The size of the diamond obviously falls on the amount of money you have to spend. For example, you could get a 1 carat diamond for $3,000, but it will more than likely be a yellowish color and probably have carbon spots in it. However, for the same $3,000 you could get a slightly less-in-size diamond which is near flawless (no discoloration, great cut, is clear and still resonably large)....and probably set in platinum.
I was in this perdicament when I bought my fiances ring. I chose to go with the second option: near flawless diamond (.68 carat) , set in platinum and reflects much light, rather than a large and gaudy yellow diamond. Don't forget, the larger the diamond you get, the more difficult it is to match a 'wrap' or a 'band' to it.
In a nutshell; quality over quantity, just like rush!
Good luck!
PS, I also bought mine from Kay's and DO NOT BE AFRAID TO BARGAIN with them, I talked them down over $1,000.....they're salespeople, if they want your business, they'll meet your budget.
