Between 2007 and 2008 the price of a diamond from the top range of color, clarity, cut and carat went up by over 50%.
As diamonds in larger sizes become increasingly rare and valuable, any easily visible and readily understood pricing system has been difficult to establish. Martin Rapaport produces the Rapaport Diamond Report, which lists prices for polished diamonds. The Rapaport Diamond Report is relatively expensive to subscribe to, and as such is not readily available to consumers and investors. Each week, there are matrices of diamond prices for round brilliant cut diamonds, by colour and clarity within size bands, and also other shapes. The price matrix for brilliant cuts alone exceed 1,400 entries, and even this is achieved only by grouping some grades together.
Diamonds are without a doubt a very very popular choice of investments. The problem with buying diamonds, you need to know what you’re doing or trust the person you’re buying from.
