How To Make Buying Diamond Jewellery Online A Pleasant and Safe Experience

Buying diamond jewellery has always been expensive. Even if you do manage to get a bargain, it always seems more than you can afford. If you want to buy discount jewellery online there are now many ranges of diamond jewellery that are highly affordable; what is more, there are so many that you might find yourself spoilt for choice.

It seems like a definite yes to buying discount jewellery online. However, do the lower prices mean less quality? It is not always the case, but you should definitely be careful when shopping for discount jewellery online.

The Pros Of Buying Diamond Jewellery Online

When you buy discount jewellery online, you will notice a significant price difference between what is offered at most local jewellers and what is offered in most online jewellery stores. Buying jewellery at these value prices is probably the biggest draw to discount jewellery online.

Another plus is that you can have the jewellery delivered to you. If you do not have the time to go jewellery shopping, then looking at discount jewellery online will save you plenty of time. You can order in advance of a special occasion and be sure that it gets to you in time. It all sounds perfect, so what is the catch?

For many jewellery buyers, the biggest single reason to buy online is not the cost but the range. At All Diamond, we carry thousands and thousands of lines, all well photographed and with clear descriptions.

No high street jeweller could hope to maintain a similar range in stock. You would probably feel quite nervous about spending a long time in the shop poring over jewellery trays and asking assistants to give you a close look at their stock.

The Downside Of Buying Jewellery Online

The downside to buying discount jewellery online is that you cannot try on the jewellery or get a close look at it until you have it delivered. Sometimes that can be too late, and you see that it is not what you wanted, or it doesn't suit you or whomever you're giving the jewellery to.

On the other hand, when was the last time a high street jeweller ever said, 'yes, take it home, try it, make sure you like it and bring it back if it isn't quite right for you'? At All Diamond, and some other online jewellery stores, that's just what you can do. We give you 30 days to return almost anything we sell for exchange or a full refund, no questions asked.

Another downside to buying discount jewellery online is that you cannot inspect the quality of the product before purchase. You must trust that the seller is being honest and committed to making sure that all products sold are of the highest quality. That is a reasonable concern, but there are things you should do to reassure yourself.

1)    Always buy diamond jewellery that comes with an independent diamond certificate. We work with GIA, the foremost, most reputable diamond grading laboratories in the world.

2)    Check the Trustpilot ratings for any online jeweller before making a purchase.

3)    Look out for online diamond jewellers who are members of the British Jeweller's Association, National Association of Jewellers as we are. We have a long family history in the diamond jewellery business as retailers and for our design skills.

Precautions You Can Take When You Buy Diamond Jewellery Online

One of the things you should do before buying discount jewellery online is to carefully read the terms and conditions. Is it possible to get a refund if you do not like what you see or feel that it is just not what you wanted? Is there a clause that does not allow exchanges and returns? If so, you want to tread very carefully before buying.

You can see our terms and conditions here: https://alldiamond.co.uk/pages/terms and make sure that we do business in a comfortable way for you.

Take a moment to check the online jeweller's Trustpilot ratings. If the retailer does not have independent client ratings, then be cautious. Likewise, if ratings and reviews are suspiciously high – only five star ratings or they seem to have been written by the same person, again, be cautious.

If you are not sure how a piece of jewellery will look on you, you should try on similar items. If you are buying a gift, try and look at the person's jewellery and find something in a similar style. There is nothing worse than buying a gift that clashes with a person's taste completely.
