Top Things To Know About Buying Engagement Rings Online

Buying an engagement ring online has its advantages. With instant access to thousands of products in varying price ranges, you save time and money. Once you’ve made a selection, the ring is shipped to your door, ready for you to pop the question. Although purchasing an engagement ring online is convenient, it’s a sizeable investment that means the world to you. Ultimately, you want to ensure you get it right. Continue reading to learn more. 

 

Set A Spending Cap

 

You don’t want to get so caught up in the glitz and glam that you end up breaking the bank to purchase an engagement ring. Having a spending cap in place can prevent you from maxing out. Don’t forget to factor in things like sales tax and shipping costs. Write the amount down and keep it near you as you shop. 

 

Have Some Ideas In Mind

 

Shopping for engagement rings online is supposed to save you time. However, there are literally thousands of styles available for purchase. You could end up spending hours, days, or even weeks trying to sift and sort through each product to make the best selection. Therefore, you should have a general idea of what you’re looking for. 

Consider factors like their existing jewelry collection, personality, and style. If you’re having a hard time, there’s nothing wrong with asking a close friend or relative to assist you. At the very least, try to pinpoint the type of metal and stone you’re most interested in purchasing. As you browse the internet, it can help you hone in on the appropriate style and features. 

 

Determine Ring Size

 

There’s nothing more frustrating than getting the wrong size engagement ring. Not only does it mean your significant other will have to wait to show it off, but it also means you have to get it resized. Whether the ring is too large or too small, you’ll have to pay to get it customized to fit. Making an exchange is also time-consuming and costly as you’ll have to pay for shipping and wait for it to return. 

Do yourself and your partner a favor and get their ring size. You can use a ring they already have, ask someone they know, if you don’t want to risk ruining the surprise. 

 

Compare Prices, Quality, And Services

 

As you search for the best place to buy an engagement ring online, ensure that you compare the price, product quality, and services before making a final decision. Let’s say you find a beautiful three stone engagement ring you love available at three different stores. Review the product description to get details on the type of metal and the color, cut, clarity, and carat of the stone. Next, compare any additional services like free cleanings, returns, and shipping. You should also check the product warranty. 

 

Check Out The Vendor

 

There’s no shortage of online vendors offering engagement rings for sale. Unfortunately, not all of these establishments are legitimate. You don’t want to provide personal information and invest thousands of dollars only to learn that it’s a scam. Recovering your money is often a long process (if it’s recovered at all). 

Before making an engagement ring purchase, do your due diligence on the vendor. Check the company website for crucial information like a phone number and address (verify this information by making a call or doing an online search). Then, check reputable review sites or the Better Business Bureau to see what previous customers have to say about the company, product, and services. If what you find is favorable, then you’re safe to make an online transaction. 

Finding an engagement ring in the past meant traveling from one jewelry store to another, browsing their inventory until you found the perfect one. Thanks to modern technology, you can pull out your smartphone and instantly be routed to thousands of ring styles that suit your needs and budget. As long as you keep the advice listed above in mind, you should have no trouble purchasing an engagement ring they’ll treasure for a lifetime.
