Introduction to the Search for the Wedding Rings

I checked out 3 stores in Robinson's Place Malate for wedding rings.

I went to Robinson's Place Malate yesterday right after my work related seminar. I had no agenda and honestly I really had no plans of going there. I just went around the mall, checked out shops which caught my fancy (mostly shoe and clothes store). While window shopping I passed by Goldenhills Jewelry and decided to inquire about the wedding ring (price, resizing, engraving and payment scheme). I didn't know it can be a little "addicting", I decided to check 2 more jewellers =). I went to Prima Diamond and My Diamond.

Jose and I agreed that our wedding band will be made of whitegold. My ring will have stones in it and none for his.

Here's what the 3 jewellers offered:

GOLDENHILLS JEWELRY
- 10% discount for cash transaction (will work on 20% discount subject to Head Office approval)
- credit card payment allowed
- allows 6 mos. deferred payment through BPI card
- 2 to 3 weeks for re-sizing/engraving
- rings can be customized
- lifetime warranty

PRIMA DIAMOND
- credit card payment allowed
- 2 to 3 weeks for re-sizing/engraving
- lifetime warranty

MY DIAMOND
- 20% discount for cash transaction
- credit card payment allowed
- 2 to 3 weeks for re-sizing/engraving
- rings can be customized
- lifetime warranty

Among the 3 Jewellers; Prima Diamond offered the best price for the ring I liked (18k white gold, with 7 pointer diamonds). I honestly didn't have a picture in my mind as to how I want my wedding ring to look like until I saw that ring.

Uhmm...since this is only the introduction to the search for the ring, I'm guessing I'll have a better picture in my mind soon. =)

  1. Sis,

    You try to get rings during wedding exhibits. They give and offer better discounts.

    Hope this will help.
