Freddy’s Diamond

A Fairytale Story called Freddy’s Diamond

Once upon a time there was a noble man by the name of Freddy. It seems that Freddy was in love with the fairest lady of the land and her name was Princess. Freddy and Princess had been in love since the day they met many years ago and Freddy wanted to marry his fair Princess almost from the start, however he had a big problem. Although he was a noble man, he was just a humble blacksmith for the Royal family and he really did not earn very much money. He knew the love of his life did not really expect very much from him except his never ending devotion. You see, she had assured him many times that their love was not a love born out of material wealth, but a true and lasting love born out of trust and mutual respect for each other. This is why Freddy adored her even more and wanted more than ever to express his love for her with the biggest sparkling diamond engagement ring she had ever imagined. Unfortunately he had a big problem because he had no idea just how expensive diamonds can be.

Fresh with a burning desire to please his fair maiden, Freddy set out on the adventure of his lifetime to find the biggest diamond in the kingdom. His first stop was at the local village jeweler that he heard about from one of his friends. After browsing through the jewelery cases in search of the perfect engagement ring, he was stunned to find out that he was only able to afford a very small diamond. How could this be he asked himself? My precious Princess deserves more than this little diamond! He asked the jeweler if their would be any engagement ring sales coming up so that he might be able to buy a larger diamond. To Freddy’s surprise, the jeweler said that the engagement rings were already discounted and on sale for the cheapest prices he could offer. Freddy tried not to show his disappointment as he pondered to himself, "If all diamonds are this expensive, I will not be able to buy the large, sparkling diamond engagement ring that I dreamed of placing on Princess’s finger on our wedding day." Freddy was heart broken.

That night he decided to go to the local pub and seek out his friend so that he could ask how much he paid for her engagement ring set. Sure enough he found his friend at the pub celebrating with his fiance. When Freddy was able to speak with his friend alone, he asked him how much he had spent. He was shocked to hear that his friend had spent almost $9,000 for her Platinum Engagement Ring Set with a 1 carat center diamond. "Where did you get that kind of money?" he asked his friend. It seems that his friend had the good fortune of winning $10,000 in a recent jousting match. Freddy was again heart broken because he did not know how to joust and he did not have any relatives that could lend him the money to buy their new engagement rings. "What do I do now?" Freddy asked himself. Disappointed, he went home and went to bed.

The following weekend Freddy decided that he would travel to the neighboring village to see if there were any affordable engagement ring sellers. He searched around every corner and stopped in every jewelry store throughout the entire kingdom, only to grow more disappointed with every stop. He spent several days searching and searching, only to discover that he could only afford a 1/2 carat diamond. He couldn’t even afford the white gold engagement ring setting that he had his heart set on.

Just when Freddy was about to give up and go to the village pawn shop to see if he could buy a used engagement ring, he heard a story about a man that saved thousands of dollars by purchasing a clarity enhanced diamond engagement ring online. Even though his parents taught him that when something seems too good to be true it probably is, Freddy decided to look into it anyway just to be safe. It seems that there was a new invention called the internet. Freddy had never heard of the internet before but was amazed when he started browsing online for an engagement ring for Princess. Although many of the prices on diamonds were less expensive than the prices in the village jewelry stores, they were still out of his engagement ring budget. Since Freddy was determined to buy the engagement ring that he had always dreamed of giving to Princess when he proposed, he kept searching the internet. After all, it was so convenient to browse through all of these engagement rings online in the comfort of his home.

After searching online for affordable diamonds, Freddy finally found the website he was searching for. "How appropriate that it was called Engagement Rings By Secret Diamond", he thought. He discovered that he could easily afford the huge diamond that he had always wanted to buy Princess. Now his only trouble was deciding which beautiful engagement ring to choose. He found many styles that he had never seen before. New styles and designs that he liked even more than the one he saw from the fancy overpriced designer. After asking many of Princess’s friends for their opinions, he finally picked one & made the purchase online with his credit card. He couldn’t believe it when he found out that he didn’t even have to pay the king’s high sales tax. It was so easy and secure. He was even able to read many of the reviews & testimonials about the company that he found online that made him feel very comfortable with his purchase. 7-10 days later the new engagement ring arrived at Freddy’s cottage door. After signing for the package that was delivered overnight free of charge, via fully insured FedEx delivery, he opened it up. Included inside was a beautiful ring box and a certified appraisal that was also included free of charge. He wasted no time and immediately planned a romantic getaway with Princess.

Although the fairytale story called Freddy’s Diamond started out as a sad one, you will be happy to learn that Princess said yes when Freddy proposed and they lived happily ever after.

Purchasing Diamonds & Engagement Rings Online

Over the years we have answered numerous questions from customers about purchasing their diamonds and engagement rings online. It seems that most people are very interested in the idea of buying diamonds or engagement rings online for a couple of reasons. The main reason we hear is that our prices are dramatically less expensive than those of their local jewelry store. This is really not surprising when you consider why. The first reason why we are less expensive is low overhead. We do not have fancy jewelry stores that have a significant amount of overhead. Think about all of the expenses that jewelry stores have that we do not. Many jewelry stores may have only 1 or 2 locations. These stores can only sell to the local customer base, so they have to spend an enormous amount of money on advertising to convince the locals to buy from them instead of online. Typically they are not selling their engagement rings worldwide like we are, and in many cases they may not even have a website to display their diamond rings. At Engagement Rings By Secret Diamond, we do not spend a single penny on advertising, throughout most of the year. Lets say that a local jewelry store has an advertising budget of $50,000. (Not really that much) Just imagine how many diamonds or engagement rings have to be sold, just to pay for that advertising. Again consider that they are more than likely, only selling to their local customer base. I think you would be surprised to hear how few engagement rings some jewelry stores actually sell. That advertising expense is added to the cost of your diamond engagement ring.

The second reason why we are much less expensive is because we work directly with the diamond importers, right at the source. Unlike your typical jewelry store that has maybe 3-4 companies that mark-up the diamond before it gets to them, with Engagement Rings By Secret Diamond you are buying a diamond that has the fewest number of companies marking up the diamond before it gets to you possible! Fewer companies marking up the diamond, means a lower cost to you. Now when you have sold as many diamond engagement rings online worldwide as we have, you have a very large base of happy customers. Just read our testimonials page located at the link below to see what our satisfied customers have to say about our Engagement Rings Store. Also please feel free to visit our Better Business Bureau page to see that we are a proud member of the BBB online, and in excellent standing.

Again this means lower prices to you. Why? Because we receive many sales referred to us by other satisfied customers. Customers that refer us to their family members, co-workers and best friends. In business they say that the best form of advertising is "Word of Mouth" advertising. When we sell an engagement ring to someone that is referred to us by our happy customers, that sale cost us nothing in advertising dollars. That means that we do not have to "Add The Cost Of Advertising" to the price of our engagement rings, which means additional savings to you, our future customer.

We want you to know that at Engagement Rings By Secret Diamond, we take "Word of Mouth" advertising very seriously. We are very proud of our commitment to our customers (Past, Present and Future Customers) And we want you to know that we will work very hard to earn your trust, and to make you our next satisfied customer. We want to earn YOUR future business, as well as all of the future business you refer to us including YOUR family members, co-workers and friends.

I think it is important to note that this is not an article meant to criticize your local jewelry store. Everyone I know would like to spend their money in a local community business, including us at Secret Diamond. Also, a jewelry store can add a certain value to your engagement ring buying experience. You will actually be able to see, touch, feel and try on the engagement ring before you buy it. And it will most likely be easier to have your engagement ring worked on for routine maintenance, or cleanings without having to ship it back to us. However if you are working with a limited budget, or you have the money & you just don’t want to pay a lot more than you have to, buying diamonds or engagement rings from our online store is without a doubt, the best way to save.
