@@jrfr13 Very welcome
I would love to get my ring from Blue Nile... would you use the same filters for an oval diamond? If not, you should make a video about oval diamonds.
We bought a 3ct oval. It doesn’t look like a showroom sample at all. We ordered it July. We haven’t received it.
Ordered from them yesterday. Extremely happy with my purchase. Beautiful ring!
Amazing info, deeply appreciated it. Great job dude!
Great video. I know nothing about rings. About to go watch your other videos.
Thank you so much for the great info! I’d love to see a video on a princess cut.

Very helpful information! Thank you so much!
You are very welcome!
This was an excellent video, thank for all the information. I'm in the market but still full of questions
Thank you for viewing email me if you have any questions!!
This video is such a great tool . Thank you
Excellent review, thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I was looking for these table and depth numbers all night!!!! Can you update your other videos with them?
I really love the part where you describe the different types of girls and go through the rings. The double halo for better presentation is a brilliant idea!
Haha thank you. Yes, double halo for the win!
Your videos are so informative . Subscribed ! If we are looking at cushion cut , what depth , table and l/w ratio should we use in the parameters ? Please advise
Awesome tips and editing
omilu808 thanks so much
Great video, thanks for the great info and the help.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, thank you man
Thank you Zair! Glad I was able to help!
Do you think Astor cut is worth the premium price versus ideal cut?
Love the video thank you so much.
"Let's say your girl does not like the big look. Let's say she likes the dainty cute look. She's a keeper" loving the quote
Thank you! and its 100% true lol
That just means she’s no glamour puss, which also means she’s not going to age well because staying thin and looking good isn’t high on her priority list. It’s the glamour puss that ages well and she’s gonna cost you! You get what you pay for
I stumbled across your video, because I’m researching an upgrade on my Blue Nile Diamond. I LOVE Blue Nile, you are so spot on, they have amazing customer service, it took me 4 try’s to accept what they sent me, and they didn’t complain, or hesitate one bit. Excellent company. Now I’m trading in my beautiful .67CT stone for one that is twice in value, can’t wait to find what I’m looking for. Mine is a round, D color, VVS2 with tons of white sparkle. Love this stone so much, but I’m looking at an oval upgrade. I still need sparkle, and GIA doesn’t grade the symmetry, any advice on that??
Hi ive already watched your several videos!!!what do you recommend for best quality best price diamond ?blue Nile or James Allen?
New subscriber 👌🏼 quick question do you recommend people getting the warranty for the rings?
Thanks for subscribing. Warranty isnt as important as you think and shouldnt have to be purchased it should be standard included. Diamonds dont break and they are one of the hardest substances, only another diamond can scratch it. Companies that give a warranty on stones falling off only honor that if you return every year and religiously check and retighten. If something happens or if there is evidence of damage to ring they will not honor it due to possible user error. Blue nile gives free cleaning and inspectons and offers free lifetime warranty. See this link for info - goto.bluenile.com/BXzEB9.
Hello Osiris, love your videos! Could you make one explaining lab grown vs earth grown, specifically pros and cons! I see lab grown are more affordable, but I have no idea in terms of how they hold value!
I will be making a video soon on the topic. Thank you for the comment Daniel.
Would definitely like to see that too. I know you can get cheaper diamonds if they are lab grown. But I am worried as production increases and floods more the market those lab grown diamonds will be cheaper. So if I spent 10k on a lab grown, in 5 years it might only be sorth 8k and start depreciating essentially is a worry of mine. Also thinking they are more perfect so will cut and clarity still matter for lab grown? @That Guy Osiris
Thankfully from your perspective,experience lesson ,learn a lot ……
VERY INFORMATIVE THANKYOU SOOO MUCH
You are so welcome.
I bought my diamond on-line. As long as you know what you're doing, it's fabulous! I got a 1.34 CT oval, G, VS2, VG, VG, VG for $5000. It appraised (GIA) for almost $10,000. Listen to this good advice!
Great job! Yes sir online is where the savings are at!
Can you please do a video that covers the search aspect of more diamonds such as cushion , princess etc.
Great suggestion. I will do that in soon. If you are in the market to buy and need advice please feel free to email me at infodiamondcity@gmail.com or feel free to take a look at my deals of the week page.
Quick comment on the platinum band. I got talked out of it after talking to a jeweler and he seemed pretty convincing. Afterwards though I realized he probably just deals more in white gold and that’s why he pushed it. I can get a platinum band for only about 20% more than the white gold and it will always maintain its luster. People talk about the patina but I think something aging right along with the marriage it represents is a beautiful thing. I’m a platinum guy all the way.
I think platinum makes a lot of sense especially if the budget allows. Depending on the ring design, the price can double if the ring is a heavy metal design. Simple solitaires have a small premium. Gold looks just as good but as you said it will look the same 6 years down as the gold needs a ridip. Now in 10 years both gold and platinum will get scratched. If you repolish often then the benefit dimishes. Its nice to know it wont be needed if you don't.
Any suggestions for alternate gems/stones for engagement rings? Saffire? Morganite? Opal? Ruby? Any advice?
This is great for people who don't know anything about how to filter results to get something they really want and find the ones that are the best value. I bought a VVS2 1.2ct oval Very Good cut, no fluorescence, in a K color for $3,400. K wasn't my first choice, but the clarity and cut was the most important.
58% depth, 63% Table
@@crusheen Great job
Where do you recommend looking for bands? Would you make a video on bands?
BlueNile has great bands. I tend to tell clients that if you're looking for a traditional band, buy at the same place you got your engagement ring from. If its a specific style that only a few people carry then you are forced to buy at that retailer. Most people fall under the traditional band.
Hi Osiris, you got some nice information here, but i think you missing something how you deal with many other things that are not specified on the GIA certificate, for example luster and light performance, for this last one you need an aset diamond tool.
Excuse me if my english is not perfect.
Platinum is worth the upgrade for three reasons:
1) Less maintenance (set and forget)
2) The metal is stronger which means it will hold on to the stones more effectively, this is important especially for pavé!
3) When gold scratches, metal is removed. When platinum scratches, metal is simply repositioned on the ring (you retain the metal.
Its certainly a great choice. I always say if there is room in the budget go platinum. That doesn't mean white gold is a bad choice., still beautiful and gets the job done. AT the end of the day, both will need a repolish from time to time.
Not to mention some people are allergic to gold and it would suck if you pay 2k for an engagement ring and find out she’s allergic to it. I heard you don’t get that with platinum
One thing I like about Blue Nile (and others, such as James Allen, may do this too) is that you can view/print the GIA certificate for any stone, right on their website, without creating an account, or anything
Yes very transparent, how it should be.
Thank you for videos like this one, you make the online buying process much less daunting. Do you have any experience and thoughts on With Clarity's credibility, customer service, and value?
Ali Meehan thank you! That’s what I’m trying to do, to help people feel more comfortable. Clarity is the new kid on the block. I have been doing research on them and a video and article is coming soon. As of now my two favs due to selection, credibility and value are Bluenile and James Allen.
That Guy Osiris thank you, I look forward to it!
Super video and again great advice. I just bought a ring recently not online but from a store and was able to speak the language and know what I was talking about. I used online to make sure I wasn’t getting totally robbed and decided to pay a little more cause I’m in Ireland and wanted to buy local. Thanks for the advice it’s super advice.
Thank you One Inch Punch! Glad you enjoyed the video. That's smart too! Its tough going online for such a purchase, I hope to ease the pain. Sometimes there are time constraints and people have to buy local. As you stated, you paid more but with knowledge know you weren't completely ripped off. A premium price for convenience.
That Guy Osiris was also nice to be able to bring my mother along and include her in the day and another benefit is that I’m getting a long waitlist watch I’ve sought after for myself too because of the purchase. Blue nile and James Allen are a breath of fresh air. I got a nice balanced ring due mostly to your advice which herself is delighted with. Think I watched all your videos a must for any man before buying a ring online or not. Thanks again. Love the channel. Hope it gets big.
@@chavebomber That sounds like a win win. Mom bonding and new watch :) Super happy I was able to help! Thank you for your support. I will be expanding the channel to other hobbies I am into as well.
Good stuff!
Glad you enjoyed it
It is definitely worth getting the platinum over white gold.
It certainly has its pluses Steven, I will be uploading a video in a day discussing this topic.
Do you have a video or article on Pear Diamonds and the depth etc for it?
Would you purchase from rare carat? Thank you soooooo much for your amazing videos!
GREAT video. I’ve been going back and forth about whether to buy online and after going to a few jewelers and comparing prices I think it’s a no brainer. I do feel bad, the jeweler is saw was such a great guy, but pricing 1 Cr, SI, G color diamonds at over $9,000 when I can get a 1 ct, vvs1, f color on Blue Nile for $6,000 with all the guarantees. I can’t pass up Blue Nile. That’s just too much money.
Thank you and yes keep that money in your pocket. No reason to pay 3 thousand more to speak to a nice guy. Stay at home and have a no pressure sale buying online.
What is your opinion on Rose gold for metal criteria ?
I like the color, but compare to Plat or White gold whats the issue if any ?
Thanks for your videos Osiris! I emailed you last week looking for some advice on a ring. Hope to hear from you soon.
Hey, Eduardo thank you so much for viewing my video and enjoying it don't forget to like&subscribe!! I was going over my email and I could find your name. Email me back again with your name in it so I can get back to you ASAP!!!
@@OsirisDiamonds i appreciate you responding! I just resent the email yesterday using the email in this video's description. Hope to hear from you soon.
Do you know a good place to get a custom setting? I saw a custom ring I fell in love with but nothing close in stores.
hello and thanks for commenting. Custom setting are tricky as they need to be done locally usually. A local jeweller can help as most online stores dont offer that.
Can you post the settings for the other cuts?
How would you adjust your settings for Cushion shape? Especially depth and cut?
Thanks for the comment. Check out my blue nile tips, I have the cushion settings there - www.diamondcityonline.com/tips-for-using-blueniles-website/.
Just subbed!! Got my engagement ring online. Stone is worth $3740. Of course not GIA but certified. My husband's family and family friend was like ARE YOU NUTS??!! They are/were jewelers...so I really would love to get a cushion cut diamond, like a 1.5. The lowest I'll go is SI1. Usually unless I'm wrong, an SI1 the carbon is more on the outer rim so it can be covered. Awesome video.
Usually us Jews go to a diamond district but there is nothing out here...ugh.
Another question...how do I convince my husband that it's fine to buy online and that he will not get ripped off??? He trusts it more in person....
Thank you for the support. Show him my videos. A little education and buying online feels way more comfortable. Ultimately, you can sort through thousands of stones in minutes versus seeing 4 stones per store you visit that often dont have the perfect balance of clarity, color, table and depth percentages etc.
Thanks!
Wow Dayna! Thanks so much, so nice of you!
Hi can you do a vid on brilliant earth?
Hi Grace, thanks for the comment. I tend to find them priced higher so I try not to shop with them.
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi, I have a question. I’m looking at a diamond from Blue Nile website: 1.56 carat, ideal cut, color H, clarity IF for $13.8k. I did refined my search with the same depth and tablet percentage as in your video. My question is the cut. I know the cut is king and I liked this diamond with ideal cut but I know they have Astor cut. Is it much of a difference? Is it better to maybe lower a different area but go for the Astro cut? I’m trying to stay within the same price for a diamond this size but I don’t want to cut conners where it matters. Thank you, loved your videos, super informative.
Glad my videos helped. I will say you don't need IF clarity but sometimes there are deals on those. Astor line has diamonds scientifically tested to assure perfect cuts but the premium is steep. So its situational. Depending on inventory and price difference.
Just found your channel and subscribe. Great videos. My husband and I just bought my engagement ring this weekend at Blue Nile in stores. I won't see it until my husband propose to me with it hopefully this year. Anyways, I love my ring I picked out but I wanted to make sure we picked the right diamond. I'll email you what I got so you can take a look. The lady that helped us was very nice and helpful. My ring (band) is the Channel Set Diamond Engagement Ring in Platinum (1/2 ct tw) for $2,390. My center diamond I chose was a round, ideal cut, H colored, VS2 clarity, 1.40 carat weight, no fluorescent, excellent polish, excellent symmetry for $9,752. Did we pick a good diamond? I orginally went in wanting a G colored or higher for 1.30 carats but decided to lower my color to a H so I can get a 1.40 carat instead. Was that a good choice or no? Thank you for your help.
Just replied to your email. You made the right choice and you will be very happy with the H color. Bigger is better lol. Thank you for supporting my work.
@@OsirisDiamonds Thank you for your input! I appreciate it. I'm super excited for my ring. 😊
which is the ideal deep and table diamond cushion ?
Hi Osiris!! Do you know where I can buy bridal sets?? Do you recommend IGI?
Hi Anne,
I dont know if there is a best place for that. The more common trend is pick a diamond, find the setting you love, and find a wedding band that compliments it. The main diamond is the hardest and most important part. Bridal sets come with specific designs you're forced with. Also, Buying a set doesn't typically provide a discount. So I wouldn't plan my purchase on what place has the best sets rather what place provides the best quality center diamond that you love. Then build your rings from there. Sorry not an awesome helpful answer :(
Oh and I forgot about the IGI question. For natural diamonds, Only Buy GIA or AGS. Only LAB diamonds for IGI.
After watching your video, I purchased a .90 cushion cut, g color, vs1, very good cut, faces up extremely close to a 1ct. I felt very safe purchasing this online because of their money back guarantee. I purchased this stone with setting for $2499. It is a very impressive ring. I do however plan to trade in for my 2ct dream ring in a couple years. In the meantime I have this gorgeous ring to wear. 🤣. Of course I haven’t told my husband my plans yet.
Haha awesome Patricia! Just our secret lol Enjoy your beautiful ring.
Please make a video about sapphires I hope you see this message
Thank you for the suggestion.
Great informative. In the market with $5000 budget. I looked at blue nile. Do you do consultations? I really need help :)
Does Blue Nile provide a Certificate with their diamond purchase?
I wish they would set in silver that's what I did with my wife's wedding ring
Hello, I have some questions about buying diamonds? 1. I'm looking for a diamond size around princess shape, 3 carats, E color, Clarity VVS1 or VVS2. On Which Polish, Symmetry, Fluorescene, Depth %, Table %, L/W ration do I need in order standard size, color, price diamonds?
Hello. I just ordered a ring with princess cut diamond from blue nile and was wondering if they sell chipped diamond too? I was worried because the diamond I ordered was price marked down and from Stone aglo diamond check its fair price was much higher than what I really paid to Blue nile. It’s excellent symmetry and polish, f color, vs1.
Very informative. Would I be able to email you a couple videos of an oval? I’d love your input. Thanks
Hi Ana, you can always email me. Though links to the diamonds are much more helpful than just a video. infodiamondcity@gmail.com. Thank you!
If I were to give you the stats on mine, would you give me your opinion?
Is there an ACTUAL difference between buying a loose blue nile diamond or a Barmakian loose diamond for instance?
Hey great video. I was thinking on getting my girl a 1.21 carat princess diamond Astor ideal cut, J color VS1 clarity on a Monique lhuilier butterfly diamond engagement ring platinum and a riviera pavo diamond ring. What do you think?
Thank you. I would go Si1 I color if you can.
If ring is rose gold, is color K acceptable? I've read the colored gold will make the diamond look colored anyway
What about emerald cut?
How can I contact you about a diamond I want to purchase from blue Nile
I am looking to get a new ring for my 50 th wedding anniversary in a couple of months. I am think of going to the LA jewelry district any advise on where to shop ? Thinking of Blue Nile also but husband is so Skeptable about buying online.Any advise is appreciated.
Blue Nile is a great company. I don’t have local recommendations. I suggest if he truly want to see it in person. She pricing in the stores then go to my link www.diamondcityonline.com/tips-for-using-blueniles-website/
This will give you a guide to ideal settings. Then compare diamonds. It’s a trusted company.
I bought my girlfriend her ring from Jane Co and I got her lap grown as the. Rep recommended as I got a higher and bigger diamond in carat and size and more sparkle ✨️
Great job! Love labs
Hello, for a radiant cut with a ratio of 1.45 there’s no ideal cut! Can you help me?
That was not your dogs that was my soul escaping when you are going over the price and quality of the stones n metals
Hi, may I ask if the diamond size is around 0.4-0.5, is ideal cut still necessary?
I think you should go up to a 1 carat, it is only 1-2k more and you get more for the cut.
were would be a good place to buy accent diamonds .08 - .15 ? I would like to get around 40
Hi Osiris,
I now to get one just about 2-3 carats. Can you please help me to get one in good price and quality? Thank you.
What’s the max one should go over budget for a deal in carat size they might deem worth it?
Really depends on your budget and expectations. I have seen people go over by 200 and then go over by 10,000.
Wait so it wasn't the vs1 you were going to mount.
Need to get one just about 3 carats
Can u help me in a good prize good quality
What about a cobalt chrome ring? It looks nice to compare
There are so many options these days which is great.
@@OsirisDiamonds your videos are pretty good! I would love to see some videos about different types of metals. I can't find a lot on TH-cam that goes into depth about cobalt, tungsten and other metals. I probably don't even know what's used or what my options are
@@thebestpaintballer Great suggestion. I will be working on a video like that soon.
Question if you find the time, appreciate your help in advance. I'm on bluenile looking to buy earrings. Would you say an "Astor Ideal" cut w J color on a .9 carat earring better or worse than a "very good" cut diamond with G color?
It depends on what diamond shape you are talking about. Assuming its not round since you only gave me very good or astor options. Earrings can go lower in color and typically are lower in color. Feel free to email me specifics infodiamondcity@gmail.com
@@OsirisDiamonds Yes they are princess cut. Sent you an email with the link to the earrings. Supposed to be picking them up tomorrow. Thanks in advance again for your time and any input is appreciated
Blue Nile has a store very close to me.
Thats a nice advantage. You will have to pay taxes since they are located in your state. Still better priced than local which comes with tax anyway.
Hi I love your videos! Honestly the most informative and thank you for helping with picking out the perfect diamond. I prefer the James Allen site. Now I cannot find info on oval diaminds. Would you be able to do a video on picking an oval diamond! A lot of the videos made are for round. I tried finding the link for oval on your site and I could not find it. I am looking for a 18k yellow gold ring. I'm Canadian and my budget is $10 thousand. The setting I found on James Allen costs essentially $1800 . So about $8 thousand Canadian left to spend on the diamond. Thank you for the help!
Thanks so much for the nice message. I appreciate the kind words. I will make a video like that very soon, in the meantime, email me at infodiamondcity@gmail.com- I will guide you.
@@OsirisDiamonds thanks for the reply. I sent an email as well already and have not recieved a reply yet. A video would be great!!
Is there any green emerald pink purple all in one diamond?
If there is, it will be a collectors item.
Good morning! I emailed you on some advice hope to hear from you.
I agree! Excellent video. I also sent you an email. Looking forward to hear back from you!
Hello, can we apply the same filters to lab grown ? Please respond
Thanks
Hi. Yes you can!
@@OsirisDiamonds you’re the 🐐 thanks !
Can you do a Blue Nile video about how to get a great deal on a three diamond 💎 engagement ring?
Great idea Marisol! Thank you
James Allen vs. blue nile. Which do you prefer?
Hello and thanks for your comment. I prefer the one with the best diamond. Let me explain my answer. I see them as equals. They both have small nuances of pros/cons but they both consistently get me the best prices, quality & selection on the internet. SO I judge this in a case by case basis. I look at both sites and compare my findings. There are times I find a winner on either or. SO the week I find my favorite cut carat color combo on JA, then that's my fav at the moment. But the second BLUENILE shows me a better deal I wont hesitate the buy it. Hope that helps. I have guides to both on my website to help you narrow down your selections and compare your findings. Sometimes, one has a ring you like better and that's the deciding factor.
That Guy Osiris thank you!
its normal if they ask you to pay by an email link?
Looking for reasonable 1.50 carat diamond princess cut earrings please help sooo much to this diamond business!
Send me an email at infodiamondcity@gmail.com
Could you please help me with Pear-Shaped Diamonds? Thanks!
Hi Ester, yes of course please feel free to email me infodiamondcity@gmail.com
Something that I didn't like about the website is that when it comes to rind size, the biggest is 7.5, and my girlfriend is a 10, ant tip on that issue???
Im sorry to hear that. I think if you press the chat icon, have a chat with a representative. I am sure they do it, it maybe a custom price as the gold varies in cost so they dont want to place an inaccurate price.
Hello I have a question! Would it be worth to have a moissanite instead of a diamond because of the price?
Hello and thanks for the comment. Its very hard to say. Budgets are real and diamonds are expensive. In the end I feel you will be happy with any choice. Traditional versus alternative options are very subjective. Lots of options these days.
would love to see a video on oval or get your help via email for oval. Thank you!
Please!
⚠️ warning ⚠️
They do not make it like a showroom sample. They outsource making the setting in somewhere in Asia. Super cheap quality
I cannot believe we spent 50k for it. It looks like a toy. I
I swear by Blue Nile and James Allen
Ever hear of Natalie Diamonds? Just purchased seems a lot cheaper (less expensive)
Hi and thanks for the comment. They don't allow you to see or choose the diamond. Thats why its cheaper. Its also certified by a horrible company which means that its easily off two shades which makes its way cheaper. The difference in a 1 carat center stone with an H color si1 that's really a J color I1 is massive. I don't recommend sites like this.
Only to find out it’s fake
@@jeffbishop8291 it ended up being a fake diamond?
That Guy Osiris yes
That Guy Osiris no color in this diamond! It was nice! FAKE! but nice.
Nah, DEF color VS1 or better .89 or larger Ex Ex Ex no florescence and it will be beautiful. Go to a family fine jeweler and your looking 3800 to 4500 on larger end of a carat. This will be beautiful
Thanks for the comment Jmac. In a diamond under a carat, its even harder to decipher color and clarity. The larger you go the more things show. a .89 D color or G color will look the same. A VVS1 vs a eye clean si1 will look the same. I understand that some want higher quality, to each their own. I suggest maximizing size which is the greatest impression you will get by lowering some of the standards. An SI1 H color 1.50 carat has a stronger impact than an F color VVS1 1 carat. Cut is the most important.
Are “Stein Diamonds” a good seller??
I have no idea who they are.
