Hi Guys,

I have been researching and looking at engagement rings in stores/online. There so much information it's overwhelming. I have been doing research for about 2 months now.

1. How did you start looking? In store? online? process?
2. Where would you buy from? In store? online? where specifically?
3. What did you end up getting? Was the ring and diamond very different from what you were initially looking for?

My situation/thoughts so far:

A) My budget is around $10-$12k, looking for round shaped, 3 diamond ring. (1 big centre, 2 small sides)
B) I have been to Spence, Lucinda, Birks, Tiffany, Siba, and even Costco. Spence provides the best customer service and actually spend 1.5 hours with me. All other stores seem not to be interested in my business.. probably I am not asking the right questions?
C) I can't decide whether I want to buy online or in store... the prices online is very attractive for the specs.

Learn about diamonds first before buying. How to read the quality and stuff.
