Takara lab-grown diamond deposit

As our Takara lab-grown diamonds become available, they are added to our site.  The live inventory search page is here.

We offer a notification service - http://betterthandiamond.com/notify - where we will send out emails once a Takara is available matching the request, but they are posted on the site and available for purchase by anyone viewing them.

After many customer requests, we are doing a trial run of accepting deposits, which will reserve the diamond so that it will not be posted out for sale until a week after we have notified the deposit order customer.

This is to help better match customer demand with our production and ensure customers can get the Takara they are after in a timely fashion.

Basic parameters:

1 - A $500 deposit is placed to ensure you are contacted as soon as we have a Takara available matching your request.

2 - Please specify a)Cut type and b)MM or Carat dimensions. 

3 - Tolerances - we can only provide a color range (i.e. D-F). Clarity is typically IF - VVS, but some chance of VS and rarely SI.  We are not able to accept requests for a specific color or clarity.

4 - Once the Takara is available, we will inform you of the final specs and provide a link to pay for the remainder and enter your shipping info. 

5 - These Takaras are covered by our normal returns policy, however cancellations of the deposit orders will have a 5% admin fee deducted.

6 - At this time, requests are to be capped at no larger than 3ct / 9mm.  At such time as we are able to consistently offer Takaras larger than that, this will be updated. Presently our largest Takaras have been 1.5ct.

Please contact us with any questions as this is a new and possibly limited time offering.  We will keep it open for at least a month and fill those first requests and then evaluate if this will be a long term option to continue or not.
