BLUE NILE VS JAMES ALLEN: Best Online Engagement Rings & Diamond Store, Reputable Retailer Jewelers 

UPDATE: James Allen has now digitally posted most if not all of their GIA certificates. YAY

To the person reading I pray your marriage last forever in Jesus name.

Currently trying to decide between the two for my gfs engagement ring. This for sure helps for someone like me who has no clue about jewelry…thanks!

Great informative video!! Thank you for only stating facts and screen shots!!!

Thanks for this awesome video

Great Video, Thank you

James Allen has most of the GIA reports available now on the site without needing to speak with CS now..... I've been on their site religiously for the past 2 weeks lol

I prefer James Allen too. I can choose more designs .and I noticed Blue Nile is more expensive even Lab Diamonds.

Very Informative!

Thank you very much for that video, it was very helpful for us!

Lab diamonds are amazing idk what you’re on about

lab grown ftw

Blue Nile was a disruptor when it started, but it is no longer the best in technology, customer service, price, or selection. James Allen (also owned by Signet) is ahead of BN for technology, customer service and selection. JA pioneered the 360 view, which is used by online retailers today. For diamonds, both BN and JA mark up their prices quite a lot, which is why they blank out the GIA report numbers to minimize price matching. The settings from JA are more extensive and customizable. There's a reason why BN has been losing market share and had to be acquired at a much lower price after a failed IPO attempt. While GIA and IGI certifications vary more for mined diamonds, the gap between GIA and IGI certifications is very narrow for lab grown diamonds. Some IGI-certified lab grown diamonds have an additional Hearts & Arrows classification on the certificate. Though rare, these diamonds are better than equivalent GIA-certified lab grown diamonds.

I've been shopping on JA AND has the certs on line.

Hi what do you think of With Clarity?

I love Blue Nile. I wish I discovered them earlier. 💙💍💎

What you think about ags and whiteflash a cut above or black by brian gavin?

I got a 0.50 flawless diamond from blue Nile it’s lovely.

What’s your opinion on Stienhardt?

No sure what the point of this video is. If you are searching for a loose diamond with a given set of specifications, just visit the different sites and pick the one that suits you. It almost as if this video is suggesting that you only use one site? I don't really care who I purchase my diamond from as long as it comes with a GIA certificated.

Just to add AGS is a highly respected lab and their cut grading is the best, hence AGS0 Ideal. This lab is just as respected as GIA and their cut grading system is often preferred.

Every single lab diamond on Blue Nile's website has strong fluorescence. Try resetting all the filters and only changing the fluorescence filter to see what I mean.

Lab Diamonds are good to wear nowadays without fear of losing. But they can never compare to natural diamonds cuz still be detected by machine and no resale value.

Why not brilliance?

My blue Nile 15k diamond came with Gia lazer number on diamond and u can upgrade if you double the price of original diamond. Blue Nike has diamonds from all over the world :) I got my own setting that we loved
