasonable profit for our work and costs, which will
mean you'll find our diamonds will cost you considerably less.
I would hazard to suggest that at least £1,500 of that
profit you've just so kindly handed your friendly jeweller
should still be fattening YOUR wallet! So, you have two choices:
be firm with your 'friendly' neighbourhood jeweller or purchase
your diamonds from James
Allen in America for around £1,000 less than you'll
pay here in the UK, because, in the USA profit margins are
not kept ridiculously high by an excessively greedy diamond
market... Remember:
Diamonds in the UK & Europe!
The Big Rip-Off!
On this website you will see links to James
Allen an American Jeweller where you can purchase diamonds
and diamond jewellery safely from the USA. In the UK and Europe
the diamond market is very highly controlled to inflate profit
margins to grossly unreasonable levels. In the USA the markets
are freer and you, the customer, can make seriously huge savings.
The UK jewellers will tell you the diamonds in the USA are
of lesser quality. That is nonsense. Diamonds are certified
for quality, so don't be fooled! Certificates in the USA and
UK are of equal value, thus certified diamonds in the UK and
USA are of equal quality! Buying a diamond from the USA will
give you a lot more diamond carat for your money! And you
know how important size is... ;)

If you are a resident in the Cardiff area, the
best place to purchase Thomas Sabo jewellery is in the Thomas
Sabo shop in the new St. David's shopping centre in Cardiff
city centre or Howell's store in Cardiff city centre. Also
in the Thomas Sabo shop or Howell's, or House of Fraser, Cardiff,
you can view the whole Thomas Sabo Charm Club collection.
