When I was shopping for my wife’s engagement ring I was shown a $12k stone for the center of her setting. It blew me away. But when I was shown a lab grown diamond that was even bigger, better color, and clarity, for a fraction of the price, I couldn’t pass it up. I spent $7k on an engagement ring that otherwise would have cost north of $17k. Like they said in the video, if you have money to blow, spend it how you want. But don’t feel like you’re getting a lesser product when purchasing lab grown diamonds. Fellas, main thing to remember. If your girl thinks less of you because you purchased a lab grown over earth grown diamond, you deserve better. I’ve always said it doesn’t matter if the ring is $100 or $100,000. The metal and rocks don’t make a marriage.

I got a lab grown diamond for my fiancé’s engagement ring and she loves it. We went shopping a while before I purchased it and I made a point to check out a lab grown dealer to show her the price differential, and for her it was actually the size differential that made her love the lab grown diamonds. Rather than thinking about saving money, she liked she could get a way bigger diamond for the same money.

You can literally buy 2-3 similar lab growns for the same amount of money that you would lose on trade in. Labs are just the way of the future and are just going to get cheaper and cheaper.

Not that it actually proves anything but as a sales pitch it has been remarkably successful over the decades since they started it.

She jumped on the better, clearer and bigger lab grown diamond that was $4,000 cheaper than the first one. She constantly tells me how much happier she is and how much more she appreciates the new diamond I got her.

As a Diamond Dealer, I love to sell natural diamonds because I make more money on them. But I pay more for synthetic oil in my car because it’s better. The truth is Lab Grown Diamonds are Better for cheaper! 💎

The only people opposed to lab grown are the same people already deeply invested in earth grown, can't blame them for clinging.

folks please don't waste your hard earned dollars on these lab diamonds. as a liquid asset a lab grown diamond will be essentially worthless after you buy it in the case that you wanted/needed to sell. whereas a natural diamond will maintain it's value in the short term and only go up over time. be smart people, i know it's hard.

I bought my wife a 1.6ct lab diamond. Of course she would have preferred a natural one...but put a natural one that costs the same price next to the 1.6ct one I bought and she would pick the lab every single day!

Mine was made many years ago and my two main diamonds are 1.5 each plus smaller around it, yes they are great quality but to buy now would be a crazy price to what hubby paid from the jeweller I knew. Price wise I would rather have a bigger diamond fantastic clarity and bling for so much less cost with lab grown, it doesn’t take away the meaning at all….that’s just crazy, IMO.

All diamonds half carat and larger should be laser inscribed as to origin (maybe MM and/or NE as man made, natural earth). Currently among dealers, disclosure is honest and forthcoming. The 'problem' will arise from resale if and when there is no marking on the jewel. A universal standard would be very helpful and is overdue. There is a major risk of loss of trust in which the 'earth' diamonds' value will be re-adjusted downward.

Extremely good information about the lab grown diamonds thank you thank you very much

Labs are far from oversaturating the market, they've come down about 1/3rd in wholesale cost as the tech has gotten more efficient, but they'll never be "cheaper than czs" because they still take 6-12 weeks to grow, which costs money, and is far more expensive than the process to grow czs using liquids. Labs grabbing a large chunk of the market has also driven down the price of earth mined stones by a large chunk as well, also about 1/3rd wholesale.
