Olive you must share how much he ends up quoting you!

My guess was $500-ish because it its just a simple band with some engraving, and the $1475 price was WITH "designer" mark-up.

The ring he made me has 1.01 ctw G-H VS diamond melee and 6.6 grams of solid platinum and it was at just a little more than a third the price of the designer piece it was inspired by. I'm serious!

So, that's why I guessed around a third of the $1475 band...

The the non-designer pieces he's quoted for me he has consistently said he can do for about half or a little less than half the retail price.

So, that being said, I'd revise my guess to a range of somewhere around $500 t $737.50.

No biggie if I end up being off, but that's my guess!

I know other jewlers must hate his prices but we love them!

He did write back but of course I failed to include what metal I wanted. So...we have to wait until he writes back. Sorry LOL

That ring is amazballs! LOVEEEE!

(can't let Newby see it, cuz I have a feeling he might beg me to find something like that in tungsten, and as well all know, tungsten is a fidgety metal with little possibilities!)

I know, right, Kat? I'm sort of intertested to find out the price too for myself because I've been wanting to upgrade my hubby's band too. I've been trying to get him to let me get him a diamond men's band but he's not a diamonds kind of guy. This looks right up his alley though =)

I feel kind of weird putting the price up here, but I think with so many people interested in ordering it can't hurt.
He came back with $975
